Thescreescore – The highly anticipated, yet-to-be-titled comedy collaboration between South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, and rap icon Kendrick Lamar, has hit another snag. Paramount Pictures has once again pushed back the film’s release, leaving fans in a state of anxious anticipation. This marks the second delay for the project, initially slated for release months ago, then shifted to March 20, 2026. Now, the film sits without a firm release date, extending the wait for updates on this mysterious venture.
The creative trio, alongside Paramount, issued a joint statement assuring fans that the project remains active, albeit facing unforeseen delays. "It’s true – we’re moving (again). We’re working hard at finishing the movie," the statement read. Details surrounding the film’s plot and title remain tightly under wraps, adding to the intrigue.
According to sources at Deadline, the delays stem from the demanding schedules of the creators. Lamar is currently immersed in a tour expected to continue until December 2025, while Parker and Stone are deeply involved with the ongoing success of South Park.

While anticipation remains high, the repeated delays raise concerns. History has shown that frequent postponements can negatively impact a film’s momentum. The Marvel Cinematic Universe’s Black Widow (2021), for instance, faced significant delays due to the COVID-19 pandemic, leading to diminished excitement among some fans. Some viewers even admitted to forgetting about the film altogether.
While Paramount’s untitled comedy hasn’t yet experienced a year-long delay, the clock is ticking as 2026 approaches. While a delayed release doesn’t guarantee failure, it undoubtedly increases the risks. Fans can follow thescreescore.com for updates as they become available.
