Australia Moves Out of Quantum’s Way
The post-Harry Potter shuffling still hasn’t settled down.
Fox, probably realizing Australia would now be facing extremely stiff competition, has decided to push its release back a few weeks. The WWII-era romance starring Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman will now premiere on November 26.
This decision comes a week after Sony chose to move Quantum of Solace to November 14, Australia‘s original date.
The studio’s strategic shift will not only the director more time to complete the film, it will pit the expensive drama against less threatening fare. Other films (currently) slated to open that day are Transporter 3 and Four Christmases.
Australia is Baz Luhrmann’s first film since 2001’s Moulin Rouge, a project also featuring Kidman.
