It doesn’t take long for Disney theatrical releases to arrive on Disney Plus. For example, Eternals It took about two months from the time it was released in theaters until it appeared on the streaming platform. However, with Spider-Man the same story will not repeat itself. The threads that connect Stan Lee’s superhero with Sony will prevent us from watching the movie comfortably at home with our Disney + account.
No Way Home will arrive as video on demand
if you want to see again Spider-Man: No Way Home or if you missed it in theaters, it won’t be as easy as waiting to see it on Disney Plus. What was the highest grossing production of 2021 can be seen from home starting next March 22, but not as we all hope. It will be available only on demand, that is, you will have to make a payment for viewing. According to Business Insider, the chosen platforms are Amazon Prime Video, Google Play, Apple TV and Vudu for the moment, although we will have to wait for that date to see which services are chosen to launch the film in our country.
We also do not know the rental prices of the film on demand in our country, but in the United States, it is estimated that it will be 20 dollars. Having such a high price, it will almost be a little more logical to get the film in physical format, which will be released a little later, specifically, on April 12, with Blu-Ray 4K formats and a collector’s edition that, without doubt, it will be better than paying for a single viewing.
Why won’t No Way Home be on Netflix or Disney+?
Spider-Man’s past is one of the great thorns that Disney has nailed since it took over Marvel. This problem dates back to the 1990s, when Marvel, in difficult financial conditions, decided to sell the film rights of his best superheroes.
Over the years, the situation has been reversed for many of the superheroes, but not with Spider-Man, who remains under the umbrella of SonyPictures. In fact, movies like No Way Home (or the entire Tom Holland trilogy) have meant that Sony and Disney agreed to bring the superhero to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a decision that has benefited both parties, since No Way Home It is without a doubt one of the best superhero movies ever made. More, considering the madness of bringing us the Spider-Man from the rest of the productions with the excuse of the multiverse. A really fantastic idea that has filled Holland’s latest Spider-Man movie with a special aura.
Even so, Sony wants to continue making its investment profitable. The company’s initial plans are to exploit the film as video on demand. In addition, the studio has signed a 6 month deal with Starz, which will be the streaming service that is likely to offer the movie at a lower price. After that time, It is expected that No Way Home ended up on netflixand possibly also on Disney +, although it is not entirely certain.
