Theater owners will still play ‘Halloween Ends’ even with Peacock release

In life and in fiction there are several things you cannot kill. COVID-19 is still with us, Michael Myers will continue on after Halloween Ends, and, now, the hybrid-release (eg in theaters and streaming) strategy which recently hit this series seems to have been added to this long list.

For those who have suppressed memories of the earlier days of the pandemic, releasing movies on streaming and in theaters was a way for studios to still make some money while allowing for people to be safe at home if they were not comfortable venturing out. This strategy was used for Halloween Kills on Peacock, will be used for Halloween Ends as Jamie Lee Curtis recently announced, and, while theater owners normally do not like this, a new article in The Hollywood Reporter suggests all is well in Haddonfield.
