January is no longer solely the playground for movies studios want to sink. And the start of 2025 is gearing up to be very exciting for people who like fun genre movies.
Consider the last few years of January releases: In 2023, we got the genre thriller Underwater and a fun franchise return in Bad Boys for Life; M3GAN, Plane, Sick, and Missing; 2024’s crop included action standouts Mayhem! and The Beekeeper.
But January 2025’s lineup takes the month to a whole new level. There’s Mickey 17, Bong Joon-ho’s sci-fi comedy with Robert Pattinson doing a delightfully weird voice. There’s Den of Thieves 2: Pantera, the follow-up to the LA heist thriller Dirtbag Heat Den of Thieves, which looks like an absolute blast. (See the new trailer at the top of this story.)
Steven Soderbergh has a new ghost movie coming out! Horror master Leigh Whannell (The Invisible Man) continues his run through classic monster remakes with Wolf Man! Guy Ritchie, who has been on an absolute heater, has a new action adventure movie starring three of his recent collaborators: Henry Cavill, Jake Gyllenhaal, and Eiza González. The Beekeeper’s David Ayer and Jason Statham are teaming up again on Levon’s Trade, an action thriller written by Sylvester Stallone. Cameron Diaz is returning to the action-comedy genre, partnering up with Jamie Foxx in Back in Action, a movie from comedy director Seth Gordon with action directed by the great J.J. Perry.
January 2025 at the movies is going to rule. See you there.
