15 Original Upcoming Movies That Might Save Hollywood

What It's About: No plot information is available at this time.

Why It Can Save Hollywood: You might not think that an M. Night Shyamalan movie is worth much these days, but the infamous filmmaker surprised just about everyone with how good his low-budget found footage film The Visit was.

Split sees the director returning to the more modestly-budgeted fare of his earlier movies, all while roping in James McAvoy to star, providing plenty of hope that this mystery project might be a return to the engrossing thriller fare that made Shyamalan such a hot filmmaker in the first place.

Sure, The Visit could be a fluke and he may have simply lost his flare for making good movies, but there's a good reason to be optmistic all the same.
