Tom Hanks submarine drama Greyhound skips theaters to debut on Apple TV Plus

” following a bidding war for the movie, which was previously set for a Father’s Day theatrical release.

Six-month-old Apple TV Plus announced the deal Tuesday. The streaming service did not disclose when it will release “Greyhound.” Sony had originally scheduled “Greyhound” to be theatrically released in the U.S. on June 12 but the release was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. “Greyhound” is set in the early days of World War II as an international convoy of 37 Allied ships, led by Hanks’ Capt. Ernest Krause, crosses the treacherous North Atlantic while being hotly pursued by wolf packs of Nazi submarines.

The studio had announced in early March that the film has shifted its release date back five weeks from May 8 to June 12. in early March, opening with Hanks in prayer and about to set sail. He then reveals to his crew that this is his first crossing of the Atlantic. The crew also finds out they are entering territory where plane cover cannot reach them for five full days.

I don't like giving apple any of my $. They are greedy, overrated, overpriced and selfish. Ios i s 13% of the world phone market.

This is a stupid decision, and will lead to piracy tomhanks Why was this not put on a reputable streaming service like netflix , or AmazonAustralia , who support all platforms, not just 12% of the world market.

I wa as looking forward to this movie but I'm not creating another subscription to see it

Are you aware of this DavidLarter ?

Submarine drama? For some reason I was expecting him to be a bus driver or something.

torrent it is!

More people would see it in theaters during lockdown as opposed to apple TV 😂

Smart Move. Problem is Marvel has a business plan where their relying on one billion dollar box offices to pay for executive salaries and theme parks.Problem is Covid 19 lifestyle aint going to give you one billion dollar box offices anymore. Wake up and smell the coffee Marvel

GraceRandolph thoughts ?

VyceVictus Kind of sad because I feel this one would have really benefited from the theater sound.

Wow this is big

I wish people would realize not everyone is a blind sheep Apple user. Some of us actually use Androids.

I'm both sad and thrilled to hear this. Dying to see it since I saw the trailer, but realistically I'm not planning on going back to the cinema for a year...because I want to stay alive. So seeing this sooner will be a bonus. Yay: a new impending film to look forward to!!!

It looked like a direct-to-video movie anyway.

Will it be released on physical media such as Blu Ray or 4K?

Wow. This is huge.
