30 Most Hotly Anticipated Movies Still To Come In 2016 - Ranked
11. A Monster Calls
Release Date: October 14th
Billed As: Get ready to cry: a monster appears to a young boy to tell him three stories to help him deal with his mother's cancer.
Hype: This emotionally charged supernatural adaptation has a great cast, including Liam Neeson, Sigourney Weaver, Felicity Jones and Toby Kebbell, but the appeal here is far bigger than the cast.
The story is the biggest selling point: it follows a child's encounter with a giant tree monster with the booming, irresistible voice of Neeson, whose agenda is to help deal with the devastating tragedy of his mother's illness.
The book is rightly considered one of the greatest ever children's books and it is as beautiful as it is emotionally devastating.
