When will NTTD be released?

Will everyone be back in the cinemas in November?

There’s one rumor that EON is considering moving it to next year, when hopefully BO is back to normal. Makes sense when they pour $400-500 million into making it.
Some places say they don’t think movie theaters will be back until September/October and some really big movies are being moved to the end of the years also hurting NTTD

Also there is a theater chain (amc?) who are boycotting universal who is distributing internationally because universal did a direct to digital release of the new trolls movie, it was successful and universal talked about many doing more day or theatre releases.

To top it all off there is another rumor that tests screening in March didn’t do well.

I voted VOD, simply because I have my doubts that cinemas, already in decline, will ever recover from this pandemic.

Vod might have a bigger say in who buys MGM,
also mgm owns more bond rights than danjaq, eon is just a production company the rights are owned by danjaq which mgm owns half along with the rights to CR and thunderball, technically speaking if mgm or new owners wanted they could make a bond series out side of eons production company

I could see apple or amazon being more interested in owning a vod premiere of NTTD a first for the movie franchise, fist blockbuster franchise to go this rout.
Be kind of ironic if AMC theaters boycotting pushes mgm or new owners to go VOD worldwide

I don’t know if movie theaters recover, first time in my lifetime that they closed their doors like this, normally theaters profit from people forced to take time off because other venues are closed families flock to kill time at theaters. Three months and counting of no movie theaters and vod being the go to of the masses. Do they make a come back? Will people associate the movies as being a place where people can get sick? Or did going cold turkey off movie theaters kick off a new vod trend?

Looks like late 2021 now.

Just voted VOD as well because I can see them not being ready for another year or two (there wasn't an option for 2023) and their budget will probably run out by that point.

I think their budget ran out already but mgm has to keep them floated because they need a buyer. Only thing worse than not getting bond movie money is flopping the franchise by releasing the at wrong time

At some point nttd has to be released vod is easier because the cost is less. Movies have yet to prove they can make a comeback and right now Hollywood is pushing subscription services, which I don’t think everybody can be nextflix and Disney plus.

It feels more like vod to me, but Babs is nothing if not greedy I could see her refuse to release it at all until she get a cool hundred million after cost and profit splits.
