‘Top Gun: Maverick,’ ‘Mission: Impossible 7,’ ‘Jackass Forever’ release dates delayed: report

Paramount has pushed back the releases of several of its upcoming movies as the coronavirus pandemic continues to rage on.

“Jackass Forever” (originally slated for Oct. 22, 2021) will now debut on Feb. 4, 2022, “Top Gun: Maverick” (Nov. 19, 2021) will now debut on May 27, 2022 and ‘Mission: Impossible 7″ (May 27, 2022) will hit theaters on Sept. 30, 2022, per Variety.

Tom Cruise, a vocal proponent of COVID-safe film productions, stars in both “Top Gun: Maverick,” a sequel to the 1986 hit, and “Mission: Impossible 7,” a continuation of his popular spy action-thriller franchise.

Both films have seen a number of release delays since the down of the pandemic, as movie theaters have either been closed, had limited audiences or have failed to attract pre-pandemic level audiences that pricey tentpole films rely on so heavily. – READ MORE
