Charlie Hunnam's King Arthur Film Has Been Delayed

The release of Guy Ritchie's upcoming King Arthur film -- which stars Charlie Hunnam as the legendary character -- has been pushed back over a month, from February 17, 2017, to March 24, 2017. The film had previously been set for a July 2016 release, and it will currently go up against Lionsgate's Power Rangers, the first big-screen release for that franchise in 20 years.

Ritchie's film is expected to be an origin story for King Arthur and possibly the launching pad for an ongoing franchise about his exploits. Àstrid Bergès-Frisbey will star in the film as Guinevere, while Jude Law, Djimon Hounsou and Katie McGrath are also appearing as well. The film will mark Ritchie's follow-up to last year's The Man from U.N.C.L.E.

Sam Rockwell in The Way Way Back

Nat Faxon and Jim Rash -- the writers and directors of 2013 comedy/drama The Way, Way Back -- will take on a horror comedy titled Dead Mall. The film's title refers to second-tier malls that have fallen in disrepair and faded from prominence, as the events of the project follow a group of forty-somethings trapped in one.

The film will reportedly toy with slasher film storytelling conventions, though further details --  including who might join the cast -- are hard to come by at this point. Faxon and Rash previously co-wrote the Oscar-winning screenplay for The Descendants with Alexander Payne, as well as a pair of episodes of Community season 6.
