The film was planned for an October 2 , 2015 , release , however , on June 12 , 2015 , it was announced that the film had been moved back to January 22 , 2016 , to avoid competition with '' The Martian '' , which swapped its original November 25 release date with '' Victor Frankenstein '' . On July 1 , 2015 , the film 's teaser trailer was released . The timing of the release was criticized as " insensitive " by the Chair of the Tavistock Square Memorial Trust , Philip Nelson , as it coincided with the week of the 10th anniversary of the 7 July 2005 London bombings , in which 52 people were killed , and with the 2015 Sousse attacks , in which 30 British nationals were killed . On September 16 , 2015 , the film 's release was moved back again to March 4 , 2016 , because the studios needed more time to finish the film 's visual effects . The U.S. trailer was released on November 5 , 2015 . A new theatrical poster of the film was released on January 21 , 2016
