Ben Affleck’s ‘Live By Night’ coming out in 2017, Warner Bros. dates other projects

Ben Affleck’s Live By Night, the long-awaited follow-up to the 2012 Best Picture Oscar winner Argo, finally has a release date. The film will be coming out in 2017.

Affleck, who filmed the project after completing Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, stars as a Boston bootlegger who sets up an empire in Florida during Prohibition. Like Gone Baby Gone, it is based on a Dennis Lehane novel. At one point, Live By Night was supposed to come out this year, but it was pushed to 2017 over the summer. The film also stars Chris Messina, Sienna Miller, Scott Eastwood and Zoe Saldana.

Now, The Hollywood Reporter confirms that the movie will be out on Oct. 20, 2017.

Warner Bros. has also scheduled the Ice Cube comedy Fist Fight for Feb. 17, 2017. The horror movie Annabelle 2 will be out on May 19, 2017. Lastly, the studio has scheduled an untitled “event movie” for Aug. 11, 2017.

Affleck will be seen in this weekend’s Batman v Superman as Batman/Bruce Wayne. He’s also going to make a cameo in August’s Suicide Squad. The actor also stars in October’s The Accountant with Anna Kendrick. Although he was not nominated for directing Argo, he did win an Oscar for the film as producer.
