Dakota Fanning and Elle Fanning's 'The Nightingale' Shifts to March

The film 'The Nightingale,' starring sisters Elle and Dakota Fanning, has shifted its release date to March 19, 2027. Sony’s TriStar Pictures moved the date to better position the film for the Easter holiday weekend.
Why it matters
The film represents a significant cultural moment as the first project where the high-profile Fanning sisters star together, drawing attention to their evolving professional collaboration.
The Nightingale , sisters Elle Fanning and Dakota Fanning ‘s first time starring in a movie together, is shifting its release plans.
The film will now open on March 19, 2027, a month later than its previous Feb. 12, 2027 release date. Sony’s TriStar is behind the project, and believes the leadup to Easter Weekend (March 26-28) will be a good launching point for the film, and provide female-centric counter programming against Paramount’s Sonic the Hedgehog 4 , which also opens March 19.
