Many of the movies of 2025 haven’t been particularly exciting to me. Most of them are sequels or reboots. On the other hand, when I looked into what will be available on streaming services over the next twelve months, I found that I had much more to talk about. Buckle up, friends – here are my picks for the most exciting 2025 TV shows. These being the picks of a comic nerd, you’re likely to find more superhero content, and fewer mentions of new seasons of The Bear or Handmaids Tale.

When I initially looked at movies that were coming out this year, I was fairly disappointed. As has become increasingly common, so many 2025 movies were sequels and remakes. But despite that, I’ve been pleasantly surprised to find some unexpected gems in here. Have a look. Here are the films coming out this year that most interest me. Watching the trailer now, Mickey 17 is more comedy than I’d have expected when I’d initially posted it. But despite the quirkiness, I’m interested.

I’ve followed the Marvel Cinematic Universe since the beginning. My younger daughter started watching with us around the time of Avengers: Endgame. Before that, my older daughter had gotten into the films with us around the time of Thor: Ragnarok. She’s now 17 and she’ll be seeing Deadpool & Wolverine in the theater with a friend. Certainly not with dad.

I was disappointed in many ways with what 2023 had to offer. Looking back on my Geekdad preview of 2023 movies, so few of them impressed me. Indiana Jones and The Dial of Destiny was decent, but not what I’d call inspired. Spider-Man: Across The Spiderverse was nowhere near as good as the first film in the series. And Rebel Moon was the kind of train wreck I won’t even discuss.

I’ve really enjoyed a lot of Marvel’s Disney Plus shows. WandaVision was spectacular, Ms. Marvel was oodles of fun, and What If? was a favorite of mine, although I accept that it’s an unpopular opinion. But my favorite of the Disney Plus MCU shows to date has been Hawkeye. I’ve just re-watched Hawkeye for a fourth time, and it absolutely holds up.
