Sony Pictures has confirmed that the new baseball comedy, The Comeback, will open on July 30 2027. The studio noted the late-summer date follows reports from several industry outlets that placed the film in a July 2027 window. Earlier this year trackers listed the project for a July slot. Sony’s announcement ends speculation and locks the calendar for the July release.
The Comeback is Hanks’ first sports-centered picture in many years. The movie adds a baseball-inspired comedy to the actor’s diverse catalogue as the summer slate builds toward the 2027 season.
