Already seen ‚Black Panther‘? No worries, there are other films you’ll want to catch in theaters before ‚Infinity War‘ gets here.
Black Panthe r continues to dominate the box office, five weeks at No. 1 and counting. But Avengers: Infinity War (April 27) is already looking to take over movie ascendancy in the spring.
It’s boosted, of course by Black Panther himself, Chadwick Boseman, who will appear with co-stars Danai Gurira, Letitia Wright and Winston Duke alongside Iron Man, Spider-Man and the Guardians of the Galaxy stars in the superhero extravaganza — which topped a recent Fandango.com poll of frequent moviegoers as 2018’s most anticipated film .
But there’s plenty on offer at theaters that’s worth seeing between now and Infinity War. Here are our best suggestions:
New trailer: Guardians, Spider-Man and Black Panther team up to crush Thanos in ‚Avengers: Infinity War‘
Writer/director Wes Anderson returns to stop-motion animation (which he perfected with 2009’s Fantastic Mr. Fox), depicting a world where dogs are quarantined on a trash-filled island to curb an outbreak of „snout fever.“ But 12-year-old Atari Kobayashi (voiced by Koyu Rankin) wins hearts — canine and human — when he sets out to find Spots (Liev Schreiber), his beloved banished dog.
In theaters Friday.
Steven Spielberg is the perfect director to put cinematic marvels, hope and double helpings of nostalgia into a dystopic 2045 future. That’s because everyone onscreen escapes to a virtual-reality nirvana („The Oasis“) — and it happens to be crammed with the 1980s memories of its idiosyncratic creator (Mark Rylance).

Dwayne Johnson is out of the jungle setting of his holiday-season smash Jumanji. But in Ramage, Johnson’s primatologist Davis Okoye is up against giant apex predators, trying to stop a huge crocodile, a 30-foot wolf and his beloved (and now oversize) albino gorilla, George, from destroying each other and the world.
In theaters April 13.
John Krasinski and Emily Blunt didn’t go romantic comedy for their first screen project together. Far from it. Instead, with Krasinski directing, the real-life couple portray parents trying to silently protect their children from an unseen, horrifying creature who attacks after the slightest noise.

It’s been 14 years since Jim Caviezel moved the faith-based film world as Jesus Christ in the record-setting The Passion of the Christ. Caviezel makes his long-awaited biblical return as the disciple Luke, a physician who aids the imprisoned Paul (James Faulkner), in Paul, Apostle of Christ.
In theaters March 23.
The comedic pitfalls of the Vermont state patrol troopers in 2002’s Super Troopers already have a devoted legion of fans (and are the subject of a popular drinking game). But in a perfectly timed sequel 16 years later, the bumbling police troop is thrust into the world spotlight during a border dispute with Canada. Finally, international mayhem for laughs.
