Clifford the Big Red Dog Pulled From Toronto Film Festival

One week after Paramount pulled its planned September theatrical release for Clifford the Big Red Dog amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and a surge in cases due to the delta variant, Paramount’s Clifford the Big Red Dog will not receive a gala premiere at the Toronto Film Festival next month.

Entertainment One, which was due to release the movie in Canada on Sept. 17, day-and-date with Paramount’s U.S. release, said the theatrical release had now been delayed and added,

“Due to this change, the film will no longer be able to attend this year’s Toronto International Film Festival,”

The film stars Darby Camp as Emily Elizabeth, as well as Jack Whitehall, John Cleese and Tony Hale.
