You guessed it: July 4, 2026!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While movies sometimes are announced a year in advance, what made Angel\u2019s announcement unique is that they <em>already have tickets on sale<\/em>! (Kind of.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can purchase ticket codes now (at $10 per ticket) in preparation for the movie\u2019s release next summer.
