I believe Baron and Kimarhi are over the target here.
We need to remember in regards to the current slate of projects, Disney sent over Alan Horn and Alan Bergman to 20th Century to "work" with Emma Watts and help her retool, cut most of the projects in development and reportedly streamline to 10 releases per year, half or more going to Hulu or Disney+. Now maybe this micromanaging hasn't/won't continue with Watts out, maybe it will, but that action most certainly affected these current projects which were further delayed by covid.
