Murder, she postponed.

“Murder, She Wrote,” a Jamie Lee Curtis-led reboot of the beloved crime drama, has been delayed a few months. Universal Pictures has pushed the film’s release date from Dec. 22, 2027 to Feb. 4, 2028.

“Murder, She Wrote” will now have distance from three big sequels, Disney’s superhero adventure “Avengers: Secret Wars,” the Warner Bros. fantasy epic “The Lord of the Rings: Hunt for Gollum,” and Lionsgate’s thriller “The Housemaid’s Secret” — all of which are set to open on Dec. 17, the weekend before “Murder’s” original spot on the calendar. Universal didn’t give a reason for the move.
