There have been a lot of speculations surrounding the release of Christopher Nolan’s new film, Tenet, but we finally know when it’s going to hit the theaters. Warner Bros. pushed back its theatrical release to July 31st.

Tenet was originally scheduled for a July 17 release, but it was unclear if theaters are going to re-open by that point. Nolan and Warner Bros. declined to make a decision for as long as they could but eventually decided to delay the film’s release.

Toby Emmerich, chairman of Warner Bros. Pictures Group, described Tenet as “a global tentpole of jaw-dropping size, scope, and scale” and said they’re proud to bring it to theaters around the world.

Its July 17th spot is now reserved for the 10th-anniversary screening of Nolan’s film Inception, which will come with an extended sneak peek at Tenet. In addition to pushing this movie back by two weeks, Warner Bros. also delayed Wonder Woman 1984 from August 14th to October 2nd.

Tenet stars John David Washington, Robert Pattinson, Elizabeth Debicki, and Kenneth Branagh, and it’s been described as “an action epic evolving from the world of international espionage.”
