On Monday, Sony Pictures Entertainment hosted a raucous premiere for “Spider-Man: No Way Home,” a superhero adventure widely expected to generate a new COVID-era record opening weekend.
The sudden shift in conditions has cast doubt on the viability of upcoming in-person events such as the Critics Choice Awards, the Sundance Film Festival and premieres for major movies. Already, severalshows have cancelled performances or gone on hiatus after members of their company tested positive for the virus, and several prominent restaurants in New York closed after staff were exposed.
The Critics Choice Awards, which is being held at the Fairmont Hotel on Jan. 9 in Los Angeles, is still moving forward with plans, although some awards watchers think the event may be revamped as an outdoor show. The Hollywood Critics Association, which is hosting its own show on Jan. 8 says it plans to have its show as planned…for now.
But signs of Omicron’s spread and its impact on the industry are increasingly being felt — most acutely in the West End, where headline shows like the Eddie Redmayne and Jessie Buckley-starring “Cabaret” have had to cancel performances as a result of COVID cases in the company. What’s promising, however, is that theaters are largely canceling select performances or a week or two of shows, rather than shutting down productions entirely.
