AceShowbiz – Bosses at Marvel have decided to pause production on “The Falcon And The Winter Soldier“, “Loki“, and “WandaVision” due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Earlier this week, “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier” was put on delay, where it is filming in Eastern Europe, and similar precautions have been put in place on other shows, which will air exclusively on the Disney+ streaming service, reported Variety.
Disney has also paused production on all of its live-action movies, including the Marvel film “Shang-Chi” and “The Legend of the Ten Rings“, and has made the decision to release various flicks on home entertainment platforms ahead of schedule to encourage fans to self-isolate amid the health crisis.
On Friday (19Mar20), it was announced that “Frozen II” will be added to the streaming service Disney+ this weekend, three months earlier than planned, to provide “families with some fun and joy during this challenging period”.
The most recent “Star Wars” movie, “The Rise of Skywalker”, has also been released earlier than planned, likely due to the pandemic.
It comes as various TV shows and movie productions have been halted due to the Covid-19 situation, with Robert Pattinson‘s “The Batman” among the latest films to shut down in London.
Production was due to move to Liverpool, but the move is being put on hold amid the shut down, with representatives from Warner Bros. telling The Hollywood Reporter: “Warner Bros. Pictures feature production of The Batman will hiatus filming for two weeks beginning today. The studio will continue to monitor the situation closely.”
Work on various Universal productions, including Chris Pratt‘s “Jurassic World: Dominion“, has also been halted, while TV shows including “The Ellen DeGeneres Show“, “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon“, “Late Night with Seth Meyers“, and “The Wendy Williams Show” have been axed.
