Release date for Cell?

[ClaireB76]

Anyone know if there's a rough release date for Cell yet?

I know it's next year, but wondered if there was a firmer date. Apologies if the answer was in the other thread...feeling too lazy to read through 55 replies

I am so excited for this movie! Love John Cusack ... and Samuel L. Jackson.

Clarius Entertainment has acquired US rights to Cell, which was produced by Benaroya Pictures and The Genre Company. The plan is to release it theatrically later this year.

“CELL is an exciting addition to our slate, with solid pedigree both in front of and behind the camera and a wild ride of a story for our cell phone-dependent culture,” said Louise Chater, Clarius’ acquisition head. “Our team is very much looking forward to working with these filmmakers and bringing the film into the US marketplace.”

Oh for crying out loud. I give up. It will probably be released on Netflixs in the next year. One day I'll be browsing and there it will be.

Anyone know why? I searched online, but couldn't find anything.

Their announcement simply said, "Due to circumstances beyond our control, mainly a shift in release dates."

I see still no word on release dates, although I did see the Argentina thing...Hmm, just have to be patient I guess

Saban Films Buys Samuel Jackson-John Cusack Horror Movie ‘Cell’ | Variety

 

[Rrty]

Bev Vincent, does the Saban purchase indicate that this will be either a straight VOD release, or perhaps a hybrid play?

 

[Bev Vincent]

No idea yet, I'm afraid.
