This year movies have been a huge influence on media and culture and now Heritage students are looking forward to what great movies are coming out this year.

Starting off with November movies, the year-long wait is over as Wicked: For Good is set to release November 21. Wicked is the musical-movie creation of the original play which is a prequel to The Wizard of Oz. The movie highlights friendship and the difference between following a corrupt leader just to fit in rather than following what is right.

“I’ve watched the Broadway production and I really like the second act way more than the first act because it really shows more about Elphaba’s character,” said Vilma Alvarez (10).

Speaking of sequels, after nine years there will finally be a sequel to Zootopia coming out November 26. Zootopia emphasizes the idea of never giving up as the main character struggles to achieve her dream and become a police officer.

“I think [Zootopia] is a great family bonding movie and I am excited for the release,” said Denis Landeverde (10).

Leading into movies coming out in December, Five Nights at Freddies 2 is coming out December 5.

Fnaf 2 is an adaptation of the Five Nights at Freddie’s video game series which are mainly horror based. Even though Garcia is excited about Fnaf 2 he expresses that the casting is a bit odd, specifically criticizing certain voice actors like Megan Fox for her poor voice acting in previous films she has featured in.

It seems that many students around campus are excited for the movies coming out
