Universal Sets Release Dates For ‘Ouija,’ ‘The Bourne Legacy,’ ‘The Dark Tower’ And More
This week Universal Pictures got the urge to fill out the company’s calendar for the next couple of years. Yesterday we heard that the studio hasdatedJudd Apatow’s as-yet-untitled new film for summer 2012. Now there is a flood of new release dates for the studio, for a diverse array of films. Hit the jump for release info forSafe House,The Dark Towerand more.
Here are the new dates. Notice that some of the dated films (Ouija,The Bourne Legacy,Snow Whiteand the Huntsman) barely have talent attached. Now that they’re dated, expect to hear decisions for casts of all three of those movies soon.

The Dark TowerDirected by: Ron Howard
Note the rather outrageous confidence Universal has inSnow White and the Hunstman, as the date for that film is also one presumed release date for the first part ofThe Hobbit. Meanwhile,47 Roninwill drop a week after the lastTwilightfilm and oppositeThe Guardians, from Paramount and DreamWorks. It could be easy counter-programming forTwilightat the very least. AndThe Dark Towerwill hit two weeks afterIron Man 3.
