Fox has moved two of its high profile summer films \u2014 Alita: Battle Angel<\/strong> and The Predator<\/strong> – back several months into the fall season.<\/p>\n

The studio is moving Alita: Battle Angel<\/strong>, its adaption of the classic Yukito Kishiro manga from its July 20th release date to December 21. Additionally, Fox has moved The Predator<\/strong>, the Shane Black directed reboot of the science fiction franchise about aliens who come to Earth to hunt humans for sport, back six weeks from its August 3 bow to September 14.<\/p>\n

Fox has also picked November 8, 2019 as the release date for Death On The Nile<\/strong>, the sequel to director\/star Kenneth Branagh\u2019s Agatha Christie adaptation Murder On The Orient Expres<\/strong>s.<\/p>\n

Moving Alita<\/strong> to December is actually a show of confidence for the film from the studio considering that it will now be up against Warner\u2019s superhero film Aquaman<\/strong> and Paramount’s first Transformers<\/strong> spinoff Bumblebee<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the move for The Predator<\/strong> now places it in competition with the action film Alpha<\/strong>, the thriller The Darkest Minds<\/strong> starring Mandy Moore and Fighting With The Family<\/strong>, a comedy from Stephen Merchant.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
