Tom Hanks has discussed the affect the coronavirus pandemic has had on release models for blockbuster films.

 

In a new interview, Hanks says that “a sea change was due” regarding a shift from traditional cinema releases to some streaming-first options, which have become more prominent due to cinema closures across 2020.

 

Speaking to Collider, Hanks said that the change “was coming” regardless, though stated his belief that cinemas will “absolutely” survive beyond the pandemic.

 

“In some ways, I think the exhibitors — once they’re up and open — are going to have the freedom of choice of what movies they’re going to play,” he added, while promoting new film News Of The World.
