Twentieth Century Fox has postponed the Mexico City premiere Wednesday of “X-Men Origins: Wolverine.” The city has been turned into a ghost town thanks to the virus, which has killed more than 100 people.
U.S. citizens are expected to be advised not to travel to Mexico unless absolutely necessary, according to the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
“We were not only concerned about Hugh’s [Jackman's] welfare – and we would never send anyone into harm’s way – but we also have an enormous office filled with people we care about,” says a Fox rep in People. “There was no point in proceeding under the current conditions.”
The Mexico government has asked for residents to stay home, shutting down schools, and Variety reports that the nation’s top movie-theater chains have shut down dozens of cinemas. (via)
The flu strain mutates and now this mutant movie can’t be shown…good game.
