Remember when we were getting excited for the release of Peter Dinklage’s Cyrano? Well, We have some bad news. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Cyrano‘s release date has changed here in the United Kingdom despite only being one week away from its original release date. Unfortunately, it appears as though this change has been fully motivated by the ongoing Omicron pandemic.
Originally, Cyrano was due to be released in the UK on January 14th. It has now been pushed back to February 25th, with previews taking place on Valentines Day- Which makes a lot of sense considering the story. We’re incredibly gutted by this change, but at least it isn’t too long of a wait.
Director Joe Wright re-imagines Rostand’s timeless love story in a sublime symphony of music, poetry and romance. Whether dazzling the crowds with his peerless wit or thrilling them with his courageous swordplay in a dual, Cyrano (Peter Dinklage) is a proud officer of the revered King’s Guard, a romantic poet, and secretly in love with his luminous friend Roxanne (Haley Bennett). Convinced his appearance renders him unworthy of her love, when Roxanne falls in love at first sight with handsome new recruit Christian (Kelvin Harrison, Jr.), Cyrano devises a way to convey his feelings through Christian’s hand to Roxanne’s heart, creating a delicate love triangle that must reveal its secrets before the onset of war.
