Comments on: Steven Soderbergh’s Spy Thriller, ‘Knockout,’ Becomes ‘Haywire’ & Now Set For A January 2011 Release https://staging2.theplaylist.net/steven-soderberghs-spy-thriller-20100611/ Fri, 13 Nov 2020 08:01:19 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.7.2 By: kevinjagernauth https://staging2.theplaylist.net/steven-soderberghs-spy-thriller-20100611/#comment-20042 Thu, 17 Jun 2010 04:31:08 +0000 http://theplaylist.wpengine.com/?p=2725#comment-20042 "Shutter Island" moved from October to February — another supposed "dump month" — and did great box office, certainly helped by a lack of competition.

Lionsgate are probably trying to do the same. Get Soderbergh's genre film in theaters when releases are generally light/not great.

That said, the other big Jan. 2011 release is Green Hornet so don't be surprised if "Haywire" moves again to get out of its way.

Everybody knows that January is where movies go to die, and that "screens are hard to come by" is a bullshit smokescreen.

I've been very excited about this project since you first wrote about it.
