Fans who have been waiting with baited breath for the release of Fox’s New Mutants appears to be facing more disappointment as it is being suggested that another delay is a possibility. Originally scheduled to be released last April, it was delayed for additional reshoots to make it scarier and to introduce new characters into the mix. That meant that an August 2019 release was planned but now that also appears in jeopardy according to a tweet by Scott Bechtel, host of Merc with a Podcast. His sources report a possible November release or perhaps, a straight to Hulu release in October. The issue appear to be a conflict with Director Josh Boone and Fox on How they want the finished project to look.

Fox is still toying with a Hulu release in October for #newmutants. They're trying to decide which method would have a more returnable value for an otherwise dead on arrival film.
