Reports indicated that the move was costly for the studios, who spent months promoting and marketing the film which was supposed to be released this month. Initially, it was only canceled in China due to the coronavirus first starting there.
However, once the coronavirus began spreading to other countries, including the United States, the studios announced they would be canceling its release. The world has seen the cancelation of many festivals and movie premieres, including Coachella and South By Southwest Film Festival.
Furthermore, the president of the Cannes Film Festival announced they were considering postponing the prestigious event earlier this year if the pandemic didn’t ease up, but it wasn’t long before the organizers confirmed it would be pushed back as well.
Spike Lee, who will act as the very first African-American to lead the Cannes Film Festival jury, confirmed with a media outlet that the festival was postponed and said he was supportive of the organizers’ decisions. Yesterday, Justin Bieber, as well, released a statement claiming he would be moving his Changes Tour too.
