What are the biggest movies coming in 2024? Surprisingly, there aren’t as many superhero films gracing theatres this year, with DC Studios preparing to launch just one, Joker: Folie à Deux, a sequel to Todd Phillips’ grounded Batman universe, introducing a new player into the mix. On the Marvel side, we’ve got four movies — Kraven the Hunter, Deadpool 3, Venom 3, and Madame Web — all suffered shifting release dates due to the Hollywood labour strikes. Denis Villeneuve’s Dune: Part Two was another major casualty of the strikes. Originally set to debut in November last year, it got pushed into March when the actors’ union barred its star-studded cast — featuring the likes of Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya, and Florence Pugh — from promotional duties and interviews.
Beyond that, we’ve got the long-gestating Gladiator sequel with Paul Mescal in the lead, a fourth entry in the Kung Fu Panda saga, Sonic the Hedgehog 3, and a John Wick spin-off film charting the tale of the ballerina assassin looking to avenge her family’s death. Oscar-winning filmmaker Bong Joon-ho and Robert Pattinson are teaming up for a futuristic sci-fi film in Mickey 17, while actors Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth partner up for a wild ride across the dusty plains in Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga. Eli Roth’s film adaptation of Borderlands, stuck in development hell for years, is finally showing face this year, alongside the Quiet Place spin-off prequel, Day One.
From Bollywood and India at large, 2024 kicks off with the Katrina Kaif and Vijay Sethupathi-led Merry Christmas, followed closely behind by the aerial action film Fighter, starring Hrithik Roshan, Deepika Padukone, and Anil Kapoor in the lead roles. Meanwhile, Akshay Kumar and Tiger Shroff will be seen together in Bade Miyan Chote Miyan, Vicky Kaushal plays the Maratha warrior Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj in Chhaava, and Alia Bhatt stars in an intertwined prison break story in Jigra. There’s also a Bhool Bhulaiyaa threequel, Allu Arjun-led Pushpa 2, and a sequel to the Shraddha Kapoor starring comedy-horror Stree.
