“Don’t let the now… destroy the forever.” It’s official! It’s coming to theaters soon! Lionsgate Studios has announced they will release Francis Ford Coppola’s Megalopolis in the US this fall.

It’s now set to open in theaters starting on September 27th, 2024 – including on IMAX screens nationwide. Mark it down in your calendar now! Save the date!
