The most anticipated movies of 2021 - Fox News

kojongpana.blogspot.com

With awards season well underway, there's no better time to look ahead at what's coming down the pipeline in Hollywood.

2020 made for an odd year for the film industry since the coronavirus pandemic forced studios to delay movie releases and in many cases, send projects made for the big screen to streaming.

With franchises like Marvel piling movies up and Bond flick "No Time To Die" getting its premiere date pushed back multiple times, 2021 is shaping up to be jam-packed with releases across all genres.

Here's a look at the most anticipated films for the rest of the year:

'BLACK WIDOW': SCARLETT JOHANSSON RETURNS IN FIRST TEASER TRAILER

"Raya and the Last Dragon" (March 5)

Set in the fantasy world of Kumandra 500 years after dragons sacrificed themselves to save humanity, a young warrior named Raya hopes to track down such a dragon in order to save the world.

"Raya and the Last Dragon" was originally set to hit theaters on Nov. 25, 2020. However, the pandemic has forced it to follow in the steps of Disney's "Mulan" remake, and the flick will hit select theaters and Disney+ on the same day.

"Black Widow" (May 7)

One of several entries by Marvel coming this year is "Black Widow," which will follow fan-favorite Avenger Natasha Romanoff in the time between "Captain America: Civil War" and "Avengers: Infinity War."

The story will see the super-spy return to her roots and re-team with old allies to face her past and defeat a new threat.

'MISSION IMPOSSIBLE 7' WILL BE AVAILABLE ON PARAMOUNT+ SOON AFTER ITS THEATRICAL RELEASE

"Black Widow" is currently slated for a May 7 theatrical release, but the slow vaccine rollout and limited theaters in large moviegoing markets have sparked speculation that the movie will again be pushed back or moved to Disney+ for an extra fee.

Rated: PG-13

Cast: Scarlett Johansson, Florence Pugh, David Harbour, Rachel Weisz, William Hurt and more

"F9" (May 28)

The "Fast and Furious" franchise will return with "F9" this year.

The movie will follow the crew of daredevils as they take on the younger brother of Dominic (Vin Diesel), a deadly assassin with a serious grudge.

Originally set for a May 2020 release, "F9" was among the year's movies to gracefully bow out to 2021 without much fuss. The movie will now premiere theatrically on May 28.

Virtually nothing is known about the plot of the seventh installment of the "Mission: Impossible" franchise.

The movie has made headlines because of its strict and in-depth coronavirus safety protocols, as well as star Tom Cruise's multiple outbursts toward crew members that were accused of allegedly breaking such protocols.

"Mission: Impossible 7" will hit theaters on Nov. 19 and will begin streaming on Paramount+ just 45 days later.
