10 Most Exciting New Movies & TV Shows Just Announced (April 2021)

10. Crimes Of The Future

It's been an entire seven years since David Cronenberg's last film, Maps to the Stars, premiered at Cannes, and given that the legendary filmmaker recently hinted he may never make another movie, many of his fans assumed his career was basically done.

So it's a fantastic surprise that Cronenberg just announced he's heading to Greece in the summer to shoot Crimes of the Future, a sci-fi film the particulars of which are unknown.

Cronenberg's regular collaborator Viggo Mortensen is set to star and has also hinted that the film will be a return to the body horror stylings of the director's earlier work.

Curiously Cronenberg has actually made a film with this title before - his 1970 sophomore feature - though this project is believed to be unrelated beyond its title.

To see the 78-year-old director back in the saddle once more is enormously exciting to say the least, especially with Mortensen taking the lead role.
