The 25 Most Anticipated Movies of 2019
- Out of all the films coming out in 2019 (and there’s a lot), these were voted the most exciting.
#1. Shazam!
Based on the DC comics character of the same name, Shazam! is about a teenager who can transform into a superhero simply by saying the word “Shazam”. According to the trailer, it should also be one of the funnier superhero movies of 2019.
#2. How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World
The previous How to Train Your Dragon films were so successful that it’s not just kids who are excited about The Hidden World trailer.
#3. The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part
Even if you’re an “adult”, you surely loved the first Lego Movie, and should definitely be excited for the sequel, based off the trailer.
#4. Top Gun: Maverick
It took 33 years, but we’re finally getting a Top Gun sequel. There isn’t a trailer, or even much of a plot yet, but the sequel will definitely see rivals Maverick (Tom Cruise) and Iceman (Val Kilmer) reunite.
#5. The New Mutants
This Marvel horror movie focuses on a group of young mutants held in a secret facility that must fight to save themselves. If you’re a horror fan like me, you’ll love the unusually dark superhero trailer.
#6. MIB
MIB is an untitled spin-off of the original Men in Black film series that’ll be starring Chris Hemsworth, Tessa Thompson, Liam Neeson, and Rebecca Ferguson.
#7. Godzilla: King of the Monsters
It was decided opening weekend of Godzilla (2014) that they would be making a sequel. It took a while, but the monstrous trailer was finally released at this year’s Comic-Con.
#8. Dumbo
Doesn’t the child inside of you just light up when you hear this? And looking at the trailer, Tim Burton has certainly put his own unique twist on the classic children’s tale.
#9. Dark Phoenix
Originally, this X-Men movie was set to be released in November, but needed to reshoot much of the third act. However, its star Sophie Turner couldn’t attend said reshoots due to Game of Thrones filming, pushing back the release to February 2019.
#10. Hellboy
There’s no trailer yet, but that hasn’t stopped Hellboy fans from getting excited about the reboot in which Hellboy squares off against a medieval sorceress who seeks to destroy mankind.
#11. The Addams Family
Everyone’s favorite ghoulish family is being remade into an animated film for the big screen; let’s just hope they find that happy medium where kids and adults can both enjoy it.
#12. 3 From Hell
This upcoming horror film will be the follow-up to Rob Zombie’s 2003 film House of 1000 Corpses and his 2005 sequel The Devil’s Rejects.
#13. Spider-Man: Far From Home
The newest Spider-Man movie is set to be released July 2019 – three months after Avengers: Infinity War- Part 2. Therefore, by the time it comes out, the whole “Holy shit everybody’s dead!” thing will have been sorted out. Hopefully.
#14. Zombieland 2
Luckily for us, all members of the core cast are coming back 10 years later for this zombie-fighting sequel.
#15. The Lion King
When asked about their favorite kids movie, it’s amazing how many people answer The Lion King. I’m not sure if Disney can outdo the childhood classic we all love. But they sure picked a stellar cast (including Donald Glover as Simba and Beyoncé as Nala) for this live-action epic musical.
