Theatrical Release FAQs
How accurate are these theatrical release dates?
Our theatrical dates are confirmed by studios and distributors. While major releases rarely change once announced, independent films may adjust their release strategy.
What does 'limited release' mean?
Limited releases initially open in select major markets (usually LA/NYC), before potentially expanding nationwide based on performance.
Do international theatrical releases match US dates?
Theatrical releases often vary by country. Major blockbusters typically have coordinated global releases, while smaller films may release months apart in different regions.
