The Michael B. Jordan thriller has been removed from the theatrical release schedule. 

Multiple outlets report that Paramount Pictures has removed Without Remorse from the 2021 theatrical release schedule.

Without Remorse, the big-screen adaptation of the Tom Clancy novel of the same name, was due to be released on February 26, 2021. It was originally scheduled to premiere on October 2, 2020, but was pushed back due to the pandemic. The slot is set to be filled with the untitled Billie Holiday biopic, directed by Lee Daniels. 

But there’s more—it is also reported that the studio is negotiating a deal to sell Without Remorse to Amazon Studios. 

According to the official synopsis, Without Remorse follows “John Kelly, a Navy SEAL who avenges his wife’s murder by brutal drug gangsters in Baltimore only to find himself inside a larger conspiracy.”

The film stars Brett Gelman, Jodie Turner-Smith, Jamie Bell, Jacob Scipio, Jack Kesy, Todd Lasance, Luke Mitchell, and Cam Gigandet.
