Roland Emmerich’s ‘2012’ Gets Delayed

The Movie God   |  @   |  

2012

Sony Pictures has announced that they will pull 2012, their new disaster movie from Roland Emmerich, from its July release date and push is back to November 13, 2009.

Rory Bruer from Sony explained that their summer slate is already strong enough, offering The Da Vinci Code sequel Angels & Demons with Tom Hanks as well as The Taking of Pelham One Two Three with Denzel Washington and John Travolta as examples. In its new November slot, 2012 will be up against Guy Ritchie’s Sherlock Holmes which stars Robert Downey Jr. with the Twilight sequel New Moon following the week after.

If you ask me, none of this makes any sense. Emmerich is the man behind most disaster movies such as The Day Aafter Tomorrow, which seem to be perfectly fitting to a summer release (or maybe Christmas day, because people love disaster during the holidays). Not that 2012 has the highest expectations, but seriously, to pull your summer blockbuster and put it up against that company with awards season approaching seems very odd. Maybe this is just I.

For those of you who are unfamiliar with 2012, details and the teaser trailer on the other side.

2012 follows a scientific researcher who, per the predictions of an ancient Mayan calendar, races to warn the masses of the end of the world. It stars John Cusack, Amanda Peet, Thandie Newton, Woody Harrelson, and Danny Glover.

Check out the teaser trailer below.
