As the summer movie season ends, we now look to the fall which has a slew of releases that are bound to garner the attention of moviegoers and it looks like some are getting more attention than others.
According to a Fandango survey, Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald tops their list of the most-anticipated movies of the fall movie season. It is followed by the Freddie Mercury biopic, Bohemian Rhapsody and closes out with Venom in third.
Over 1,000 film fans voted in Fandango’s fall movie survey which polled moviegoers which movies they were looking forward to seeing between September 7 and Thanksgiving weekend. Bohemian Rhapsody and A Star is Born, which ranked fifth, are likely to be award season contenders but I can also see how they would break into the mainstream movie consciousness.
In addition to the most anticipated movie, Fandango surveyed fans in categories such as Most Anticipated Actor and Actress as well as Most Anticipated Horror and Family movies. Here are the complete results below:
