This morning, Focus Features announced a pair of their upcoming films have been given new release dates, though you won’t be waiting much longer for them.
Movie delays are a normal thing (more common these days), but fortunately the films (including the anticipated Downton Abbey sequel) Focus Features have moved are relatively short delays. First up, The Outfit has moved from it’s February slot, and will now hit theaters on March 18, 2022:
THE OUTFIT is directed by Moore (The Imitation Game), who also co-wrote the screenplay with actor/writer Johnathan McClain (Mad Men). The film stars Academy Award® winner Mark Rylance (The Trial of the Chicago 7), Dylan O’Brien (The Maze Runner series), Zoey Deutch (Set It Up), Johnny Flynn (Emma), Nikki Amuka-Bird (NW) and Simon Russell Beale (The Hollow Crown). Producers are Scoop Wasserstein, Ben Browning and Amy Jackson. The film is a gripping and masterful thriller in which an expert tailor (Rylance) must outwit a dangerous group of mobsters in order to survive a fateful night.
Meanwhile, Downton Abbey: A New Era has been pushed out of April and will now drop on May 20, 2022.
From award-winning creator Julian Fellowes comes the motion picture event DOWNTON ABBEY: A NEW ERA. The much-anticipated cinematic return of the global phenomenon reunites the beloved cast as they go on a grand journey to the South of France to uncover the mystery of the Dowager Countess’ newly inherited villa.
