I could see Warner making their films available PPV to the usual providers - Amazon, Sky Box Office, Virgin Media Store, etc.
As it stands, it's business as usual in global markets - so these films will release theatrically and go to Sky Cinema after 8 months or so as per the current output deal - remember this is a US strategy only.

Now if the WW84 speculation pans out and it gets an early window via PVOD or SVOD after a month, that could give us an idea of what a UK strategy could look like if there is one required but until then it seems like we get the likes of Godzilla Vs Kong in cinemas as normal.
