Sci-fi Malayalam Coming Soon Movies | 2026

If even half of these films deliver, 2026 will not just be a good year for Mollywood—it will be the year Malayalam cinema taught the world that the future, like home, is a place you carry inside you.

The original Gaganachari (2024) was a delightful oddity—a mockumentary set in a dystopian 2040s Kerala populated by alien refugees and washed-up actors. Its lo-fi charm and satirical bite turned it into a cult hit. For the sequel, Arun Chandu is thinking intergalactic.

In a refreshing departure from dystopian futures, Ormakalude Tharavadu offers a warm, melancholic sci-fi. The year is 2050. A technology exists to “download” the memories of deceased ancestors into holographic AI avatars, allowing families to consult them for advice, recipes, or unresolved arguments.
