Films to see in 2021

Welcome to the film list of 2021. I am making this year's list hesitantly as things are very much up in the air at the moment. I always make a disclaimer and say dates are subject to change and I'll do my best to keep the list up to date and that is even more relevant this year. Pretty much every major release of 2020 was delayed until 2021 or made available on a streaming service and I am expecting that to be the case this year despite some films already having been put back for a third time into the spring. The current tier restrictions in the UK and the state of the pandemic in the US has put the cinema industry and the boxoffice in a precarious state and I wouldn't be surprised if many movies are further delayed into summer or the end of the year when a vaccine rollout is well underway and there is a relaxation in restrictions and increased consumer confidence.

As always this is a collaborative effort so if I have missed something off the list or if you would like to see a film added just make a post in this thread and I'll add it to the list. Trailers will be added as soon as they become available so keep checking back for updates.

I think this year's list is very strong and definitely better than what should have been released last year. Take a good look because there are plenty of films coming out which sound good and I hadn't heard of.

Dates in bold are films which were originally planned for this year and have been delayed until next year. This post is by no means a comprehensive list of the 2022 release slate and the films are listed purely as an advisory measure so you know what has happened to them if you were expecting them this year. A new thread will be created towards the end of the year for the 2022 schedule.

January 15th (Netflix) - Outside the Wire Teaser Trailer
January 28th - The French Dispatch Trailer
February 12th - The Little Things Trailer 1
February 26th - The Mauritanian Trailer 1 Trailer 2
March 5th (Amazon Prime) - Coming 2 America Trailer 1 Trailer 2
March 5th - Chaos Walking Trailer
March 5th - Raya and the Last Dragon Teaser Trailer 1 TV Spot
March 12th - Cherry Teaser Trailer
April 1st - Godzilla vs Kong Trailer Teaser
April 9th (Netflix) - Thunder Force Trailer 1
April 16th - Mortal Kombat Trailer 1
April 23rd - The Asset
April 30th - Without Remorse Trailer 1 Trailer 2
April 30th - Connected Trailer

Re: Films to see in 2021

Nobody Feb 26th.

Re: Films to see in 2021

I don't know how I missed that, I am defo going to watch it.

Re: Films to see in 2021

I read for Spiderman 3 that Andrew Garfield and Toby Maguire will be reprising their roles in a multi-verse. Now seeing the Trailer for Loki and the introduction of the TVA and can see this happening.

The upcoming Flash film (not on your list) also has multi-verse with Michael Keaton reprising his Batman

It is due to be released in 2022 and this thread is for 2021

Re: Films to see in 2021

The first inevitable casualty; The Boss Baby 2 has moved from March to September.

Re: Films to see in 2021

TBH, that could move to 2031 for all I care. :)

Re: Films to see in 2021

Me neither, i havent seen the first one. The only animated stuff i'll watch is Disney and Pixar.

Re: Films to see in 2021

I don't understand how they can make stuff like this and keep a straight face

Re: Films to see in 2021

In a rare and unheard of turn of events, Godzilla vs Kong has been brought forward from May to March

Yeah, it is called bad acting, fake sound effects and people shooting machine guns for no reason

Re: Films to see in 2021

Are you sure you have the right link ?
Thats an article from Oct 2, 2020, saying its delayed until April.

Quote:

The film, starring Daniel Craig in his final stint as the agent formerly known as 007, is expected to hit theaters April 2, 2021, a year later than initially planned.

Re: Films to see in 2021

Ah, thats better,

A few others as well ;

Quote:

Sony also announced a delay for Camila Cabello's Cinderella, originally planned for February 5. It will now come out on July 16.

Uncharted's release date has also been moved back into next year – so you'll have to wait until February 11, 2022 to see Tom Holland as Nathan Drake.

Meanwhile, Ghostbusters: Afterlife and Jared Leto's Morbius also move back again, to November 2021 and January 2022 respectively.

Re: Films to see in 2021

Kong vs Godzilla probably gonna be epic.

Re: Films to see in 2021

I'll go and watch it but i am not enthused after the last one.

If we ever get to see it :)
It seems unlikely any cinemas in the UK will be open in March.

Re: Films to see in 2021

Still looks like a piece of crap.

Re: Films to see in 2021

Yeah, I really dont understand why they are bothering. Nobody wants to eat regurgitated shit.

Re: Films to see in 2021

It's hardly regurgitated.

This new film is 4 hours long and uses most of Snyders footage.

The other JL was heavily reshot and the plot changed by Joss Whedon, due to Snyder stepping down near the end of filming because of family tragedy.

This is finally his vision come tp life. About 80% of this is unseen.

