The Batman

A reboot intended to begin a shared Batman universe with two sequels already in the plans, DC Comics’ The Batman follows Batman as he discovers corruption and murder in Gotham City.

With mysterious clues left at crime scenes indicating that Gotham City is dealing with a serial killer known as the Riddler, Batman is forced to find new allies to bring the killer targeting the most elite citizens of Gotham to justice.

Plus, for the beloved superhero, this case is personal—in midst of all the chaos, there lies a dark connection to his own family.

Starring Robert Pattinson as Bruce Wayne/Batman, Paul Dano as the Riddler, Zoë Kravitz as Catwoman and more, you can hop in the Batmobile for adventure when The Batman hits D-BOX theaters on March 4th.

The Lost City

Starring Sandra Bullock, Channing Tatum and Daniel Radcliffe, this comedic adventure features a romance novelist who gets kidnapped to the jungle!

With a successful career writing about romance in exotic places with a handsome cover model named Alan (Tatum), author Loretta Sage’s (Bullock) latest book tour takes an unexpected twist. After having read her most recent work, a strange billionaire (Radcliffe) believes that she’s the secret who can lead him to the ancient treasure of the Lost City!

Once her disappearance is noted by Alan— who wants to prove he can be a hero in real life and not just on paper—he takes off to help rescue her. However, his rescue mission quickly goes awry, and he lands the two in heaps of trouble during an extravagant jungle adventure.

Prepare to get swept off your feet and to fall for this quirky tale when The Lost City hits D-BOX theaters on March 25th!

Morbius

Produced by Columbia Pictures in partnership with Marvel and based on the Morbius, the Living Vampire comic book character, Morbius tells the story of a biochemist who attempts to cure himself of a rare blood disease but ends up infecting himself with a form of vampirism.

Out of desperation to help himself and others who are suffering from his same illness, Dr. Morbius’ attempt at a cure at first seems to be a great success. However, with the cure having given him superhuman abilities but none of the stereotypical vampire weaknesses, his “cure” may end up doing more harm than the disease itself.

Starring Jared Leto as Morbius, Matt Smith as Loxias Crown—a friend suffering from the same disease— as well as Adria Arjona, Jared Harris and more, you can feel the transformation of Morbius when this Marvel flick hits the big screen on April 1. 

 

Ambulance

Based on the 2005 Danish film of the same name, Ambulance shows the extreme acts one is willing to undertake to save someone they love.

Desperate for money to pay for his wife’s medical bills, veteran Will Sharp asks his criminal adoptive brother Danny for help. Danny’s solution? Pull off the biggest bank robbery in Los Angeles history!

When the attempted robbery goes wrong, the two brothers hijack an ambulance with an EMT and a wounded police officer onboard. During the LA-wide pursuit that ensues, the brothers must keep their hostages alive, learn to get along and figure out a way to make it out of the situation with the money.

Starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II and Eiza González, you can ride along with Danny and Will on the quest to save Will’s wife when Ambulance hits D-BOX theaters on April 8th!

Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore

The third installment of the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them series—which follows the adventures of Newt Scamander—sees the powerful dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald rising to power in the wizarding world.

When Dumbledore realizes he is unable to stop him alone, he sends Newt to lead a quirky team of wizards—along with one muggle—to encounter beasts they’ve never seen before in an attempt to stop Grindelwald’s army from growing too large.

However, with everything that’s on the line, everyone in the wizarding world is wondering: Why is he sending Newt, and just how long can Dumbledore stay out of the situation himself?

Featuring Jude Law as Dumbledore, Mads Mikkelsen as Grindelwald and Eddie Redmayne as Newt, you’ll be able to feel the rising tensions and the powers of the mystical creatures when Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore hits theaters on April 15th.

The Bad Guys

Starring Sam Rockwell, Marc Maron, Craig Robinson, Anthony Ramos and Awkwafina, The Bad Guys is a family-friendly movie you won't want to miss!

In a world where humans and animals coexist, 5 animals known to humans as being "bad" -- A snake, a wolf, a shark, a piranha and a tarantula -- decide to live up to their reputations and form a famous gang of criminals.

When they get caught after years of successful crimes, Mr. Wolf proposes something they all see as outrageous to avoid prison time: being good.

To their surprise, they start to enjoy being good-- but then a new criminal arises, forcing them to reconsider their choices.

Follow along as the gang tries to commit their biggest heist ever when this comical cartoon hits theaters on April 22!

After more than 30 years of service as a Navy pilot, Pete Michell continues to fly courageous missions. However, after being asked to train some Top Gun graduates for a mission so unique that nothing similar has been flown before, he encounters the son of his late friend Nick Bradshaw—forcing him to face an uncertain future and to confront the parts of his past that haunt him. And, if he fails to do so—the mission will not succeed.
