More Details
Upon its theatrical premiere, Joe did not have a streaming partner earlier. The big OTT companies are being very careful about collaborating with movies before they hit theatres, which is making it harder for smaller-budget films to get through.
Nelson and Lokesh Kanagaraj, two of the most prominent figures in Tamil cinema, gave their enthusiastic endorsements to the film before its November 24 release. Joe’s streaming rights were purchased by Disney Plus Hotstar only after great reviews from the critics and viewers.
