Most Anticipated Movies of 2017
The year 2016 gave movie fans a lot of interesting projects. Having watched Zootopia, we realized again that cartoons can be of interest not only for children, but also for adults. We laughed our heads off along with Deadpool and the products from Complete Rumble.Despite criticism of Suicide Squad, Harley Quinn played by Margot Robbie became one of the most memorable heroines of 2016, while the new Joker caused the majority of viewers more bewilderment rather than delight. On the screens finally got "Warcraft" - this moment fans of the media franchise have been waiting for about ten years. The women's team of ghost hunters also visited the cinemas, which deserved a lot of reproaches, but performed very well at the box office. Mowgli, Tarzan, the blue fish Dory - this is not a complete list of characters that have returned to the screens. 2017 promises to be no less rich in interesting novelties, and LostFilm.INFO has compiled a list of the most interesting ones for you. Of course, this list is not exhaustive - distributors have prepared a lot of premieres for us. Among those who were not included in the final list, one can single out the "Great Wall", "Beauty and the Beast", the final "Resident Evil", the eighth "Fast and the Furious", the next "Pirates of the Caribbean" and the fifth "Transformers". In general, the year promises to be incredibly eventful, and movie fans should stock up on popcorn and get ready for an influx of blockbusters, reboots and all kinds of sequels, among which the real diamonds of modern cinema can so easily get lost. " La La Land " - January 12  Damien Chazelle made a name for himself when his drama "Obsession" was released. Five nominations for "Oscars" and three statuettes won in the end speak volumes. Chazelle chose the musical La La Land as his next directorial project. Initially, the only thing that could attract the viewer seemed to be Damien himself and the main couple, Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling, since the story of the ascent to the top of fame as an aspiring actress and musician is not new at all. However, as the film season approached, La La Landa began to be talked about more and more often, and having received seven nominations for Golden Globe , the picture was included in the list of must-have films for viewing. Critics vying with each other singing laudatory odes to the musical and Stone , considering it the best job of her entire career. When watching La La Landa , there is a natural desire that the film never ends, but the viewer has at least two hours of musical magic in reserve. " Trainspotting 2 " - February 2  20 years after the release of the cult film Trainspotting, Danny Boyle invites moviegoers to meet again Mark Renton and his drug addicts. The director had been hatching the idea of a sequel for a long time and finally decided to adapt Irwin Welch's novel "Porn" . True, Trainspotting 2 is a free arrangement of the original source, but the prospect of seeing Stump or Begby again does not look less tempting. Judging from the trailer, the second part is filled with the same energy as Trainspotting , and even if the sequel is weaker than the original, nostalgic viewers will forgive Boyle any mistakes. " Logan " - March 2  At a time when Hollywood was covered with a wave of reboots and remakes, the fact that viewers know only one Wolverine - performed by Hugh Jackman, is respectful. The actor remained loyal to the mutant image for 17 years and played it in eight films. During this time, after all, moviegoers managed to get acquainted with three Hulks and as many Spider-Man ! Now Jackman confidently declares that the blockbuster Logan will be his farewell tour as Wolverine . Patrick Stewart will appear as Charles Xavier for the last time. At the same time, the film about Wolverine will be released for the first time with a rating of R , and the trailer for the film by James Mangold gives hope that " Kong: Skull Island " - March 9  A little more than ten years have passed since King Kong has been on screen in cinemas. Peter Jackson's 2005 film earned three Oscars , but there were also those who saw flaws in King Kong, considering it too long. It was quite reasonable to doubt that in the near future the huge gorilla would visit cinemas again, but the Legendary bosses apparently did not overcome such doubts, and the Hollywood studio instructed Jordan Vogt-Roberts to shoot a new film about Kong. Judging by the first trailer, the director will tell the audience a completely different version of the story about a huge monkey. Like most modern blockbusters, from Skull Islands you should expect impressive special effects and epic battles, but a first-class cast, " Alive " - March 23  After the success of "Gravity" and "The Martian," films about space, as close to reality as possible, began to gain popularity again. The director Daniel Espinosa, who switched from thrillers to science fiction, also did not stand aside. His Easy Money and Cape Town Access Code turned out to be quite a worthy spectacle, but "Number 44" frankly failed at the box office. However, it is worth believing that thanks to "Alive" Espinosa he will be able to rehabilitate himself, because he had at his disposal a considerable budget and a stellar cast: Jake Gyllenhaal, Ryan Reynolds and Rebecca Ferguson. The film will focus on how the participants in the space mission discovered signs of life on Mars, which they later regretted. The trailer for the movie certainly evokes a sense of deja vu, but let's hope< Ghost in the Shell - March 30  First published in 1989, Ghost in the Shell has become a cyberpunk classic. It explores the struggles of Major Kusanagi Motoko and her squadron against dangerous criminals, touching on the themes of individuality and identity at a time when the line between humans and