Deadpool 3, Beetlejuice 2 and Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire top Fandango‘s list of most-anticipated wide-release movies in 2024. (See the full top 10 and other charts below.)

The NBCUniversal-owned digital movie brand surveyed 8,000 ticket buyers about the titles they’re most looking forward to, and also gauged their mood heading into next year. About 81% of respondents say they are more excited about films in 2024 than they were heading into 2023, with 88% declaring their intention to go to multiple films.

The mindset of the moviegoer has been difficult to discern in recent years as Covid and the streaming boom upended decades of traditional business methods. Theatrical moviegoing has gradually reasserted its potential as a profit source, but studios still appear likely to release fewer films next year, in part due to the strikes. The Fandango charts also show that Hollywood has become ever more reliant on familiar IP. After the Deadpool, Beetlejuice and Ghostbusters franchise installments, the rest of the most-anticipated Top 10 includes, in order, Dune: Part Two; Venom 3; Despicable Me 4; Inside Out 2; Lord of the Rings: The War of Rohirrim; Gladiator 2; and A Quiet Place: Day One.

The annual survey also found that 80% of ticket buyers feel that the moviegoing experience cannot be recreated at home. Accordingly, 71% said they plan to see movies in a premium format like Dolby or Imax in 2024.
