Are you a fan of the anime series "Hotel Transylvania"?
Anyone who wanted to experience the fourth part in the cinema must be disappointed: Amazon has now secured the rights.
It was planned that “Hotel Transylvania 4 - A Monster Metamorphosis” will hit the cinemas in October 2021.
But an Amazon-Sony deal has now canceled the cinema premiere.
The animated film * will now run exclusively with a subscription to Amazon Prime Video on January 14, 2022, as reported by the portal
golem.de
.
One reason for this step could be the cinema flop in production that is threatening due to the corona pandemic.
Hotel Transylvania 4 is aimed primarily at families with daycare and elementary school children for whom there is no official vaccination recommendation.
Many families could therefore currently refrain from going to the cinema, so a possible assumption of the filmmakers.
