In a brief post about some reshuffling of Universal Studio’s release schedule for 2009, TheMoviePicture.net reports that the remake of THE WOLF MAN, starring Benicio Del Toro, has been pushed back from April 3 to November 6 to make room for the new FAST AND THE FURIOUS sequel, which is finished and ready to go.
The studio said the reshuffling was the sensible thing to do, considering that Fast and Furious is complete, while the Brian Grazer-produced Nottingham won’t start filming until February or March. The Wolf Man move gives the film more of a high-profile release, as well as more time for post-production.
