I decided to look for suitable fonts and then analyse the benefits or disadvantages of each one to see which ones are most proficient to use.
Futura looks great, it is a very large font that stands out well meaning it is perfect for a poster - especially for a title. It is long and has character which I love about it. I may use this for my film poster.
This font is very similar to 'Futura' in fact. It is just less long and more chunkier. This would also look great as a title text or something that needs to be large. It is more curved and has a happier feel towards it which is not what I am wanting however. So I do not think I am going to use this.

I love these fonts. They are both very similar and I think they both have real potential for my main title. They are both bold, sleek, simple and perfect for a title. You can clearly comprehend them quickly and from a distance which is very important. I am considering these highly for a candidate for the title font.
Will&Grace would be a great font for the cast or the tagline. It is not bold enough therefore it is not what I'm looking for, for a title. However I feel like I could definitely use this elsewhere for a subordinate feature.
This font has a lot of character with pointed serifs. It is great being bold and thick which Is why I choose it but the font looks angry which is not the sort of feel I want from a font on my film poster.
In conclusion, I think 'Porter' would look great for a main title as it is so simple, bold and easy to read. All traits you need for a title. Moreover, 'Will&Grace' would be great for a subordinate font as it looks smart and professional and again easy to comprehend. It fits my genre well. I am only going to use two fonts as I do not want my film poster to be too complicated.
