Here are the 8 most anticipated science fiction films of 2025

After Marvel films and horror films, here are the 8 most anticipated science fiction films of 2025.

Star Trek : Section 31 – January 24

So we didn’t see this one coming… This new license film Star Trek is directed by the director Olatunde Osunsanmi. The latter already has experience on the saga since he has already worked for the series Star Trek : Discovery on numerous occasions. If we have heard very little about Section 31this is because the film is directly expected on Paramount+. Section 31 is a spin-off of the series Discovery. Spin-off which will focus on Philippa Georgiouthe character embodied by the immense Michelle Yeoh. To be reserved, undoubtedly, for fans of the series. But an exit Star Trek is always a small event.

Mickey 17 – 5 mars

This is perhaps the most anticipated science fiction film of the year. Staged by Bong Joon Ho (Parasite), Mickey 17 will stage Robert Pattinson in the shoes of Mickey. The latter is a consumable being. He voluntarily signed up for an experiment that involves killing him over and over again. In addition to offering a somewhat WTF synopsis and trailer, Mickey 17 seduces us especially for this unprecedented collaboration between one of the best directors on the planet and one of the best American actors of his generation.

The Electric State – 14 mars

Before returning to the license Avengers, the brothers Russo are going to take a little detour through the box Netflix. After The Grey Manthe Russo brothers return once again to the big N platform for a new science fiction film: The Electric State. Led by a crazy cast: Millie Bobby Brown (all over Netflix), Chris Pratt, Michelle Yeoh (her again!), Stanley Tucci, Brian Cox or even Giancarlo Esposito (just everywhere), The Electric State seems to be inspired by The Iron Giant. The story will tell how a little girl will meet a robot from space. The latter was actually sent by his missing brother. The two protagonists will then go looking for the young boy.

Ash – 21 mars

And Ash is scheduled for March 21 in US theatersit does not yet have a release date in France. This little science fiction film directed by Flying Lotus (V/H/S/99) intrigues us especially for its casting. In front of the camera, we will find Eiza Gonzalezrecently noticed in Ambulance, notre Aaron Paul loved the series Breaking Badand the talented Iko Uwais who made us dream in the saga The Raid. The story will tell how a woman wakes up on a distant planet. She discovers that her entire crew has been brutally murdered. She must then decide if she trusts the man who was sent to her rescue.

Tron : Ares – October 8

2025 will also mark the great return of the license Tron. 15 years later Tron Legacy and above all more than 40 years after the original film, a third feature film Tron is about to hit our screens. This time, the production is entrusted to the Norwegian Joachim Rønning (Maleficent: The Power of Evil). On the casting side, we can count on the presence of Jared Leto (good or bad news?), Evan Peters et Cameron Monaghan. Fortunately for the fans, Tron : Ares will also mark the return of Jeff Bridgeswho will take over the role of Kevin Flynn for the 3rd time in a row.

Bugonia – November 5th

Certainly, lately, Yorgos Lanthimos is very prolific. In 2024 alone, the Greek filmmaker released two feature films: Poor creatures et Kinds of Kindness. In 2025, it will offer us Bugonia, a science fiction film which will tell how two men will kidnap a great CEO, convinced that she is an alien whose true desire is to destroy the Earth. On the casting side, the filmmaker surrounds himself with actors with whom he is used to working, including Emma Stone et Willem Dafoe. We can’t wait!

Predator : Badlands – November 5th

3 years after the rather pleasant Prey, the license Predator is making a comeback this year. Then Trachtenberg is back behind the camera. We don’t yet know much about this new episode. Logically, Predator : Badlands should focus on the fate of two sisters: Thia and Tessawhose relationship is tested as they uncover a terrifying past. On the casting side, it is rumored that Elle Fanning could play one of the two sisters. Regardless of the ins and outs of this new chapter, the return of the license Predator is always a phenomenon in itself.

Avatar : Fire and Ash – December 17

It is obviously the most anticipated science fiction film of the year 2025. James Cameron is back for a third consecutive time behind the camera of the saga Avatar. After a Avatar: The Way of Water generally appreciated by critics and spectators, the third chapter of the adventures of Jake Sully arrives for Christmas. All the usual cast, viz. Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldana, Sigourney Weaver, Stephen Lang, Kate Winslet et Cliff Curtisis back. A third part which should present a new clan of Na’vithat of fire. We’ll see you next winter!
