there's a lot of innovative action-packed and visually stunning flicks to look forward to
in sci-fi cinema this year and let's be honest approximately a buttload of them are marvel movies
here are some upcoming sci-fi movies that you absolutely do not want to miss
Open your eye
brace yourselves folks the mcu's first big movie of the year is nearly here sam raimi's doctor
strange in the multiverse of madness is set to explore the now cracked open multiverse further
doctor strange played by benedict cumberbatch will be seen contending with various universes
and creatures traveling back and forth in time to find solutions while battling villains as diverse
as a cyclopian squid monster and a corrupted time-altered version of himself he will have a
little help from the scarlet witch who will be using the dark hole to make sense of their new
reality raymie who helmed the original spider-man trilogy appears to lean into his horror background
for the mcu film and weaves the narrative with themes of science fiction and high fantasy
dude you're embarrassing me from the wizard the trailer promises fans a return to the trippy
mirror dimension teases the cartoon dimension and sees its titular character travel to many
alternate realities if you thought dr strange's distinctive psychedelic visual effects set it
apart from any other film in the mcu multiverse of madness is going to be a treat for the eyes
elizabeth olsen returns as wanda maximoff benedict wong rachel mcadams and chubatel
ajiafor reprise their past roles and the film introduces sochi gomez as america chavez
in japanese the word shin can translate to heart or god or true when hideaki ano
and shinji higuchi made shin godzilla in 2016 it was perhaps a response to america's recent
attempt to make their own version of godzilla a character who is to remind you both a japanese
citizen and a tourism ambassador for the japanese government anno and higu's version of godzilla was
then touted as the true version with the upcoming shin ultraman anno and higuchi have re-teamed
to give the same clarion of verisimilitude to everyone's favorite ultra-evolved super-powered
robot-like space alien being that ever hailed from 1960s japanese tukosatu television jurassic world
dominion is set to round out the current jurassic trilogy in grand fashion with dinosaurs now out in
the real world living amongst humans taking place four years after the events of fallen kingdom
we're going to see what full-blown chaos really looks like colin trevorrow is returning to the
director's chair with chris pratt and bryce dallas howard reprising their roles as owen grady and
claire deering respectively most importantly sam neil laura dern and jeff goldblum are reuniting
as alan grant ellie sattler and ian malcolm for the first time since the original movie settler
alan grant that alone is worth the price of a mission pixar may not be making toy story 5 but
they are finding a creative way to continue with the franchise that started it all chris evans is
set to star in light year a movie that will show us the actual space hero buzz lightyear in action
not the toy but the man behind the toy directed by angus mclean this looks to be a true blue
action-adventure flick with pixar's signature creative twist well let's go find out if this
we got a breach in the perimeter in a world absolutely overflowing with sequels and reboots
this looks to be one of the more unique ones coming down the pipeline also there
is a talking robot cat named socks in it hello buzz i am socks your personal companion robot
thor love and thunder directed by the brilliant taika waititi comes out on july 8 2022
it stars chris hemsworth as thor natalie portman as jane foster tessa thompson as valkyrie and
christian bale as gore the god butcher i choose to run toward my problems and not away from them
though we don't have a ton of details yet we do know that jane foster will become the mighty thor
in love and thunder she'll have her own set of powers not just a copy of og thor's not only that
but valkyrie the ruler of new asgard and the mcu's first openly queer character is likely to
get a love story of her own love is in the title after all for extra fun we're getting guardians of
the galaxy characters including star lord who still has a bit of a rivalry going with thor
you should fight one another for the honor of leadership sounds fair
it's not necessary okay i got some blasters unless you guys want to use knives
lady siff who got short shrift in the earlier films will return badass that she is the only
thing that can make this any better is a cameo from beta ray bill hey one can dream
with the runaway success of get out and us jordan peele has earned the kind of goodwill that sells
tickets based on name recognition alone which is perfect because even though the first trailer for
nope gave us a solid two minutes worth of footage we still don't know very much about what peel has
in store daniel kaluuya kiki palmer and steve yoon all star as residents of a small california town
who make an uncanny and chilling discovery so far we've seen a lot of ominous sky shots and a pretty
creepy looking cloud which doesn't sound like much to go on but the internet is nothing if not clever
the secrecy surrounding the film has made lots of room for speculation and wild theories and
the most popular guess promises a chilling sci-fi surprise maybe it's aliens it's totally aliens an
especially memorable moment from the trailer sees kiki palmer whisked into the sky by an invisible
force which is pretty much a staple of alien horror some internet sleuths have dug a little
deeper and begun to theorize that the title nope is actually an acronym for not of planet earth
we don't have much to go on and peel certainly hasn't let anything slip but the tagline was a
bad miracle also points us to the sky after all miracles are thought of as a gift from the heavens
and aliens come from up above but whether nope delved into aliens or just intensely bad weather
jordan peel's track record is pristine and whatever he's hiding up his sleeve
makes this a must-see movie looks like a child dressed like spider-man dragging a homeless
corpse behind a train spider-man swinging through new york is a thing of the past
now it's all about jumping through dimensions after starting the year right with peter parker
and spider-man no way home we're gearing up to finally return to the spider-verse with
miles morales shamiq moore and hailey steinfeld are back as miles and gwen
years after the adventure that bonded the original crew of spider people friends
friends cool see you around spiderman this time around they're set to embark on a story so epic
it needed two parts and while watching miles awkwardly flirt could certainly fill out a
