Hamilton coming to Disney+ July 3rd
- Thread starter KoolAid
- Start date
A press release confirmed that it'll be released worldwide on Disney+:
They're desperate for money and content. I would have preferred Mulan. But I haven't watched the service in months, so I'm in for this.
Took me two years of playing the Hamilton lottery to see it.
You're going to love it. Everything people have said about it, is true.
I have no problem re-subing for a month to watch this. I am truly excited to finally see it (love the soundtrack).
The cost of one month's subscription to Disney+ is less than what it would likely cost to buy a ticket to see in theatres.
Lin Manuel Miranda said it would probably mute the fucks but no footage will be cut when discussing the planned theatrical version. I'm sure it's the same for Disney +.
Nice find, thanks. Seems fair to me. Plus the soundtrack has been out for some time so can always get that.
Far and away the highest quality thing that will be on D+.
For a service that lacks very much good quality content, this is tempting me to sub for 1 month just to watch this before letting it lapse again.

That's a massive move from them.
That movie (when originally planned for theatrical release) was going to make a ton of money for them.
it's interesting that they moved it up. I wonder if they are getting ready to push more dates, or just want to keep the momentum going from all the new subs they have.
Also, really curious on how much money money Disney had to pay to do this

isnt Oct 2021 for a theatrical version of Hamilton, an actual MOVIE. This is just a recording of the stage show. Two different things.
keep in mind the stage performance isn't making any money right now either. Both parties have incentive to push the date up.
No the 2021 version was just a filmed show also. So I assume it's the same one
'Hamilton' is coming to movie theaters October 2021 and 'the box office potential is massive'
A filmed version of the Tony Award-winning musical "Hamilton" will arrive on the big screen in 2021, creator and star Lin-Manuel Miranda announced.
I definitely would have preferred to see this in a cinema first with an awesome sound system and the diminishing effect of the screen enhancing the experience, or at least the Australian production of it that was scheduled to open next year... if this is what we're getting though, I'll take it.
No, Disney paid for a theatrical recording with the original cast that was supposed to be released October 2021. They're moving it forward by over a year. There are no plans for a Hamilton movie by anyone. This story, among others, makes that clear.

huh, why would a pre tapped show take two years to come out? Very weird.
Are you familiar with 'The Imagineering Story' on Disney+?
Because they were going to have another national tour this year and didn't want the theatrical release to interfere with that.
Contracts, to not eat revenue from the existing stage productions that are mounted, and marketing... sweet, sweet marketing. It's what turns it from a film, into an event.

Wow that's pretty big. They're leaving a ton of money on the table by skipping a theatrical release.
I saw it on Broadway a couple years ago, albeit not with the original cast (though the performers they had were all really good). Great show that I never expected to see again anytime soon given the cost of tickets, lol. Glad this is happening so soon.

I was supposed to see it the weekend the shelter in place went into effect in SF, for the first time, so this is very welcomed news
Surprised at the comments about how expensive this is supposedly. We saw it last year in Louisville and it wasn't really anymore expensive than other live shows we see (ballets and whatnot).
Sure, it's off Broadway with not the original cast, which I'm sure would be insanely expensive, but outside of that it's reasonable.

What a surprise! So excited for this. I've listened to it so many times without ever seeing the show. Can't wait!
