The cinematic world is our escape. Living in a world architected by someone else’s creativity gives us a launch pad to tear through the monotony of our daily lives and enter a parallel universe. For movie buffs like us watching a movie is therapy and every session with our favourites is paramount.
Therefore, for all those who have been trying to reel from Avengers: Endgame, we have assembled all the upcoming movies you must watch and keep the buzz alive.
Detective Pikachu
Release Date: May 10, 2019
By the time you will be reading this, world-class detective, Pikachu would have already zapped into our lives. Watch out for this Pokemon because you might just hear more than, “Pika, Pika”.

What this duo did not expect was to ram into a plot that poses a threat to the Pokemon universe.
Godzilla: King of the Monsters

The clash of the god-sized monsters, Godzilla and King Ghidorah, on the big screen, is what will take your breath away and make your hair stand on edge.
Aladdin
Release Date: May 23, 2019
We won’t be wrong in saying that 2019 will be a walk down the memory lane. Nostalgia tide will be high and pouring over us. After its trailer released, this live-action Aladdin remake got mixed reviews from all around but one can only know after watching the film once. Some of us might just queue up to experience Aladdin on a much much larger scale.
Rocketman
Release Date: May 31, 2019
This biographical musical drama is based on the life of the celebrated musician, Elton John. The title ‘Rocketman’ has been derived from Elton John’s 1972 song by the same name. Launch yourselves back in time and watch one of the greatest artists rise to the helm, his musical partnership with Bernie Taupin, and his tussle with his inner demons. Elton’s life is laced with milestones and this movie gives you a chance to cross every single one of them with Elton.
Dark Phoenix
Release Date: June 7, 2019
Fox is coming back with a storyline of the X-Men series that has been widely regarded as the best and the most shocking one in the series history. The film will follow the transformation of one of the most powerful X-Men characters, Jean Grey, into the Dark Phoenix. The movie is a direct sequel of X-Men: Apocalypse and if the trailer is a testimony of how great this movie can be, you must add it to your list of must-watch.
Men in Black: International
Release Date: June 14, 2019
Looks like Thor is back in his form with little adjustments to his suit. Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson have picked up the baton to carry the Men in Black franchise ahead. This will be the first Men in Black film without Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones in it. Watch the “Men and Women in Black”, as Chris says, defend the planet from a series of extraterrestrial attacks and spin around all across the globe.
Annabelle Comes Home
Release Date: June 27, 2019
“Knock! Knock!”, hear that? Now run! It’s your girl Annabelle and she has escaped from the clutches of Ed and Lorraine. You know that can’t ever be good. Although this time, she is in the mood to stir things a little with their daughter. Also, she isn’t alone. She has awakened all the evil spirits that rested in the locked artifacts room at Ed and Lorraine home.
Spider-Man: Far From Home
Release Date: July 6, 2019
All of us felt a loss as the credits rolled for Avengers: Endgame. The reality gradually dawned upon each one of us. For Spider-Man, his journey forward will be harder because he lost a lot more. In spite of all that, he is back to take over the Spider-Man franchise and carry it forward to new heights. In Spider-Man: Far from Home, you will be seeing a lot of familiar faces, which is a relief, but a lot of new faces have been dropped in the crowd.
The Lion King
Release Date: July 19, 2019
Perhaps none of us can afford to sit this one out. Losing Mufasa scarred us more than Ned Stark’s demise in Game of Thrones. Retrace your steps and sit glued to your seats for this nostalgic ride. Donald Glover has lent his voice for Simba while Pumba will be sounding very similar to Seth Rogen, and we will be hearing James Earl Jones roar as Mufasa.
The cast is all set to stump you emotionally and make you fall in love with your childhood heroes all over again.
Joker
Release Date: October 4, 2019
Witness a failed stand-up comedian walk the darker alleys of a city that stood watching as he descended into madness.
