New Movie Releases This Year
There are many new movies that will be released in 2024. Some new movie releases that you will see this year are-
1. Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire
Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire will be the fifth film in the MonsterVerse that will be released after Godzilla vs. Kong. The release date for this movie is confirmed
and it will be released on 29 March 2024 worldwide, whereas, in Japan, the release is set for 26 April 2024.
This film is expected to dive deeper into the past of Kong and Godzilla and where they originate from. In the film, Kong and Godzilla will come together to fight a new threat that may wipe out their own existence as well as humans.
The official trailer for the new Godzilla and Kong Movie was released by Warner Bros Pictures back in December 2023. Toward the end of the trailer, we can see Mini Kong and also a new form of Godzilla with some new powers.
2. Kung Fu Panda 4
Kung Fu Panda 4 will be the fourth film in the Kung Fu Panda series. The last Kung Fu Panda 3 was released back in 2016, and now DreamWorks Animation has finally decided to release the fourth part of the series after 8 years.
Throughout the three previous parts, we see how Po becomes a Dragon Warrior and entrails on his Kung Fu Journey. The storyline of the Kung Fu Panda 4 is based on Po searching for his successor, i.e., the new Dragon Warrior. In the movie, we will also see Po facing a new enemy ‘The Chameleon.’
Kung Fu Panda 4 was kind of unexpected, as it was supposed to be a trilogy. However, it was confirmed by DreamWorks Animation that Kung Fu Panda 4 is in development. The release date of the movie has been confirmed and it will be released on 8 March 2024.
3. Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes
Another big release that is planned for this year is the Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes. This movie is the fourth movie that is to be released in the Planet of the Apes series. The Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes will follow the events of the previous movie War for the Planet of the Apes.
This news will be set 300 years ahead of the last movie where the apes’ civilization has not only evolved but grown immensely as compared to the humans. The movie will be filled with a lot of suspense and adventure and might stand up to the expectations of the fans of the Planet of the Apes franchise.
The teaser trailer for the Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes was released in November 2023, and the movie is all set to release in the second quarter of 2024. The movie is set to release worldwide on 24 May 2024.
4. Deadpool 3
Deadpool 3 is going to be one of the biggest Marvel releases this year. This movie will bring together two superheroes, i.e., Deadpool and everyone’s beloved Wolverine. This movie will be the sequel to Deadpool 2, and fans may see Deadpool and Wolverine on a mission together assisting each other.
Ryan Reynolds will take up the role of Deadpool, whereas Hugh Jackman will once again come back to his role of Wolverine. MCU is trying to do the same thing with Deadpool 3 that they did with Spider-Man: No Way Home, i.e., bringing back characters from old films through the multiverse concept.
No trailer or teaser has been released for this movie, but we can expect it anytime soon. But two things that are confirmed with the film are the release date, i.e., 26 July 2024, and the return of the Wolverine.
5. Joker: Folie à Deux
DC has plans for the sequel to the Joker movie, and it will be released on 4 October 2024. When Joker was released, it was supposed to be standalone so a sequel was not expected from DC. But DC confirmed a Joker sequel in 2022.
Talking about the cast, Joaquin Phoenix will be seen as Jocker (Aurther Flex), and Lady Gaga will be seen as Harley Quinn. The story will move ahead from where the first part ended, and we may see more of Harley Quinn helping Joker in crime.
Not much has been shared about the plot yet. Fans will have more information about the screenplay once the official trailer is released.
