Warner Bros. Discovery single-handedly upturned the entire fall movie season when it decided at the end of August to push Denis Villeneuve’s Dune: Part Two to March 2024. Prior to its delay, Dune: Part Two was shaping up to be 2023’s biggest fourth-quarter movie, and there was very little around it that seemed like real competition. Its delay has, consequently, left a potentially gaping hole in this year’s fall release schedule, one that not many movies feel capable of filling (sorry, The Marvels).
