Mulan starring Jet Li and Donnie Yen got pulled with literally a couple of weeks to go before it hit cinemas, but then the COVID-19 pandemic hit and cinemas closed and the release was pulled.
Black Widow starring Scarlett Johansson and Florence Pugh was set to kick of the summer movie schedule with a release of May 1st.
With the new release dates we can start looking forward to the live action remake and the start of the Marvel Cinematic Universe Phase 4.
Interestingly July 24th is the current release date of Disney's own Jungle Cruise movie starring Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt, so expect a move of that to maybe Christmas?
**UPDATE** The release date of Jungle Cruise has moved and will now get a release on 30th July 2021.
This is all providing the current stay at home is over and the cinemas have reopened.
