Tenet Delayed Indefinitely, what does this mean for the future of cinema
Tenet could be released in The United Kingdom First
The main reason Tenet has been delayed is that Covid 19 has hit America much worse then most countries meaning Cinemas are pretty much still closed, meaning Tenet wouldn't be seen as a financial success. There are reports that this film could be released first in The UK as cinemas are back open here to at least allow some people to see it, however, I am not convinced by this. With the age of the internet, people will spoil the movie which will infuriate people in the US and stop them from seeing it eventually which will hurt the film long term.
There might be no big cinema release for 2020
This is something I have been thinking for a bit now and with Tenet being delayed, I am not convinced that we will see a new film release for the rest of 2020. With America not seeing to get better, Hollywood are not going to risk finances by releasing films that people can't see or won't see.
2021 could be the biggest year for film in a long time
Trying to spin this into a positive is that even though 2020 will be a poor year for film, 2021 could be a huge year for film. The majority of blockbusters haven't hit the cinema yet this year and if they get delayed to 2021 then there will be a blockbuster every week it will feel like. As long as the pandemic calms down by then film fans could be in for a real treat next year.
