latest movie release 2023

The year 2023 is shaping up to be a good one for movie fans. After pandemic shutdowns and delays, movie studios are firing on all cylinders again, which means a packed schedule of new releases are on the horizon. But what to watch? The best movies of 2023 are a mix of old and new, with some of our favorite characters returning to screens, and others popping up for the first time. There are plenty of Marvel, DC and other comics-inspired movies for those who need their superhero fix. There are lots of kids' movies in 2023 that you can take the whole family to see and watch together. Horror movies are all over the release schedule, so you don't have to wait until Halloweentime to have a good scare. And action and adventure abound from some of the best in the business, with familiar names like Indiana Jones and Ethan Hunt leading the way. Plus, there's always the sprinkling of rom-coms, adult dramas and other originals dotting the release calendar throughout the year. Check out our most anticipated movies of 2023 (listed in order of release date), mark your calendar for your favorites. But be advised that studios love to shift these around — especially now that the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers have failed to negotiate a fair contract with the screenwriters' and actors' unions, who are striking and unable to promote the movies. That has caused some studios to push some of their movies into next year. But the ones that remain on the schedule will make you grab your popcorn and get ready to have a good time. And, if you're still looking for more, you can always catch up with the movies of 2022. Christian Bale stars in this Netflix film, about a detective who is called in to solve a case at the prestigious West Point Academy. When he's stonewalled by the cadets, he recruits one to help: a man named Edgar Allen Poe. That's Model 3 Generative Android, or M3GAN for short. M3GAN is a prototype meant to be a lifelike dolls kids can use to be their greatest companion. But when a roboticist gives M3GAN to her grieving niece, M3GAN becomes overprotective and vows to kill anyone who poses a threat. Will M3GAN join the pantheon of killer dolls, like Chucky and Annabelle? She's certainly got moves.  

If you're into those macho, Gerard Butler action flicks, Plane should do the trick. In it, Butler stars as a commercial pilot who narrowly averts a crash and makes an emergency landing with a plane full of passengers — only to find out they've landed in a warn-torn island. When the passengers are taken hostage by rebels, he teams up with one of the few remaining non-hostages (Mike Colter), who is trained in combat, to free them. The catch? That passenger was an accused murderer being transported by the FBI.
