Another movie has been delayed due to the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic — and this one was just a week away from hitting theaters.

John Krasinski announced Thursday his new movie A Quiet Place Part II is being delayed, citing the "ever-changing circumstances of what's going on in the world around us." Krasinski did not say when the movie, which was scheduled to hit theaters in North America on March 20, will come out, but he said it will have to wait until "we can all see it together."
