Is Disney Holding Back Tom Hardy’s Good Movie?

Although the story is quite intriguing, the impressive thing about this film is the ensemble cast. WithTom Hardy, Norman Reedus, and, Austin Butler alongside several others, the cast of the film is one of the primary reasons for the positive reviews. Since it has been over a year, there are reports that the film is“being shopped”and given to other distributors (which is a bad thing).
Disney hasn’t dropped the movie, it has a distribution deal with New Regency, but the film is still being shopped…https://t.co/EyyyhR8ojG

Well, it turns out that some fans were waiting for the release of the movie while others were expecting the movie to bomb. Taking to X, the people talked about how Disney might just be letting go of all the good movies!
Horribly disappointing. But would hope Warner Brothers or someone else would pick it up and make Disney as disappointed that they dropped it!!
