Sony Screen Gems will have audiences swimming into theaters for Blake Lively’s The Shallows a few days earlier, moving it from June 24 to June 29, 2016.
In the taut thriller The Shallows, penned by Tony Jaswinski, Nancy (Blake Lively) is surfing alone on a secluded beach when she is attacked by a great white shark and stranded just a short distance from shore. Though she is only 200 yards from her survival, getting there proves the ultimate contest of wills.
It was directed by Orphan and House of Wax‘s Jaume Collet-Serra.
Screen Gems has also pulled Patient Zero from release.
Stefan Ruzowitzky directs the film that was originally slated for release on September 2, 2016. A new date is to be set soon.
“An unprecedented global pandemic of a super strain of rabies has turned the majority of humankind into highly intelligent, streamlined killers known as ‘The Infected.’ One victim, Morgan (Matt Smith), who is asymptomatic and can communicate with the infected, leads the last survivors on a hunt for Patient Zero and a cure.”
This pandemic thriller stars Natalie Dormer (“Game of Thrones”), Matt Smith (“Doctor Who,” Terminator Genisys) and Academy Award nominee Stanley Tucci (The Hunger Games), with John Bradley (“Game of Thrones”), and Agyness Deyn (Clash of the Titans).
