Consumer Electronics Show 2022 Being Held In-Person Despite Omicron Fears Attracts 15,000 Sign-Ups

Organizers said on Friday that in the past 10 days, about 15,000 people registered to participate in the global technology exhibition CES, which shows that despite global concerns about the Omicron variant of the coronavirus, the momentum of the live event is good.

Organizers said that so far, a total of “tens of thousands” have registered to participate in the exhibition, but did not quote specific figures.

The Omicron variant was first discovered in Southern Africa and Hong Kong last month, raising global concerns about the rapid spread of the virus and reducing the prospect of increased travel in the near future. More than 1,900 companies have pledged to participate in the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas in January, about half of the pre-pandemic level.

Large companies such as Sony and industry executives such as General Motors CEO Mary Barra plan to travel to Las Vegas, although some companies, including Nvidia, have planned to exist in a virtual way for some time.

“We are not unrealistic: the scale of this year’s show will shrink,” said Jean Foster, senior vice president of marketing and communications for the Consumer Technology Association, which organizes the CES show. “It allows us to widen the aisle and adapt to social distancing.” She said that the interest in attending in person is still “at full speed.”

All participants will be required to present a complete COVID-19 vaccination certificate, and the exhibition will be open from January 5th to 8th.

Tom signs Nolan’s next

This will mark the first collaboration between Tom and Christopher. While details of his next directorial aren’t known yet, it’s most likely not to have a contemporary setting. It’ll be either set in the past like, his previous film Oppenheimer (2023), or in the future like Interstellar (2014). Matt Damon, who has worked with Christopher in both, has also come on board his next.

Christopher’s next will be co-produced by him and his wife Emma Thomas’ banner Syncopy Inc and Universal Pictures, as the two production houses will team up after the Academy Award-winning blockbuster Oppenheimer last year. Prior to Oppenheimer, Christopher collaborated mostly with Warner Bros before having a fallout post the debacle of Tenet (2020).

Warner Bros then went on to produce Greta Gerwig’s musical satire Barbie, which clashed with Oppenheimer at the box office and even outperformed it globally. Warner Bros offered Christopher a cheque for the fees he waived off for helming Tenet during the pandemic. While Christopher graciously accepted the belated remuneration, he still went on to pitch his next to Warner Bros.

Tom’s busy schedule

Tom didn’t have any release this year. His last outing was Todd Graff’s psychological thriller show The Crowded Room on Apple TV last year. He’ll juggle the filming of Christopher Nolan’s next and Spider-Man 4 in 2025. Tom has been playing the superhero ever since Russo Brothers’ 2016 blockbuster Captain America: Civil War. He’s slipped into the Peter Parker shoes post that for three standalone films and two Avengers movies. Spider-Man 4 will be helmed by Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings director Destin Daniel Cretton.

As Tom’s girlfriend and co-star Zendaya will be busy filming Spider-Man 4 in 2025, she’ll reprise her role of Chani in Denis Villeneuve’s sci-fi spectacle Dune 3 only in 2026. Meanwhile, Tom is also likely to make an appearance as Spider-Man in Russo Brothers’ Avengers: Doomsday, which will go on floors in the spring of 2025.
