Universal has moved the release of Leatherheads into next year to give injured director-star George Clooney time to incorporate additional footage and honor previous commitments, according to Variety.
The period football film was scheduled for a December 7th release, but will now premiere on April 4.
Clooney is also producer of the romantic drama, which co-stars Renee Zellweger.
Clooney broke his rib on Sept. 21 in a New Jersey motorcycle accident in which his girlfriend was also injured.
