Trying to set values in Text Field

I have added the below code

import android.os.Bundle; import android.view.View;

public class MovieActivity extends Activity { Movie movie; @InjectView(R.id.movieTitle) TextView mTitleLabel; @InjectView(R.id.movieImage) ImageView mMovieImage;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_movie);
    ButterKnife.inject(this);
  movie = new Movie();
  movie.setImageId = 1;
  movie.setTitle = "test";
  movie.setYearReleased=2014;
    // The rest of the code is omitted for brevity :)
  updateDisplay(movie);
}

public void updateDisplay(Movie movie) {
    // Add your code here!
  mTitleLabel.setText(movie.getTitle());
}

}

Passing the movie as parameter to updateDisplay. Using the getter to get the title but it gives me an error that the setters aren't identified

MovieActivity.java 
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;

public class MovieActivity extends Activity {
    Movie movie;
    @InjectView(R.id.movieTitle) TextView mTitleLabel;
    @InjectView(R.id.movieImage) ImageView mMovieImage;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_movie);
        ButterKnife.inject(this);
      movie = new Movie();
      movie.setImageId = 1;
      movie.setTitle = "test";
      movie.setYearReleased=2014;
        // The rest of the code is omitted for brevity :)
      updateDisplay(movie);
    }

    public void updateDisplay(Movie movie) {
        // Add your code here!
      mTitleLabel.setText(movie.getTitle());
    }
}
Movie.java 
public class Movie {
    private String mTitle;
    private int mYearReleased;
    private int mImageId;

    public int getImageId() {
        return mImageId;
    }

    public void setImageId(int id) {
        mImageId = id;
    }

    public String getTitle() {
        return mTitle;
    }

    public void setTitle(String title) { 
        mTitle = title;
    }

    public int getYearReleased() {
        return mYearReleased;
    }

    public void setYearReleased(int year) {
        mYearReleased = year;
    }
}

You shouldn't add any code to the onCreate() method. Just the code that sets the text of the mTitleLabel TextView:

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;

public class MovieActivity extends Activity {

    @InjectView(R.id.movieTitle) TextView mTitleLabel;
    @InjectView(R.id.movieImage) ImageView mMovieImage;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_movie);
        ButterKnife.inject(this);

        // The rest of the code is omitted for brevity :)
    }

    public void updateDisplay(Movie movie) {
        // Add your code here!
      mTitleLabel.setText(movie.getTitle());
    }
}
