It was finished filming almost a year before they started shutting down movie theaters for the pandemic and they didn’t release promotional materials back then.

So, that pushes the earliest summer release as 2 to 2.5 years after filming each scene assuming COVID actually delayed things.

They did release promo, the first trailer came out in 2019. Here you go: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=flURw76_UCU

You can see they had settled on June 2020 as the release date, but, you know what happened next. That release date was fully locked in until it became clear COVID wasn't going away.

There were other, earlier delays: the film was initially scheduled for 2019, but they spent most of that year doing reshoots.

Odd, I check for summer blockbusters it’s the in January or early February and it wasn’t on the 2020 list.

But it’s clearly on this list from dec 2019: https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/2020-movies-to-see-14004...
