The Big Picture Warner Bros. is yet again shuffling around the release dates of some of its titles, including M. Night Shyamalan's Trap, one of the most anticipated horror titles of the summer. The studio had previously pushed the release date back a week from August 2 to August 9 but is now setting it back to its original date of August 2, according to Deadline. The latest change will pit Trap against fellow genre title, Cuckoo starring Hunter Schafer.

Audiences got a first taste of what's in store in Trap when a sneak peek was released at this year's ComicCon, followed by an extended official trailer released a week later. The trailer presented the film's premise as the evil protagonist known as The Butcher is seen working hard to outsmart law enforcement.
