How to Rob a Bank Moves From Labor Day to Mid-November

Amazon MGM says the shift is meant to court 18–34 viewers by positioning the film in the Thanksgiving box‑office window.

Overview

  • The studio repositioned David Leitch’s How to Rob a Bank from its Labor Day slot of Sept. 4 to a mid-November release, according to reports on Friday, July 10, 2026.
  • Coverage notes a minor discrepancy in the new day with some outlets citing Nov. 12 and Deadline reporting Nov. 13, but all sources agree the film is moving into the Thanksgiving period.
  • Amazon MGM told reporters the move follows strong early responses from younger audiences to the film’s marketing and is designed to increase turnout from 18–34 viewers.
  • The cast and creative team remain unchanged, with Nicholas Hoult and Zoë Kravitz leading an ensemble directed by David Leitch from a Mark Bianculli script and produced by Imagine and 87Eleven.
  • The date change alters the competitive landscape by removing the film from an early-September field and placing it against high-profile November releases, which could boost holiday turnout but also bring it closer to late‑December blockbusters.
