“Day Drinker,” an action thriller starring Johnny Depp and Penélope Cruz, will sail to theaters in 2027.

Lionsgate, which is releasing the film, has set a release of March 26, 2027. “Day Drinker” is taking the place of the studio’s “The Resurrection of the Christ Part One,” which was postponed to May 6, 2027.

“Day Drinker” follows a private-yacht bartender (Madelyn Cline) who meets a mysterious onboard guest (Depp) — only for both of them to find themselves entangled with a criminal figure (Cruz) and connected in unexpected ways. The project reunites Depp and Cruz, who have shared the screen in “Blow,” “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides” and “Murder on the Orient Express.”