Re: Films to see in 2021

Mortal Kombat Trailer

Re: Films to see in 2021

You mean Kombat lol.

yup :D You should check it out. I never watched stuff like that when I was younger because it was just too cheesy and silly but this one looks really good. I'll defo be watching it.

Re: Films to see in 2021

That trailer doesnt load here, but this one does ;

It does seem to have a lot of action in it.

I love the original movies. Yes they are cheesy but are entertaining. Saw them both in the cinema back then. Love the soundtrack too.

This one looks very good amd more like the recent games in terms of fight scenes and gore/violence.

Re: Films to see in 2021

That looks really good. It is looking like the bad video game movie trend is starting to change.

Re: Films to see in 2021

Bojo has announced that cinemas in England won't reopen until 17th May. The list is currently up to date. Quite a few films have shifted a week or two since I last updated date but I am expecting some big changes now that we have an end in sight. Black Widow is going to have to be pushed a couple of weeks for example.

Re: Films to see in 2021

Not my cup of tea but I am sure it will appeal to some people

Cineworld has announced it will reopen US cinemas next month, followed by the UK in May, after signing a deal with Warner Bros to show films in theatres before they are streamed.

The company will open a handful of its Regal cinemas in the US in early April.

Godzilla vs. Kong will be the first film to make its debut in the theatres.

Cineworld said the deal with Warner Bros means films will have a period of exclusivity in cinemas before being made more widely available.

Re: Films to see in 2021

Black Widow pushed back to 9th July, will also be offered as a Premium Disney+ release same day.

That is good news

Re: Films to see in 2021

It looks like they have given it Shang-Chi's spot because it has been bumped from 9th July to September

How right you are.

Luca will be a Disney+ exclusive June 18th. Theatrical release only where Disney+ is not available.

Here's the rest that have been pushed back. (US dates UK TBC)

Free Guy on August 13, 2021 (from May 21, 2021)

Shang Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings on September 3, 2021 (from July 9, 2021)

The King’s Man on December 22, 2021 (from August 20, 2021)

Deep Water on January 14, 2022 (from August 13, 2021)

Death on the Nile on February 11, 2022 (from September 17, 2021)

Re: Films to see in 2021

The Suicide Squad

Re: Films to see in 2021

Looks like absolute grade 1 shit

Re: Films to see in 2021

Looks so much better than the last Suicide Squad movie we got. Although with James Gunn directing WB have made sure this is even more like the MCU/Guardians of the Galaxy and less like the Snyder DCEU that was being built up.

Re: Films to see in 2021

Just updated the list, pretty much everything has been pushed 2-4 weeks. The closest one to be aware of is Godzilla vs Kong; pushed 2 weeks to the beginning of June presumably to give cinemas a bit of breathing room and a chance to get up and running again.

I am hoping that for the first 2 weeks they bring some big hitters as well as classics back. I would love to see Infinity War and Endgame on the big screen again as a precursor to Black Widow.

Re: Films to see in 2021

Godzilla vs Kong is technically already out though on VoD. It was released today.

Re: Films to see in 2021

Yeah I have it on Amazon to rent but I won't be paying £16 for it

Re: Films to see in 2021

Cool. I think this is the kind of film i would like to see at the cinema.

this is what I love so much about Marvel, they go out of their way to put the little special touches on things to show they care. I just had a really big smile when I heard the russian version of the Avengers theme at the end of the trailer.

Re: Films to see in 2021

Looks kick ass. I can't tell you how much I would love to watch Black Widow, Shang-Chi and Eternals as a triple bill at the cinema. We have been without the MCU too long.

I would say even that is debatable

Re: Films to see in 2021

The list is currently up to date. A few films have moved forward a week but the two big changes are Tom Cruise movies. Top Gun 2 which was supposed to be released in July has been delayed until November and Mission Impossible which was coming out in December has been put back to May next year.

Re: Films to see in 2021

The Green Night is the one who will let you pass hehehe

Re: Films to see in 2021

Really looking forward to this. Edgar Wright is an excellent filmmaker and the cast is awesome as well. Plus it's set in Soho! The cinema in the trailer? A real cinema that'll be showing this film in Haymarket.

sweet, shame my closest IMAX screen is 1 hour away. I wish they would put one in my 9 screen Odeon, it is big enough.

Re: Films to see in 2021

I would be interested if it was more scifi thriller than scifi horror.

I dont think its intented to be a horror, more of a suspense film.

Re: Films to see in 2021

I flipping love stuff like this, it is absolute genius.

Re: Films to see in 2021

Re: Films to see in 2021

Re: Films to see in 2021

I've been looking forward now for months to see Ghostbusters Afterlife and its gonna be released in November 21st.