movie or two our spider duo are destined to grapple with much bigger problems that see them
traveling across dimensions they'll reunite with old spidey pals including miles's mentor peter b
parker played by jake johnson and meet some new faces along the way
across the spider verse promises the introduction of issa rey as spider-woman
and finally gives us a chance to learn more about the futuristic spider-man 2099 voiced by oscar
isaac i'm spider-man i need you to come with me who the heck are you i i just told you that list
listen i'm from the future how dare you point at me you were pointing first the film is set to take
everything we loved about the first movie and amp it up to the next level including the animation
style like spider-verse the film blends 2d and 3d animation with comic book inspired textures
the bonus we also get a new animation style for every alternate universe that miles visits
it's been nearly four years since black panther changed the trajectory of the superhero film
fans have been anxiously awaiting for a sequel to the 2018 phenomenon but returning to the world of
wakanda feels bittersweet after the tragic death of chadwick boseman in 2020 marvel studios are
adamant about honoring bozeman's legacy moving forward and though the role of t'challa will
always belong to the late actor the legacy of the black panther will continue in black panther
wakanda forever director ryan coogler returns to helm the sequel and so have key members of the
cast like lupita nyong'o danai gurira leticia wright winston duke and angela bassett they'll
also be joined by some new faces michaela cole and tenochuerta though their roles in the film are
under tight wraps wakanda forever will also mark the live-action debut of riri williams also known
as ironheart and marvel comics wakanda forever is but one of many superhero projects on the horizon
while franchise fatigue can be overwhelming black panther has always felt like a departure from the
genre the film helped bring afrofuturism and a roster of powerful black characters to the
mcu for the first time setbacks aside wakanda forever will definitely expand the world that
bozeman helped bring to life and it's a world that coogler believes the actor would have wanted fans
to continue celebrating director james cameron is on record with his philosophy that a film is not
worth making if it won't be the biggest movie of all time this certainly held true for titanic in
1997 and avatar in 2009 and there's no reason to believe that avatar 2 will be any different
cameron has spent the last 12 years improving special effects technology and underwater
photography to capture an undersea adventure the likes of which audiences cannot yet imagine
inspired by maori and polynesian cultures avatar 2 will take place under the oceans of pandora
where the sully family complete with a new child shall meet a tribe of reef dwelling navi
even if cameron's plan to follow this with multiple additional avatar sequels
never bears fruit audiences can be assured they will see something impressive here
fans will still have to wait a year to see brie larson's carol danvers suit up
for the sequel to captain marvel and as the film's title implies she won't be on her own
perhaps even more exciting than seeing carol return for her second solo adventure is that
she'll be joined by monica rambo tiana paris who we saw gain superpowers in wanda vision as well
as kamala khan played by iman valani who is set to debut in her own series ms marvel later this year
little else is known about the movie's plot with marvel keeping its stars tight-lipped as always
however larson has referred to the sequel as bonkers and cited it as an example of marvel's
ability to continually reinvent itself hey if it's somehow more bonkers than
then we are definitely interested the marvels is directed by nia de costa
who previously worked with paris on candyman and the script is penned by megan mcdonald
who wrote for wandavision as well carol will reportedly be squaring off against zombie ashton
as the as yet unnamed villain the marvels will also see samuel l jackson reprise his role as
nick fury while pak sujin joins the cast as well aside from captain america the winter soldier
the mcu has a lousy track record with the second entries in its various properties
however with this many great characters and a director who's already proven herself capable of
reinventing a franchise the marvels is definitely a movie to look forward to fans of james gunn's
guardians of the galaxy have been waiting for the third installment for more than five
years thankfully we'll all get a chance to hear star-lord's fantastic mixtapes again
in may of 2023 when guardians of the galaxy vol 3 hits theaters the guardians of the galaxy are
a team of misfit heroes that includes chris pratt as star-lord zoe saldana as gamora dave bautista
as drax and the voices of vin diesel and bradley cooper as groot and rocket raccoon the first two
films are candy-colored space adventures full of humor and heart and it will be great to follow the
adventures of this ragtag crew once more as they contend with well more powerful more beautiful
more capable of destroying the guardians of the galaxy this will be the final outing for
this team of guardians under guns direction which means that anything could happen and the stakes
are higher than they've ever been will star-lord ever get the hero status he desires is alternate
universe gamora the same as the gamora we knew and loved before the blink will rockets steal
any body parts we'll have to wait until 2023 to find out which seems way way too far away
ezra miller returns as dc's resident speedster in the flash the first standalone film based on
the superhero character argentine filmmaker andy muschetti directs the movie it is inspired by the
flashpoint comic book crossover story where barry allen travels back in time to prevent his mother's
murder if there's anything we've learned from barry allen's story arc it is that bad things
happen when you mess with time and changing the past rarely ever changes the future in a
good way at least the comic book story follows the character as his actions bring unintended
consequences in the film miller's superhero opens a multiverse by traveling back in time and runs
into two different versions of batman portrayed by michael keaton and ben affleck respectively
during his missteps whether the film achieves the emotional complexity as the aeroverse television
show episode that adopted the same story remains to be seen sasha kaje makes her silver screen
debut as supergirl kearsey clemens plays iris west michael shannon will be seen as general
zod and maribel verdu will play barry's mother nora allen check out one of our newest videos
