Piracy was an issue for movies that debuted in theaters and on streaming services in 2021, but studios have largely moved away from that strategy.

The data company Parrot Analytics wrote in a new Q1 streaming report that Netflix should "refocus" its original content strategy.

There are no immediate plans for "Star Wars" movies from Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige or "Knives Out" director Rian Johnson.

Netflix has long resisted longer windows for its theatrically released movies, but that could be changing, according to a Bloomberg report.

"Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness" dropped 67.5% at the US box office over the weekend, in line with "No Way Home."

The "Fast and Furious" franchise has ballooned into a global phenomenon, with two entries earning more than $1 billion worldwide.

MCU movies have benefited greatly from the China box office, but the "Doctor Strange" sequel is the fifth entry in a row to not be released there.

Studios like Warner Bros. released their biggest movies simultaneously in theaters and on streaming services last year, but are shifting strategies.

Disney+'s latest Marvel series, "Moon Knight," entered the demand rankings last month after debuting in late March.

Theatrical leaders are also hoping movies like "Lightyear," "Top Gun: Maverick," and "Avatar: The Way of Water" will help revitalize the industry.
