Godzilla vs. Kong release date moves back

It was reported only last week that the Godzilla vs. Kong release date has been moved ahead by two months. The upcoming face-off drama that was expected to release on May 21, 2021 was announced to be released on March 26, 2021. But, according to reports from Variety, Warner Bros have postponed the domestic premiere of the film by another week. Now, Godzilla vs. Kong will be releasing on March 31, 2021, in the theatres and on the streaming platform, HBO Max.

It will be premiering internationally (places where HBO Max isn’t available) before North America, on March 26, 2021 itself. The project is made on a total budget of $160 million making it difficult for this science fiction adventure to earn profits by the concept of “movie ticket sales” alone. But, it is being expected that the audience overseas will be the saving grace for the movie as they love watching monster fiction drama.

Also, as HBO Max is only available in the United States, people from around the world will have no option but to watch it in the theatres.
