15 Most Anticipated Sci-Fi Movies Coming In 2021
4. Voyagers
Limitless and Divergent director Neil Burger is returning to the world of sci-fi for Voyagers, a movie he's also written. In plot details shared with the trades when it was first announced, it's said that the action is "set in the near future," revolving around "the odyssey of 30 young men and women who are sent deep into space on a multi-generational mission to search for a new home."
The catch here, though, is that they then start devolving into "primal" beings, likely meaning that these intelligent astronauts will soon start targeting each other in what could prove to be something of a sci-fi/horror mashup.
In some respect, it doesn't exactly sound groundbreaking, but there's no reason to suspect this won't be a fun ride when it arrives next year (it's currently undated, but the movie is done).
Colin Farrell, Tye Sheridan, and Lily-Rose Depp lead the cast, and considering the fact it's been described as "Lord of the Flies in space," it would be silly to overlook this one.
