Ferrari will be going up against the Chris Pratt-led Cowboy Ninja Viking and Tiffany Haddish’s Limited Partners.

The upcoming animated comedy, Spies in Disguise, has suffered yet another delay, being pushed back a whole five months from its original April 19, 2019 release to a September 13, 2019, releasing at the same time as Universal’s untitled Danny Boyle/Richard Curtis comedy. The film follows the world’s top super spy (Will Smith, Suicide Squad) who must team up with a gadget inventor (Tom Holland, Avengers: Infinity War) to save the day when a the world is put in peril.

Last, but not least, the Dave Bautista (Hotel Artemis) and Kumail Nanjiani (The Big Sick) action-comedy Stuber has been set for a May 24, 2019 release date, putting it in a very busy weekend against Disney’s live-action adaptation of Aladdin and the Warner Bros. adaptation of the computer game Minecraft. The film, directed by Michael Dowse (Goon) and written by Tripper Clancy, will follow an Uber driver who is roped into a night of adventure by a detective.
