It's official: 2022 is the year of the sequel. Movie theaters have been dominated by franchise films for years, but the pandemic has crunched the past couple of years' worth of blockbusters into one bonanza year at the box office (apart from the films that are being delayed yet again until 2023). 

These are the latest dates for your calendar as we celebrate the big films (and hopefully a few smaller ones) hitting the big screen and streaming services in 2022 and beyond.

Thor: Love and Thunder, and Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness are among the superhero flicks that have hit the big screen, with Black Panther sequel Wakanda Forever coming later this year. Older franchises bring us Jurassic World: Dominion and Avatar 2: The Way of Water. Luckily, there are original flicks as well, including Jordan Peel's Nope, Everything Everywhere All At Once and David O. Russell's Amsterdam, which has an unbelievable cast of massive stars.

But delays are still happening: Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, the Mario movie, The Rock's Black Adam, Aquaman 2, Madame Web and hairandbeautybc.com The Flash are all postponed. Tom Cruise's Mission: Impossible 7 and 8 have been pushed back multiple times.

It's been tough to keep up with all the changes. But we've got you covered on the latest US release dates for 2022. If these dates are still in flux, we'll let you know about the latest changes as new dates are announced. And don't forget to check out our guide to 2022's TV shows.
