Warners Pulls ‘Mickey 17’ From Release Schedule, Bumps Up ‘Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire’

Warner Bros has pulled Bong Joon ho’s anticipated sci fi pic Mickey 17 from its release calendar, bumping up Adam Wingard’s Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire from April 12th to March 29th, 2024, when it will debut in IMAX. We’re told that the Mickey 17 move was due to shifts in production amidst last year’s strikes, and that a new date will be coming relatively soon.

Godzilla ‘s move to the weekend previously inhabited by that title sees it set to open with very little competition, a re release of Alice Rorhwacher’s La Chimera being the only other plan, exhibition wise, for that frame. Cast for Joon ho’s follow up to Oscar winning smash Parasite includes Robert Pattinson, Naomi Ackie, recent Golden Globe winner Steven Yeun, Toni Collette, and Mark Ruffalo.

Producers of the project are Dede Gardner, Jeremy Kleiner, Joon Ho, and Dooho Choi. Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire , meanwhile, stars Rebecca Hall, Brian Tyree Henry, Kaylee Hottle, and Daniel Stevens. Mary Parent, Alex Garcia, Eric McLeod, Brian Rogers, and Thomas Tull served as producers on the Warners/Legendary title..
