2024 movie release dates: every major film coming out this year
Here are all the major 2024 movie release dates heading our way
The year might be drawing to a close, but there are still tons of movie release dates worth getting excited about. Everything from Sonic the Hedgehog 3 to Nosferatu is on the way, meaning there's something for everyone throughout the rest of 2024 and the early months of 2025.
This year has already seen the likes of Deadpool and Wolverine, and (most recently) Gladiator 2, but there are still some seriously great upcoming movies in the pipeline. For scarehounds, there’s the already mentioned upcoming horror movie Nosferatu. And then, in terms of animation we have Moana 2 and Mufasa: The Lion King (aka one of the most anticipated new Disney movies). Superhero fans will also be happy this holiday season as Kraven the Hunter is racing our way.
So, in the final weeks of 2024, we’ve decided to make your theater trips easier with our guide to all the biggest movie release dates left this year. We’ve even added a few January 2025 releases just so you stay ahead of the cinematic curve!

I'm the Senior Entertainment Writer here at 12DOVE, focusing on news, features, and interviews with some of the biggest names in film and TV. On-site, you'll find me marveling at Marvel and providing analysis and room temperature takes on the newest films, Star Wars and, of course, anime. Outside of GR, I love getting lost in a good 100-hour JRPG, Warzone, and kicking back on the (virtual) field with Football Manager. My work has also been featured in OPM, FourFourTwo, and Game Revolution.
