It should have been released on Disney+, and Turning Red should have been released in theaters last summer.

That's what went wrong.

It was fine for a streaming movie. Turning Red had hit written all over it.

Idk why Disney didn’t put turning red in theaters, especially after their first Asian led superhero movie did well, and then seeing how everything everywhere did… you know they’re kicking themselves for that decision

Wow didn’t know it didn’t come out in theaters. Not much of a theater goer and usually watch movies well after they were released. Someone recommended turning red and I thought it was awesome. Never would have guessed it didn’t have a theater release.

thats probably where being connected to toy story did them in. they banked on name recognition and they expected that name recognition to allow it to do well in theaters. turning red was a much better movie and in a world where there was no panini, it def wouldve done well at the box office. but they seemed spooked to put a new animated ip in theaters due to the panini so it is what it is
