Box Office Mojo has some release date changes/announcements and we wanted to let you know about so you can be upset at a delay or pleased at the haste.  First up, The Eagle of the Ninth, the sword-and-sandals flick starring Channing Tatum, has landed a specific release date of September 24th.  It had previously been scheduled for “September 2009″.

Meanwhile, Fox is moving the family film Diary of a Wimpy Kid out of the April 2nd battlefield (when Clash of the Titans, Repo Men, and Why Did I get Married Too are scheduled to debut) and moving it to March 19th where it will square off against the rom-com The Bounty Hunter (starring Gerard Butler and Jennifer Aniston), the rock biopic The Runaways (starring Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning; click here to read Steve’s Sundance review of the film), and the medieval action flick Season of the Witch (starring Nicolas Cage, Nicolas Cage’s hairpiece, and Ron Perlman).

Finally, The Duplass Brothers’ Cyrus, starring John C. Reilly, Marisa Tomei, and Jonah Hill, will hit theaters on July 9th where it will face Nimrod Antal’s Predators and the animated comedy Despicable Me.

    CORRECTION: Eagle of the Ninth was never scheduled for September 2009 as it started filming in early August 2009 in Hungary then moved to Scotland. Channing Tatum and the rest of the crew was still in Scotland in October 2009 as Channing Tatum Unwrapped Website confirms.

    So, it couldn't have been released in September 2009. I think your are talking about Centurion which was scheduled for 2009 but now will be in April 2010 instead.

    I'm still waiting for the trailer on this.

    YOU NEED TO CHANGE YOUR STATEMENT, looking forward to both films.

    Thanks
