Cinemas shutting and and world under a pandemic. For the box office smash hits that were planned to hit our screens, we see numerous delays. This is for good reason, current takings are expected to be a fraction of their usual numbers.
Dune is one of the latest movies to be pushed back, filming has finished but a new release date of October 1st, 2021 means no Dune for the time being. This is a strategic time for a release and should help to sell tickets, so long as it does not coincide with other hit movies.
Dune is set to be a great telling of a classic story/game. Perhaps the bump in sci-fi that many have been waiting for. We will need a little more patience and hope that things will be better in 2021, because 2020 sucks...
