The Best is Yet to Come
Last year was great
for Hollywood, and this year looks to be even better. Some of the most
anticipated films of 2019 are sequels and remakes we have all been patiently
waiting for.
Superheroes will once
again rule the silver screen this year, but there is more to cinema than men
and women in supersuits and spandex. Today we are going to look at ten of the
most anticipated movies of 2019 and I really hope your most anticipated movie
made the list.
10. Glass
M. Night Shyamalan’s
Split and Unbreakable sequel is probably the first blockbuster of 2019. After
the twists of Split, fans will be looking forward to seeing a darker take on
the superhero genre. Bruce Willis, James McAvoy and Samuel L Jackson returns to
give us something that we might never expect.
9. Godzilla: King of the Monsters
What’s more awesome
than oversized creatures battling each other, while humanity freezes in awe? In
my opinion, probably nothing. In this movie Godzilla collides with Mothra,
Rodan and King Ghidorah. Who will be left standing? We will just have to wait
and see. This film will also the ground for Godzilla vs. Kong next year.
8. Shazam!
DC finally realised
that darker comic book movies aren’t always fun. Wonder Woman and Aquaman
proved that their cinematic universe can still be saved. Hopefully the Zachary
Levi led superhero-flick Shazam will be as light-hearted and funny as shown in
the trailers. In the movie a 14-year-old kid is given the power of Shazam by an
ancient wizard. That already sounds awesome.
7. Captain Marvel
Just another superhero
movie? Yeah, but this one is special. This will be Marvel’s first female led
superhero movie. Brie Larson will take
centre stage as the MCU’s most powerful character yet, Carol Danvers aka
Captain Marvel. Set in the 1990s the movie will take audiences on an adventure
they never expected and hopefully it will be another hit for the MCU.
6. Us
Jordan Peele is
helming another horror film and like Get
Out this seems to be another award-worthy movie. Starring Lupita Nyong’o
and Winston duke as two parents who take their children to a their beach house.
But as the night comes, shocking visitors arrive. I personally hope this will
be another unforgettable horror movie.
5. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
Quentin Tarantion is
hoping to strike gold again with a film focusing on the Tate-LaBianca murders
and Charles Manson. Led by a stellar cast Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt and
Margot Robbie, this movie definitely looks like it will be a sure hit.
Tarantino will once again make a movie that is unique to his directing style.
4. Spider-Man: Far From Home
Tom Holland’s
Spider-Man is back and this time he will be exploring the world. In this film
he will team up with S.H.I.E.L.D and
newcomer Mysterio to take on the Elementals. What makes this movie interesting
is to see how Peter Parker will be alive after he turned to dust at the end of Avengers: Infinity War.
3 . IT: Chapter Two
He is Pennywise the
Dancing Clown and he is back to terrorise the children of Derry. The movie is
set 27 years after its predecessor. In the film, the Losers’ Club return to
their hometown to get rid of IT
once-and-for-all. Jessica Chastain,
James McAvoy, Bill Hader take on the lead roles, while the younger cast also
returns.
2. Star Wars: Episode IX
Last year was not a
good year for the Far Far Away franchise, after Solo: A Star Wars Story flopped at the box office. Lucasfilms will
hope to redeem the franchise with J.J. Abrams set to return as the
director. Bill Dee Williams will also
return as Lando. Not much is known about the film yet, but as with any Star
Wars movies it is going to be big.
1. Avengers: Endgame
This is hands-down the
most anticipated blockbuster of the year. No one knows what to expect from it,
but we are all hoping to see our favourite heroes get brought back to life.
Marvel has been building towards this film for 11-years and this might just be
what we have been waiting for. With a larger number of the originals Avengers actors’
contracts coming to an end, there might be a few unexpected deaths on the
horizon.

Toy Story 4, Gemini
Man, The Lion King, Rocketman, Frozen 2, Aladdin, Detective Pikachu, John Wick:
Parabellum, Dumbo, Happy Death Day 2 U, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle sequel.
