Warner Bros. to release BIRDS OF PREY early on digital platforms

A new report from Fandango suggests that another film is coming home early on digital platforms in the wake of Coronavirus. According to Fandango (tweet below), Warner Bros. has confirmed that it is moving up plans to release Birds of Prey.

The film had originally been sent for a digital release in April but will now instead drop on 24 March. No word yet on if this will be global release or just North America.

The news comes in the wake of Disney making Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker widely available across the US in a bid to capture those self-isolating in the wake of distancing measures to combat the spread of the virus.

Birds of Prey (And The Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn) stars Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Mary Elizabeth Winstead as Huntress, Jurnee Smollett-Bell as Black Canary and Rosie Perez as Renee Montoya. The movie will be directed by Cathy Yan and arrives in cinemas on February 7, 2020.
