January is shaping up to be a great month for movie fans, especially those who love horror! We’ve got a long-awaited sequel, a wild monster movie, and the first big video game adaptation planned for 2026. But there’s plenty for everyone, with a diverse range of films hitting theaters. Here’s a complete guide to all the movies coming out in January, including special limited releases and anniversary showings.
The new Harry Potter series is already different from the original, but many are questioning whether they should watch it at all, given J.K. Rowling’s controversial views on transgender people. Her statements have made it hard for some to get excited about the reboot, while others are trying to separate the work from the author to still enjoy the show. Despite this, Harry Potter remains incredibly popular and profitable, so it’s not surprising Warner Bros. is sticking with a familiar formula instead of taking risks with other Wizarding World stories like the unsuccessful Fantastic Beasts films. While trying to recreate the magic of the original is understandable, certain key moments absolutely must be included.
Starting December 12th, viewers can watch the film from their homes. Just one day after becoming available on Apple TV, F1 quickly rose to become the most-watched film in almost 100 countries, including the United States, the United Kingdom, and Japan.
To prevent a disappointing ending like the final season of Game of Thrones, The Boys needs to steer clear of predictable and frustrating TV clichés – things like shocking twists that don’t make sense, revealing events were just a dream, or focusing on sentimental friendships instead of the main plot. While most of these tropes haven’t been an issue for the show, the trailer for season 5 confirms that one potential pitfall has been successfully avoided.
Ethan Cutkosky, known for his role as Henry Mesner, is making a guest appearance on Law & Order! The show and the actor shared the news on Instagram. See the announcement here:
News came out earlier this week that John Stamos is joining the cast of The Hunting Wives, alongside Brittany Snow, Malin Akerman, Dermot Mulroney, and others. He recently spoke about the news for the first time on Today.
Okay, so Season 2 of House of the Dragon definitely felt a little shaky – like it fell into that typical ‘second season slump’ thing. But honestly, I’m not worried at all! I have a really good feeling about Season 3. There are so many incredible battles and moments still to come from the Dance of the Dragons, and I truly believe the show will get back on track and deliver something amazing. It’ll redeem the whole prequel, I’m sure of it.
I was so excited when Shonen Jump launched this cool social media thing called #JumpOshiKatsu last year! It was how I first heard about Kagurabachi, and honestly, it’s become one of my favorite new series. Along with titles like Sakamoto Days, Witch Watch, and Kill Blue, Kagurabachi is really making waves – it’s already sold over three million copies worldwide since it debuted in 2023! It’s a huge hit, and I can totally see why.
His recent science fiction film was a big hit. Starring Matt Damon, the movie, released in 2015, was praised by critics and audiences alike. However, fans of The Martian should know that it will no longer be available on Netflix after January 1st.
James L. Brooks isn’t just a skilled filmmaker; he has an exceptional eye for casting. Films like Terms of Endearment and Broadcast News are memorable not only for their quality, but because they feature incredibly talented actors who truly enhance the final result, making his movies stand out.
