Earlier this month, we took a look at the most anticipated movies of fall 2023. But now, it’s time to look ahead at all of the upcoming movies set for release in late 2023 and early 2024.
As you may have heard, the word out of Hollywood is that the WGA and the AMPTP have reached a tentative deal to end the writers’ strike. Presumably ending the SAG-AFTRA strike will be the next thing on the agenda. This is important to keep in mind for the upcoming movies because all films and TV shows have been at a standstill for months, and the 2024 release dates are tentative at best. That’s one of the reasons why the 2024 schedule looks so empty at the moment. There’s a lot of work that needs to be done by both the writers and the actors before a lot of these movies are going to be ready, so don’t be too shocked if the release dates change again. Some of them could even slip into 2025.

The best movies on Amazon Prime Video (April 2024)
March was all about original movies on Amazon Prime Video, which premiered Road House and the R-rated comedy Ricky Stanicky. The only problem with that strategy is that the rest of Prime Video's month was pretty quite on the movie front. Thankfully, Prime Video's first weekend in April is accompanied by a new original romantic comedy, Música, which may be a star-making turn for its leading man, Rudy Mancuso.
The other new addition this week is the comedy adventure film, Please Don't Destroy: The Treasure of Foggy Mountain. That's a strong start for the month. Keep reading for the rest of the best movies on Amazon Prime Video right now, and you'll find something to watch for the weekend and beyond.
