Lawyers for 20th Century Fox and Warner Bros have agreed to let a federal judge decide whether Warner Bros will be allowed to release "Watchmen" on March 6th, forgoing a jury trial that could have put the film's future into even longer limbo.
In court papers filed Monday with US District Judge Gary A. Feess, attorneys for Fox and Warner Bros jointly said they would let the judge decide on January 20th whether Fox could block the film's theatrical distribution, as Fox has been seeking all along as part of its copyright infringement lawsuit against Warner Bros.
In a preliminary ruling issued December 24th, Feess said Fox, and not Warner Bros, owned the right to distribute the film. In his December ruling, the judge urged the studios to negotiate a settlement, but no deal has been reached.
If Fox delays the film, will you avoid watching future Fox movies?
