Regal Cinemas owner Cineworld says it is considering temporarily closing its theaters. CNN reports the news comes just a day after the latest James Bond film, "No Time to Die," was delayed until the spring of 2021. More than a dozen major films have either been delayed or skipped theaters altogether and gone digital, as in the case of Disney's 'Mulan.' Last month, Cineworld reported a loss of $1.6 billion in the first half of 2020 as revenue plunged by 67%. A spokesperson said Cineworld would update staff and customers on its decision 'as soon as we can.' It also warned of the need to raise more funds in case a second wave of coronavirus leads to more 'prolonged' shutdowns.
The film was initially due to be released in April 2020 but has suffered multiple delays because of the pandemic.
With a guest list made up of Oscar winners and British royalty, James Bond film "No Time To Die" finally held its delayed world premiere in London on Tuesday (September 28) in the city's most high profile red carpet since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Fans of 007 have been waiting since last April to see the 25th James Bond film. The release of "No Time to Die" and Daniel Craig's last mission keeps being delayed because of Covid-19 and cinema closures. Not to fret though, as we have a brilliant new secret agent book to recommend for you: "The Spy Who Inspired Me" from best-selling British author Stephen Clarke.
There are few casting decisions as hotly anticipated as the question of who will be the next 007, with many expecting that a black Bond or even female Bond is on the cards. Londoners discuss whether they think a woman should play the role, ahead of the much-delayed world premiere of the latest James Bond film, "No Time To Die", in the British capital. Daniel Craig has already weighed in on the matter, saying in an interview: "Why should a woman play James Bond when there should be a part just as good as James Bond, but for a woman?"
'A Quiet Place Part II' will now be released in September, having had its initial March release pushed back due to the coronavirus outbreak.
'Black Widow' has become the latest film to be delayed as a result of the coronavirus pandemic.
The release of 'Peter Rabbit 2' has been pushed back to August due to the coronavirus epidemic.
