The Departed UK Premiere cancelled?

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but I just checked the Westminster City site and The Departed's UK Premiere is no longer on the list of planned events. I did some searching and according to the AllinLondon site, the problem is that the print of the film won't be ready for the 20th of September date, and no new date has been given. We'll obviously let you know if we hear any news on this, but for now it appears cancelled.
The New York Times carried an article about The Departed written by a biographer currently working on a Jack Nicholson biography, "Five Easy Decades"
Jack Nicholson wasn't at the New York Press Conference for The Departed held yesterday, because of his recent ill-health. I was hoping to have some great press conference pictures for you this morning, and obviously we are all sorry that Jack couldn't be there. So in lieu, I have finally screen-capped Hells Angels on Wheels, that "so bad it's almost good" film from 1967, in which it has to be said, Jack Nicholson looked incredibly sexy and his talents were at least well utilised, if not in the dialogue scenes, definitely in the kissing ones, of which there were many.Check it out.
Get well soon Jack!
P.S For all the latest news re The Departed including new reviews and stills keep an eye on The forum

Thats a bummer about the UK Premiere, is there any chance it's just delayed or is it cancelled?

I think it is more than likely cancelled, sorry. Will let you know if I hear anything but just from a practical point of view, to book a venue and the schedules of the people involved are quite full, it's hard to imagine a premiere can really be put together for a different date now at such short notice
