2022 New Movie Release Dates: Full Schedule Of All The Upcoming Movies Arriving In 2022
If you thought that Hollywood had a busy year in 2021, you would certainly be correct, but, you should still hear about the dizzying amount of exciting new 2022 movies coming to theaters, or on streaming, or both. As per usual, there are plenty of upcoming Marvel movies to look forward to and even more upcoming DC movies, if you can believe it. Of course, other traditional genres of the medium (including romantic comedies like Marry Me or sci-fi thrillers like the first of James Cameron’s upcoming Avatar sequels) can be found.
The following is a one-stop location for all the movies coming out in 2022 (that we can confirm so far) and when and where to expect them. I am sure that I do not have to tell you that these release dates are subject to change, so be sure to check back for shifts in the schedule. Enjoy!
