These Movies Have Been Delayed, and The Coronavirus Is To Blame

Earlier this year, we wrote an article where we talked about the movies we were most excited to see. What we didn’t know, however, was that the Coronavirus had other plans, such as forcing cinemas to close down following social distancing guidelines and causing film studios to delay and postpone their movie releases.

Here are some of the delayed movies and their new release dates:

A Quiet Place II (September 4th, 2020)

The sequel to the bone-chilling, highly acclaimed film ‘A Quiet Place’ was set to be released on the 8th of March but has been postponed to the 4th of September. The movie stars Emily Blunt, Millicent Simmonds, Noah Jupe and Cillian Murphy.
