The Lovebirds movie billboards...

Today was the date that The Lovebirds was going to be released in cinemas and then things kind of went sideways in the world thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Instead the romantic comedy starring Issa Rae and Kumail Nanjiani will find a new home on Netflix's streaming platform.

In the movie they play a couple on the brink of breaking up when they become embroiled in a bizarre murder mystery.

As they work to clear their names and solve the case, they have to figure out how they and their relationship can survive the experience.

These movie billboards for the film's original theatrical release were photographed along Santa Monica Boulevard, Pico Boulevard and Sunset Boulevard from March 11 to March 18, 2020.

Issa Rae admirers can enjoy these Insecure billboards, these Little movie billboards and these movie billboards for The Photograph.

Meanwhile Kumail Nanjiani fans can check out these film billboards for The Big Sick and these Silicon Valley billboards.

It's a brave new world people, so let's love and laugh as much as possible during these uncertain times and hope we can all go back to visiting the multiplex soon. Stay safe and strong.

UPDATED: The coronavirus may still be raging, but the city skyline is once again filled with romance with these updated billboards for The Lovebirds on Netflix.

These outdoor ads for the streaming service's release of the romantic comedy were spotted along Sunset Strip, Pico Boulevard and Westwood Boulevard on May 13, 2020.
