Director: Craig Gillespie

Running Time: 108 Minutes

Rating: PG-13

Release Date: June 26, 2026 (Theaters)

The 2026 movie version of Supergirl indubitably disappointed me, but not in a way that made me super-duper angry. More like in a way that made me go, “Oh, well. You live and you learn.” At least she had pretty good taste in music. And I’m certainly glad I saw it in a theater despite the disappointment. Which in a way is its own sort of superpower, don’t ya think? Really makes you think, huh.

TFW you hear about all the great movies coming out in June 2026 (CREDIT: Paramount Pictures)

They keep making new movies, and some of them are even worth watching. Here’s what’s at the top of the slate for June 2026:

Scary Movie (aka Scary Movie 6): My viewership of the previous entries in this lowest-common-denominator horror parody series is spotty at best. But the trailers this time are genuinely making me laugh. Plus, Anna Faris and Regina Hall are back!

Scary Movie (6) will waltz right into movie theaters on June 5.
