Your guide to summer movies 2023: From ‘Spider-Verse’ to ‘Mission: Impossible’

All the summer movie release dates in one handy calendar.

Nick Romano

This summer’s hottest club (*in Saturday Night Live Stefon voice*) is… the movie theater! It’s got everything: multiple multiverses, Tom Cruise destroying a train, a de-aged Harrison Ford (!?!?), an atomic bomb, Ryan Gosling Ken-ergy, air conditioning, and Megs. What are Megs? They’re like Godzilla-sized sharks except Jason Statham randomly drop-kicks them in the face.
