Searching for exciting new family movies to enjoy together? The Billboard Family calendar presents a comprehensive roundup of the most anticipated kid and family movie releases for 2025. To ensure a fun movie night for everyone, we?ve included only films rated PG, or those expected to receive a PG rating, making them suitable for a wide audience. This resource is perfect for parents looking to keep their children entertained with age-appropriate options.
2025 is set to be a fantastic year for family-friendly films. The winter and spring months will kick off with thrilling titles for kids, starting with January?s Paddington in Peru, the delightful third installment in the beloved series featuring the charming Paddington Bear. Following that, audiences can look forward to March?s release of Disney?s Snow White, a live-action adaptation of the iconic 1937 animated classic that stars the talented Rachel Zegler in the titular role, promising to bring this timeless story to life in a captivating way.
Summer will bring a host of exciting theatrical releases, including June?s Elio, a Pixar original described as a ?comedic misadventure.? This whimsical story follows an 11-year-old alien enthusiast who finds himself transported to an ?interplanetary paradise? filled with intelligent beings from distant galaxies. In August, fans can look forward to Freakier Friday, featuring the reunion of stars Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan in a much-anticipated sequel to the 2003 family comedy that had audiences laughing as the mother-daughter duo swapped bodies.
As we move into the fall season, the kid and family movie landscape still holds many surprises. One notable highlight is the arrival of part two of Universal?s Wicked, aptly titled Wicked: For Good, set to enchant audiences when it hits theaters in late November. This production is anticipated to be a visual and musical feast, continuing the magical journey established in the first film, appealing to both young viewers and adults alike.
Several highly anticipated animated movie releases for 2025 do not yet have confirmed release dates. Among them is a new adaptation of Roald Dahl?s beloved novel The Twits, which will be available for streaming on Netflix. Additionally, the stop-motion dark fantasy Wildwood, crafted by Laika ? the creative studio renowned for its work on Coraline ? promises to deliver a unique cinematic experience. These films, along with others, will have their release dates updated on our calendar as soon as they are announced.
