Brad Pitt`s `Bullet Train` is arriving at the station a little later than scheduled. Sony Pictures announced that the action thriller is moving from July 15 to July 29, taking the recently-vacated date of Dwayne Johnson`s DC movie `Black Adam`.
As per Deadline, the July 15 release date is now being taken by `Where the Crawdads Sing`, a drama-mystery from Sony`s 3000 Pictures.
The move gives `Bullet Train` a little breathing room behind Disney`s MCU threequel `Thor: Love and Thunder`, which will hit theatres on July 8.
In its new July 29 slot, `Bullet Train` will battle two other wide openers: Focus Features` horror-thriller `Vengeance` and Paramount`s animated action-comedy `Paws of Fury: The Legend of Hank`, which are both releasing on July 22.
Pitt stars in `Bullet Train` as an experienced assassin whose first day back at work isn`t as easy as planned as he finds himself among several other professional killers with a similar mission on said train.
Sandra Bullock, Joey King, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Brian Tyree Henry, Hiroyuki Sanada, Zazie Michael Shannon, Andrew Koji and Benito A Martinez Ocasio (aka Bad Bunny) are also a part of the star cast.
The upcoming movie has been helmed by `Deadpool 2` director David Leitch. With a screenplay by Zak Olkewicz, the film is based on `Maria Beetle` by Kotaro Isaka.
