Wonder Woman 1984 is officially being delayed due to the ongoing issue of COVID-19 closing movie theaters across the country. The film will now be skipping over its initial June 5 release date to later in the summer
There are rumors that film producers and executives at Warner Media were considering skipping a theatrical release and will send the movie directly to streaming services, though they have not been confirmed. Director Patty Jenkins said on her social media: "we made Wonder Woman 1984 for the big screen and I believe in the power of cinema. In these terrible times, when theater owners are struggling as so many are, we are excited to re-date our film to August 14th 2020 in a theater near you, and pray for better times for all by then."
