Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is on the move.
Disney on Monday made a number of changes to Marvel’s upcoming slate that, for the most part, sees titles delayed by several months or more.
Those titles include the Black Panther sequel, which moves from July 8, 2022, to Nov. 11, 2022.
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness kicks off the reshuffling in relocating from March 25, 2022, to May 6, 2022, a date previously occupied by Thor: Love and Thunder.
Other studios wasted no time in taking advantage of the changes. Paramount quickly announced it will now launch romantic action-adventure The Lost City, starring Sandra Bullock, Channing Tatum and Brad Pitt, on March 25, 2022, instead of April 15, 2022 (the project was previously titled The Lost City of D).
The next chapter in Marvel’s Thor series will open on July 8, the Black Panther sequel’s previous launching pad.
The Marvels moves from Nov. 11, 2022, to Feb. 17, 2023, which bumps Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania to July 28, 2023.
Disney’s live-action studio also revealed that it is pushing back its untitled Indiana Jones reboot by almost a year, from July 29, 2022, to June 30, 2023.
Studio insiders say the Marvel shifts are primarily due to various production delays, as well as finding the best dates for movies as the film industry emerges from the pandemic.
The shuffling was announced hours before the world premiere of Marvel’s Eternals, which opens in theaters Nov. 5.
Oct. 18, 10:10 a.m. Updated with The Lost City’s new release date.
