July 28 (UPI) — AMC Theaters and Universal Pictures reached a deal allowing the studio’s films to become available on demand 17 days after they premiere in theaters, the companies announced Tuesday.
The announcement represents a reconciliation between the theater chain and the studio after discord earlier this year over the on-demand release of Trolls World Tour.
After Universal released the film on video-on-demand shortly after its theatrical debut and announced plans to do the same for The King of Staten Island, AMC CEO Adam Aron announced the theater chain would not play subsequent Universal films.
