Verified Evidence: resolved · Fact Lock: locked · QA: pass
SuperHeroHype and ComingSoon.net report that Ray Gunn, an upcoming animated science-fiction film featuring Scarlett Johansson’s voice, is scheduled to arrive on Netflix on December 18, 2026.

The reported date places Ray Gunn in a crowded release frame. The two reports describe December 18 as “Dunesday,” saying the date also includes the theatrical releases of Dune: Part Three and Avengers: Doomsday. The supplied coverage characterizes the overlap as a release clash, but does not independently establish the theatrical schedules for those films.

According to the same coverage, Ray Gunn will also receive a limited theatrical release in select theaters on December 4, 2026, ahead of its reported Netflix launch. That gives the film a two-stage release path in the published schedule, although the supplied reports do not include direct confirmation from Netflix or the film’s producers.

The reports identify Brad Bird as the film’s director and describe Johansson as part of its voice cast. They present Ray Gunn as an animated science-fiction project, placing its reported streaming debut alongside a date already framed in the coverage around major theatrical titles.

The available evidence is limited to the two supplied publisher items. Their wording, byline and publication date are substantially identical, so they appear to be syndicated or cross-posted coverage rather than independent corroboration. For now, the December 18 Netflix date and the December 4 limited theatrical date should therefore be understood as reported scheduling information, not as directly confirmed announcements in the supplied material.
