Edgar Wright’s ‘The World’s End’ Gets A New Release Date!

This is some great news for Edgar Wright fans.

 

Until today, the North American release date for Edgar Wright’s The World’s End was October 25th. The director today tweeted a new release date for the film, and it’s definitely a push in the right direction.

 

 

That’s right! Instead of waiting all the way until the fall, The World’s End will now release on August 23rd. That’s a whole two months if you don’t feel like counting (and didn’t read the above tweet).

 

Are you looking forward to this one? Sound out below!

In “The World’s End,” 20 years after attempting an epic pub crawl, five childhood friends reunite when one of them becomes hellbent on trying the drinking marathon again. They are convinced to stage an encore by mate Gary King (Simon Pegg), a 40-year-old man trapped at the cigarette end of his teens, who drags his reluctant pals to their hometown and once again attempts to reach the fabled pub – The World’s End. As they attempt to reconcile the past and present, they realize the real struggle is for the future, not just theirs but humankind’s. Reaching The World’s End is the least of their worries.
