A slew of announcements were made by Warner Bros at CinemaCon on Tuesday in Las Vegas. Zach Creggar, who found massive fame with the latest horror-thriller Weapons, is making a new sci-fi thriller The Flood which is slated for a release on Aug. 11, 2028. Weapons prequel Gladys, which focusses on the eponymous villain and her back story, is dated for September 8, 2028.
