F9 and Venom 2 to be Released on the Same Day

Let the box office cannibalism begin. F9 and Venom 2 (Venom: Let There Be Carnage) will now be released on the same day in June 2021, specifically June 25, 2021. Because of this theatrical release schedule change, F9 and Venom: Let There Be Carnage will now eat into each others box office take on opening weekend, potentially lowering what each film makes on that critical release day. My guess is that Venom: Let There Be Carnage will say “chicken” and move.

Blue Bayou is also being theatrically released on June 25.

Minions 2, entitled Minions: The Rise of Gru, will be released on July 1, 2022.

Plot Synopses

F9‘s plot synopsis: “After the events of The Fate of the Furious (2017), Dominic Toretto and his family must face Dominic’s younger brother Jakob, a deadly assassin, who is working with their old enemy Cipher, and who holds a personal vendetta against Dominic.”

Venom: Let There Be Carnage‘s plot synopsis has not been released.

Minions: The Rise of Gru‘s plot synopsis: “Set just after the 2015 film, this time in the heart of the 1970s, a 12-year old Gru is growing up in the suburbs. A fanboy of a supervillain group known as the Vicious 6, Gru hatches a plan to become evil enough to join them. When the Vicious 6 fire their leader, legendary fighter Wild Knuckles, Gru interviews to become their newest member.

It does not go well, and things only get worse after Gru steals a precious object from them with the help of Kevin, Stuart, Bob, Otto, and the other Minions and suddenly finds himself the mortal enemy of the apex of evil. On the run, Gru and the Minions will turn to an unlikely source for guidance, Wild Knuckles himself, and discover that even bad guys need a little help from their friends.”
