Disney has, outside of its biggest family &amp; Marvel hits, generally avoided physical media releases in recent years.<\/p>\n<p>Cregger himself has spoken about it before, saying he\u2019s tried his best to get some form of physical media release but has made no headway on it.<\/p>\n<p>Now, producer Roy Lee has reportedly revealed on a podcast (via <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/thehdroom\/status\/2005062727560003997\" rel=\"nofollow\">The HD Room<\/a>) that \u201cthey [the studio] told us they were doing Criterion, I don\u2019t know what\u2019s happening.\u201d It marks the first evidence of a potential physical media release for the film, though Criterion has yet to confirm it. <\/p>\n<p>The film follows a woman (Georgina Campbell) who rents a house on Airbnb, only to find the house has been double-booked and is occupied by a man named Keith (Bill Skarsgard).
