"With 2013 drawing to a close, it&amp;#039;s time to look ahead to the next 12 months and see what big-screen treats are in store for movie fans. Expect new instalments of your favourite blockbuster franchises alongside classy dramas with their eyes on awards season. From Angelina Jolie&amp;#039;s Maleficent to Benedict Cumberbatch&amp;#039;s The Imitation Game, Digital Spy previews the 20 must-watch movies of the upcoming year counting down from numbers 20 through to 11. 20. Maleficent Released: May 30 Why you should see it: Disney&amp;#039;s re-telling of Sleeping Beauty brings Angelina Jolie back to the big screen as the &amp;#039;Mistress of All Evil&amp;#039;, while Elle Fanning takes on the role of Princess Aurora. Expect some lavish spectacle and a potential scenery-chewing performance from Angelina.   19. Exodus Released: December 12 Why you should see it: Ridley Scott goes Biblical in this reworking of the Moses tale with Christian Bale in the lead role. Notably, the film also marks the reunion between Scott and his Alien star Sigourney Weaver. His one-time Ripley will play Tuya in a cast that also includes Aaron Paul, Ben Kingsley and Joel Edgerton.  18. Transcendence Released: April 25 Why you should see it: Christopher Nolan&amp;#039;s long-time cinematographer steps into the director&amp;#039;s chair for the first time for this trippy sci-fi tale about computers transcending the power of the human brain. Leading man Johnny Depp told us to expect &amp;quot;highly-technological AI madness&amp;quot;. Count us in!  17. Godzilla Released: May 16 Why you should see it: Cinemagoers left Roland Emmerich&amp;#039;s Godzilla disappointed in 1998, so it&amp;#039;s understandable that this reboot is being met with a fair bit of skepticism. However, we managed to catch a glimpse of some footage at Comic-Con and this looks a lot more promising than expected. Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Bryan Cranston and Juliette Binoche are among the eclectic monster-chasing cast.  16. Divergent Released: April 4 Why you should see it: Could this be the new Hunger Games? Veronica Roth&amp;#039;s dystopian sci-fi trilogy has generated plenty of hype in the YA literary world, so we&amp;#039;re eager to see if this can translate to a Hollywood movie. In Shailene Woodley, the film has a fantastic up-and-coming actress to shoulder this potential blockbuster franchise.  15. Captain America: The Winter Soldier Released: March 28 Why you should see it: Now that the exposition-heavy origin story is out the way, this Captain America sequel can get down to the business of telling an all-action adventure story with Steve Rogers (Chris Evans) in the present day. Marvel will continue to expand its cinematic universe by introducing Robert Redford as SHIELD chief Alexander Pierce and Anthony Mackie as The Falcon.  14. Foxcatcher Released: TBC Why you should see it: Bennett Miller marked himself as a director to watch thanks to Capote and Moneyball, and he&amp;#039;ll return in 2014 with this true-life tale of murderer John duPont. Steve Carell, all greyed hair and prosthetic nose, is barely recognisable in the lead role, which suggests a big powerhouse performance could be on the way from the one-time Dunder Mifflin boss.  13. Noah Released: March 28 Why you should see it: Darren Aronofsky&amp;#039;s Russell Crowe-led Biblical epic has already courted pre-release controversy in religious circles thanks to its early press screenings, so expect this to hit the headlines when it arrives next March. Aronofsky&amp;#039;s films often divide opinion (is there a more Marmite movie than The Fountain?), but they nearly always stick in the memory and leave you with questions.  12. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 Released: April 18 Why you should see it: While Marc Webb&amp;#039;s Spidey reboot struggled to distinguish itself from Sam Raimi&amp;#039;s version, this follow-up promises some intriguing new scene partners for Andrew Garfield, with Dane DeHaan stepping into James Franco&amp;#039;s shoes as Harry Osborn and Jamie Foxx playing iconic villain Electro.   11. The Imitation Game Released: TBC Why you should see it: This biopic of wartime code breaker Alan Turing offers Sherlock&amp;#039;s man of the moment Benedict Cumberbatch a juicy period drama to sink his teeth into. Keira Knightley, Charles Dance and Mark Strong are among the esteemed Brit cast for Morten Tyldum&amp;#039;s drama. Could this be the first Oscar nomination for Cumberbatch?
