🎥🍿 Top 10 Highly Anticipated Movies with Box Office Predictions 🎟️🎬
Welcome back to the Silver Screen!👋
As we move forward in 2022, the anticipation for new movies has only intensified. From superheroes to sequels, the film industry has a lot in store for us. But which ones are generating the most buzz? And more importantly, which ones will make the most money?
Without further ado, let’s take a look at the top 10 most highly anticipated movies of 2022 with box office predictions.
1. Avatar: The Way of Water 💧
Avatar: The Way of Water has been highly anticipated ever since the first Avatar movie was released back in 2009. The franchise’s first movie grossed over $2.7 billion at the worldwide box office, which has set a standard that the sequel is expected to outreach. The Way of Water is finally here to provide fans with an exciting journey once again, taking place under the sea of Pandora which was introduced in the first movie. Director James Cameron spent years developing new technologies to accurately capture the magical world of the original, which is why the production has notoriously been delayed. Nonetheless, we can expect that this highly anticipated sequel will rake in an immense amount of money; we are predicting a $2.5 billion box office performance.
2. The Batman 🦇
Old Batman fans will be happy to know that this new movie is focusing on a much younger version of the hero, following Robert Pattinson’s portrayal of the character in his early years. The new version of the dark knight is receiving a lot of hype, and early trailers and sneak peeks have already attracted a large fan base. The estimated box office prediction for the film to hit is $1.7 billion.
3. Black Panther: Wakanda Forever 🤴🏿
Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is expected to be a huge box office hit as the first movie grossed over $1.3 billion and marvel fans everywhere were devastated by the passing of Chadwick Boseman who played King T’Challa. If this sequel does live up to its expectations, then it can definitely be another billion-dollar movie. However, it is not going to be easy as the original won and nominations for major categories like Best Picture, among others. The movie is set to release on different Disney+ channels in November, which adds a new dimension to the potential ticket sales. Wakanda Forever has an estimated box office prediction of $1.5 billion.
4. Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore 🧙🏻♂️
The third installment of the Fantastic Beasts movie series, The Secrets of Dumbledore, is once again taking us to the magical world of Harry Potter. With Harry Potter being a mega-hit movie franchise, this one will only add to its already massive collection of box office champions. The expected box office prediction for this film is around $1.2 billion.
5. Jurassic World: Dominion 🦖
Jurassic World: Dominion is the third and final chapter of the franchise and is reportedly the most expensive movie in the franchise’s history. It is easy to predict that this movie will make a considerable amount of money because of how immensely popular the past two movies have been. We can predict that it will hit the $1 billion mark, but whether it surpasses the original Jurassic Park movie in box office collections is yet to be seen.
6. Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse 🕷️
The sequel to the highly successful animated movie ‘Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse’ is set to release in October 2022. The first film was a critical and commercial success, grossing over $375 million worldwide. The new version of our friendly neighborhood hero through the multiverse is something to look forward to. It is expected to collect $750 million in box office revenue.
7. Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness 🌀
This movie will be the first Marvel film to tackle the concept of multiverses, and with a starring role of Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange, this movie is one of the most highly-anticipated ones for Marvel fans. The estimated box office prediction for the film is around $1.3 billion.
8. Sonic the Hedgehog 2 🦔
The Sonic the Hedgehog film franchise has managed to capture an audience with the visually spectacular and entertaining first film adaptation of the classic 90s video game. With the first movie grossing over $300 million, it is not hard to predict that the second movie will do just as good. The estimated box office collection for the Sonic the Hedgehog 2 movie is $750 million.
9. Indiana Jones 5 🎩
This longstanding franchise has thrilled audiences for decades and with a fifth installment, we can expect the same adventurous storyline. This film will feature Harrison Ford returning in the titular role in what will likely be his final performance as the character. The expected box office prediction for Indian Jones 5 is around $700 million.
10. The Flash 🔥
The Flash is bringing the speedster into the forefront of DC’s extended universe, with Ezra Miller reprising his role as the titular character. The expected box office prediction for this film is around $800 million.
