Daisy Ridley and Tom Holland’s long-awaited Chaos Walking has finally received an official release date.
The saga of patiently waiting for Daisy Ridley and Tom Holland’s Chaos Walking seems to have come to an end as Lionsgate has announced that the long-delayed film will hit cinemas on January 22, 2021. Set to debut two years after its original release date, Tom Holland and Daisy Ridley’s Chaos Walking was teased as the next big franchise for young adults. With stars like Daisy Ridley and Tom Holland at the wheel, the film was surely going to attract their wide fanbases to the cinema.
Directed by Doug Liman, Chaos Walking was delayed from its original 2019 release as Lionsgate wasn’t pleased with the final product delivered. Having faith in the Daisy Ridley and Tom Holland film, they opted for extensive reshoots that reportedly cost around $15 million. Chaos Walking would have arrived far sooner but it’s best to remember that Daisy Ridley and Tom Holland are two of most popular, in-demand actors and their work on their respective franchises led to Chaos Walking being put on the back-burner.
Don’t Breath helmer Fede Alvarez reportedly worked on the Chaos Walking reshoots with director Doug Liman. Last April, the Daisy Ridley and Tom Holland film was reportedly deemed “unreleasable,” which is why Chaos Walking went through such extensive reshoots. When Chaos Walking was announced, it was poised to be the first step towards a large franchise that would have Daisy Ridley and Tom Holland carrying it, but now, it seems uncertain if Lionsgate’s gamble will play out.
