Distant, directed by Josh Gordon and Will Speck, will open on March 11, 2022. The sci-fi comedy stars Anthony Ramos as a low-level mining engineer whose spaceship gets struck by an asteroid sending him to an unknown alien planet. There he contends with his AI survival suit (voiced by Zachary Quinto) and aliens. He connects with a fellow crew member (Naomi Scott) via radio, but she’s trapped inside her own escape pod, and losing oxygen as well. Pic is produced by Brian Kavanaugh-Jones, Fred Berger and Anna Halberg. Speck and Gordon are also EPs with Jonathan Rothbart and Matthew Hirsch. Kevin K. Vafi is co-producer. Pic will open against Disney/Pixar’s Turning Red.

Universal is transporting DreamWorks Pictures’ sci-fi movie Distant from March 11, 2022 to Friday, Sept. 16, 2022.

 

Distant leaves behind Disney Pixar’s Turning Red on its old date and will now face off against Lionsgate’s family movie White Bird: A Wonder Story and Sony’s untitled George Foreman biopic on its new date.

This movie has been dumped, likely to a streamer. Universal's page for it no longer exists.

 

Or maybe not? Dolby and Cineplex confirm a January 19, 2024 theatrical release date.

 

I wonder if worrying about the pipeline shrinking because of the WGA strike might've caused them to change their minds, just to have something to put on the calendar.
