NBCUniversal is breaking theatrical release windows and releasing movies on-demand immediately, including ‘The Invisible Man’ and ‘Emma’
NBCUniversal is giving the middle-finger to theatrical release windows, at least for now. The studio is going to release new movies on-demand immediately, at least for the forseeable future. As well, already released movies such as Invisible Man and Emma will be made available this Friday.
