STX is moving the Dave Bautista family film My Spy to April 17 from its previously scheduled March 13 opening. The company hopes to take advantage of a wide-open release date that occurred when Trolls World Tour moved up a week to April 10.

My Spy sees Guardians of the Galaxy co-star Bautista as a hardened CIA operative who finds himself at the mercy of a precocious 9-year-old girl, having been sent undercover to watch her family. The film also stars Chloe Coleman, Kristen Schaal and Ken Jeong.
