When it comes to Pixar’s newest movie, Luca, there’s an understandable (and desirable) appeal in putting it out during the balmy summer season.
But 2021 is uncertain in nearly every respect, and there are no guarantees that this summer will be back to normal.
The warm oceanside movie fits this breezy season quite perfectly; in a normal year, it would be a no-brainer to release this movie during the crowded mid-year season.
Currently, the animated movie is slated to arrive only in theaters, though Pixar might later pursue the Disney+ option — as they did with Soul.
