March Movie Releases

March 2018 Movie Releases

March is the month of movie adaptations with four significant books coming to the big screen! The two films that will most likely be dominating the box office this month will be the highly anticipated adaptations of Ernest Cline’s Ready Player One, followed by the 1962 novel by Madeleine L’Engle, A Wrinkle In Time.

Then there’s the return of the Tomb Raider franchise with Alicia Vikander taking up the role of the infamous Lara Croft, while Jennifer Lawrence will also be kicking ass in the adaptation of Red Sparrow, which sounds much like a Black Widow-esque film (ballerina turned assassin).

For fans of the debut novel by Becky Albertalli, Simon Vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda will be coming to theatres near you in the form of Love, Simon.

Check out our picks and tell us in the comments below which one you are most excited for!
