50 Most Anticipated Movies Of 2021

29. Babylon

Whiplash Damien Chazelle
Sony

Damien Chazelle's new mini-epic Babylon is said to take place during the transition from silent film to talkies, and will star Margot Robbie (replacing the recently-departing Emma Stone), Brad Pitt, and Tobey Maguire.

Little is known beyond that, but given Chazelle's standing in the industry as one of the hottest young filmmakers working today, it's safe to say that the project is already one of 2021's buzziest.

Though it'll certainly be a race for Chazelle to deliver the film in less than a year given that he hasn't started shooting yet, he managed to premiere First Man at Venice just 9 months after shooting started, so it's absolutely possible.

Release Date: December 25
