We’ll be frank; 2020 messed up a lot of our movie going plans. Disney has provided their best laid plans for 2021 and we’re keeping our finger crossed on the below list. Some are going directly to Disney+ and others are (hopefully) going to see a theatrical release. For many of these, there isn’t much information and some aren’t yet ready with promotional images, but we can dream. Right?
