Official Black Widow Thread

Another release date change, this time till next year. Guess we can dead any talk of Black Widow pulling a Mulan and coming to Disney+

While we already knew Marvel’s Black Widow was set to move, it’s by far the biggest shift on Disney’s theatrical calendar, going from Nov. 6 to May, 7 2021. That’s a complete annual delay of Black Widow from its original pre-pandemic release date of May 1 this year. Black Widow‘s shift kicks Marvel’s Eternals from Feb. 12, 2021 to Nov. 5, 2021; and moves Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings from May 7, 2021 to July 9, 2021 (a post Independence Day release date that Disney had already reserved for an untitled feature).

Surprised, but not surprised.

Makes me really wonder what's going to happen with the Falcon and Winter Soldier + series, since I think it'll probably have some tie-ins with Black Widow.

Yeah, I heard some people speculating that was part of the reason WandaVision was hitting Disney+ first (along with the Covid shooting issues.) Now with Black Widow pushed back so far, I'm not sure they would wait that long to release it after.

Man I took my AMC stubs off suspension and alll these movies still getting pushed, I'm finna cancel

So 2009 & 2020 are the only years that an MCU film has not dropped in theaters since it's inception in 2008.

I don't know if it means Mulan failed. I think there's more riding on Black Widow to make a certain amount of money and it's targeting a different audience. Mulan is a purely family film; that's the thing an adult watches with the little ones. Black Widow isn't R rated of course, but it's also not aiming for the exact same audience. And I'm sure there's more marketing and licensing tied up into the flick, so there's a lot of people who want that ROI for their cash. Putting that shyt on Disney + and not getting a WW release lessens that ROI.

Mulan drops damn near $300mil and Disney takes that as a sign to push all it’s Marvel movies back...

Why do you think they make movies? For your money or enjoyment?

Did you miss where I said Mulan just dropped almost 300 million....

That was deemed inadequate by those fronting the money. Your opinion on what the acceptable ROI is not relevant.

nope, that was ducktales breh

Flopped in the theaters and didn’t make a big enough splash on Disney+ to break even.
The Failure of "Mulan" Is More Bad News for Hollywood

yahoo had misinterpreted numbers from an analytics firm that estimated Mulan’s viewership, and the firm’s co-founder clarified that grosses were more likely $60 million to $90 million—well below the movie’s reported budget of $200 million.

Inadequate?? It was all profits.

Black Widow would make twice that
