With Christopher Nolan’s “Tenet” pulled from its mid-August global release, we learned last week the new plan now is to likely open in global markets and States safe enough to show the film first and then roll it out in areas that are able to get their pandemic under control.
Then earlier this morning, eagle eyed viewers spotted a listing by Regal Cinemas that hints at a U.S. release on September 4th, that listing following on from claims the first global openings seem to be targeting a launch on the last weekend of August (26th-28th).
Now Warner Bros. Pictures has made their release plans clear. The film will launch in over 70 countries worldwide starting on Wednesday, August 26th.
