Full-scale Hollywood musicals are a thinner category than comedy or action.
Cross-genre titles appear on more than one FilmBase page when that helps readers browsing mood—for example a heist comedy under both Action and Comedy—without changing the studio listing or distributor.
Movies
The Debut
Upcoming · A24
Jesse Eisenberg's The Debut is set for a limited A24 opening with a wide expansion, billed as comedy/musical.
A24 musical-leaning titles often platform in specialty theaters before expanding; confirm song emphasis on A24's synopsis.
Drummer Boy
Upcoming · Angel Studios (theatrical)
Angel Studios lists Drummer Boy for a wide theatrical opening, billed as musical/action/drama.
Confirm tone and intended audience on Angel's campaign materials.
Brotherhood: A Cinematic Musical
Upcoming · Limited theatrical
Metacritic lists Brotherhood: A Cinematic Musical for a limited theatrical opening under the musical/drama billing.
, limited musicals often play select cities first.
K-Pop: The Debut
Upcoming · Paramount Pictures
Paramount's K-Pop: The Debut is billed comedy/drama/music and may sit adjacent to musical storytelling depending on final form.
Until Paramount publishes a full synopsis, treat it as music-centered narrative rather than a confirmed stage-style musical.
Behemoth!
Upcoming · Searchlight Pictures
Gilroy's Behemoth! carries a drama/music billing on Metacritic's wide listing. It is included for readers tracking music-forward features that may include performance sequences.
Confirm whether it functions as a musical on Searchlight's official description.
TV Series / New Seasons
Ted: The Animated Series
Peacock · Series
Den of Geek lists Ted: The Animated Series on Peacock. It is comedy animation rather than a musical, noted only as adjacent streaming for family/comedy readers who also track song-heavy specials.
Musical TV seasons with firm listings were sparse.
Musicals are sparse—here is what is upcoming
Unlike the 2000s Broadway-adaptation boom, current calendars show fewer wide musicals with explicit "musical" billing. A24's The Debut (limited 11, wide) is the clearest comedy/musical listing. Angel Studios' Drummer Boy carries musical/action/drama billing. Brotherhood: A Cinematic Musical opens limited.
Paramount's K-Pop: The Debut and Searchlight's Behemoth! are music-forward narratives that may or may not function as traditional musicals—FilmBase flags them with that caution instead of over-claiming song-and-dance structure.
If a studio announces a full musical with numbers and a Friday, it will earn a straightforward title card on a future pass. Until then, this page stays with billed musicals and clearly adjacent music features only.
Where musicals still appear
Beyond the title cards above, music-forward holiday and awards programming can still add limited musical events after FilmBase's latest snapshot. Trafalgar and Fathom-style bookers sometimes announce concert-musical hybrids with short booking windows. Those belong here when a public weekend is posted.
Until a major studio locks another wide song-and-dance feature, The Debut, Drummer Boy, and Brotherhood: A Cinematic Musical remain the concrete upcoming musical billings on the current calendars. K-Pop: The Debut and Behemoth! stay labeled as music-centered narratives pending official synopses that clarify whether they function as musicals.
