Can Britain's cinemas bounce back after lockdown? | Stuart Hanson
With the major studios pulling many blockbusters from their release schedules this meant that when cinemas did reopen in July 2020, there were few if any major studio titles to see. Of those prospective billion-dollar earners, only Christopher Nolanâs Tenet, got a substantial cinema release in the UK and elsewhere, taking $350m globally. Hollywood trade magazine Variety wondered if that wasnât bad for a film released in a pandemic and with no cinemas open in New York or LA. No Time to Die has been rescheduled three times, rumoured to be costing MGM $1m a month in interest payments.
