Godzilla vs. King Kong is making moves as the release date is pushed back a week. The upcoming movie will now arrive on March 31.

Recently, the blockbuster movie was going to arrive to HBO Max on March 26--moved up from a May 2021 release date. However, now the movie is being pushed back a week according to Variety. While the movie is set to hit theaters and HBO Max simultaneously on March 31, international markets where the streaming service isn't available will see the film hit theaters on March 26, one week prior to the US release.

In addition to this announcement, James Wan's upcoming horror film Malignant has been put back onto the release calendar, arriving now on September 10. This news comes in the middle of many other films seeing their release dates being rescheduled. No Time to Die, A Quiet Place II, Morbius, Uncharted, Ghostbusters: Afterlife, and The King's Man have all been pushed back.

As for Godzilla vs. King Kong, the newest trailer for the upcoming movie arrived this past week. The plot of the film is pretty self-explanitory. Godzilla is smashing things and King Kong comes along, and the two beat each other up.

The film stars Alexander Skarsgård (True Blood), Millie Bobby Brown (Stranger Things), Rebecca Hall (The Prestige), and Brian Tyree Henry (Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse) and is directed by Adam Wingard (V/H/S).
