Assassin’s Creed

One more adaptation from the video game Assassin’s Creed needs no introduction for any crazy game lover. So far, the video game movie adaptations have been doing well at the box office and never made the electric game and movie lovers upset. The movie is being directed by Justin Kurzel and one more reason for excitement is the cast itself; Michael Fassbender plays the assassin protagonist and Marion Cotillard, Brendan Gleeson, Jeremy Irons and Michael K. Williams in supporting roles. We just have to wait and see how visually stunning the game inspired movie is.

Point Break

Release Date: December 25 (US), February 12, 2016 (UK)

Point Break is a remake of the 90s American classic action thriller stared Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze. The movie was loved by the audience all over the world regardless of the genres they love. Remaking a film is always a risky business and its intensity of risk, doubles if it is a classic hit. Invincible director Ericson Core is directing the film with Luke Bracey, Édgar Ramírez playing Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze respectively. The trailer doesn’t look appealing to some but it still raised some expectations. So, let us wait and see.

13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi

This is an upcoming American biographical action thriller film produced and directed by Michael Bay and written by Chuck Hogan, based on the 2013 book 13 Hours by Mitchell Zuckoff. The trailer gave its best impression on its stunning visuals, all the cast in the movie are well giving the awesome look in their beards in the trailer. Michael Bay may miss someone’s expectations but he is sure to surprise with positive hits now and then.

Friday The 13th

Release Date: May 13, 2016 (Not official)

Paramount is making the movies Friday The 13th again and again but nothing ever impressed the audience like the original one. But this time there are rumors suggesting that the studio got the real footages and more pleasing for the audience is that the movie might come in 3D. So far we know very less from its official production house it is difficult to say the movie comes in the same repetitive plot or the plot itself might surprise us.

The Huntsman

Release Date: April 22, 2016

This is the prequel of the 2012 film Snow White and the Huntsman, which is an upcoming American dark fantasy action-adventure film directed by Cedric Nicolas-Troyan. Cedric is the visual effects supervisor for the previous movie and this makes him that he got an eye for the script. The movie cast will be same of original other than Kristen Stewart. Besides Hemsworth, Jessica Chastain and Emily Blunt are in the movies and this cast makes the movie worth waiting for.

Knights of the Roundtable: King Arthur

Release Date: July 22, 2016

The movie is a historical drama based on the life of King Arthur directed by Guy Ritchie. He is known for his previous movie Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows which made a very good impression by reviving the character along with the time period in the perfect manner. So, there is no doubt that the director will repeat his success with his new historical film. The cast is as attracting as the plot itself, Charlie Hunnam playing Arthur, while Jude Law, Djimon Hounsou, Eric Bana and Aidan Gillen doing the supporting roles.

Now You See Me: The Second Act

Release Date: June 10, 2016

The first and original of this upcoming movie Now You See Me is visually enthralling and stylish enough to attract audience but there are still some flaws to fill. We hope The Second Act might come up with more interesting plots and twists in the storytelling. The new cast Lizzy Caplan and Daniel Radcliffe being added to the original mix is already making the movie get good hype. Ed Solomon co-writing the script man who is known for his commercial hits with Bill and Ted movies as well as the original Men in Black will be another reason to raise the expectations on this upcoming movie.

The Angry Birds Movie

Release Date: May 13, 2016 (UK), May 20, 2016 (US)

This game is a huge hit and everybody will love to see it if it is adapted as a movie but this same point can make them frustrated if the movie doesn’t come well. So far the first trailer is witty and not so great about it but it can still be improvised. Jason Sudeikis, Josh Gad, Peter Dinklage, Danny McBride, Bill Hader, Maya Rudolph and Kate McKinnon are lending their voice to the roles in The Angry Birds. Let us just wait and see how much it is going to make laugh or angry.

The Good Dinosaur                                    

Release Date: November 25 (US), November 27 (UK)

Just like all the Disney’s good fantasy movies, The Good Dinosaur also can do well in theatres. The first trailer released promises the movie to be visually pleasing along with the cute animation from Pixar. No Pixar movie can ever be failed in its imaginative quotient, they are so far perfect in bringing the right emotions while watching the visuals, and we hope to see the same from this movie only if the story telling is compelling along with its animation.
