Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles release date advanced, to clash with Housefull 3

‘Housefull 3’ no longer has the Friday, June 3 all for itself as the makers of ‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out Of The Shadows’ have decided to release their film a week before. The film which was earlier slated to hit the theatres on June 10, will be locking horns with Akshay Kumar’s franchise.

This year, 'The Jungle Book' was released a week prior to avoid clash with Shah Rukh Khan's Fan. Last year too, James Bond movie 'Spectre' was moved to avoid a clash with Salman Khan's Diwali release 'Prem Ratan Dhan Payo'. Even the latest edition of 'Star Wars' was delayed due to the big December clash of 'Bajirao Mastani' and 'Dilwale'.

Sajid- Farhad's ‘Housefull 3’ revolves around Batuk Patel (Boman Irani) and his three sanskaari daughters – Jacqueline Fernandez, Lisa Haydon and Nargis Fakhri. The doting father does not want to get his daughters married and the three of them convince him about their respective boyfriends, played by AKshay, Riteish and Abhishek.

On the other hand, science fiction film 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows' has been set in New York City. It is a reboot of a Gen-Y franchise that began in 1984 as a comic series, which was later adapted into television shows, video games and films.

It is centered on four titular brothers Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael, and Michelangelo trying to save New York City from an alien threat, as well as the return of the Shredder with his own plan for revenge.
