24 Most Hotly Anticipated Movies Of 2014

13. Maleficent (May)

The Pitch... The untold story of Disney's most iconic villain, starring a perfectly cast Angelina Jolie, and adding something new to the age old Sleeping Beauty legend. Plus Points Jolie is incredibly well cast, and villain-centric stories invariably offer more promise than heroic ones, particularly when the subject is so iconic. Director Robert Stromberh also knows how to make a film look good, having worked as production designed on Oz The Great & Powerful and Alice In Wonderland. The Reservations... Let's just hope that Stromberg shows more commitment to substance over style than both of those two movies for his directorial debut.
