Wonder Woman 2 Release Date Moved Up

Warner Bros. has made the smart decision to vacate its previously-held Wonder Woman 2 release date of December 13, 2019 by moving the sequel up six weeks to November 1, 2019. Why is it smart? Because a little movie called Star Wars: Episode IX moved from its May 2019 release slot to December 20, 2019 when J.J. Abrams took over, which wouldn’t give the Wonder Woman follow-up the chance to breathe. Marvel Studios’ Thor: Ragnarok is doing gangbusters business after opening November 3, so it’s proven that audiences have an appetite for mythological superheroics in the fall. As of now, Wonder Woman 2 is the only film sitting on that November 1 slot, although the untitled 25th James Bond film opens the week after on November 8, 2019, as does the female-centric holiday comedy Nicole starring Anna Kendrick.
