Disney's "Onward" Flop Is Just the Beginning
It will be weeks and possibly months before a rival studio knocks Disney's (NYSE: DIS) Onward from the top of the box office, but that isn't a compliment. Movie theaters across the country closed down early last week, cementing Onward on top after a pair of lackluster weekends where it reigned supreme at the top facing uninspiring competition.
Onward is unlikely to come back to the local multiplex when theater chains fire up their projectors again. Like other studios, Disney has taken the bold step to push the film into retail digital distribution. It's available for purchase across all of the leading online marketplaces for $19.99, and two weeks from now it will be available to stream for Disney+ subscribers.
