The year 2022 is here, and hopefully it won’t feel like 2020 part two. Back then, as the world shut down in an attempt to stop the spread of covid-19, most major movies were delayed—and no one wants a sequel to that. Last year began to buck the trend, culminating in the record-breaking release of Spider-Man: No Way Home. But at the start of the year, things seem to be swinging back the other way.
All of which is to say everything that you’re about to read is subject to change. Some of the movies scheduled to come out this year were supposed to come out in 2020 so you know studios have no qualms just pushing them back again. New movies will be added, some movies will be removed, and releases have already started to shift in the first two weeks of the year. For now though, what follows is a huge chunk of the biggest, best, most exciting sci-fi, fantasy, horror, and genre films currently scheduled for release in 2022, with more sure to come.
