Sorry, no
worms in 2020…
Another day, another delay. Dune is the latest
addition in the list of movies which got delayed for a release in 2021,
including Black Widow and No time to Die.
Dune’s release date has changed and the movie is now scheduled to release on October 1st,
2021, almost a year’s delay after the initial December 18th release
date.
The delay decision was made after Regal and Cineworld
announced that it would be closing down all of its cinemas in the US and the
UK, after the delay of No Time to Die
last week.
Their decision is quite justified, as many movies
are pushed back to 2021 due to the pandemic. There’s no point of opening the
cinemas as there isn’t much content to display in the theatres right now.
Somewhere deep down in our heart, we all knew that
the much-anticipated movie Dune would
also be delayed like any other movie, as studios are still figuring out the
right time to debut their biggest movies.
But, you know what? Warner Bros’ major 2020 film
Robert Pattinson’s The Batman is
already slated for the same day release on 1st October. It indicates that one
of the two Warner Bros’ blockbusters will again shift to another release date.
Maybe an earlier one, who knows.
After learning from the consequences of
Christopher Nolan’s Tenet, every
filmmaker is hesitant to release their movies in this raging year 2020. It’s
fair to say that 2020 struck a major blow at the film studios. Hopefully, 2021
will be a much better year for both movie junkies and the filmmakers.
