A growing list of films have been postponed this year because of coronavirus.

This list includes the upcoming No Time to Die film that has been pushed now to a much later Nov release for 2020, along with F9 (another Fast and Furious flick), the new Mulan, A Quiet Place 2, and others.

I had been looking forward to the upcoming release of A Quiet Place 2, so it is somewhat disappointing to see it cancelled with the others, but cannot say that I am surprised.

The future release date for that project is not known yet.

Other films that have been pushed include Peter Rabbit 2 : The Runaway, Antlers, and some television productions have also now been suspended.

Worldwide, the box office is taking a hit, losing billions, and it will continue for some time, until another topic takes center stage with media and the general public.

For now, shows like Price is Right and Grey's Anatomy have reportedly stopped filming temporarily.

It has essentially become a nightmare for some in the film industry to deal with, same with the travel industry, grocery market, and other economic areas.

The list of media projects that have been impacted continues to grow by the day.

Music, Movies, Travel..

Broadway has shut down all productions, Disneyland has closed theme parks, popular entertainment options in the market are rapidly deteriorating.

Some estimates suggest that the virus could cost the travel industry more than $500 million, for the music industry? They suspect losses in the billions as the virus has already disrupted both SXSW and Coachella festivals.

Even for smaller players, such as the indie film business, some reports suggest they might see a revenue loss upwards of 70 percent.

With the steady cancellation of more media projects, it might only be a matter of time before more theaters close, like the thousands that have already been closed in China. Just in 2 months it has been estimated that the box office in China has lost over $200 million.
