One thing that I believe is a high priority for Universal is the fourth Despicable Me movie. It's already confirmed to be in development, and there's still no release date for it! I say announce that it's coming out in 2021 or so.
On an Illumination-related note, I bet we'll hear something about their Super Mario movie. That would be incredible! Maybe they'll extend their slate to 2025 or so with a bunch of untitled films! Who knows?
I would also like to see DreamWorks' slate get a little expansion to match Illumination's schedule. Perhaps they could say a little something about Shrek 5. Other than that, I do think it's possible that Scarface could be put back on as their event movie on August 16, 2019.
What say you?
(UPDATE: 4/20/2018; 8:57 AM)
Universal just added a movie titled The Hunt to their schedule for September 27, 2019. I predict we'll hear about the cast, or not. Also, Everest is definitely moving since it currently falls on the same date.
