Paramount has removed the untitled live-action comedy featuring Kendrick Lamar, Trey Parker, and Matt Stone from its March 20 release date, indefinitely delaying the theatrical release as the project continues to be worked on. The film, which has been shrouded in mystery, was initially set to hit theaters in just a few months, but it appears that the trio needs more time to finalize the project.
According to a joint statement attributed to Stone and Parker's production banner, Park County, and Lamar's company, PGLang, the delay is necessary to ensure that the film meets their high standards. "It's true, we're moving (again). We're working hard at finishing the movie," the statement reads.
Industry insiders had been eagerly anticipating the film, which marks a unique collaboration between the critically acclaimed rapper and the creators of the long-running animated series "South Park." The project's delay is likely to spark renewed interest and speculation about the film's plot and tone.
The partnership between Lamar, Parker, and Stone has been generating buzz in the entertainment industry, with many fans and critics alike curious to see how the trio would come together to create a live-action comedy. The project's delay may be seen as a sign of the high expectations surrounding the film, as well as the challenges of bringing such a unique collaboration to life.
As the project continues to be worked on, fans can expect to hear more about the film's progress in the coming weeks and months. For now, it appears that the trio is committed to delivering a film that meets their artistic vision, even if it means delaying the release date.
In related news, the film's delay is not the only development in the entertainment industry. The Oscars have unveiled more than 300 eligible films across animated, documentary, and international feature races, while HBO has renewed its popular series "I Love L.A." for a second season.
