July 2026 Movie Calendar: ‘Dhamaal 4’, ‘Alpha’, ‘Spider-Man: Brand New Day’ and 10 More Big Releases

If your happy place is a big tub of popcorn and a dark theatre, the upcoming movie calendar is a total dream. This month the box office is set to be a high-stakes arena with big Bollywood spy thrillers stacked right next to Hollywood’s most ambitious cinematic epics.

If you’re trying to figure out which weekends to block off, the release schedule is also a good mix of absolute blockbusters.

Big Screen Schedule

The weekend schedule is a brilliant mix of high-octane action, mind-bending epics and light-hearted comedy.

Dhamaal 4 (July 3) The classic comedy gang of Ajay Devgn, Riteish Deshmukh and Arshad Warsi is back if you want a break from the intense action. Expect the usual laugh-out-loud, chaotic treasure-hunt madness that made the original films such easy, comforting watches.

Alpha (July 10): The first female-led spy universe movie by Yash Raj Films. Directed by Vasan Bala with Alia Bhatt and Sharvari in lead roles, this one has Bobby Deol in a menacing avatar and is designed as a gritty, high-stakes action thriller and one of the most awaited films of the year.

The Odyssey (July 17): One of Hollywood's most eagerly awaited events, no doubt. Christopher Nolan takes on the legendary epic of Homer and infuses the story with his massive cinematic vision. It will be a visual treat with a star cast like Matt Damon, Tom Holland, Zendaya, Anne Hathaway and Robert Pattinson.

Spider-Man: Brand New Day (July 31): The next chapter in the saga sees Tom Holland as Peter Parker in the final days of July. With a huge buzz worldwide, this film promises to take the web-slinger on an all-new and unexpected journey.

The Battle of the Box Office

The nice thing about this lineup is not just the size of the movies but how close together they are. Theatres are expecting big crowds, and industry analysts are eager to see how audiences spend their time and money during the busy summer vacation season.

If you want to see Alia Bhatt in some intense stunts, laugh at the Dhamaal boys getting into ridiculous trouble or watch Nolan's latest grand epic, you may want to start budgeting for theatre tickets now. It’s going to be a crazy busy month at the theatres.
