Twentieth Century Fox has released a bevy of movie date announcements for 2018 and beyond, for several geek related films, so ICv2 has made several updates to its “Best in Shows” film calendar (see “Best in Shows Index”).

On the movie’s official Facebook page, 20th Century Fox announced the release dates for the four sequels to James Cameron’s Avatar. The current dates are: Dec. 18, 2020; Dec. 17, 2021; Dec. 20, 2024; and Dec. 19, 2025 (see “Best in Shows--Q4 2020”). The last news on release delays was last month, when Cameron told The Toronto Star that the films would be delayed yet again. Avatar 2 was supposed to release in 2014, then was pushed back to 2018, as part of a series of movies filmed sequentially (see “'Escape From New York,' 'Power Rangers 2,' 'Archer & Armstrong,' 'Suicide Squad 2,' More”).

There were also updates  for three Marvel-related projects for 2018, Deadline reported.  The X-Men spinoff New Mutants will take a previously reserved space on Fox’s calendar, April 13. Fox had initially reserved March 2, but shifted the spring project here (see “Best in Shows--Q2 2018”). Another reserved date in June has been shifted, moving from June 29 to June 1, where Deadpool 2 will make its debut (see “Best in Shows--Q2 2018”). Finally, on November 2, 2018, the X-Men spinoff Dark Phoenix will release, centering on Jean Grey and the Phoenix force (see “Best in Shows--Q4 2018”).

Fox has also moved The Predator from a February 9 opening to a mush warmer August 3 spot (see “Best in Shows--Q3 2018”).
