As part of a huge release slate announcement, Disney announced that “The New Mutants” and “Artemis Fowl” are being moved from their August 2019 release dates to 2020.

This is the third time that “The New Mutants” has had its release date moved. The film was originally set for an April 2018 release, but was moved to February 2019 and again to August 2019. This was done in part to allow for reshoots to make the horror superhero film more frightening.
