Los Angeles: Warner Bros has postponed Morgan Freeman-starrer 'Going in Style' from May 6, 2016 to April 7, 2017.

The Zach Braff-directed comedy also stars Michael Caine.

'Going in Style', which also stars Alan Arkin, Matt Dillon and Ann-Margret, is a tale of three retired men who plot a bank robbery after losing their pensions and is based on the 1979 film of the same name that starred George Carlin, Art Carney and Lee Strasberg.

In its old release date, it would have faced off against Disney/Marvel's 'Captain America: Civil War', but its new April 2017 date is currently open.

Warner Bros also announced that it is moving Ben Affleck's 'The Accountant' back by one week, from October 7 to October 14, 2016 as well as moving next year's Will Ferrell-Amy Poehler comedy 'The House' from June 2, 2017, to June 30, 2017, said The Hollywood Reporter.

In 'The Accountant', directed by Gavin O'Connor, Affleck will play an accountant moonlighting as an assassin.

In 'The House', which Andrew J Cohen is directing, Ferrell and Poehler will appear as parents who open an underground casino to pay for their daughter's college tuition.
