In recent years Guy Ritchie has basically become a film industry unto himself, having directed a staggering 11 films over the last decade alone, yet since the pandemic hit most of Ritchie's films have had poorly marketed theatrical releases, ensuring they routinely underperform on the big screen before being quietly dumped on streaming.

Most recently Ritchie's Henry Cavill and Jake Gyllenhaal-starring In the Grey flopped at the box office after languishing in post-production purgatory for the better part of three years, but it's also been almost 18 months since he shot his follow-up movie, Wife & Dog.

This thriller, starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Rosamund Pike, was originally scheduled to release this coming October, though reports recently emerged that it's since been pushed back to February 19, 2027.

What exactly is distributor Black Bear Pictures doing here? Making these films and then leaving them to rot for years only leaves audiences to assume that something's wrong with them, even if they turn out well in the end.
