2020 has well and truly interrupted the film release schedule but in a bid to combat the closure of cinemas around the globe, last week Disney announced it would move the hotly-anticipated Mulan adaption on to Disney+. Set to drop to selected regions from September 4, fans will be able to rent the film for $29.99 USD (or the rough cost of a cinema ticket). In the lead up, a new teaser has been released and provides a first look at the tales’ villains.
