Get ready for a blockbuster summer: the Chinese mainland's Film Administration just confirmed a lineup of over 60 films for 2025—from homegrown hits to Hollywood heavyweights.
This year's season, the longest theatrical window in the annual film calendar, spotlights a diverse mix: historical drama "Dong Ji Island" sails back in time, while comedy "The Lychee Road" serves up fresh laughs. Animation fans can dive into "Nobody", based on viral internet characters, or revisit beloved heroes in the latest "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" adventure. Classical literature comes alive in "Curious Tales of a Temple", proving that ancient stories still thrill modern audiences.
On the global front, summer cinephiles will queue up for blockbusters like "Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning", "Jurassic World Rebirth", "How to Train Your Dragon", and the high-octane racing epic "F1". From adrenaline-fueled sequels to family-friendly animations, there's something for every screen-lover in the 2025 lineup.
To sweeten the deal, the Film Administration has launched initiatives under the 2025 film consumption promotion year. Expect nationwide discounts, student deals, and special screenings aimed at making theaters a go-to summer hangout.
