Here’s Your Must-watch Lineup of 9 Upcoming Hollywood Movies:
1. Back to Black
Directed by Sam-Taylor Johnson, who led the direction of the Fifty Shades trilogy and equipped with ample experience with several other films, Back to Black is an autobiographical film that chronicles the life of the real-life singer Amy Winehouse. Several people were trying to make a biopic of the famous personality after she died in 2011, and Sam-Taylor is finally in luck. The movie is set to release on 17th May in the United States.
2. A Quiet Place: Day One
Being the prequel to A Quiet Place, A Quiet Place: Day One is set in New York with the main character, Sam, who must survive the invasion of alien creatures. Academy Award winner Lupita Nyong’o features as Sam. The film is set to release on 28th June, and you are in for an adventurous ride to the apocalyptic world.
3. Joker: Folie á Deux
After The Joker broke all records and gained massive praise, Joaquin Phoenix returns, but this time with his sweet, poisonous love story. After the brief but intense romance we saw between Joker and Harley in The Suicide Squad, Joker: Folie á Deux seems to be a romantic treat as Joker is sent to Arkham Asylum and meets Dr. Harley. What is even more fascinating to see is how the chemistry turns out between Joaquin and — you guessed it, Lady Gaga! Releasing on 24th October, the film gives exciting, risky, and adventurous vibes.
4. Despicable Me 4
While we don’t know how excited you all are to see the minions back on screen, Despicable Me 4 returns on the 3rd of July to give us some hilarious moments. As the villain turns anti-villain and almost into a superhero dad, Gru returns with his chaotic family with an additional Gru Jr. by their side. Trouble is right around the corner, as they have to be on the run to escape from the criminal Maxime Le Mal.
5. The Watchers
Based on the novel of the same name written by A.M. Shine, The Watchers is a supernatural/horror movie marking the directorial debut of Ishana Night Shyamalan. With the classic lore of a stranded person, the movie follows Mina as she meets three strangers while getting lost in an unknown forest. They are followed by mysterious creatures each night, and they must escape them while finding a way out of the hellhole. The movie will be released on the 7th of June.
6. Deadpool & Wolverine
Two great superheroes collaborate in the Avengers movie to embark on a mission. This time, we see Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman on the big screen as they star as Deadpool and Wolverine. They are sent on a mission by the Time Variance Authority, yes, you guessed right, the same organisation that sucked Loki’s blood in the series. The premise says that this mission can potentially change the history of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. While we don’t know what that cryptic message means, you can find out on 26th July when the movie hits the cinema.
7. Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga
Set two decades before the events of Mad Max: Fury Road, fans of the Mad Max series are eagerly waiting for the movie as the prequel returns a decade after the last movie. Anya Taylor-Joy takes on the role of Furiosa, with none other than Chris Hemsworth being the antagonist Dementus. Dementus is the leader of the Biker Horde, and the group kidnaps young Furiosa. This is the central plot as Furiosa tries to escape the dangers and find a way back home. You can watch adventure movies in theatres starting on 24th May.
8. The Garfield Movie
Childhood nostalgia returns with Garfield coming on the big screen this May. Among the most anticipated films and probably a successful family entertainer, The Garfield Movie is something we all are waiting for. As the cat Garfield, who can trade anything for lasagna, meets his long-lost father, he is on for a wild adventure outside, leaving his lazy ways behind. Are you ready to watch this entertaining animated movie? We sure are! Don’t forget to book your tickets for 24th May.
9. Gladiator 2
Returning more than two decades after Gladiator, the historical epic is coming to cinemas this November. We will get to see Paul Mescal taking the role of Lucius Verus. The film shows that Lucius has been surviving in the wilderness for more than a decade, and his mother thinks that he is long dead. But behold, Lucius returns. The trailer shows Paul Mescal and Pedro Pascal fighting in an open Colosseum area, so it sounds like a fun watch.
Conclusion:
So these are the Hollywood movies you can watch this year. From supernatural horror to fun animated movies, the year has a broad spectrum of genres for you to choose from. We get to see minions returning in Despicable Me 4, along with Garfield making his debut on the big screen. What will be equally interesting is to see Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman together and the suspense that unravels. Which one are you most excited for?
