These games are poised to become further proof of these characters’ immense potential as anchors in pop culture.”

“Translating these characters and stories to video games could not come at a more exciting time as we introduce the world to the Valiant Universe on the big screen with the Bloodshot release. “We’re thrilled to bring Valiant’s characters back into the video game industry and give fans the opportunity to play as their favorite superheroes,” DMG Entertainment (Valiant’s parent company) founder and CEO Dan Mintz said in a statement. In addition, The Hollywood Reporter brings word that Valiant Entertainment and Blowfish Studios are teaming up to develop a number of multi-platform video game based of Valiant’s popular characters which especially includes a Bloodshot video game. It will have minimal competition on the new date with Lionsgate’s Christian music romance I Still Believe and the STX family comedy My Spy starring Dave Bautista. Originally set to debut on February 21, 2020, the Vin Diesel-led film will now hit the theaters on March 13, 2020, almost a month later than the previous release date. Sony Pictures has changed the release date for their forthcoming action film adaptation of Bloodshot, based on Valiant Comics’ graphic novel of the same name. Moritz, Toby Jaffe, and former Valiant Comics CEO Dinesh Shamdasani.Vin Diesel’s Bloodshot pushed back for a March 2020 release Dave Wilson directs from a script credited to Jeff Wadlow and Eric Heisserer, and producers include Neal H. The film co-stars Sam Heughan, Eiza González and Toby Kebbell and Guy Pearce. It's simply a smart business move that will help the studio recoup the costs of what was surely an expensive theatrical marketing campaign.īloodshot finds Diesel playing Ray Garrison, a soldier who is killed and then brought back to life with superpowers. Giving Bloodshot an early digital release isn't about breaking the theatrical window, because theaters are closed. Rothman's statement directly addresses this concern, as he reiterates Sony's support for the theatrical window. Some industry reporters have suggested it will be hard for Hollywood to put the genie back in the bottle after this, and that once consumers become comfortable shelling out $19.99 to watch new releases in the comfort of their own homes, there will be no going back, but I think that's terribly short-sighted.
