With little progress in Hollywood strike talks, further delays could be on the way
Dune 2sequel to the film based on the work of Frank Herbert, will arrive a little later in theaters. As informed by Variety, Warner Bros. confirmed the postponement to March 14, 2024.
The studio’s decision is not surprising, since, in July, sources also told Variety that the company was studying the possibility of delaying the launch due to the stoppages caused by the writers’ and actors’ strike. Originally, the release of Dune: Part 2 was scheduled for November 2, 2023.
Due to the new date, the continuation of Godzilla vs. Kong had the release pushed by one month, moving from March 14 to April 12. With little progress in the Hollywood strike talks, further delays could be on the way.
According to the strike rules defined by the Actors Union (SAG-AFTRA), the artists cannot do any publicity work for new films, such as giving interviews or going to previews. If the strike lasts until the end of the year, the space for these films in the media risks being much smaller, since the actors will not be able to promote them — which could even impact the results of these productions at the box office.
