20 Most Anticipated Movies For The Rest Of 2026
6. Fjord
Fjord is the new drama from the brilliant Cristian Mungiu, a Romanian filmmaker best known for his films 4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days, and Beyond the Hills.
His new film premiered recently at the Cannes Film Festival, where it took the coveted Palme d'Or prize, positioning it to become a serious threat for next year's Oscars.
As for the story? Sebastian Stan and Renate Reinsve star as a Romanian father and Norwegian mother who move to a remote Norwegian village and are soon enough accused of abusing their children.
Reviews from Cannes have called Fjord a complex, tense, and provocative drama about culture clash, and one that's sure to remain on the lips of cinephiles the world over once it releases later in the year. Mungiu's writing and directing have received glowing praise, as have the performances of both Stan and Reinsve, who, if backed by a sufficient marketing campaign from Neon, could find themselves vying for Oscars next year.
Fjord releases TBA 2026.
