Dune: Part Two Moves Up Two Weeks In November 2023

Today, Disney announced a massive shift in its release dates, removed Blade from the schedule, and delayed it nearly a year. That freed up the initial date that the movie was going to be released, which was November 3, 2023, for someone to jump in and claim what is essentially some prime real estate. Mid-October to Christmas is the second best time of year to release blockbusters, and double that for blockbusters that are also shooting to impact the awards season. One movie that fits into that little niche is Dune: Part Two. When the first movie came out, some worried that it wouldn't make enough money to justify a second part. Still, Legendary and Warner Bros. were happy with the numbers even with the hybrid release, and production on Dune: Part Two started back in July and is still shooting as far as we know. According to Variety, Warner Bros. and Legendary have jumped in to snatch that release date moving Dune: Part Two up two weeks from November 17, 2023, to November 6, 2023.