machines is beginning to blur. Ghost in the Shell quickly evolved into a media franchise that today includes three anime, a number of TV series and several PC games. Back in 2008, Steven Spielberg's company acquired the rights to film the manga, and, having overcome many difficulties, the film will finally reach the screens. The intriguing trailer further fueled interest in Rupert Sanders' project and even appealed to those who were outraged by the Europeanization of the heroine (played by Scarlett Johansson). For the last one Guardians of the Galaxy. Part 2 "- May 4  In 2014, director James Gunn created a blockbuster from a not very promising idea of making a raccoon and a tree superheroes, which became, perhaps, the most fun film in the entire Marvel cinematic universe. Therefore, it is not surprising that “Guardians of the Galaxy. Part 2 " are among the most anticipated projects of the next year. Of course, there are doubts as to whether the sequel will repeat the success of its predecessor. The cast of the comic strip has expanded significantly - Kurt Russell, Sylvester Stallone, Pom Klementieff, Elizabeth Debicki and Chris Sullivan have joined him, but hopefully the latter Guardians of the Galaxy will not be too overwhelmed with details, and Ganna it will turn out to be another perky and funny superhero action movie with all the accompanying attributes. " Alien: Covenant " - May 18  The next year is sure to be very successful for Ridley Scott. The filmmaker not only produces the Blade Runner sequel, but is also the director of the blockbuster Alien: Covenant - the sequel to Prometheus. According to Scott himself, viewers will have at least a trilogy of prequels that will bridge the gap between Prometheus and Alien. Only Michael Fassbender and Noomi Rapace will return to their roles in the second part, while the rest of the cast are recruits on their colonization ship heading to a distant planet, which they see as paradise. However, according to the law of the genre, danger awaits them here and the android David performed by Fassbender . The latter, by the way, promised that "Covenant" would be much worse than "Prometheus" . " Wonder Woman " - June 1st  The cinematic universe based on DC comics has encountered a number of problems during its existence. All three blockbusters released - Man of Steel, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and Suicide Squad - grossed a decent amount at the box office, but their creators and the leadership of Warner Bros. had to listen to his address is a lot of criticism regarding the quality of the paintings. Perhaps a woman will be able to save the situation, and even not a simple one, but a real princess of the Amazons. One of the oldest superheroines DC will finally get her own movie.

It, Spider-Man: Homecoming - July 6  With The Amazing Spider-Man: High Voltage disappointing even the most ardent comic book lovers, you could expect Spidey to return to our screens anytime soon. However, the studio Sony thought differently, and again decided to reboot Spider-Man . This time it was not without the company Marvel , and Tom Holland has already managed to show himself in action in "Confrontation". And since there Spider-Man got little screen time, the audience had to wait for his new solo album. Of course, Jonathan Watts cannot be called an experienced director, and the writers of "Horrible Bosses" do not inspire much credibility, but still the blockbuster should surpass the films with Andrew Garfield as the title character. Dunkirk - July 20  Despite the fact that Christopher Nolan's creations have been awarded numerous cinematic awards, and "Inception" did get into the ranks of the nominees for Oscar for Best Film, Nolan himself for his I have never pretended to be a director for a golden idol. However, everything may change next year - the director will present to the public the war drama Dunkirk , which tells about one of the most unusual operations of the Second World War.

Now the director is ready to present to moviegoers an even bigger sci-fi project. Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets is an adaptation of the popular French comic book of the 60s, which tells the story of space special agents tracking down various alien villains. The tape has already become one of the most expensive independent films in the history of cinema. The main thing is that the picture does not repeat the fate of Jupiter Ascending, fortunately, judging by the recent teaser trailer, Valerian will rather be a mix of Guardians of the Galaxy, Avatar, Star Wars and Fifth Element ". " The Dark Tower " - July 27  Back in the early 70s, Stephen King began writing the first novel from the series The Dark Tower , and in 2017 movie fans will finally get to know Arrow . It took Hollywood almost ten years to realize this project. The film by the Dane Nikolai Arsel will lay the foundation for a whole franchise - a full-length adaptation will be followed by a series. The literary source is an amazing mix of science fiction, epic fantasy and spaghetti westerns, and producer Ron Howard promised that the film version would be true to the spirit of the original, but the filmmakers did change the course of the story. Fans of the King cycle still have doubts about whether Arcel will be able to adapt such complex material, and even the choice of Idris Elba for the role of Roland Descein many were not pleased. " Blade Runner 2049 " - October 5  At one time, "Blade Runner" was not noted at the box office with anything outstanding, but years passed, and the picture with Harrison Ford in the title role acquired the status of a cult, became a cyberpunk classic and influenced several generations. And now Rick Deckard is ready to return after 30 years - that's how much will pass between the events of the original and the sequel, dubbed Blade Runner 2049 .
