Every Major Movie Delayed Until 2021 Due to Coronavirus Last updated on 01 April 2020 by Cooper Smith

As the spread of the coronavirus increases around the world, anyone can see the spreading impacts as well. Whether it's the impact on small businesses or industries in general, people are staying home and the world is trying to fight this thing. Cinema has been affected immensely. Today we're diving into every major blockbuster release date that's been delayed until 2021.

Movie Delays

Production on sets for TV shows and films have been suspended. And even release dates for 2020's biggest movies have been pushed back. Black Widow, Wonder Woman 1984, Mulan (2020), and A Quiet Place Part 2 are all on the list of delayed films. However, some studios have had to reschedule quite a bit, and move their projects all the way into 2021. Here is the list.

Uncharted

Uncharted is a video-game adaptation starring Tom Holland, and it is not immune to the coronavirus. The movie is supposed to be a prequel to the actual games. It was already going to come out in 2021, but now it has been pushed back by many months so it hits theatres way later that year.

Original Release Date: March 5, 2021

New Release Date: October 8, 2021

Fast and Furious 9

The ninth movie in the Fast and Furious was one of the first blockbusters to be postponed until 2021 due to COVID-19. They delayed F9 until almost an entire year after it was supposed to come out. That pushes F10 back, leaving it without a release date.

Original Release Date: May 22, 2020

New Release Date: April 2, 2021

Morbius

Jared Leto made the jump from DC to Marvel (or rather, Sony's Marvel) in this new upcoming movie, where he's set to play the well-known vampire comic book character. Morbius has now been delayed along with multiple other Sony projects, until next year. This is not good news for Venom 2.

Original Release Date: July 31, 2020

New Release Date: March 19, 2021

Peter Rabbit 2: The Runaway

What's interesting about the Peter Rabbit sequel is that it's already been delayed once, and postponed until August. This family flick will no doubt be a fun watch, however, the movie has been delayed even further now. (And by a bigger margin this time.)

Original Release Dates: April 3, 2020, and August 7, 2020

New Release Date: January 15, 2021

Ghostbusters: Afterlife

Sony's new Ghostbusters movie was supposed to be very faithful to the original, and they've only released a teaser trailer for it so far. This is the fourth Ghostbusters film in the franchise, and now fans will have to wait many more months to watch it.

Original Release Date: July 10, 2020

New Release Date: March 5, 2021

Mulan (2020), Black Widow, Minions 2, and more

There are multiple films with their new release dates to be determined. The studios are currently waiting to see how long this pandemic lasts to figure out when to schedule their projects appropriately. We could very likely see Mulan, Black Widow, New Mutants, Minions: The Rise of Gru, A Quiet Place Part 2, and others without release dates change to come out in 2021. There could also be a future postponing of Venom 2. Next year is going to be filled with all sorts of previously delayed movies. The list we've compiled today is just so far. Who knows what summer film delays still have yet to occur. 2021 will be packed. But that's not necessarily a bad thing.
