MGM has moved “Bill & Ted Face the Music” back two weeks to Aug. 28 to avoid opening against Christopher Nolan’s “Tenet.”
MGM announced the move Friday, a day after Warner Bros. pushed “Tenet” back from July 31 to Aug. 12. Disney also delayed the theatrical release of “Mulan” for a third time from July 24 to Aug. 21, while Paramount’s “Without Remorse” moved from Oct. 2 to Feb. 26. Tom Clancy’s “Without Remorse,” stars Michael B. Jordan as John Clark.
Most movie theaters closed in mid-March due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Major cinema chains in the U.S., such as AMC, Regal and Cinemark, have been aiming to resume business in July but studios appear to be worried that viewers may be reluctant to return despite safety protocols such as reduced capacity, social distancing and mask-wearing being enforced.
Currently, there are 1,072 U.S theaters open, including 284 drive-ins, up 20% from a week ago, according to Comscore.

With barely any warning, a short fan film on the video game Uncharted, starring Nathan Fillion, debuted on YouTube yesterday.
Fillion stars as the game’s central character, Nathan Drake. The film runs for about 15 minutes and also features Stephen Lang as Sully, Micrea Monroe as Elena, Geno Segers as Diego, and Ernie Reyes Jr. as El Tigre. You can watch it below.
Though no trailer nor even a formal announcement preceded the short film’s release, The Next Web pointed out that Fillion teased it subtly on his Instagram over the past week. For instance, he posted a picture of maps and a magnifying glass with the caption “7/16/18” (the short’s release date) several days ago.
Fillion produced the Uncharted fan film with Allan Ungar, Jesse Wheeler, Bruno Marino, and Louis Sallerson, while Alex Lebovici and Steve Ponce executive produced. Wheeler and Ungar wrote the film.

Fans erupted in cheers two months ago when it was announced that Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter would reprise their roles as “Ted” Theodore Logan and “Bill” S. Preston Esq. in “Bill & Ted Face the Music” — but now, Reeves has warned the third film might not happen.
“I don’t know if it’s a reality,” Reeves told Yahoo Entertainment. “We’ve been trying for a long time to get that film made, and it still has its challenges.”
The actor said the challenges are financial ones, not creative ones, adding that he had ideas for the older version of Theodore Logan.

It's been 27 years since Ted “Theodore” Logan and Bill S. Preston Esq. were thought to have written the song that will save the world. It's about time we find out how that played out.
Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter are officially returning as Bill & Ted respectively. We have been waiting with much anticipation for the third installment of the Bill & Ted, which has long been rumored to be called Bill & Ted Face the Music. The duo will return along with Chris Matheson and Ed Solomon who have written the script once again. Dean Parisot (Galaxy Quest) has signed on to direct.
Reeves and Winter were asked recently about the project and had this to say:
“We couldn’t be more excited to get the whole band back together again. Chris and Ed wrote an amazing script, and with Dean at the helm we’ve got a dream team!”

Whoa! After nearly 30 years and a lot of back and forth talk, the duo of Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter are returning to their iconic roles as Bill & Ted in a new film. It was officially announced today that Bill & Ted Face the Music is officially happening.
The film will see the director Dean Parisot (Galaxy Quest) join Reeves and Winter with Chris Matheson as writer. This third film in the Bill & Ted franchise will also have Steven Soderbergh serve as executive producer.
This third installment in the franchise will follow the two leads as middle-aged adults as they once again time travel to complete their destiny of saving the world with their song. To me, it kind of sounds similar to the second film, Bill & Ted’s Bogus Journey. It was reported that George Carlin‘s character Rufus would be a “deep part of the [third] film.”

Soon, they embark on a time-traveling adventure to save the universe.
“We couldn’t be more excited to get the whole band back together again. Chris and Ed wrote an amazing script, and with Dean at the helm we’ve got a dream team!” Reeves and Winter said in a statement.
