"Wall Street" Sequel's Release Date Pushed Back

“Wall Street” Sequel’s Release Date Pushed Back. The anticipated sequel to the Oliver Stone cult classic “Wall Street” has been pushed back for five months. “Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps” was originally slated to hit theaters on April 23, but will now unspool on September 24. 20th Century Fox is apparently hoping its gala release at the Cannes Film Festival will give Stone a chance to launch the film in an international platform. Deadline Hollywood also cites the World Cup as the culprit. Sources said that while the soccer tournament doesn’t overly interest the U.S., the same cannot be said for the other countries so the international box office performance of the film will likely suffer in the summer.  With a scarce marketing campaign, pushing back the film, which sees Michael Douglas reprise his iconic role as Gordon Gekko, may be a great idea. “Wall Street 2: Money Never Sleeps” also stars Shia LaBeouf as his new protégé, Josh Brolin, Susan Sarandon, Frank Langella, and Carey Mulligan
