What other movies are coming in 2023?

(These are other movies we’re looking forward to which do not yet have official release dates.)

Chicken Run: Dawn of the Nugget (TBD on Netflix)

The chicken sanctuary that Ginger (Thandiwe Newton) and Rocky (Zachary Levi) founded faces a new threat. With the help of their coup, which includes a new character voiced by The Last of Us’ Bella Ramsey, they band together to take it on. A sequel to the 2000 film.

Crater (TBD on Disney+)

This science fiction coming-of-age film follows a young boy on a lunar colony and his four friends who decide to investigate a strange crater on the moon’s surface. The script was considered one of the best-unproduced screenplays of 2015, so this could be quite something.

Nimona (TBD on Netflix)

The fantastical adaptation of ND Stevenson’s popular webcomic—about a young shapeshifter apprenticing herself under the villainous Ballister Blackheart to take down the Institute that wronged the both of them—survived a culling at Disney with a move to Netflix.

Peter Pan and Wendy (TBD on Disney+)

We’ve seen a billion different versions of the Peter Pan story, so why not another? The director of Pete’s Dragon, David Lowry, is back behind the camera for this new adaptation, which features Jude Law as Captain Hook.

Salem’s Lot (TBD)

Conjuring franchise veteran Gary Dauberman directs this latest version of Stephen King’s vampires-in-a-small-town tale, with Top Gun: Maverick’s Lewis Pullman as good-guy Ben Mears and Game of Thrones’ Pilou Asbæk as bad-guy Richard Straker.

Spaceman (Fall TBD on Netflix)

Here’s a weird one. In a dramatic role, Adam Sandler plays an astronaut on a mission to deep space. He’s all alone, except for a being from the beginning of civilization who happens to be on the ship.

Untitled Wes Anderson/Roald Dahl Film (TBD on Netflix)

The quirky filmmaker again tackles the work of Roald Dahl in this anthology which will include the short story “The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar.”
