Ghost in the Shell will not be distributed by Disney but instead Universal for the United States distributor and Paramount internationally. The biggest benefit for Universal is that if they buy these companies out which they have the option to do so, Universal will own international rights to the entire Criterion Collection. Reliance Entertainment films will be at their disposal and they will have their own oscar winning division finally with Participant media.
Ghost in the Shell is a film based of an anime under Dreamworks.
