Previously, Deep Water was scheduled for a Nov. 13, 2020 release date. In September 2020, Deadline announced the film was delayed to Aug. 13, 2021, then pushed back again to Jan. 14, 2022. However, it appears that Disney has decided against further delays and resorted to pulling the film entirely from their 2022 slate.

On Dec. 9, 2021, People reported the film was pulled from 20th Century Studios' theatrical release slate. At present, there is no word on whether the film will be rescheduled for a later date, leading many fans to believe that it will never be released. Ana and Ben first began dating after meeting on the set of Deep Water, and there have been more than a few jokes about Jennifer Lopez interfering with the release out of jealousy.
