The coronavirus has gone too far this time.
When it made visiting a friend illegal, we complained, but we let it go.
When it took away our ability to jet off to foreign lands for a relaxing holiday, we let it go.
Even when it temporarily took away bubble tea and McDonald’s, the two things that Singaporeans need to survive in addition to oxygen, we let it go.
But this… this is just cruel.
Brutal.
Heinous.
Some – and I don’t think I’m exaggerating when I say this – would call it the biggest tragedy of the 21st century.
Movie lovers had one thing to look forward to after Covid-19 emerged and kept everyone in their homes, but now, that has been taken away too.
Highly Anticipated Movie Tenet Won’t be Released Next Month; It’ll Be Delayed ‘Indefinitely’
It is with great sorrow and a heavy heart that I announce that Christopher Nolan’s highly anticipated film Tenet will be delayed indefinitely.
Warner Bros studio chairman Toby Emmerlich explained that the film was delayed due to, well, what else would it be?
“Unfortunately, the pandemic continues to proliferate, causing us to reevaluate our release dates,” he said.
“Amidst all this continued uncertainty, we have decided to vacate the current dates for our next two releases. We will share a new 2020 release date imminently for Tenet.”
A “new 2020 release date” could be 31st December, so don’t pin too much hope on those deceptive words.
This is the third time the studio has postponed the release of the movie, after pushing it back from 17 July to 31 July, and then again to 12 August.
If you’re wondering why this film is so highly-anticipated, that’s because it was written and directed by Christopher Nolan.
Nolan has written and directed many popular films such as the bewildering Memento, and the movie that blew more minds than the first iPhone: Inception.
He also directed and co-wrote the Dark Knight trilogy, which gave fans arguably the best superhero movie-villain of all time:
Nolan’s films are known for its intricate plots, witty dialogue, and memorable characters.
His latest film Tenet, is reportedly about an agency trying to ward off World War III. Not much is known about the spy thriller as Nolan has kept tight-lipped about it, presumably because he wants to add a little more mystery to his film.
