The release date for Pixar's upcoming animated movie “Soul" has been postponed to November due to the coronavirus outbreak after originally being slated for June.
The Walt Disney Co. announced Monday that “Soul” won't open June 19, but will instead hit theaters Nov. 20. The major studios have now cleared out all releases until mid-July, where a handful of movies still remain on the calendar.
