Universal Pushes Back Release Date of Colleen Hoover Movie 'Reminders of Him' to March 2026
In a move that will give the film an extra boost in box office potential, Universal Pictures has announced that the release date for its highly anticipated adaptation of Colleen Hoover's best-selling novel "Reminders of Him" is being pushed back from February 5, 2026 to March 13, 2026.
According to industry insiders, the new release date will allow the film to capitalize on rolling school holidays, which are expected to bring in a larger audience. The decision comes as no surprise, given the success of similar films that have taken advantage of these breaks.
"We're thrilled with the new release date," said Vanessa Caswill, director of the film. "It's going to give us an even bigger platform to share this incredible story with audiences worldwide."
"Reminders of Him" is a transformative feature film about motherhood, forgiveness, and the power of one love to heal even the most shattered heart. The movie stars Maika Monroe, who gained mainstream success with last year's horror hit "Longlegs," and is directed by Caswill.
The film was originally set to take the place of an untitled Blumhouse film, but its new release date has sparked excitement among fans of Colleen Hoover's work. The author's novels have been praised for their emotional depth and relatable characters, making them a favorite among readers worldwide.
"Colleen Hoover's books are known for their ability to tug at the heartstrings," said industry expert, John Nacion. "We expect 'Reminders of Him' to be just as impactful on screen."
The new release date has also sparked interest among fans who have been eagerly awaiting the film adaptation. With its powerful themes and talented cast, "Reminders of Him" is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated movies of 2026.
As production continues, Universal Pictures remains tight-lipped about any potential changes or updates. However, with the new release date in place, fans can expect an even bigger and more emotional experience when "Reminders of Him" hits theaters next year.
