Under normal circumstances, the summer movie season would be underway right now.

But with movie theaters across the US closed due to the coronavirus pandemic, major movie releases won’t be coming to theaters any time soon — or at least until July 17, when Christopher Nolan’s “Tenet” is still on the release calendar.
