BRADFORD'S National Science and Media Museum says it will begin refunding customers after news that the latest James Bond film will be delayed due to the spread of the Coronavirus.
The producers of No Time To Die - Daniel Craig's final run as Bond, said yesterday that the release has been delayed from April to November after "careful consideration and thorough evaluation of the global theatrical marketplace."
The founders of two 007 fan sites called on the film studios to delay its release from April 3. The world premier was due to take place in London later this month.
In an open letter to the film studio the founders of MI6 Confidential and The James Bond Dossier said: "Just one person, who may not even show symptoms, could infect the rest of the audience."
New James Bond movie No Time To Die on Bradford's IMAX screen
The National Science and Media Museum was due to show the film on its gargantuan IMAX screen - the biggest screen in the region, and began bookings for showings several weeks ago.
The Museum posted last night: "Unfortunately, it has been decided today that the release of the new James Bond film NO TIME TO DIE has been postponed until November 12.
"We will be contacting our advance ticket holders from tomorrow to arrange refunds or transfers."
