From John Krasinski’s IF To Return To Reason And More, Movies Releasing This Week In Theaters
Glue yourself to the theatre seat as May 2024 brings over 20+ theatre releases including movies starring Ryan Reynolds, Chris Hemsworth, Tom Holland, and more.
Following Hollywood strikes and the pandemic, which caused many scheduling changes, it has been challenging to keep pace with the latest films. The year 2023 marked one of the biggest pauses in Hollywood's production due to the 148-day strike. Both TV and movie theatres were not operational because writers went on strike, supported by actors.
The Writers Guild of America, i.e., WGA, and actors’ strikes are over, and May is going to bring a mix of blockbusters together with indie gems to cinemas. The theatre experience that was on hold for a while will be resumed full-fledged with over 20 films releasing in May 2024.
Highly-anticipated movies starring Hollywood A-listers Ryan Reynolds, Chris Hemsworth, and Anya Taylor-Joy to watch in theaters this summer
On May 17, John Krasinski’s IF premieres, starring Cailey Fleming as well as Ryan Reynolds, Krasinski himself, Emily Blunt, Fiona Shaw, Steve Carell, Alan Kim, Blake Lively, Liza Colón-Zayas, and more in voice-over roles. It is about a young girl who sees adult’s make-believe friends that they have forgotten.
The other highly anticipated movie premiering on that day is the Amy Winehouse biopic Back to Black, featuring Marisa Abela as well as Eddie Marsan, Jack O’Connell, and Lesley Manville, which looks into her life and the making of her iconic album.
Next week, we anticipate the release of Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, starring Anya Taylor-Joy and Chris Hemsworth, and also, of course, The Garfield Movie.
