Movies Releasing in Theaters in March 2024

While some audiences choose to wait for their favorite films on streaming, many still find themselves seeing movies in theaters and continue to enjoy them on the big screen. Of course, the offerings have been somewhat slim over the last two months, with smaller franchises debuting at the box office.

In February 2024, for example, we’ve seen the releases of Argylle, Lisa Frankenstein, and Adam the First, but the upcoming month appears to be even more promising, with a slew of highly anticipated films slated to hit theaters. Fans of the Kung Fu Panda and the Ghostbusters franchises, in particular, will have a great time at the movies this time around. So, without further ado, here is the list of every movie coming to theaters in March 2024.

Dune: Part Two

Denis Villeneuve’s masterpiece, Dune, received six Academy Awards in 2021 for its outstanding production values and musical score. The filmmaker teased fans that the sequel, Dune: Part Two, would be even better, and the periodic delays made us unable to endure the wait any longer.

The second film, based on Frank Herbert’s Dune novel series, will reunite Paul Atriedes with Chani and the Fremen as he seeks revenge on the House Harkonnen, who are responsible for the murder of House Atriedes, including his father, Duke Leto. Dune: Part Two will be released in theaters on Mar. 1.

Kung Fu Panda 4

However, while Po takes it easy in the mortal realm, a mysterious villain named Chameleon is determined to unleash the villains Po has vanquished into the spirit realm.

The Ghostbusters franchise has been around for nearly four decades, although only four films have been made, including the 2016 remake.

In the forthcoming film, The Spengler family returns to New York City to team up with the original Ghostbusters, who have supposedly developed a new research facility to make their ghost-hunting more efficient. However, when an incident involving an artifact unleashes an ancient evil into the world, it is up to both the old and new Ghostbusters to save the day once more.
