Cuckoo (2024)

Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice (2024)

The Crow (2024)

Alien Romulus (2024)

Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F (2024)
Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F I’m not against remakes, reboots, or sequels, even if they come 30 years later. All I ask is for there to be a reason for any of it to happen. When this movie …
Despicable Me 4 (2024)
