Home media

In April 2021, Sony signed deals with Netflix and Disney for the rights to their 2022 to 2026 film slate, following the films' theatrical and home media windows. [3] [4] Netflix signed for exclusive "pay 1 window" streaming rights, which is typically an 18-month window and included Goat and other future Sony Pictures Animation films; this deal built on an existing output deal that Netflix had signed with Sony Pictures Animation in 2014. [3] [5] Disney signed for "pay 2 window" rights for the films, which would be streamed on Disney+ and Hulu as well as broadcast on Disney's linear television networks. [4] [6]
