MGM/Universal delay the release of No Time To Die until November due to global Coronavirus outbreak

The production of No Time To Die, and its release date, has had a troubled time, but few could have predicted the outbreak of the Coronavirus, or COVID-19 as it is called, to delay the film even further.

Today producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson have announced that the film will be delayed until November with a UK release on 12th November 2020 and US release on 25th November 2020.

The film has had many delays with the first release date when the film was going to be directed by Danny Boyle being November 2019, then when he left the project it was moved to early 2020 and then yet again it was delayed until April 2020 to give the production more time.

Lets hope that the virus is under control ASAP and that there will be no more delays in the release of the movie.

Bond movies in recent years are more comfortable in the holiday period and a Christmas release may well benefit the film.
