J.J. Abrams is directing top secret sci-fi movie The Great Beyond for Warner Bros., which had originally been scheduled for theatrical release on November 13, 2026. But we’ve learned this morning that The Great Beyond has been moved out of this year entirely.
The Great Beyond will now release in theaters and IMAX on October 1, 2027.
Deadline explains, “We understand that there was a test screening of The Great Beyond at the Regal Irvine with Warners deciding that they wanted 70MM Imax prints of the pic. Abrams has been busy editing and was expected to finish post in September. Now, the filmmaker has more time to complete his original Bad Robot opus which he wrote.”
The mysterious film is being described as a science fiction fantasy.
Jenna Ortega (“Wednesday”) and Glen Powell (The Running Man) will star alongside Emma Mackey, Sophie Okonedo, Merritt Wever, and Samuel L. Jackson.
Stay tuned for much more on The Great Beyond as we learn it.
