The holiday season is the perfect time to hit the theaters with your family, and leading movie studios decided to use its festive spirit to their advantage. Animated movies will be making waves at the box office in the upcoming weeks, and here are four worth seeing on the big screen.
Moana 2 (November 27)
Moana 2 shattered countless box office records after hitting the theaters just in time for Thanksgiving, and we wouldn’t be surprised if it hit the $1 billion mark by the end of the year. Moana’s new adventure is as epic as her last, and it sees her exploring the far seas of Oceania after her wayfinding ancestors come calling.
The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim (December 13)
Fans of The Lord of the Rings will get the chance to celebrate the holidays in style – by watching The War of the Rohirrim on the big screen. This anime fantasy film sees the legendary king of Rohan trying to defend his kingdom against an army of Dunlendings by any means necessary.
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 (December 20)
The third film in the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise will see Sonic, Tails, and Knuckles facing a powerful new enemy. Given how amazing the previous two films did, we’re expecting the third to be quite a knockout.
Mufasa: The Lion King (December 20)
Made in the same photo-realistically animated style as The Lion King remake from 2019, this spin-off will tell the legendary story from Mufasa’s point of view and chronicle his early years.
