10. Macbeth
Release Date: December 4th (limited)
Cast: Michael Fassbender, Marion Cotillard, Elizabeth Debicki, Sean Harris, David Thewlis
Directed by: Justin Kurzel
Macbeth is one of my favorite plays from good ole Shakes, and the cast here is stellar. Michael Fassbender and Marion Cotillard as Macbeth and Lady Macbeth is perfect casting. This could be a big year for Fassbender. I could see this being boring and forgettable, but the trailer really sold me. The film looks gorgeous, and ruthless. I also get a real Noah vibe, although not as fantastical. The reason this got on my top ten though is you don’t see a lot of movies like this getting made anymore, so it really has me curious.
Oscar Alert! There’s potential here for all major categories, although unless it’s truly great, it won’t reach enough people.
