A total of  7 weeks of production on the film had taken place before the pandemic put things on hold, with insiders sharing that another three months is needed to shoot all the material for the film.

The piece went on to note that crew members reportedly started constructing sets for the movie this month.

With the delay in production, the movie house has already announced a new release date of Oct. 1, 2021 instead of the original plan to release it June of next year.

As previously reported, director of the “Batman” film Matt Reeves revealed back in April that they’ve “actually shot a quarter of the movie and I have been pouring through dailies, looking at takes, and what’s to come.”
