Disney Dates 20th Century Studios’ Jeff Nichols Pic ‘The Bikeriders’ For December
deadline.comJust in time for Oscar season, 20th Century Studios has dated the Jeff Nichols written and directed, The Bikeriders, which follows the rise of a Midwestern motorcycle club through the lives of its members.
The pic will open on Dec. 1 this year. The Bikeriders is based on the Danny Lyon novel, and it’s produced by Sarah Green and Brian Kavanaugh-Jones, and stars a murderer’s row of thespians including Tom Hardy, Boyd Holbrook, Michael Shannon, Austin Butler, Jodie Comer and Norman Reedus.
Following Amazon’s dating of Emerald Fennell’s Saltburn for Nov. 24, with a further expansion on Dec. 1, it’s another great sign by studios that the release calendar isn’t getting erased and capsized; many Oscar bait titles pushed further or to TBD due to the current SAG-AFTRA strike.
Also on Dec. 1 among specialty titles this year is NEON’s Anne Hathaway suspense feature, Eileen. By subscribing, I agree to the Terms of Use and Privacy Policy.
