pookpooi is too excited for Nolan and Tenet it seems. I don't support WB and Nolan's decision to force a theatrical release for countries where its not safe yet. Also are theaters running in France? If the theaters are operational I'm sure Disney will release Mulan in theaters even if it's released on D+ simultaneously.
It's actually cinema that force itself upon Tenet release date, I just read this
Indiewire news, look like cinema make a promise to stockholder to open in time for Tenet, and stockholder will sue cinema if it breaks the promise. The one who has a power to open or close cinema is actually the authority/government/politician/regulator/etc. and the one who do the lobby job is cinema association, not the studio.
In my opinion, the area that is not safe should not open the cinema, but the safe area MUST NOT have to wait for other areas.
And yes, cinema is running in France, it even mentioned in the article, and look like Disney won't release Mulan in cinema if that area has D+, at least for now, but Disney could change the decision if many cinema owners get angry.
