Jonah Hill’s upcoming comedy Cut Off, co-starring Kristen Wiig, is currently awaiting a new release date.

On Friday, Puck News reported that the film — which was originally slated for July 17, the same day as Christopher Nolan’s epic The Odyssey — no longer has that date because it was viewed as “unreleasable” and is now not scheduled.

However, a source close to the situation tells The Hollywood Reporter that the film wrapped production in January and that Warner Bros. wants more time in the run-up to its release. THR has learned that a new release date is forthcoming.

A representative for Hill tells THR that the film remains in postproduction and that its release date was pushed because it wasn’t ready.

The film, which Hill directed, produced and co-wrote with Ezra Woods, follows two siblings, played by Hill and Wiig, whose wealthy parents stop financially supporting them. Hill has previously described Cut Off as a “classic comedy,” comparing it to Step Brothers, Clueless and Trading Places.

“I’m about to go on a run of just the dumbest shit you’ve ever seen in your entire life. I hope you left your brains at home,” Hill said. “It’s called Cut Off, and Kristen Wiig and I play two dumbass heirs — rich kids in their mid-40s who get cut off by their rich parents, played by Bette Midler and Nathan Lane.”

Additional cast members include Camila Cabello, Adriana Barraza and Chelsea Peretti.

It was first reported in May that Cut Off lost its July release date after it was not included in the studio’s 2026 release slate at CinemaCon.

Hill’s most recent directorial effort was Outcome for Apple TV, which he also co-wrote, produced and starred in alongside Keanu Reeves, Cameron Diaz and Matt Bomer.
