Highlights

Pathaan, Salaar are among the biggest Indian movies in 2023
Ant-Man 3, Aquaman 2 among nine superhero movies in 2023
Dune, John Wick, Mission: Impossible all delivering sequels

What are the biggest movies of 2023? From Hollywood, we are expecting nine DC and Marvel superhero movies. (After a long time, DC has more titles on the calendar than Marvel Studios). A new Ant-Man, Aquaman, Flash, Shazam, Captain Marvel, Spider-Verse, and Guardians of the Galaxy film is on the docket for 2023 — Jason Momoa, Brie Larson, Chris Pratt, and Paul Rudd jump into spandex again — along with the first Kraven and Blue Beetle movies. Speaking of firsts, Mario, Gran Turismo, and Dungeons & Dragons are looking to launch new franchises in 2023, with the help of Pratt, Chris Pine, and David Harbour. We even have a live-action Barbie movie, with Margot Robbie, on the way.

Beyond that, we have a second Dune entry with Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya, a third entry in the Rocky spin-off Creed with Michael B. Jordan, the fourth John Wick film with Keanu Reeves, a fifth Indiana Jones movie with Harrison Ford, a seventh Transformers and Tom Cruise-led Mission: Impossible, and the tenth — yes, tenth! — Fast & Furious chapter. And oh, The Hunger Games is doing a spin-off of its own. Plus, we have a bunch of other Hollywood stuff starring Tina Fey, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Salma Hayek, Adam Driver, Emily Blunt, Hugh Jackman, Channing Tatum, Robert Downey Jr., and Alexander Skarsgård.

From Bollywood and India at large, 2023 will bring new movies starring the likes of Tabu, Dhanush, Prabhas, Alia Bhatt, Ajay Devgn, Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar, Kiara Advani, Tiger Shroff, Kartik Aaryan, Varun Dhawan, John Abraham, Shruti Haasan, Jahnvi Kapoor, Ranveer Singh, Vicky Kaushal, Shah Rukh Khan, Priyanka Chopra, Deepika Padukone, Sidharth Malhotra, and Ayushmann Khurrana. Missing in action for a few years, SRK has three films slotted for 2023, and Karan Johar returns to the director's chair. And oh, Mani Ratnam unexpectedly delivers a sequel.

November 2023 movies

Dune: Part Two

Release date: November 3, 2023

The second Dune movie picks up right where Denis Villeneuve's first epic ended, as Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet) unites with Chani (Zendaya) and the Fremen, on a warpath of revenge against the Harkonnen lineage, the conspirators who killed his family.
