The as-yet untitled ninth chapter of Fast and Furious, the next James Bond movie, and Blade Runner 2049 director Denis Villeneuve's Dune reboot were all handed (new) release dates over the weekend, with the first two being moved by a month or two. Instead of April 10, 2020, Fast and Furious 9 will now open May 22, 2020. Bond 25, as it's currently called by insiders, shifts to take up that vacated spot, having been previously slated for February 14, 2020. Meanwhile, Dune, which has been rapidly closing out its main cast, now has a release date too: November 20, 2020.
Fast and Furious 9 release date 2i6570
Universal Pictures announced Friday that it had decided to push Godzilla: King of the Monsters.
Before that, we have the first Fast and Furious spin-off — Hobbs and Shaw, featuring Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham — out in August 2019. Johnson won't be part of Fast and Furious 9, a female-centred spin-off in the works.
Bond 25 release date 132u4
That brings us to the next Cary Fukunaga was hired as director last September, it was pushed back a few months as well.
Fast and Furious 9 was moved to accommodate Bond 25, since they have a common distributor — Universal Pictures — which is handling distribution outside the US on the latter and obviously doesn't want the two films to clash with each other at the cinemas. Bond 25 is currently the only film marked for the April 10, 2020 weekend.
