The movie was in post-production for a while and then there were reshoots, probably more than once, due to the test screenings and then they stalled looking for a release window.

"Cable was right!"
Well, that's true and that's the rumor about what screwed Sansa and Arya's plotlines in Season 7 of Game of Thrones since Sophie had two movies she was working on at the same time, and Maisie had Pacific Rim Uprising and New Mutants. She had to drop out of Pacific Rim due to other filming commitments (which could have been New Mutants which was delayed or GoT related). Sophie was able to film Apocalypse at the same time as GoT Season 6 but it probably is the reason Sansa wasn't in certain scenes. Dark Phoenix filmed between Seasons 7 and 8 and didn't impact GoT.
Maisie hasn't done that much after Game of Thrones wrapped. She took a year off to work on her tech company and to do a play in London. She's currently filming a 6 episode Sky tv series, she did a low budget movie in May and she did v/o for an anime series. She's been pretty candid about not being able to get roles because she doesn't have the typical Hollywood looks.
So, doing the reshoots after GoT Season 8 wrapped shouldn't have been a problem, but it might be to blame for why Fox couldn't immediately do them after they realized that R-rated was the way to go when the It movie was so successful in the fall of 2017. The filming for GoT Season 8 was like filming three movies back to back. For as ridiculously rushed as it was, that took a very long time to shoot.

Bill Sienkiewicz has seen an updated New Mutants trailer:
https://comicbook.com/marvel/2019/12...l-sienkiewicz/
The article doesn't have an ETA on the release date.
Trailers have to be rated and many of those agencies are closed for the holidays. If it isn't rated by Monday, it won't be released until next year.
In terms of the cast social media push - Maisie has been staying off social media and limited comments on her Instagram. Her BFF Sophie Turner deleted her Twitter account a few days ago after the Game of the Thrones fans harrassed her for something she and Maisie said in cast interview on the Season 8 blu. Seems like both of them have had enough of dealing with "fans". Maisie has been getting harassed as badly as Sophie and with her tech company, I don't think she can delete her accounts to get away from the harassement.

I think that's part of the issue... Last season was a disaster for all parties, and for some reason basement dwellers have nothing better to do than blame the cute young actresses for this problem. *ugh*
Seriously feel for any young actress in Hollywood these days that has more than indie movies under their wings. Suddenly the fans think they are owed something but these folks since they collect a paycheck.
