this is an experiment for disney ina number of different ways.he streaming service, so what you're doing is, they are asking you to do is spend $30 in the united states, i believe it is a little bit cheaper in parts of europe, $30 to rent the movie. then, in order to keep that movie for the next few months until it becomes free to all disney plus subscribers, you have to continue paying $6. 99 a month, or whatever it is in your territory. so what they're asking you to do is essentially not cancel your subscription service, and keep that as a storage facility to watch your movie, on top of other things that are on disney plus. can this help build disney plus, one of the company's key streaming initiatives, key services, one of its only profitable sectors right now, while also making money? and the other thing to mention that kind of gets lost is, this is a disney plus exclusive in territories where disney plus exists — about 18 or 19, it's quite a few — but this movie, mulan specifically, was always meant to play better in china where it will rece

specifically, disney's own streaming service, disney's own streaming service, disney plus.0, a move that disney hopes will pay off. the big question is can a $200 million blockbuster film like mulan perform as much for them ona mulan perform as much for them on a strictly premium video on demand streaming service then it would theatrically. that is the question people opposing and not necessarily the correct question. this is it an experiment for disney in a number of ways. the companies looking to do really is building its streaming service. while mulan will get a big cinema release in china, when coronavirus restrictions at ease, those seeking a more experience have a different option with christopher nolan ‘s complex sci—fi blockbuster making its premiere in the us after finding success elsewhere. i feel great that people outside of america feel safe and support film industry and love the movie theatre experience which is great to me which is why i got into the business because i love movies andl business because i love movies and i love the movie theatre experience. it'

did disney need to thank those government entities from xinjiang?> i think that the question was diden disney need to fillon john. the other question is why did iley decide to release the of these scenes? one thing they articulated is that the film was shot in a wide variety of differentti los. as the human rights abuses became worse, they decided to continue with it. it draws into real question the corporate leadership. katty: do you think that having seen what has happened to disney and their ," other companies might reassess, american companies mightho reassesthey do business with china? or t do you thiy will just reassess how they cover their tracks more effectively than disney has done? >> i think that probably both things will be happening. wee already seen dreamworks pulled out of the joint venture, orieal dreamworks, inhe chinese market. weave seen u.s. companies reassess their strategy. disney has a lotore skin in the game in the sense that in addition to the film release, they have massive investments in china. they have a lot more to lose

directed by niki caro, best known for the 2002 film whale rider, this live—action remake of disney'sa woman. unlike such recent house of mouse remakes like beauty and the beast, this new mulan isn't a musical — although music plays a key role — nor does it feature a talking dragon. it is my duty to fight for the kingdom. instead, it's a sumptuously attired coming—of—age adventure with martial arts action and much splendidly cinematic scenery. but you can't help wishing you were watching at a big screen. still, unlike so many disney reboots, mulan is very much its own film, looking back to the chinese folk story which inspired the original animation and taking it in a direction that's different enough to justify its existence. whether this straight—to—home viewing release can also justify its cost, reported to be around $200 million, remains to be seen. at the other end of the financial spectrum, socrates, which was made for under $20,000, is a striking brazilian feature about a 15—year—old isolated by his sexuality and facing destitution following the death of his mother. playing in

with an all chinese cast but tripping up for cozying up to beijing how big a problem is this for disney. a pretty big problem actually i mean hollywood the big studios at least have an issue with china they're desperate to get into the chinese market it's a huge market they need it to really make their film successful but the chinese government deterrent determines what films get in so hollywood's really bending over backwards and has been for years to do everything it can not to offend china and disney with thought to have the ideal type of film a chinese story with an all chinese cast ideal for the for the chinese market but because they shot in this area of china where alleged these these persecutions are taking place it's really put them in a in a bad light i'm not sure if it's actually going to hurt the film itself commercially but it definitely has hurt the image that disney has because no one wants to see what kind of an impact this controversy has had thanks very much for joining in tuning into i think and god will see you tomorrow scott roxboro in venice well next up we go back

to put it into context, disney has approximately 200,000-plus employees.d, that includes animal kingdom, magic kingdom, et cetera that is about 77,000 people. disneyland is about 35,000 people while disney world has reopened with limited capacity, disneyland here in california is still shut per the requirements of the california government so it seems like all of these layoffs being at the parks really reflects this limited capacity we're talking about 28,000 employees among the 220,000 roughly of employees at disney i am going to be looking for more specific details about how many people are currently employed one other thing to note there is that the company had furloughed approximately 100,000 employees, really focused on that parks division back in april this is something that they've been leading up to for a while of course, they hoped the parks would be able to fully reopen by now. >> mike santoli, sometimes stocks get rewarded for major cost cuts like this. it's interesting to see disney's stock runder pressure maybe it's such a wow number that some

disney has a lot of explaining to do. robin, this isn't the first time this movie has come under pressure. it's been mired in controversy for more than a year. the lead actress made comments where she was supporting the hong kong police during the protests. that led to widespread sharing on social media of #boycottmulan and we're continuing to see disney under this type of pressure. it isn't clear at this point what the relationship actually is between disney and the shengjung region. >> good to speak to you. thank you so much. >>> so russian opposition leader is out of his medicated induced coma. doctors say it's too early to get any potential long-term effects. matthew johns joins us from moscow to get all of that. matthew? >> reporter: robin, thanks very much. there's good news in the past 24 hours or so from the clinic in berlin where alexey navalny is being treated for the poisoning he's in. he's out of his medically induced coma. he's being weaned off of a ventilator to make sure he can breathe properly. we're told

so then maybe you seek this respite and you describe to disney plus, disney streaming service and you live action film "mulan," fun, nice, family-friendly. and maybe you stay for the credits. and you see disney thank the propaganda authorities of the ruling chinese communist party in xinjiang. not only did they film this in the epicenter where the u.s. state department estimates the chinese government has detained more than 2 million ethnic uighur in internment camps, but the u.s. government says they are subjecting uighur to cruel and inhumane treatment. not only did they film "mulan" there, disney also thanks a local police department in their credits, a police department that was sanctioned by the u.s. government for its role in running these concentration camps. now, disney's cfo says it's standard to, quote, acknowledge in the film's credits the national and local governments that allowed you to film there, unquote. really? how standard is it to film in an area where the local government has concentration camps and is being accused of genocide? i guess we should be happy no parts

because we have disney has been quite disney which is been quite vocal with black lives matter and we the us debate, they're getting a lot of heat for not wanting to film in georgia because that states policy towards abortion and defective supporting a policy in xinjiang, which include huge amounts of restrictive births, forced iuds, forced abortions in that region. that is why they call xinjiang a genocide today because the population has dropped, i think it is proper roughly 24% in 2019 which is proper roughly 24% in 2019 which is the legal definition of genocide, so disney is literally getting raked over the course for that, and hypocrisy is a big piece of it. do you think of my change because of this. we have other studios, with a change the way they do business or perhaps treat china because of the experience that disk is having? because there has been a huge social media backlash against disney because of this. i think the lesson studios are going to take is not that we should not partner with xinjiang would do things that are intensely problematic with the chinese communist par
