12 Upcoming Sci-Fi Movies That Could Be Better Than Star Wars: The Last Jedi

4. Gemini Man

Will Smith After Earth
Columbia Pictures

Release Date: October 4, 2019

Though Gemini Man hasn't started shooting yet, it's sure to be one of the most talked-about movies to hit screens between now and the release of Star Wars Episode IX.

Again proving himself to be one of the most diverse and adventurous directors working today, Ang Lee opts to tackle big-budget sci-fi with this film about a senior NSA official (Will Smith) who finds himself hunted by a younger clone of himself on the eve of his retirement.

It's a nutty premise with a ton of potential that speaks for itself, and seeing a filmmaker of Lee's calibre teaming with a veritable star like Smith could result in a movie that's both an Oscar contender and a box office smash.

Plus, Smith can finally redeem himself for his last sci-fi film, M. Night Shyamalan's disastrous After Earth.
