“It’s great to see so many brilliant movies due to come out this year, and it’s interesting to see which ones the world is looking forward to seeing the most,” NoDepositDaily’s Mervyn Davids commented on the findings. “Due to the 2023 Writer’s strike, several films had to be delayed in production, pushing back their release dates. Luckily for film enthusiasts, this means there is a plethora of titles to tick off their lists in 2024.”
