Universal Studios previously announced that the planned May 22, 2020 release of “F9” had been pushed back by one year to April 2, 2021.
“We feel all the love and the anticipation you have for the next chapter in our saga,” the studio announced in a Facebook post at the time of the first pushback.
“That’s why it’s especially tough to let you know that we have to move the release date of the film. It’s become clear that it won’t be possible for all of our fans around the world to see the film this May.”
