It is a bit weird to have it announced for that date already.... so I am wondering if it is a placeholder date and that it might come sooner than than that......

Your response is obviously far more direct and makes me wonder why Roadshow didn't get the title given they had the first and its still a Lionsgate title.

I know we are going off topic but am very disappointed no Australian release of John Wick 2 scheduled.

In the UK Warner the distributor here accepted 23 seconds of censorship cuts from the BBFC so it would be rated age 15 rather than an uncut age 18 rating. Is released in cinemas in a few weeks.

If we do happen to pick it up, I'll be sure to let you know."

So it turns out that distributor eOne has the rights in Australia and according to numerous recent requests from people on Twitter asking why its not coming out to concicide with the U.S release their reply is that they are waiting to confirm screen count with the cinema chains before being able to schedule its release. It hasn't been classified by the OFLC yet either.
