Walt Disney Co. said Friday that the remainder of its films set to be released this year—such as “Encanto” and “West Side Story”—will be shown exclusively in theaters first.
The move comes after Disney’s latest box-office success with the Marvel film “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings,” which was released only in theaters. The film broke records for the highest-grossing film for the four-day Labor Day weekend. On Tuesday, Disney said the film had brought in $132.3 million.
