James Bond 007: No Time To Die Delayed To November, 2020 Due To Coronavirus

YouTube may be going out of its way to demonetize anyone who mentions coronavirus, but Corona-chan doesn’t care about demonetization, censorship or Big Tech’s schlong of speech stifling. In light of the contagion’s seemingly unstoppable spread in recent times (due in great part to the media’s misinformation and governments’ slow reaction to the virus due to said misinformation) major media properties are being affected, the latest being MGM’s James Bond 007: No Time To Die.

According to Deadline, MGM has delayed the action flick by seven months to a fall release, specifically November 25th, 2020.

The article notes that originally No Time To Die was set to release on April 2nd in the U.K., and April 10th in the U.S.

In a statement to Deadline, it was stated…

“MGM, Universal and Bond producers, Michael G Wilson and Barbara Broccoli, announced today that after careful consideration and thorough evaluation of the global theatrical marketplace, the release of No Time to Die will be postponed until November 2020. The film will be released in the U.K. on November 12, 2020 with worldwide release dates to follow, including the U.S. launch on November 25, 2020”

Deadline states that the studios are less worried about the dangers of the coronavirus and more-so fearful about the economic impact the coronavirus is wreaking on key territories where they need the movie to perform well enough to be profitable.

They’re hoping that by November the spread of the virus will have died down and territories like China will be open for business again.

For those of you who don’t know, No Time To Die’s premiere in China had to be cancelled due to the coronavirus.

The one thing that might be funny is if November comes around and Corona-chan is still infecting the hearts and minds of people the world around. Will they just release the film and suffer a box office bomb or will they delay it even further all while losing money for each and every quarter the film doesn’t drop?

It’s probably a glorious time for real fans of James Bond because this woke adaptation is now getting its just desserts thanks to some cosmic karma that the agitators and propagandists probably didn’t see coming.
