The most eagerly anticipated 2019 film releases are Avengers: Endgame and Captain Marvel, according to the social movie ticketing app called Atom Tickets. Toy Story 4 rounds out the top 3. “Although we expect to see some movement in preferences as release dates near and studios ramp up marketing efforts, there were clear winners in each category. The battles for box office dominance between Dwayne Johnson, Lupita Nyong’o, The Avengers, and Star Wars will be epic, and the 2019 slate looks great overall,” said Matthew Bakal, Chairman and Co-Founder of Atom Tickets.
