LOL. Delayed again to August 12.

Christopher Nolan’s ‘Tenet’ Delays Release Date Again

Warner Bros. has again pushed back the release date for Christopher Nolan's "Tenet."

variety.com

That was quick lol. But with NYC’s theater opening no where in sight it makes sense.
I didn’t realize just this morning Cuomo said theaters won’t be in phase 4.

I do love the strategy of opening on a Wednesday though.

Honestly. I think Mulan will get delayed to February next year and take Shang-Chi's old release date of Feb 12th. And the MCU slate will get pushed back once more.

Guys, What'd I tell you before? Fear isn't how we get through this. Positivity is. When they tighten restrictions, people will start to listen. I'm still hoping for some delayed movies to be moved up. It's all in a state of flux, remember? IT doesn't last forever.

I admire your positivity but studios will not be moving any movies up if they already moved them to a later date. They do not want to stack big movies on top of competition. We are all going to have to wait patiently.

Promising test results encourage researchers to push vaccine trials back to August. @Darkprime, @Prince-1

Mulan delayed to August 21.

I know we all have to wait patiently. But I don't want 2021 to be so competitive. That's why I wanna see these movies sooner. Besides, Vaccine trials are starting next month.

Vaccine trials will not do anything to move movies back. Time to move on and accept it.

But there's more recovered cases than active ones now. And a lot of people in my super secret Facebook group are hoping for the film industry to move movies back. They want to see these movies sooner than expected just like me. You can live in fear all you want, but we're more hopeful.

We all hope you are right but I highly doubt it.

This is excellent news. I saw something about a COVID vaccine being ready for final testing, making it more safer to restart movie and TV productions.

Covid-19: The Moderna Vaccine Enters the Final Phase of Clinical Trials - Gilmore Health News

30,000 people are participating in Phase 3 of this COVID-19 clinical trial, which is being conducted by the biotech company Moderna.

www.gilmorehealth.com

So from what I can tell it seems like even if the final phase of clinical trials gets good results and the vaccine is approved by the end of the year. It wont be available till at least January at this earliest. This likely means that movies in the fall will have to be delayed one more time if the studios are basing their movements based on the development of the vaccine. Expect movies in the fall to be delayed to no earlier than spring next year. If the vaccine gets approved by the end of the year.

Again, movies that moved from 2020 will not be back this year no matter how much the OP wants to wish it to happen. This isn't being negative it's being realistic.

Just give me Bill and Ted Face the Music on streaming services at this point.

Obviously entirely different situations in China, South Korea and Taiwan right now vs USA. But people are certainly ready to get back to the theaters...

Christopher Nolan’s ‘Tenet’ Delays Early August Release Amid Ongoing Coronavirus Crisis

The Aug. 12 release of Christopher Nolan's 'Tenet' has been delayed due to the ongoing coronavirus crisis and a surge in cases in some parts of the United States, Warner Bros. announced Monday.

www.hollywoodreporter.com

Looks like Tenet could very well launch overseas first with a slow rollout in the USA.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Mulan open first in Asian and then a similar slow rollout in the USA.

 

[Darkprime]

Yep looks like Tenet is opening first internationally.

‘Tenet’ Tosses Playbook: Staggered Rollout May Be New Box Office “Normal”
