Wonder Woman 1984 postponed due to virus
The superhero movie - starring Israeli actress Gal Gadot - had been scheduled to arrive on screens in June, but will be pushed back until mid-August
Wonder Woman 1984 has become the latest film to have its release date postponed due to the coronavirus outbreak.
The superhero movie – starring Israeli actress Gal Gadot in the titular role – had been scheduled to arrive on screens in June.
Instead, it will be released on August 14, Warner Bros said.
Responding to the news, Gadot said: “In these dark and scary times, I am looking forward to a brighter future ahead. Where we can share the power of cinema together again.
“Excited to redate our WW84 film to August 14, 2020. I hope everyone is safe. Sending my love to you all.”
This comes after Gadot led a star-studded cover of John Lennon’s Imagine as celebrities including Natalie Portman and Jamie Dornan attempted to lift spirits amid the coronavirus outbreak.
The delays comes as Hollywood continues to adjust to the disruption caused by the pandemic, with billions of dollars set to be lost.
Major films to be postponed include James Bond flick No Time To Die and Disney blockbusters Mulan and Black Widow.
