Scoob! to skip theatres, to be released on home video


Warner Bros Studio has announced that it would send its upcoming animated film “Scoob!” straight to premium on-demand as opposed to waiting for a theatrical release once the coronavirus threat subsides.

Based on Hanna-Barbera Productions Scooby-Doo franchise, the movie is a reboot, which voice stars Mark Wahlberg, Zac Efron among others.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the studio on Tuesday announced that “Scoob!” would be available both to rent and to buy in the home on May 15 for $19.99 and $24.99, respectively. The rental period is 48 hours.

Warner Bros chairman-CEO Ann Sarnoff said while the team wanted to go ahead with the release in theatres on May 15, these unprecedented times call for creative thinking and adaptability in content distribution.

“We know fans are eager to see Scoob! and were delighted we can deliver this feel-good movie for families to enjoy while they’re home together,” Sarnoff said.

However, she didn’t mention any plans for the film coming on their streaming service HBO Max, set to be launched on May 27.
