Death Wish: Bruce Willis Remake Release Pushed to 2018

Now hitting theaters March 2, 2018.

MGM has delayed the release date for the upcoming Death Wish remake starring Bruce Willis.

Deadline reports the film, from director Eli Roth, will no longer be released on November 22 and is instead now hitting theaters March 2, 2018.

The reason for the delay is because of just how crowded Thanksgiving weekend has become for movie releases. Death Wish would have had to go up against the Pixar film Coco, Aaron Sorkin's crime drama Molly's Game starring Jessica Chastain, and horror film Polaroid.

With its new March 2 release date, Death Wish will open the same weekend as Jennifer Lawrence's espionage thriller Red Sparrow, action/drama film Alpha, and the comedy Game Night.

Along with Willis, Death Wish also stars Vincent D’Onofrio, Elisabeth Shue, Dean Norris and Mike Epps.

While you wait a bit longer for Death Wish's release, be sure to read Eli Roth's column on IGN about his favorite revenge movies.
