“Bad Boys 4” continues the story of Miami detectives Mike Lowrey (Will Smith) and Marcus Burnett (Martin Lawrence), following the immense success of the franchise, which has grossed over $840 million across its first three films.

Meanwhile, the third installment in the “Venom” series, starring Tom Hardy as Eddie Brock/Venom, is scheduled to be released on July 12, 2024. Unlike its predecessors, “Venom 3” is making its debut during the mid-summer season, sandwiched between Disney’s “Mufasa: The Lion King” (July 5, 2024) and Universal’s “Twisters” (July 19, 2024).

“Venom 3” marks the latest entry in the Tom Hardy-led franchise, with Kelly Marcel stepping into the director’s chair. The previous two films, “Venom” (2018) and “Venom: Let There Be Carnage” (2021), were both box office hits, grossing $856 million and $502 million worldwide, respectively.

Sony’s release calendar also includes major changes, such as the delay of “Kraven the Hunter” and a “Ghostbusters” sequel to 2024, and the removal of “Spider-Man: Beyond the Spider-Verse” from the schedule. For more details on that click here.
