Paramount has announced a new wave of movie release delays, pushing Top Gun: Maverick and Jackass Forever into 2022.
We knew more release date changes were on the horizon, but it’s still a bummer nonetheless. Just a week after wowing crowds at CinemaCon with 11-minutes of Top Gun: Maverick footage, Paramount has shifted the film out of 2021 altogether (with a couple other changes as well). The new release dates are:
Jackass Forever has shifted to February 4, 2022.
Top Gun: Maverick will now arrive on Memorial Day, May 27, 2022.
Mission:Impossible 7 (which was in that Memorial Day spot) will now drop on September 30, 2021.
With these moved, and Clifford The Big Red Dog having been pulled from the calendar already Paramount effectively has NO films left on the 2021 slate. Sure there’s only a few months left, but it’s a sobering reminder that this pandemic isn’t going away and still impacting lives. If you love watching movies, go on and get vaccinated.
