12 Upcoming Movies Nerds Should Be Most Thankful For

10. Triple 9

Release Date: February 19th 2016 How€™s about this for a ridiculous cast: Casey Affleck, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Anthony Mackie, Aaron Paul, Norman Reedus, Woody Harrelson, Kate Winslet, Clifton Collins, Jr., Michael K. Williams, Teresa Palmer and Gal Gadot? Pick your jaw up, eh? They will converge for an Ocean€™s Eleven style heist, only with the smugness replaced with grit and drama, at the hands of John Hillcoat. The premise sounds glorious: a group of corrupt cops and criminals are forced pull off a job (and kill a rookie cop - Casey Affleck) by a blackmailing Russian gangster€™s moll. Why Should You Be Thankful? There€™s a good chance that cast might be the best of any upcoming film, and the idea of seeing the coolest trio of TV anti-heroes together at once (Reedus, Paul and Williams) is legitimately something to lose your sh*t over. And then there€™s the genius idea of Kate Winslet as the devious blackmailing moll who kicks the heist off: has she ever been cast in a more intriguing role?
