Warner Bros. is gearing up for a crucial 2025 with major releases like Superman and a Minecraft movie, while reviving older intellectual properties like Gremlins and The Goonies. Amidst internal shake-ups and a lack of clear strategy, the company hopes new films can draw audiences back to theaters. The upcoming schedule includes high-profile projects from established filmmakers, but it's unclear whether nostalgic properties will resonate with younger generations. With Warner Bros. facing competition from Universal and Disney, the pressure is on to deliver blockbuster hits.

What are Warner Bros.' upcoming films for 2025?

Warner Bros. has a lineup featuring anticipated films such as a Superman reboot, a Minecraft movie, Bong Joon-ho's Mickey 17, and new installments in franchises like Final Destination and Mortal Kombat, alongside nostalgic revivals of Gremlins and The Goonies.

Warner Bros. has a rich history of creating successful franchises, but recent years have seen challenges in connecting with newer audiences. The Goonies, originally a 1985 adventure film, gained cult status while Gremlins, released in 1984, is known for its blend of horror and comedy. Both movies have been cited as influential works, sparking nostalgia among older fans, but their marketability to younger generations remains questionable as Hollywood continues to evolve in terms of audience preferences.
