Daniel Radcliff is back as a wizard! But not in the new continuation of the Harry Potter films, but in the film Now You See Me 2, which is the continuation of the successful comedy-action thriller Now You See Me (Masters of Illusion), in which Mark Ruffalo, Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Dave Franco, Daniel Radcliffe, Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine and Isla Fisher, all of whom, with the remarkable latter (replaced by Lizzy Caplan due to pregnancy), also return in the sequel, which takes place a year after the events of the first film.

John Malkovich and Robert Rodriguez are teaming up for 100 Years, a movie that no one, absolutely no one, will be able to see for the next 100 years. You read that right! The film won't be released until November 2115, when a select few will be able to see it.
Wondering which movies are the most anticipated movies of 2016? 2016 is a year of anticipation for film connoisseurs, as many highly anticipated films will be released. In the following, we publish a list of the most eagerly awaited films of the coming year, which promise a lot and hopefully justify the high expectations.
The Huntsman: Winter's War is a prequel to Snow White and the Huntsman, which revived the famous story in 2012, but gave it a very dark tone. The film returns Charlize Theron and Chris Hemsworth reprising their roles as the evil Queen Ravenna and the hunter Eric from the original film, this time being directed by Cedric Nicolas-Troyan, who has added Emily Blunt to the cast as the Ice Queen and the Queen's sister Ravenne and Jessica Chastain as Sara, the love of the hunter.
Gods of Egypt is an American fantasy film about Egyptian deities. And as always, there's trouble in paradise. The main blame goes to Gerard Butler, who this time turned into a villain, as he plays the role of Set, the ancient Egyptian god of war and darkness (a warrior with an animal head), who takes over the throne of the Egyptian empire by force. Watch the trailer for the film, directed by Alex Proyas, in which Butler is sidelined by Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, who is well known to all Game of Thrones fans.
The Finest Hours is an epic Disney disaster movie based on the 2009 book of the same name by Casey Sherman and Michael J. Tougias. It is the true story of the 1952 Pendleton rescue mission, when a storm tore the tanker in half. The film stars Chris Pine, Casey Affleck and Eric Bana.
Finding Dory is the sequel to the animated hit Saving Little Nemo, which follows the cute little fish Dory, who "stole the show" in the 2003 animated cartoon with her supporting role, and 13 years later she returns to the big screen in the main role. After finding Nemo, we will now be looking for the very talkative but forgetful Dory, voiced again by comedian Ellen DeGeneres, which promises a new dose of fun for the whole family.
London Has Fallen is a sequel to the hit film Olympus Has Fallen, in which Gerard Butler once again took on the role of Secret Service agent Mike Banning. While in the first part he had to protect the American president from an attack and infiltration of the North Korean army into the White House, now, promoted to the head of the American secret service, who follows the president like a shadow, he must face an even more difficult challenge and protect the president from terrorists in London, where, in addition to the most influential man in the world, other political leaders of the world are gathered.
Criminal Activities is an American crime drama in which Jackie Earle Haley, who has an enviable acting career, made his camera debut. Among other things, he performed the famous Freddy Krueger. This time too, he jumped ahead, but left the main role to John Travolta as a gangster and a naive four high school friends (Dan Stevens, Michael Pitt, Christopher Abbott and Rob Brown) whose lives are turned upside down by a foolish investment.
The video game Warcraft (Blizzard Entertainment) has grown into a real social phenomenon in 21 years (1994), so it is logical that the film adaptation of this video game franchise is so highly anticipated. From computer screens, the epic adventure moves to the big screen in June 2016, when we will return to the time of the outbreak of war between humans and orcs. The burden of the (unrealistically) high expectations of the film was borne by Duncan Jones, who had previously proven himself with the films Luna and Source Code.
13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi is a true-life action thriller directed by the father of non-stop action Michael Bay (Alcatraz, Transformers, Ninja Turtles), a director known for blowing things up. 3 Arts Entertainment Bay Films made a lot of money for it, as the production of the film cost almost 40 million US dollars. But this is how Michael Bay does it, for whom this is the first war (but not biographical) film. Big budget and spectacular. The story revolves around a group of soldiers trying to secure the American embassy in the Libyan city of Benghazi.
Kung Fu Panda is one of the most successful animated franchises in history and is returning to the big screen in 2016. In the animated film Kung Fu Panda 3, we will again be able to witness the adventures of the now no longer clumsy panda Po and his friends. Pandastic! It's a sequel to Kung Fu Panda 2 (again with tons of stellar voices), when Po's biological father enters his life, and he embarks on Po's biggest adventure yet.
