“Soul” Skipping Theaters

  • As the coronavirus pandemic continues to wreak havoc on the box office, Disney has announced it’s upcoming Pixar movie “Soul” will skip theaters and debut on Disney Plus instead.

  • The announcement marks the second time the film’s scheduled debut has been scrubbed, after studio officials originally pushed back its opening from June to November due to the pandemic.
  • Unlike “Mulan,” for which Disney Plus viewers paid $30 to watch, “Soul” will be available for no additional charge, says Disney CEO Bob Chapek. It’s set to debut on Christmas Day.
