Lionsgate has pushed the release of Mel Gibson’s Flight Risk has been pushed again to 2025. The movie stars Mark Wahlberg.

Flight Risk, the motion thriller which marks Mel Gibson’s first time within the director’s chair since Hacksaw Ridge was supposed to be launched on October 18th, however Lionsgate introduced as we speak that they’ve pushed that release again to January 24, 2025. While this delay is disappointing, mid-budget motion films similar to Flight Risk can do nicely in January; David Ayer’s The Beekeeper is a current instance.

Directed by Mel Gibson and written by Jared Rosenberg, Flight Risk finds Wahlberg taking part in a pilot transporting an Air Marshall (Michelle Dockery) accompanying a fugitive (Topher Grace) to trial. As they cross the Alaskan wilderness, tensions soar, and belief is examined, as not everybody on board is who they appear.”

Our personal Chris Bumbray was in a position to see a trailer for Flight Risk at CinemaCon in Las Vegas earlier this yr and teased that Wahlberg is taking part in “WAY against type” within the film. “He even shaved his head to look like he has a bald pate,” Bumbray wrote. “Looks like a really tight kickass thriller, and Gibson REALLY makes Walhberg look crazy in this.” We lastly bought to see the trailer for ourselves this summer season, and yep, that is Wahlberg as we’ve by no means seen him earlier than.

The new release date will see Flight Risk open alongside Screamboat, a horror reimagining of Disney’s Steamboat Willy, by which a murderous model of Mickey Mouse brings dying to the passengers of a late-night ferry. Inheritance, a thriller starring Phoebe Dynevor and Rhys Ifans, and Valiant One, an motion thriller starring Chase Stokes and Lana Condor, may even open on the identical date. Still, it’s much less busy than the movie’s earlier date, which might have discovered it opening alongside six different films, together with the extremely anticipated Smile 2.

Gibson’s subsequent directorial outing might be the long-awaited Lethal Weapon 5. “I’m going to direct the fifth film in the Lethal Weapon series. You know, Richard Donner, who did the other four, sadly passed away. He was a good friend, and he kind of tasked me with carrying the flag home on that one,” Gibson mentioned earlier this summer season. “It’ll be an honor for me to do this. He [Richard Donner] had gotten a good means into the screenplay, so we’ve used what was there, and we saved poking at it, working at it a little bit. I’m fairly proud of it, it’s good, I had loads of enjoyable doing it.“
