We’ll have to wait a bit longer for the man in the hat to return as Indiana Jones 5 is pushed back a year to 29th July 2022 due to the Coronavirus outbreak, and it’s not the only film affected as a glut of Disney projects also shift dates.
“Black Widow” — which was delayed last month — will now open Nov. 6, 2020, taking the place of fellow Marvel adventure “The Eternals.” That shift pushed back most impending installments in Marvel Cinematic Universe, which will now launch as follows: “The Eternals” on Feb. 12, 2021, “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings” on May 7, 2021, “Doctor Strange 2” on Nov. 5, 2021 and “Thor: Love and Thunder” on Feb. 18, 2022. “Black Panther 2” will still debut May 6, 2022, while “Captain Marvel 2” has been set for July 8, 2022.
The studio’s live-action remake of “Mulan” has been pushed to July 24, 2020, opening on the date previously occupied by “Jungle Cruise.” However, there is no guarantee that theaters will even be reopened by then, and sources at Disney note that release dates could continue to move given the uncertainty over the global health crisis.
“Jungle Cruise,” a family film starring Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt, will bow July 20, 2021, roughly a year after expected.
