Movies I’m Looking Forward to 2025

2025 has a lot of movies that will be released. These are the movies I am most excited for.

Captain America: Brave New World February 14th,2025

This will mark the big screen debut of Sam Wilsom (Anthony Mackie) as Captain America taking up the mantel from Steve Rogers (Chris Evans). It will also mark the big screen debut of Joaquine Torres (Danny Ramirez) as the Falcon. Sam Wilson officially became Captain America on the Falcon and Winter Soldier TV show where Joaquine Torres made his debut as well. This will also be the first Marvel movie since the huge success of Deadpool & Wolverine. This movie looks really good. It looks like it’s going to be similar to Captain America: The Winter Soldier tone wise. It will be interesting to see how this will set up the future of the MCU and if Sam Wilson will lead the Avengers. The movie also marks Harrison Ford’s debut as Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross taking over for the late William Hurt. It also marks the return of Liv Tyler as Betty Ross and Tim Blake Nelson as Samue Sterns aka The Leader. Both were last seen in The Incredible Hulk which was released in 2008. The film stars Anthony Mackie, Harrison Ford, Danny Ramirez, Carl Lumbly, Tim Blake Nelson, Liv Tyler, Rosa Salazar, Shira Haas, Xosha Roquemore, and Giancarlo Esposito.

It has been said this movie is going to be a game changer for the MCU. I cannot wait to see what that is. This is pretty much the Marvel version of Suicide Squad. It’s a team of antiheroes/villains. Based on the trailers it looks different than other Marvel projects. I’m there. The film stars Florence Pugh, David Harbour, Sebastian Stan, Hannah John-Kamen, Wyatt Russell, Olga Kurylenko, Lewis Pullman, and Julia Louis-Dreyfus.

Superman marks the first movie in the DCU led by James Gunn and Peter Safran. The animated television show, Creatures Commandos was the official launch to the DCU. The first trailer dropped near the end of December, and it has me hyped for the film. I cannot wait to see what James Gunn has in store for the film as well as the DCU as a whole. The film stars David Corenswet, Nicholas Hoult, Rachel Brosnahan, Isabela Merced, Nathan Fillion, Edi Gathegi, Anthony Carrigan, Maria Gabriela de Faria, and Sean Gunn.

The Fantastic Four are finally making their MCU debut. Third time’s the charm, right? Personally, I did enjoy the mid-200s Fantastic Four. I thought they were fun for what they were. The film is shrouded in mystery. I’ll just wait to see it to find everything out. The film stars Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Joseph Quinn, Ebon-Moss-Bachrach, Ralph Ineson, Julia Garner, Paul Walter-Hauser, Natasha Lyonne, Sarah Niles, and John Malkovich.
