  The correct way to fill in the blank would be:

  “They will go to the movies tomorrow.”

  The future tense is expressed using the modal auxiliary verb “will” followed by the base form of the main verb “go”.

  Some other examples of the future tense:

  • I will study for the exam.
  • She will visit her grandparents next week.
  • We will celebrate her birthday on Saturday.
  • You will receive the package by tomorrow.

  The use of “will” is the standard way to indicate future tense in English. Other ways to express the future include using “be going to” (e.g. “They are going to go to the movies tomorrow”) or using the simple present tense for scheduled or planned future events (e.g. “They go to the movies tomorrow”).
