- Michael Mann’s first film in six years
- Roy Andersson’s first film in seven years
- Wim Wenders’ first narrative feature in seven years
- Todd Haynes’ first theatrical feature in eight years
- Warren Beatty’s first film 14 years
- Quentin Tarantino shooting a western in entirely in 65mm
- Rick Linklater with his long-awaited “spiritual sequel” to Dazed and Confused

There is also Jeremy Saulnier's follow-up to Blue Ruin, Green Room with Patrick Stewart as the leader of a gang of ruthless skinheads. If it's as any good as his previous work, he better keep his titles color-coded.
