that the film is now expected to land on Wednesday, August 12, nearly a month out from its initial release date. Slated to drop on July 17, the studio pushed that back to July 31 in hopes some normalcy would return by then and theaters would open.
But with coronavirus cases on the rise there is still uncertainty as to what the state of the world will be even in a month's time, and so the studio has shifted again. In doing so, they even went so far as to say that this new date was as tentative as the last one. World realities will dictate when the film drops.
"Warner Bros. is committed to bringing ‘Tenet’ to audiences in theaters, on the big screen, when exhibitors are ready and public health officials say it’s time," the studio said in a statement. One of the factors that seems to be affecting this decision is New York governor Andrew Cuomo's announcement that movie theaters will not be opening in the next phase of that state's reopening strategy, effectively shutting out one of the nation's biggest markets.
