MGM was the distributor at least back in 2018 - they made the new 4K master that was also the basis for the recent Criterion disc.
But Fox releases are available in 4K.Which makes it all the more confusing as to who owns what - we know Disney doesn't release 4K on iTunes yet it's on Disney+...

I was responding to Disney titles not being 4K on Apple TV, yet Fox are.At the time I posted that yesterday we didn't know the movie was Fox, we thought it was MGM...
["Princess Bride"] was financed independently, so it's possible the streaming rights were negotiated separately from the home video rights.
For fans of the 70mm Fox films, it looks like Hello Dolly! will be added to the service on May 22nd (no idea if it’s in 4K or not yet).

That stands to reason. The iTunes version starts with the MGM Lion. The Disney+ version with 20th Century Fox logo. That also explains why Disney+ doesn't have the 4K version because that restoration was paid for by MGM (and possibly Criterion who licensed it from MGM).What I read was that all rights to the film EXCEPT Home Video reside with Fox. Home video rights still belong to MGM. I'm guessing Disney+ isn't considered home video.

Thank you!The play features numerous swear words, which seem a likely target for edits on the Disney+ platform.
