Universal Pictures recently updated its 2013 movie slate, bumping 47 Ronin from February 8 to Christmas Day 2013; the Jason Bateman-Melissa McCarthy comedy Identity Thief will be taking over Ronin's original February slot.
The official synopsis for the film says Keanu Reeves stars as "Kai, an outcast who joins Oishi (Hiroyuki Sanada), the leader of the 47 Ronin. Together they seek vengeance upon the treacherous overlord who killed their master and banished their kind. To restore honor to their homeland, the warriors embark upon a quest that challenges them with a series of trials that would destroy ordinary warriors... Inspired by styles as diverse as Miyazaki and Hokusai, Rinsch will bring to life the stunning landscapes and enormous battles that will display the timeless Ronin story to global audiences in a way that's never been seen before."
As The Hollywood Reporter notes, this is the second time the film has been pushed back.
