This year is expected to be the year when blockbusters "stir up" the box office. In addition to the original films, sequels also make up a significant number of the films preparing to hit theaters. Let's take a look at the list that IMDb "named" (arranged in random order) below.
Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga
"Rose" Anya Taylor-Joy plays young Furiosa in Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga
Director George Miller's Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga was conceived and produced over a period of 8 years (its predecessor, Mad Max: Fury Road, was released to global audiences in 2015). The film explores the turbulent youth of General Furiosa (played by Anya Taylor-Joy), a role that Charlize Theron played brilliantly in the 2015 film.
Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga takes place after the events of the world collapse, Furiosa is kidnapped, struggling to survive and find the "motherland" - the place mentioned in Mad Max: Fury Road . In addition to Anya Taylor-Joy, the film also brings together artists such as Chris Hemsworth, Alyla Browne and Tom Burke.
Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga is expected because Mad Max: Fury Road was created by filmmaker George Miller in an extremely overwhelming way. Mad Max: Fury Road received 10 nominations at the 88th Academy Awards, winning 6 awards, mostly for technical and costume awards. There are still too many interesting things left unsolved in this fictional world. Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga is scheduled to be released on May 24.
Dune: Part 2
Big scene in the blockbuster trailer Dune: Part 2
As the next work of the "big guy" Warner Bros. this year, Dune: Part 2 by director Denis Villeneuve is expanded in scale and characters compared to the first film released in 2021. Adapted from the massive science fiction novel of the same name by American writer Frank Herbert, the first part introduced the audience to the sand planet and the wars for power on it. In the sequel, the climax of the story will be exploited when the conflict between the factions becomes fierce.
The film stars A-list stars such as Timothée Chalamet (Paul Atreides), Zendaya (Chani), Rebecca Ferguson (Lady Jessica), Josh Brolin (Gurney Halleck), Austin Butler (Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen), Florence Pugh (Princess Irulan - the Emperor's daughter), Stellan Skarsgård (Baron Vladimir Harkonnen)...
The first part of the film won 6 awards at the 94th Academy Awards, missing out on Best Picture. The film's total global revenue is over 400 million USD, although the work was released during the Covid-19 pandemic, which caused difficulties for the theater business in the North American market at that time. Part 2 is scheduled to be released on March 1.
Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire
Godzilla's new look in the blockbuster Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire
Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire , directed by Adam Wingard, continues to be the third film in the list released by Warner Bros. (produced by Legendary Pictures). If the audience has seen previous works about Godzilla and Kong with earth-shattering battles such as Kong: Skull Island (2017), Godzilla: King of the Monsters (2019), Godzilla vs. Kong (2021) in the "Monster Universe" (MonsterVerse), the sequel Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire is hard to miss.
In this latest film, whose promotional trailer was released not long ago, Godzilla and Kong "team up" to fight a new enemy. In it, Godzilla takes on a new form, surprising the audience because it is different from the previous films. The film is scheduled to be released on April 12.
Inside Out 2
As the only animated film on the list, director Kelsey Mann's Inside Out 2 promises to delight fans and be a "formidable warhorse" of live-action films this year.
Inside Out 2 Animated Movie Introduces Many New Emotional Characters
Highly appreciated for its creative and emotional ideas, Inside Out (released in 2015, won the Oscar for Best Animated Feature) will continue its emotional journey in part 2, when the filmmakers explore more deeply the emotional changes of the girl Riley, who has now entered her teenage years. The producer "revealed" that the film will introduce new emotional friends in the film. Inside Out 2 is scheduled to premiere on June 14.
Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes
The scale of the fantasy world in Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes will be "expanded" a lot.
As a sequel to the war epic War for the Planet of the Apes (2017), the film Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes by director Wes Ball takes place far after the first part. 300 years after the events of War for the Planet of the Apes , the apes have dominated civilization. However, the ambition of this species does not stop at domination but goes further into the future. The previous film was a box office success with a total revenue of 490 million USD worldwide, highly appreciated for its plot and special effects. The film Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes promises to follow the success of the first part. The work is scheduled to be released on May 24.
