Spike Lee’s remake of Oldboy was set to open on October 25th, but it has been announced that the movie has been pushed back to November. The new release date is November 27th, which has the movie opening the day before Thanksgiving and on the same week as Black Nativity, Frozen, and Homefront.
“OLDBOY is a provocative, visceral thriller that follows the story of an advertising executive (Josh Brolin) who is abruptly kidnapped and held hostage for 20 years in solitary confinement. When he is inexplicably released, he embarks on an obsessive mission to discover who orchestrated his bizarre and torturous punishment only to find he is still trapped in a web of conspiracy and torment.
Co-starring Elizabeth Olsen and Sharlto Copley, OLDBOY was directed by Spike Lee, from a script by Mark Protosevich (I Am Legend, The Cell, Thor). The film was produced by Roy Lee, Doug Davison and Nathan Kahane.”
