The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID–19) pandemic continues to significantly affect a number of industries across the globe, including film. Almost every upcoming major film originally scheduled to release over the next couple months has either been rescheduled or delayed indefinitely.
Here’s the breakdown of upcoming movies we’ve been excited for that have been delayed, and when, if announced, they will rerelease.
A Quiet Place Part II
Original release date: March 20
New release date: TBA
Mulan
Original release date: March 27
New release date: TBA
No Time to Die
Original release date: April 10
New release date: Nov. 25
Black Widow
Original release date: May 1
New release date: TBA
The New Mutants
Original release date: May 15
New release date: TBA
Fast & Furious 9
Original release date: May 22
New release date: April 2, 2021
It will be interesting to see how distributors such as Disney handle their films that have been delayed indefinitely. For example, Black Widow’s new release date may create a chain reaction causing all upcoming MCU projects (Disney+ shows included) release dates to be pushed.
Like most things happening right now, we’ll just have to wait and see.
Stay healthy and be safe.
