The shifts of releases come as movie theaters around the country are starting to reopen after being closed down due to the ongoing virus. The film industry as a whole has been rocked since the global health crisis first surged last March.
“Top Gun: Maverick” was pushed to a Nov. 19 release date from its previous date of July 2. That movie’s new date takes the spot of the release for “Mission: Impossible 7”. “Dungeons & Dragons,” which will star Chris Pine, “Bridgerton” alum Regé-Jean Page and Hugh Grant, was delayed nearly an entire year, from May 27, 2022 to March 3, 2023.
It’s not the first time Paramount has pushed back their slate due to the ongoing pandemic while Marverick was originally set for last year. Only time will tell if these latest dates will stand.
