After the events of Encanto, where Mirabel (Stephanie Beatriz) helped restore the magic to the family’s home, life in the magical Madrigal household has returned to its harmonious state. The family continues to flourish, with each member embracing their gifts in unique ways. Mirabel’s relationship with her abuela, Alma (Maria Cecilia Botero), has grown stronger, and the family has learned to appreciate the bond they share, despite the struggles of the past.
But all is not peaceful in the magical world. When a mysterious event causes the magic of Casita to weaken, and strange disturbances begin to affect the gifts of the Madrigals, Mirabel is once again called upon to protect her family. It soon becomes clear that the source of the disturbance is coming from deep within the mountains, a place known as El Corazón de la Montaña (The Heart of the Mountain), where the origins of the family’s magic lie.

In Miraculous Ladybug 2: The Rise of Shadow Moth, the beloved Parisian superheroes return to face a new, even darker threat. With their identities still secret and their lives complicated by their roles as Ladybug and Cat Noir, Marinette and Adrien find themselves caught in a web of deception, betrayal, and growing darkness as the stakes rise higher than ever.

New threats loom on the horizon, and the stakes have only grown higher.

In the opening scenes, Shadow Moth reveals himself to be a far more dangerous force than Hawk Moth ever was. Not only does he have the ability to corrupt and manipulate Akumas with even greater power, but he possesses secret knowledge of the Miraculous and their true potential. With a twisted obsession to control the Ladybug and Cat Noir Miraculous, Shadow Moth plans to use their powers to rewrite the very fabric of reality itself.

The more they try to fight back, the more they realize that they are dealing with a far more complex and dangerous enemy than they ever imagined.

Marinette’s feelings for Adrien, and Adrien’s growing suspicions about Ladybug’s identity, create emotional turmoil as they try to maintain their secret identities and balance their friendships. The deeper they go into the mystery of Shadow Moth’s powers, the closer they come to revealing the truth behind their alter egos.
As Shadow Moth’s plans unfold, Marinette and Adrien must learn to trust each other more than ever before, not just as allies, but as friends who can help each other face their greatest fears and weaknesses. In an epic battle between the forces of light and dark, Ladybug and Cat Noir will have to find the courage to confront the past and ultimately discover the key to defeating the true mastermind behind the rise of Shadow Moth

Starring: Chris Pratt (Mario), Ben Schwartz (Sonic), and new characters from the video game universe
In Mario vs. Sonic: The Movie, the iconic rivalry between two of the most beloved video game characters—Mario, the plucky Italian plumber from the Mushroom Kingdom, and Sonic, the lightning-fast hedgehog from the Green Hill Zone—reaches a new level of action, humor, and heart. When an unforeseen threat emerges that could endanger both of their worlds, the two enemies must put aside their differences and team up in an epic battle to save the multiverse.
Plot Summary:
The movie begins with the two worlds—Mario’s Mushroom Kingdom and Sonic’s Green Hill Zone—coexisting peacefully in parallel dimensions, unaware that their realities are about to collide. In a twist of fate, Dr. Eggman (voiced by Jim Carrey) and Bowser (voiced by Jack Black), longtime arch-enemies of Sonic and Mario, form an unlikely alliance after discovering a dangerous new technology—an ancient Dimensional Rift Generator. The rift has the power to tear apart the fabric of both universes, merging them into one chaotic and unstable reality.
Eggman and Bowser, driven by their thirst for power, aim to control the rift, turning both dimensions into a singular world where they reign supreme. However, their scheme creates havoc, causing random portals to open between the Mushroom Kingdom and Green Hill Zone, pulling in characters from both universes. The rift also begins to destabilize the very fabric of time and space, threatening the existence of both worlds.
As the rift grows, Mario (Chris Pratt) and Sonic (Ben Schwartz) find themselves accidentally drawn together, each determined to protect their world and defeat their shared enemies. Naturally, the two heroes, having always been rivals, initially clash. Mario’s old-school, jump-first mentality bumps against Sonic’s cocky, speed-over-everything attitude. But when they realize that their worlds are on the brink of destruction, they put aside their differences and form a reluctant alliance.
In their mission to stop Eggman and Bowser, Mario and Sonic must navigate through dangerous, ever-shifting worlds—racing across the Mushroom Kingdom, fighting through loops in Green Hill Zone, and traversing new, strange worlds created by the rift. Along the way, they recruit other iconic characters: Luigi, Princess Peach, Tails, Knuckles, Yoshi, and more. Each character brings their own unique abilities, making the team dynamic a delightful blend of strengths, quirks, and personal growth

In The Grinch 2: The Return of Christmas, the beloved misanthropic Grinch returns to Whoville for another holiday season, but this time he finds himself at the heart of a new Christmas adventure—one that will test his redemption, his heart, and the meaning of family. With a fresh new crisis in Whoville, the Grinch must confront his past, face his old habits, and ultimately find the true spirit of Christmas once again.
Plot Summary:
After the events of the first film, where the Grinch’s heart grew three sizes, the holiday season has become a more joyful time for him. He’s still living in his cave atop Mount Crumpit, but he’s now spending more time with the Whos in Whoville. He enjoys participating in the festivities, though his grumpy and solitary nature occasionally bubbles to the surface. His new friendship with Cindy Lou Who (Rashida Jones) and her family has kept him engaged with Whoville’s traditions, and he’s come to enjoy the holiday season in his own quirky way.
However, this year, things are different. A new holiday threat emerges in Whoville in the form of a mysterious, snow-covered villain known only as The Coldheart (voiced by a new actor), a figure who brings with them an icy cold aura and a desire to steal Christmas… but in a far darker way than anyone expects. Unlike the Grinch’s more comical attempts to ruin Christmas, The Coldheart uses an enchanted artifact, the Frozen Wreath, to freeze the hearts of the Whos and steal away the warmth of Christmas itself.
With Whoville in danger of losing the Christmas spirit forever, the Grinch is forced into action once again—only this time, he has to fight not just for the holiday, but for the future of the Whos and his place among them. Cindy Lou Who, now older and more self-assured, becomes the Grinch’s unlikely partner as they try to unravel the mystery behind The Coldheart and his sinister plot.

As they uncover the villain’s tragic backstory, the Grinch learns that The Coldheart wasn’t always a villain. This mysterious figure, once a Who, became consumed by loneliness and bitterness—much like the Grinch himself. In a race against time, the Grinch must help The Coldheart heal and rediscover the warmth of Christmas before it’s too late
