Transformers: Rise of the Beasts Delayed One Year

Bad news for Transformers movie fans. Paramount has announced that Transformers: Rise of the Beasts release date has been delayed a full year. The release date is moved from June 24, 2022 to June 9, 2023. 

The move is COVID related as Paramount moved their 2020 tentpole releases of Top Gun: Maverick and Mission: Impossible 7 to 2021. They then delayed those further to 2022 so that would mean 2022 releases get bumped to 2023. The reasons are many but ultimately it comes down to limited marketing budget plus limited screens means making sure one movie release doesn't negatively impact another of their releases.
