Honestly, April 2023 is looking a little light when it comes to must-see premieres. (Maybe catch up on all the shows you haven’t gotten to yet that dropped in the first three months of the year…?)
We do have a few big releases, however. On the film side, the Super Mario Bros. Movie hits the big screen, and you’ve got your choice of scares with The Pope’s Exorcist and Evil Dead Rise.
On the TV side, look out for Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies on Paramount+, Mrs. Davis on Peacock, Citadel on Prime Video, and the final season of Barry on HBO.
Check out our list below for the biggest April premieres across theatrical, streaming, and linear cable for movies and television.
