40. PREDICTED - Brian Fee's Original Pixar Movie

Wall E
Pixar

Release Date: 19th June, 2020

This is a slight cheat on the prediction front, because all we know about Brian Fee's next project is that it's going to be an original movie, unlike Cars 3, which he cut his directing teeth on.

Fee also worked on Ratatouille and Wall-E and is very much one of the Pixar family, so he'll know exactly what fans want from their Pixar movies. Expect lots of emotion, as ever, lots of material for kids AND adults and lots of lovely marketable characters. He did express his desire to make Cars 3 a tale of female empowerment (he is the father of daughters), so there may be some hint there as to at least a narrative undercurrent.

Time will tell on this one.

39. Free Guy

Criminal Ryan Reynolds
Summit Entertainment

Release Date: 3rd July, 2020

Ryan Reynolds' attempts at movie stardom - outside of Deadpool and now Pokemon - have been a little hit-and-miss, but action-comedy Free Guy has enough tools to suggest it’ll be a winner for the Detective Pikachu actor.

The film, directed by Shawn Levy, sees Reynolds play Guy, a bank teller who realises his life is actually taking place inside a video game, and teams up with an avatar to stop the creators from shutting the game down. It’s a fun premise, albeit one that could go very, very awry, and the strong cast includes Killing Eve star Jodie Comer, Stranger Things breakout joe Keery, and the wonderful Taika Waititi.

NCTJ-qualified journalist. Most definitely not a racing driver. Drink too much tea; eat too much peanut butter; watch too much TV. Sadly only the latter paying off so far. A mix of wise-old man in a young man's body with a child-like wonder about him and a great otherworldly sensibility.
