20th Century Fox is riding high after a massive 2016 that featured their breakout hit DEADPOOL. While not receiving quite the critical acclaim of that film, Fox still managed to make money on X-MEN: APOCALYPSE as well as the long awaited sequel INDEPENDENCE DAY: RESURGENCE. Fox also banked on their collaboration with DreamWorks Animation with hits TROLLS and KUNG FU PANDA 3. All of this accounted for $1.46 billion at the box office which they hope to top in 2017 with new animation, new Wolverine, a new Alien film, and lots of comedies.
Check out the full slate of 2017 releases from 20th Century Fox and let us know which ones you are excited about in the talk backs below.
