The film, starring Emily Blunt, which was due
to start its international rollout in movie theaters on March
18, was the latest Hollywood movie to be pushed back because of
the virus that has closed movie theaters in China, Italy and
many other nations.
"Due to the ever-changing circumstances of what's going on in
the world around us, now is clearly not the right time to do
that," Krasinski said in a posting on his Instagram account.
He did not say when the film would be released.
"As insanely excited as we are for all of you to see this movie
.. I'm gonna wait to release the film till we CAN all see it
together!," Krasinski added.
The decision followed the postponement last week of the James
Bond movie "No Time to Die" to November from April, and a move
for "Peter Rabbit 2" to August from March.
