    CinemaCon 2025 live – all the latest new movie announcements, from 2 Spider-Man movies to Zelda, The Beatles and more coming!

    Moving onto animation, the director of Sony’s upcoming animated sports comedy GOAT, Tyree Dillihay, was on stage last night talking about the new film. There’s not a lot out there about this at the moment but we do know that cinema goers will get to buy tickets for February 13, 2026 – the same time as NBA’s All-Star weekend in Los Angeles.

    Sticking with all the new horror movies coming soon to theaters, there’s also the new Until Dawn video game adaptation that’s arriving on April 25, 2025. Even though the movie adaptation won’t follow the same story, this one has a lot of people excited.

    Next up on the docket is the sixth installment in the horror movie franchise Insidious, which Variety previously reported that co-producers Blumhouse Productions and Screen Gems were set to release the film on August 29, 2025. However, that has since been pushed back until August 21, 2026.

    Last but certainly not least is the reboot of the 1990s slasher I Know What You Did Last Summer. Sony unveiled some first look images of the sequel that reportedly prompted cheers at CinemaCon when the movie’s original cast Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr flashed up on screen. We’ll be able to see for ourselves when it releases in cinemas on July 18, 2025.

    My personal favorite bit of news from Sony’s lineup has to be that a new trailer for 28 Years Later was shown off.

    The video has not yet been published online, but you can watch the first trailer for 28 Years Later above to get an idea of what Danny Boyle and Alex Garland have been working on for the third chapter of this zombie trilogy.

    Taking to the stage, Boyle revealed that “Alex Garland and I set out to make three films in this world. Each one stands alone, but they’re all linked together”. The first of these films is 28 Years Later, which is already finished, and the second is wrapping up production.

    Nia DaCosta, who wrote the script for the Candyman reboot, is the director for the second film, 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple. The second installment is also set to star British actor Ralph Fiennes, but DaCosta says that while audiences have seen him many roles, we’ve “never seen him like this”.

    Amelia tapping back in here to bring you the latest on the new live-action Zelda movie!

    There’s no way Sony could make a presentation about its upcoming movies without mentioning its latest project with Nintendo to adapt the Zelda video game franchise. Unfortunately, however, attendees at the event reported that there wasn’t much in the way of news.

    It sounds like Nintendo took the wind out of Sony’s sails because the video game publisher had already confirmed that the live-action Zelda movie got a release date of March 26, 2027 during Nintendo Direct.

    Plot details and casting are being kept firmly under wraps for the moment, so make sure not to fall for any of those rumors lurking around online this April’s Fools Day!

    One of the buzziest news tidbits out of CinemaCon so far is the reveal that the fourth Tom Holland/MCU Spider-Man movie will be called ‘Brand New Day’, and will be released on July 31st 2026 (one week after Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey, making it a great seven days for Tom Holland fans).

    Spider-Man: Brand New Day breaks from the ‘home’ naming convention of the first three movies, probably indicating a new approach to match its new director, Destin Daniel Cretton, who held Shang-Chi for Marvel previously.

    Comic fans will instantly recognize the name ‘Brand New Day’, however, and probably won’t have very good feelings about it – but we don’t think the story will have anything major to do with the comic’s story other than a name that evokes a fresh start.

    We also got news that the Spider-Verse conclusion, Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse, is coming on June 4th, 2027 – or, at least that’s the plan. The movie has already had plenty of trouble hitting its dates, and was originally planned for a 2024 release.

    Some of the creative team went on-stage during CinemaCon and presented a teaser with apparently great-looking new animation, but with audio taken from the previous movies.

    If – like TechRadar’s Senior Entertainment Reporter, Tom Power – you can’t believe you have to wait so long to find out how Miles Morales’ story ends, then the good news is that some first look images were posted on social media for fans to enjoy (see below).

    Perhaps the most interesting news of the show came about Sam Mendes’ upcoming suite of movies about The Beatles. For a start, we got a big casting announcement of huge names playing the fab four:

    • George Harrison: Joseph Quinn (Fantastic Four, A Quiet Place: Day One)
    • John Lennon: Harris Dickinson (Babygirl, Triangle of Sadness)
    • Paul McCartney: Paul Mescal (Gladiator II, Aftersun)
    • Ringo Starr: Barry Keoghan (Saltburn, The Banshees of Inisherin)

    In case you’re not aware, the plan is to make four movies, each centering on a different member of the group. And the really juicy part is that all four movies are slated to come out during April 2028.

    I have to say, I’m struggling with this one. That’s quite a cast, and Mendes has made some great stuff, but I feel like people are going to be pretty burnt out by the time they come to Ringo’s movie (and you know it’s going to be poor Ringo last).

    Matt Bolton, Managing Editor for Entertainment, stepping in here to say that while we only got a very brief appearance from filmmaker Zach Cregger about his upcoming Resident Evil movie, I’m excited about this one – despite knowing very little about it.

    Cregger directed the wonderfully bonkers Barbarian, and has a new movie planned for release during 2025 called Weapons starring Josh Brolin and Julia Garner, among others.

    He spent his time on stage talking about how much he loves the video game series, and I’m sure fans of the series are looking forward to seeing what version of that he chooses to tap into.

    I gotta say, I’m equally fine if he takes it off into its own direction – I unashamedly love (most) of the Milla Jovovich Resident Evil movie series, and that really benefited from finding its own vibe within the (ahem) umbrella of the franchise.

    Don’t worry if you’re not at CinemaCon 2025, because we’re here to make sure you don’t miss out any of the biggest new movie announcements from the industry event.

    The first big Hollywood studio presentation was from Sony Pictures, with CEO Tom Rothman kicking things off with a welcome speech. According to attendees that walked through the casino hotel doors of Caesars Palace in Las Vegas yesterday (March 31) evening, it sounds like it was a packed lineup of new movies with many directors taking the stage to promote their films.
