10 Upcoming Movies That Have Just Been Delayed
8. Sgt. Rock
2025 will kick off the new James Gunn-led DCU with Superman, the first chapter in the franchise's initial phase, Gods and Monsters. Among the extra-terrestrial superhumans was at one time planned to be a far more grounded character in Sgt. Rock.
Based in and around World War II, grounded though Colin Farrell's Sgt. Rock may be, he is set to be introduced to a more mystical and magical world. However, the development of the film has currently been halted completely.
Initial reports have claimed that Sgt. Rock has been shut down for good, though there have been others who suggest that it hasn't been abandoned entirely. It may just be that, in much the same way as Colin Farrell's other upcoming DC effort, The Batman 2, fans will be waiting a lot longer than they first thought.
The potential reason given for the delay is that production essentially missed its window for shooting outdoors, and that it will be re-assessed later in the year for a potential summer 2026 shoot. That said, conflicting reports have also claimed that the powers that be of the DC world have lost confidence in Luca Guadagnino as director. Hopefully, it is the former and the picture will see the light of day eventually.
