January 2026 Movie Releases

The New Year brings new movies, with two big zombie flicks, lots of Oscar-bait theater expansions, and plenty of streaming options. Here’s everything to watch in January!

Crazy to think we’re already in the New Year! While January has historically been a dumping month for studios to put films they don’t expect to do well, that’s been starting to change over the past couple years.

This month, we’ve got the highly anticipated 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, Daisy Ridley’s We Bury The Dead, plus Greenland 2. There’s also a whole bunch of films that got a limited release last month (for Oscar timing purposes) getting a wider release in theaters. That’s not to mention all the streaming options. If you’re looking to have a chill start to the month, there’s no shortage of movies to check out while you’re relaxing!
