Makers delay release of Christopher Nolan's Tenet by two weeks

Warner Bros. has announced to reschedule the theatrical release date of Christopher Nolan's Tenet. The movie which was earlier set to hit the theatres on July 17 will now release on July 31, 2020.

Mumbai: Christopher Nolan's Tenet, one of the year's most highly anticipated movies, has been pushed back by two weeks and will make its theatrical debut on July 31.

The upcoming espionage thriller, starring Robert Pattinson and John David Washington, was initially slated for July 17.

However, on the date that Tenet was expected to open, theatres will re-release one of Nolan's biggest hits, Inception, in honour of its 10th anniversary.

"We're especially thrilled, in this complex and rapidly changing environment, to be bringing Christopher Nolan's Tenet, a global tentpole of jaw-dropping size, scope and scale, to theatres around the world on July 31," Variety quoted Toby Emmerich, chairman of Warner Bros. Pictures Group as saying.
