We hereby announce that the new release date for Choke is now Friday, September 16th, 2022. WE sincerely appreciate the anticipation and buzz that #ChoketheMovie have garnered across the film space. However, this decision was taken in the best interest of both the filmmakers (Executive Producers, Makers and Distribution Company of Choke) and the film lovers (You). We therefore appeal for your understanding and continued support.
