Vietnamese cinema market promises to explode in 2025

Linh Chi |

The Tet movie market this year has become interesting with the confrontation of 3 directors who are all notable names: director Tran Thanh with “The Four Guardians”, director Nguyen Quang Dung with “Love by Mistake” and director Thu Trang with “The Billionaire Kiss”. “The Four Guardians” continues to make waves at the Vietnamese box office in the first days of the new year 2025.

The film also features Miss Tieu Vy and Miss Ky Duyen. Although it is a remake of the original hit Thai film, “Love by mistake for a best friend” is still an anticipated project of director Nguyen Quang Dung. Kaity Nguyen’s performance is also what makes the film more attractive and makes it a formidable opponent of “The Four Guardians”. For the first time joining the Tet film race, director Thu Trang presents “The Billion Dollar Kiss” with the female lead being Miss Thien An. With a different color compared to “The Four Guardians” and “Love by mistake for a best friend”, Thu Trang’s “The Billion Dollar Kiss” is humorous but still has depth when the main character is a girl who lost her mother at a young age and has to live independently and strongly.

Notably, Ly Hai's "Lat mat 8" is expected to air on April 30, 2025 - a project considered a revenue "rival" to Tran Thanh's "Bo tu bao thu" in 2025. In the romantic and humorous genre, there is also "Chot don" by the director duo Bao Nhan & Namcito revolving around the topic of livestream sales. With humorous details, "Chot don" is expected to air in March 2025. Up to now, there have been 3-4 horror films expected to be released in theaters, namely "Nha Gia tien" by Huynh Lap, "Duoi day ho" by director Tran Huu Tan, "Ut Lan" by director Tran Trong Dan and "Heo nam hooves" by Vo Thanh Hoa - Mai Bao Ngoc. Audiences can look forward to horror film projects that will be released in theaters this year.

“Tunnel: The Sun in the Dark” directed by Bui Thac Chuyen and “Red Rain” directed by Dang Thai Huyen. The film stars actor Thai Hoa and is scheduled to be released in April 2025 - towards the 50th anniversary of the country’s reunification. “Red Rain” is set in the 81-day battle to protect Quang Tri Citadel in 1972. The film is scheduled to be released in September 2025.
