New Releases in Theaters: What to Watch This Week

Finding out which movies are hitting theaters each week can be a challenge, especially with the recent Hollywood strikes causing numerous release date changes. However, with the resolution of the WGA and actors’ strikes and awards season in full swing, there’s a diverse array of dramas and prestige productions gracing the big screen this month. March brings a mix of blockbusters and new indie releases, catering to a variety of tastes.

This week, audiences can catch Kristen Stewart in the romantic thriller “Love Lies Bleeding,” where she stars as a gym manager entangled in a passionate relationship with a bodybuilder. Also debuting is “Arthur the King,” an action-packed adventure featuring Mark Wahlberg, Simu Liu, and Juliet Rylance, along with “One Day,” a biopic starring Anthony Hopkins portraying the humanitarian Sir Nicholas Winton. Additionally, “The American Society of Magical Negroes,” featuring Justice Smith, Zachary Barton, and Anthony Coons, receives a limited release this week.
