Drats! The Green Hornet won’t be buzzing into theaters this holiday season.
The film, based on the crime-fighting hero of the 1930s and ‘40s, has been moved from its planned December 22, 2010, release date to January 14, 2011, Deadline Hollywood has learned.
Sony Pictures has delayed the release of the forthcoming superhero blockbuster — which stars Seth Rogen (AKA Hollywood’s newest “Hardest-Working Man”) — to give the feature the 3D treatment.
“We’re investing more in the film to have it 3D,” Sony Vice-Chair Jeff Blake told the site on Friday. “We love it. We believe in it. We’re going to finish ‘Green Hornet’ in 3-D and take nine months to do it right.”
