Originally scheduled for release in mid-February this year, Warner Bros Pictures pushed back the dark fantasy film Seventh Son again from mid-October this year to mid-January next year. Adapted from Joseph Delaney’s The Wardstone Chronicles series, the movie is about an apprentice Tom (Ben Barnes) — the seventh son of a seventh son — to the County Spook (Jeff Bridges) who has imprisoned an evil witch Mother Malkin (Julianne Moore). A young girl (Alicia Vikander) tricks Tom into helping the witch escape.
