DO in "film release" example?

Bonjour. I am guessing that using sortir for the release of a film is an exception to the rule. It appears to me that the example provided does contain a direct object immediately following the verb: "Le nouveau James Bond est sorti la semaine dernière." i.e. "la semaine".

No, la semaine dernière is not a direct object. It is a specification of time.
