Los Angeles, CA (CNS) - Jennifer Aniston's anticipated film "He's Just Not That Into You" is pushed back to a later date, New Line Cinema confirms.

The star-studded romantic comedy film will no longer be released on August 1, but at a tentative date of October 24 instead.

A rep for the film studio tells Life & Style, "That is the tentative date [October 24], though I don't believe its 100 percent official yet. It's definitely no longer August 1."

The film, according to a source, has been quietly moved because of the audience share of the "Sex and the City" film. The two films are expected to reach the same viewers' demographic, which is mainly females.

The source adds that Aniston had been looking forward to going against Sarah Jessica Parker's film because she believes that her movie will attract more viewers because of its cast.

The insider says, "Jen was looking forward to going up against the 'Sex' ensemble - especially Sarah Jessica - and some of the other summer blockbusters. They've never been friends in real life, and probably never will be."

"But Jen's convinced her film has a superior story and more attractive cast. People are going to compare these movies and she doesn't regret taking part in the project. This is the script that lured her back to work after taking two years off. She's standing by her belief that it is a worthy picture."

"He's Just Not That Into You" also stars Drew Barrymore, Ben Affleck, Scarlett Johansson, Justin Long, Jennifer Connelly, Ginnifer Goodwin, Kevin Connolly, and Bradley Cooper.
