2018 Warner Bros Movie Preview

Last Updated on August 3, 2021

2017 was a banner year for Warner Bros with WONDER WOMAN and IT becoming massive box office hits, helping the studio end up with a domestic gross total of $2.034 billion. While BLADE RUNNER 2049 and JUSTICE LEAGUE may not have ended up the blockbusters that WB was anticipating, they certainly will pave the way for the new year. 2018 will feature a ton of movies ranging from TOMB RAIDER and READY PLAYER ONE to AQUAMAN. Maybe this will be the year that the studio gives Disney a run for their money.
