Thor: Ragnarok tops Justice League as most anticipated movie of the fall

September 7, 2017 by Gary Collinson

With the summer movie season over, Fandango has unveiled the results of its poll to find the most anticipated films of Fall 2017, with Marvel Studios’ cosmic superhero sequel Thor: Ragnarok fending off competition from Warner Bros.’ DC team-up Justice League to top the list.

“Moviegoers always look forward to the fall season when some of the year’s best films debut,” says Fandango Managing Editor Erik Davis. “This year there’s an especially diverse slate full of a little something for everyone. Thor: Ragnarok claims the most anticipated title, thanks to the overwhelming momentum and excitement the Marvel Studios brand has built up over the years, plus fans can’t wait to see more of Mark Ruffalo’s Hulk, as well as Cate Blanchett and Tessa Thompson in new-to-the-franchise roles.”

Chris Hemsworth was also named Most Anticipated Actor, while Gal Gadot – coming off the huge success of this summer’s Wonder Woman – tops the list of the Most Anticipated Actresses as she reprises the role of the Amazon Princess for Justice League. Check out the full poll results here…
