Fox 2000 Pictures has scrapped the November 15 Paris premiere of filmmaker Steven Spielberg's Cold War drama-thriller 'Bridge of Spies' in the wake of Friday's devastating terrorist attacks that left over 120 people dead.

The director-producer was on his way from Berlin to Paris for the screening when the tragedy struck, said The Hollywood Reporter. "In light of the tragedy in Paris, we have cancelled our scheduled film events. Further, we stand with the people of Paris and our thoughts go out to all those affected by these horrible events," Fox said in a statement.
