'Mickey 17' Rescheduled for January 2025 Amid Production Delays

Warner Bros. moves the release of Bong Joon Ho and Robert Pattinson's sci-fi movie to capitalize on Lunar New Year and avoid a crowded release schedule.

Warner Bros. has postponed the release of 'Mickey 17' to January 31, 2025, due to last year's strikes and various production shifts.
The new release date allows the film to open in IMAX and coincides with the Lunar New Year, a significant moviegoing event internationally.
'Mickey 17' is Bong Joon Ho's first feature since 'Parasite,' and stars Robert Pattinson in a story about a disposable employee on a space colonization mission.
The film is adapted from Edward Ashton’s novel, featuring a star-studded cast including Naomi Ackie, Steven Yeun, Toni Collette, and Mark Ruffalo.
The January release positions 'Mickey 17' in a less competitive window, potentially benefiting from pent-up demand.
