'That guy' is Hollywood speak for a character actor.

A 'That Guy' actor is self-explanatory - he's familiar because you've seen him in several movies, but you may not know his name because he's not famous like say, Al Pacino or Johnny Depp, so you usually refer to him as 'that guy who...'

The first word that comes to mind for me as a native American English speaker is "eager." Oxford dictionaries defines eager as follows:

Eager - adjective - (Of a person) wanting to do or have something very much

the man was eager to please

young intellectuals eager for knowledge

In the example you provided I might say, "I am eager for the release of Movie X."

A few other (informal) possibilities I might use colloquially are: "jazzed," "thrilled," "itching," or "dying."

I am jazzed for the release of Videogame X next month.

I am thrilled about Christmas this year.

I am itching for my wife to get home from work.

I am dying to get out of this office and go fishing.

But the most common choice I would make to express anticipation for something is "looking forward to."

I am looking forward to a cold beer when I get home.
