I do wonder how long Nine signed their Disney deal for? Stan obviously shorter than broadcast (as they knew Disney+ potential launch time a year out).
Assuming it’s around 3 years perhaps, using Seven’s ‘cherry pick deals’ in 2011 and again in 2013 with Sony as a precedent.
As this new NBCU output will be costing Nine a bucket load! Though doubtful anywhere near the quoted $200 million Hamish Turner told TVT they paid back in 1997 for their old WB exclusive output!
However the move may not have any immediate or even longer term impact in Australia. Hoodlum had renewed its first-look deal with ABC Studios International and Disney Media Distribution will handle sales of The Gloaming.
He’s not doing an American accent. It sounds like he is just doing his regular mangled accent.
In the trailer he says “my dad abandoned my mother and me when got a woman pregnant in America”. So that suggests his character could be Australian or possibly Irish/British.
Yes, we don’t know how old the sister will be on the show but the article says the two sisters are his “teenage half-sisters”. The actress Kayla Cromer is also 25 but Maeve Press is 15.
Strange that Stan has now added the 4 indiana jones movies. I thought these 4 movies would be on Disney+ since Disney nows owns lucusfilm and lucasfilm produced these movies
