The Daniels' highly anticipated event film has found a new release date on Universal's calendar, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The iconic duo, known for their Oscar-winning work on 'Everything Everywhere All At Once', will now release their mysterious new feature on November 19, 2027, instead of the previously scheduled June 12, 2026. This move comes as a surprise, given the film's initial delay from its original May 15, 2026, release date. But what's even more intriguing is the statement from The Daniels themselves, who assure fans that their next project is 'coming along nicely' and just needs 'more time in the oven'.
The Daniels, Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert, are known for their unique approach to filmmaking, often pushing boundaries and embracing challenges. Scheinert explains, 'We love to chase things that could almost be a catastrophe.' This sentiment reflects their desire to take risks and create something extraordinary. However, their cautious approach to budgeting is also evident, as Scheinert admits, 'I am nervous about having a budget that makes us not have those tough conversations.'
Despite their newfound success in Hollywood, The Daniels remain grounded and selective about their projects. They recently guest-directed an episode of 'Star Wars: Skeleton Crew', which they clarify was just a single episode, not a series. Kwan reassures fans, 'Don’t worry. We aren’t working on a whole series... We love learning new tech and meeting new cast and crew, and we needed the days to keep our healthcare, so it was an easy yes.'
In addition to their own projects, The Daniels will also produce Paul Dano's directorial debut, a comedy whose plot remains tightly under wraps. Dano will write and direct the film, with The Daniels producing through their Playgrounds banner. This marks another exciting collaboration for the duo, who are clearly in high demand in the industry.
The Daniels' ability to navigate the film industry while maintaining their artistic integrity is a testament to their talent and dedication. As they continue to create and collaborate, fans can look forward to more innovative and captivating cinematic experiences.
