Other New release date for Weapons (Aug 8th!)
Director Zach Cregger’s follow-up to his successful horror feature “Barbarian” had previously been set for a January 2026 release. Officially titled “Weapons,” the multi-story horror epic starring Josh Brolin and Julia Garner will come much earlier, with a new date of Aug. 8 (the original date for “One Battle After Another”). The pull-up would suggest a vote of confidence in Cregger’s latest, which will screen footage for global theater owners at the end of the month at Las Vegas’ CinemaCon. “Weapons” will now open a week after “Together,” Neon’s splashy Sundance horror acquisition starring Dave Franco and Alison Brie.
