Shah Rukh Khan’s King 'sandwiched' between Avengers Doomsday and Dune 3: Can December handle them all?
The Avengers can take on a lot of things in different countries, but when it comes to facing SRK's star power in India...well, good luck to them. Shah Rukh Khan's King has a confirmed December 24, 2026 release date. And while the film isn't facing Avengers: Doomsday or Dune: Part Three in a direct same-day clash, the film is entering one of the busiest holiday periods on the 2026 release…
Shah Rukh Khan's upcoming film, King, is set to release on December 24, 2026. While King faces competition from Avengers: Doomsday and Dune: Part Three in December, the three films do not open on the same day. Dune: Part Three and Avengers: Doomsday are scheduled to open on December 18, six days before King. Then, on December 25, Jumanji: The Open World is also set to release, adding to the busy holiday period.
Despite the crowded December calendar, Shah Rukh Khan remains unfazed, describing King as "the centre's tasty tikki" in an Ask SRK session. The film marks the actor's return to theatrical releases after a two-year break, making it a significant comeback year for Khan.
