Overview

  • The film was removed from its July 17 theatrical slot and currently has no scheduled release date.
  • A Puck News report said Warner Bros. had labeled Cut Off “unreleasable” after poor test screenings but that characterization has been disputed by the studio and Jonah Hill’s representatives.
  • Warner Bros. told outlets the “unreleasable” language is inaccurate while Hill’s team said the movie is still in post-production and requires more work before release.
  • The original July date would have placed the comedy against Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey, a competitive matchup that industry coverage cites as a factor in timing decisions.
  • Reporting also notes that studio scheduling and corporate shifts could shape the film’s future release plans and that cast and filmmakers will have to wait for Warner Bros. to set a new date.
