The Most Anticipated Sequels

10
Terminator 4
Nick Stahl is rumored to be returning for the fourth installment, but all we know now is that the script is ready and production is going to begin sometime this year.
Set Release Date: Sometime in 2008

9
Jurassic Park 4
Yes, there is going to be another addition to Jurassic Park. The script is being developed and the current working title is Jurassic Park 4: The Extinction. No word on who will be a part of the cast or what the story is going to be.
Set Release Date: Sometime in 2008

8
Live Free or Die Hard
A terrorist organization is trying to shut down the US economy via the Internet. John McClane of course signs up to save the day along with a hacker sidekick played by Justin Long, who you might recognize as the spokesman for Apple Mac and for his memorable role in "Dodgeball."
Set Release Date: June 27, 2007

7
Sequel to The Departed
Nothing much to know about this one since "The Departed" came out on DVD not too long ago. However, there is a second one in the works, fans will flock to it and that's all that matters.
Set Release Date: Sometime 2009

6
Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End
The final chapter to the Pirates trilogy is almost at hand, with Geoffrey Rush back for the final installment as Captain Barbossa, the gang must find a way to save Jack from the Kraken and stop Davey Jones and Lord Cutler Beckett from bringing the world to ruins. Reportedly the cast (especially Depp) is very sad to be hanging up their cutlasses, and hope there's still chapters to be written about Captain Jack Sparrow and his adventures. Official site.
Set Release Date: May 25, 2007

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
This film is based on J.K. Rowling's fifth book, and of course the whole cast is back, even "dirty" Harry after his recent controversial nude scenes. Harry and the gang form the Order of the Phoenix in order to learn how to defend themselves against He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named aka Lord Voldemort...oops! David Yates directs this installment. Check out the official site.
Set Release Date: July 13, 2007

Sin City 2
A new cult classic, bringing in Tarantino and Frank Miller fans from all over, "Sin City 2" will no doubt be a smash at the box office. Nothing is set in stone, but so far the second installment is supposedly about Dwight planning revenge against an old flame, Ava Lord, while Nancy is trying to cope with the recent death of Hartigan. Rachel Weisz is still the front runner for the role of Ava Lord, but no word yet on if she's officially signed on. After "Grindhouse" is released, there should be more developments on "Sin City 2." For updates on the films progress go here.
Set Release Date: Sometime 2008

The Dark Knight
The franchise that will never die...Batman! It will outlast us all, and with Christian Bale returning as Bruce Wayne, I look forward to its continuance. Batman and Lt. Gordon team up with the newly appointed DA Harvey Dent (our future two-face), to stop the vicious killer The Joker (played by Heath Ledger). Maggie Gyllenhaal is our new Rachel Dawes (thank god!) and Aaron Eckhart is Harvey Dent. With this new and exciting cast, I can't wait to see what they're going to do with this one. The sky is the limit! Filming begins this month. If your a fanatic you'll want to check this out.
Set Release Date: July 18, 2008

2
Indiana Jones 4
So there is definitely a fourth Indiana Jones in the works with the 65-year-old Ford as Jones, who else. Not too much is known of the story or the cast. Rumors are flying that Sean Connery might be back, or that Shia LaBeouf or Natalie Portman may be playing his kid. No one really knows for sure. Cate Blanchett, however, is reportedly signed on to be Jones' right hand woman and there is talk of Ray Winstone ("The Departed") joining the cast most likely as the villain. To keep up to snuff on the films developments try this site.
Set Release Date: May 22, 2008

1
Spider-Man 3
In this third addition, a dark entity bonds with Spider-Man, creating inner-conflict while having to deal with new villains such as Sandman (played by Thomas Haden Church) and the new Green Goblin (played by James Franco). This may even be Maguire's last act as the superhero before he moves on to other things. Check it all out here.
Set Release Date: May 4, 2007
