13 Kick-Ass Upcoming Movies Nobody Is Talking About

12. Serenity

Serenity Matthew McConaughey
Aviron Pictures

In October, Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway link up for this stylish-looking neo-noir and on the back of the trailer, it looks intense, taut and totally gripping.

While the title might accidentally excite sci-fi fans for the wrong reason, Serenity has a lot going for it on its own terms. The cast is great, with McConaughey and Hathaway looking on strong form and support from the likes of Diane Lane, Jason Clarke and Djimon Hounsou.

Most exciting is Steven Knight's name above the door as director. A movie by the creator of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? might not sound all that great, but Knight also has far more interesting credits on his CV as creator and writer. He's one of the brains behind both Peaky Blinders and Taboo, for instance and has written Allied, Eastern Promises and Locke among others.

He's supremely talented and his debut definitely looks like an interesting one...

Release: October 19, 2018
