Infinity Warhas been declared the most anticipated movie of 2018.

The first non-Marvel movie on the list isJurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, which comes in at the number four spot. The upcomingTomb Raiderreboot rounds out the top five.
The rest of the top 10 includePacific Rim: Uprising, Shane Black’sThe Predator,Ocean’s Eight, which just had its first trailer arrive online,Mission: Impossible 6and last but not least,Solo: A Star Wars Story.
