The coronavirus has taken another casualty in the entertainment sphere.
The coronavirus strikes again, this time taking out one of the most beloved and popular film franchises in the world, The Fast and The Furious.
That’s right, Fast 9, set to release this May, has now been delayed until April 2021.
The film franchise stars Vin Diesel, The Rock, and now includes John Cena, three major figures beloved in the fitness and bodybuilding industry.
The news of the delay has been posted up on the official Fast 9 Instagram page with a heartfelt message to the fan base.
The threat of the coronavirus continues to spread like wildfire with no end in sight. With so many other countries doing their best to combat this pandemic, the US is doing the same. But with a less than reliable healthcare system it leaves the citizenry vulnerable to contracting the coronavirus which has only added greatly to the panic.
