It’s my favorite time of the year. CinemaCon 2025 is returning March 31 – April 3rd, 2025. It promises to be a big year with all the studios returning to the big stage for the first time since pre-covid. 2025 feels like it’s going to be the first year the Industry is going to finally be back on track with no interruptions like strikes or threats of any major studio mergers or closings. This year was a post strike year so productions got back on track and next year has the potential to be big. Especially with screenings, I’ll start the speculation early. Will we get Super-Man and Mission Impossible screened at CinemaCon? Tom Cruise will almost definitely be there. For the first time ever Amazon MGM Studios will have a presentation. This marks the return of MGM Studios. Will we get some news on Bond? Highly doubtful.
After missing CinemaCon for the first time last year, Sony Pictures makes a return. With what? Who knows, but we should definitely have firm news on Spider-Man 4 and Into the Spider-verse Pt 3. We will definitely see some footage of Wicked Pt 2. Universal did 2 amazing Wicked Presentations in a row, they are going for the threepeat. This time they better do a live performance darnit. Anywho. Stay tuned for more CinemaCon coverage. Also a major EM Announcement is coming in late January. Your girl has been cooking up something the last few months. I don’t want the Industry’s biggest kept secret getting out, but CinemaCon is open to the public and you can buy passes to the event. If you like movies its a better event than SDCC. It’s less of a headache and cheaper.

(LOS ANGELES – December 12, 2024) CinemaCon®, the world’s premier showcase of theatrical exhibition hosted by the National Association of Theatre Owners (NATO), today announced that all of the major Hollywood studios will be on hand to showcase their upcoming theatrical slates when cinema owners gather next year at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas from March 31 – April 3. Lionsgate, Paramount Pictures, Sony Pictures, Universal Pictures/Focus Features, The Walt Disney Studios and Warner Bros. Pictures will all preview their upcoming theatrical releases, while for the first time, Amazon MGM Studios will join the CinemaCon main stage studio presentations at The Colosseum of Caesars Palace, with additional programming to be announced.
“We are thrilled and honored to welcome back all of our studio partners, with the addition of Amazon MGM Studios to this coming year’s CinemaCon line-up as a clear sign of support of the theatrical moviegoing business,” said NATO President and CEO Michael O’Leary. “This powerhouse line-up of the world’s greatest film-making studios speaks directly to the cultural and economic power of the cinema. Our friends in the studios know that movie fans want to see the magic they make on the big screen, and they also know that movies that start their journey in the theatre are more successful than those that do not. We applaud their commitment to theatrical exhibition and look forward to an amazing week seeing all the great stories they are bringing to movie fans in the year ahead.”
“We are grateful for the continued support from the studios, filmmakers and stars, vendors and of course our NATO members, the theatre owners,” says CinemaCon Managing Director Mitch Neuhauser. “We’ve got some exciting surprises and changes in store for next year’s CinemaCon and we can’t wait to welcome everyone back to Las Vegas.”
