In the biggest sign yet that Hollywood's fall plans are being altered by the coronavirus surge driven by the Delta variant, Sony Pictures on Thursday delayed the release of the big-budget sequel "Venom: Let There Be Carnage."
Instead of opening in theaters September 24, the "Venom" sequel will now debut October 15. The film, starring Tom Hardy, had already been delayed numerous times during earlier stages of the pandemic. Most indoor viewing venues were fully closed for at least a year while the pandemic crippled industries including hospitality and entertainment. Film professionals have been banking on summer blockbusters to revive the box office.More Related News
