Warner Bros. Pushes THE LEGO MOVIE 2 Back Almost A Full Year To Winter 2019

Fans of Phil Lord and Christopher Miller's awesome The Lego Movie are going to have to wait quite a bit longer than they expected to see Emmett, Wyldstyle and co. return for more adventures. According to Deadline, the highly anticipated sequel has been pushed back to February 8, 2019 - not too far off a full year from its original 2018 release date.

No reason was given for the change-up, but the studio has also set new dates for Gerard Butler's Geostorm (Oct. 20, 2017) and Ben Affleck's Live By Night (Jan. 13, 2017).

Disappointing news for sure - but The Lego Batman movie is due out next May, so at least that'll make the wait more bearable.

Each box of Lego's (that was to come free with the movie) was to sealed inside a box of dirt to secure its gritty reality.
After BvS they realize they now have to wash all those Lego's and its going to take a while.

Affleck's movie gets a January release date? Hmmm maybe it gets a limited release in December but opens wide in Jan

@Spider2YBanana -

That's my guess. The Revenant did the same thing. Live By Night's supposed to be an epic book and I'm a big fan of Dennis Lehane's work. Should be a great flick.

@regularmovieguy - didn't he write Gone Baby Gone, too? That's probably my fave Affleck movie. I just bought Live By Night and plan on reading it after I finish Hush

@Spider2YBanana -

Gone Baby Gone is my favorite Affleck directed flick as well. I'll probably pick up Live By Night soon..haven't gotten around to it quite yet.
