Paramount Pulls 'The Lovebirds' and 'Blue Story' Because of Coronavirus

hollywoodreporter.com:

Hours after making the call to move A Quiet Place Part II off the schedule, Paramount is pulling two more films because of the coronavirus pandemic:The Lovebirds and Blue Story.

The move follows a frenzied early morning in Hollywood that also saw Universal tentpole F9 move to 2021. Blue Story, previously scheduled for March 20, was slated for a limited release (A Quiet Place Part IIwas set to bow on the same day).

The film is a low-budget feature adaptation of Rapman's YouTube series about two young friends who become rivals in a street war.

Lovebirds, which stars Issa Rae and Kumail Nanjiani, was scheduled to open April 3. The film, which was produced by MRC, was slotted for April as counterprogramming to the kickoff of the summer tentpole.
