Charli XCX fans like myself can finally watch The Moment in March, and one of the year’s most anticipated sci-fi films hits the big screen.
Project Hail Mary , starring Ryan Gosling, has had a huge amount of anticipation since its trailer debuted, and it’s releasing in March. Alongside that will be The Bride! , which has seen more than a couple of delays, and if you’re looking for some more horror-fun, Read or Nott: Here I Come, the sequel to Ready of Not is releasing this month.
Here are all the new films coming to Australian cinemas in March 2026.
