10 Upcoming Movies From This Year's Oscar Winners That You Shouldn't Miss

4. True Story - Brad Pitt

Release Date: Late 2014

Oscar-winning producer Brad Pitt - yes, we can write that as an actual legitimate sentence now - isn't set to star in next year's True Story, but he is on board as a producer, which means that he must have seen something special in it. Based on a memoir by Michael Finkel, True Story is set to star Jonah Hill, James Franco, Felicity Jones and Gretchen Mol, and tells the - yes - true story of a guy who murdered his family and hid under the guise of a real journalist. If you're wondering what the means, exactly, don't ask us: read the book or just wait for the movie, we guess. Given its cast and its sort of self-aware title, though, True Story sounds as though it might be played as something akin to a farce on the big screen, though when you consider the family-murdering subject matter, it's hard to imagine it as such. Still, whatever this turns out to be, it has Pitt, Hill and Franco involved; it's going to be good.
