A representative for Universal, the studio behind the film, has blamed the move on scheduling conflicts — insisting a Christmas release will give the film a better chance of success at the box office.

Universal domestic distribution rep Nikki Rocco tells The Hollywood Reporter, “A year ago, the Christmas landscape wasn’t as clear.”
