10 Delayed Movies That Will Land In 2021 And Still Bomb At The Box Office

At this point it would come as a huge surprise if Chaos Walking did anything other than bomb at the box office, because the studio long since seem to have given up on the troubled YA adaptation.

The movie originally wrapped shooting in November 2017, but the higher-ups clearly weren't happy with what they saw and had original director Doug Liman replaced by Fede Alvarez for several weeks of reshoots that added another $15m onto the budget, which saw it rise to well over $100m.

Chaos Walking was originally scheduled for March 2019 but has sat on the shelf for over a year, and despite the presence of Tom Holland and Daisy Ridley in the lead roles, there's little chance that it'll turn out to be anything other than a commercial disaster, with Lionsgate virtually admitting so by quietly dumping it in the January wastelands.

I don't do social media, so like or follow me in person but please maintain a safe distance or the authorities will be notified. Don't snap me though, I'll probably break. I was once labelled a misogynist on this very site in a twenty paragraph-long rant for daring to speak ill of the Twilight franchise. I stand by what I said, it's crap.
