Disney has unveiled a slew of calendar additions and changes, which include a date for Ridley Scott's The Last Duel, five untitled Marvel Studios projects and a delay for The King's Man.

The Last Duel, from Fox, is set for a limited release date of Dec. 25, 2020, and will get a wide release on Jan. 8, 2021. Matt Damon, Adam Driver and Jodie Comer have leading roles in the film, with Ben Affleck on board in a supporting capacity. Last Duel recounts the real-life revenge drama surrounding the last legally sanctioned duel in France and is based on Eric Jager's book.

Disney also revealed Fox's The King's Man will be hitting theaters later than expected and will now open on Sept. 18, 2020, seven months later than its previous date of Feb. 14, 2020. Mathew Vaughn directs the film, which is a prequel to his two Kingsman movies, and looks at the origins of the world's first independent intelligence agency.  It follows a collection of history's worst tyrants and criminal masterminds as they gather to plot a war to wipe out millions. Ralph Fiennes leads The King's Man.
