11 Movies We Can’t Wait to See at Sundance 2025

I love how Hollywood restarts its year in January with the Sundance Film Festival. Even though the fest is in Park City, it just feels like everyone in town uses Sundance as the emotional start of their tracking of titles and new voices from the fest.

For me, I see it as the same. It’s cool to see these projects elevate their creators and artists and get them into the spotlight.

Have a hit at Sundance, and chances are you’re going to have a pretty great year.

So, what movies should we be keeping an eye on out of Park City this year?
