Broken Hearts Gallery: Sony delays theatrical release to an indefinite date
Due to the sudden surge of new COVID-19 cases, the government’s July plan for the reopening of movie theaters has been upended. Because of this, scheduled movie releases for July and August are suffering another delay. According to Deadline, Sony Pictures’ upcoming romantic-comedy film Broken Hearts Gallery is one of the many films affected by this news as the studio pushes back its July 17 release date to an indefinite date and has temporarily removed it from their schedule. Despite this, the outlet’s sources also say that the studio is still committed to release the Selena Gomez-produced film in theaters and isn’t giving in for a digital release instead.
