After multiple delays and an international release, « Tenet » finally opened in the United States this weekend.
After the pandemic hit this spring, studios delayed many big films like « F9 » and « Top Gun: Maverick » until next year or pushed them to streaming services, as was the case with Disney (DIS) releasing « Mulan » on Disney+ on Friday. Theaters, which have been slowly reopening their doors, have so far offered audiences lesser-known movies like « Unhinged » and « The New Mutants, » which opened last week. So « Tenet, » which was one of the most anticipated films of 2020, could be the beginning of the « road to recovery » for theaters, said Shawn Robbins, chief analyst at Boxoffice.
