2026 promises a diverse lineup of movies, with both new stories and continuations of existing franchises hitting the big screen. Many of these films boast talented directors, popular actors, or are based on beloved properties, creating a lot of anticipation among fans. While it remains to be seen which ones will be successes, here are ten upcoming films to keep an eye on.
The intense crime drama Taboo first aired in the UK on BBC One on January 7, 2017, and in the U.S. on FX on January 10. It was created by Steven Knight, the writer behind Peaky Blinders, and starred Tom Hardy, along with his father, Chips Hardy. The story was originally developed by the father-son team. In a recent interview with RadioTimes, Steven Knight shared news about Season 2.
I never thought I’d say this, considering Donna Kelce is a wealthy mother whose sons are famous athletes, has her own sponsorships, and is friends with Taylor Swift. But honestly, The Traitors really wasn’t fair to her, was it?
TV show cancellations for 2025 include a mix of comedies and dramas. Some shows, like The Conners, had long runs, while others, such as Suits LA, were relatively new. Networks regularly update their lineups to stay competitive, but some cancellations are particularly disappointing. NBC is currently seeing this firsthand, as a show they canceled is now finding success on a streaming service.
Beyond what we’ve already seen, it’s still unclear what Doctor Doom is planning or how all the heroes from across the multiverse and the main Marvel Cinematic Universe will connect in the upcoming movie. That’s why I appreciate Marvel’s decision to reveal in the final teaser that a major turning point – potentially the end of an era – is coming for the MCU.
The film stars Chris Hemsworth alongside Mark Ruffalo, Barry Keoghan, and Halle Berry, with Monica Barbaro, Corey Hawkins, Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Nick Nolte providing excellent supporting roles. Directed by Bart Layton, Crime 101 is based on the novella of the same name by Don Winslow and will be released in theaters on February 13, 2026. Here’s what the movie is about:
During an appearance on Bill Maher’s Club Random podcast, Woody Allen mentioned that someone at The Today Show pointed out he hadn’t released any new work in over two years. He explained that this observation came after he appeared on Jimmy Fallon and then The Today Show, with the host noting his lack of recent projects.
During a recent Q&A session, actress Zazie Beetz described her favorite scene from the movie, calling it a very violent one with lots of fighting, gunshots, and even a moment she referred to as a “full blood explosion.” She then went on to share:
Despite the upcoming sequel to 28 Years Later, called The Bone Temple, I still hold out hope for the missing installment. Honestly, it’s more about what I want to believe. I enjoyed 28 Years Later and am excited for the new movie, but the jump from Days and Weeks straight to YEARS just feels off to me, and I doubt that feeling will ever change.
Following the first film’s success, a sequel was approved. Writer Taylor Sheridan, who previously appeared on Sons of Anarchy and gained recognition for films like Sicario and shows like Yellowstone and Landman, was brought on to write it. There was hope that Sicario 2 would be a major box office success, but unfortunately, it didn’t perform well in theaters, despite being a film many felt deserved a wider audience.
