We're still expecting over 20 superhero movies to come to the big screen between now and 2020. But which ones are coming in 2018?
Most people are hyped for the next "Avengers" movie, but there's much more than Marvel's "Infinity War" to get excited over if you love superheroes.
From R-rated laugh-fests to another DC Comics installment, keep reading to see which heroes — and villains — we'll see on the big screen this year.

Chadwick Boseman will start the year out with his own "Black Panther" solo movie.
Release date: February 16
What it's about: Before we get to the summer, Disney's next Marvel movie will follow T'Challa (Chadwick Boseman) after the events of "Captain America: Civil War." After the death of his father, he returns home to take his rightful place as king of Wakanda. That's not going to sit well with an old foe (Michael B. Jordan).
Why you should see it: The star-studded cast includes Forest Whitaker, Angela Bassett, Andy Serkis, Lupita Nyong'o, Michael B. Jordan, and "The Walking Dead" actress Danai Gurira. Fans have been waiting since Black Panther's first comic-book appearance in 1966 for the character to get some recognition on the big screen.

"Game of Thrones" star Maisie Williams will join the "X-Men" universe in "The New Mutants."
Release date: April 13
What it's about: Sophie Turner isn't the only "Game of Thrones" star to head to Fox's "X-Men" franchise. The spin-off looks like a horror movie following five mutants who are trying to escape a hospital-like facility.
Why to see it: The first trailer for the film looks unlike any "X-Men" movie we've seen and that's a good thing. Since the success of "Deadpool" and "Logan," Fox has really started leaning into R-rated superhero movies.
Plus, Charlie Heaton from "Stranger Things" and "Game of Thrones" star Maisie Williams are in it.

All of Disney's Marvel characters will come together in "Avengers: Infinity War."
Release date: May 4
What it's about: The third "Avengers" movie will unite the group with the Guardians of the Galaxy, Spider-Man, Doctor Strange, and more as they go up against Gamora's father Thanos (Josh Brolin). He's been slowly curating six powerful Infinity Stones that have appeared throughout Marvel's many movies. (You can read more on those here.)
Why to see it: We'll get to see just about every single one of Disney's Marvel characters appear on the big screen together fighting alongside each other to take down a team of baddies. If you've been invested in any of Disney's Marvel movies for the last decade, this is the moment you've been waiting for.
