BLADE RUNNER 2099 (2026): New Trailer Starring Michelle Yeoh, Hunter Schafer, Dimitri Abold…

Leave a comment

Michelle Yeoh, Hunter Schafer and Dimitri Abold are the stars of new eight-episode series, Blade Runner 2099.

The action/sci-fi/mystery/thriller takes place fifty years after the events of Blade Runner 2049.

Interesting.

I’m happy that this will likely make me rewatch Blade Runner 2049 (2017). But I have to admit that my initial reaction upon first viewing the trailer wasn’t great. However, now that I’ve accepted that this will probably never be close to as good as director Denis Villeneuve’s version, I’ll let my general curiosity lead the way.

I like Yeoh, and I’m interested in comparing the visuals here to those in the 2017 film, which I enjoyed so very much.

What thoughts has this trailer conjured up for you?

Francis Lovehall, Tom Burke, Lewis Gribben, Johnny Harris, Wil Coban, Hugo Hamlet, Hassan Najib, Juliana Yazbeck, Allan Kneefel, Andrew Van Wilpe, Xueni Yang and Jenn Kirk also star.

Blade Runner 2099 Release Dates: November 25th, 2026 (US & UK)…

VOICEMAILS FOR ISABELLE (2026): The Things I Liked…

3 Comments

One of the best decisions the filmmakers behind Voicemails for Isabelle made was opening the film with Robyn’s Dancing on My Own. The great news is that the soundtrack continues to impress throughout, as does the beautiful way the film captures the love between two sisters.

Nick Robinson, Zoey Deutch and the rest of the cast performed well in writer/director Leah McKendrick’s story about a young woman who leaves voice messages intended for her deceased sister. 

As far as romantic comedies go, Voicemails for Isabelle is a good one, even if one character’s lack of accountability did frustrate me.

If you haven’t already, watch it when you’re in the mood for a good romantic comedy.

MAYDAY (2026) New Trailer From Ryan Reynolds, Kenneth Branagh, David Morse…

9 Comments

Ryan Reynolds, Kenneth Branagh and David Morse star in Mayday, a John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein-directed action/comedy/adventure.

It’s a story about a reconnaissance mission over Soviet territory that goes wrong, leading to a fight to survive Russian wilderness while evading capture or rescue.

I didn’t see the Branagh and Reynolds pairing coming, and this mostly has me wanting to rewatch The Hitman’s Bodyguard (2017).

Right now, I want to categorise this as ‘easy viewing’; Hopefully the kind I’ll enjoy more than I did Red Notice (2021).

What’s your level of enthusiasm?

Wendy Crewson, Maria Bakalova, Louis Cancelmi, Clark Johnson, Donald Sales, Alex Mallari Jr., Marcin Dorocinski, Aleksandra Kimaeva, Sophie-Thérèse Stone-Richards and Jacob Hanlon also star.

Mayday Release Dates: September 4th, 2026 (US & UK)…

CAYOTE VS ACME (2026): New Trailer From John Cena, Lana Condor, Will Forte…

9 Comments

John Cena’s latest is Coyote vs. Acme, an animated adventure/comedy set in the warehouse of the company responsible for all the highly questionable products used by Bugs Bunny, Tweety Bird, Wile E. Coyote and the rest of the Looney Tunes gang.

Directed by Dave Green, key cast members include Lana Condor, Will Forte and P.J. Byrne.

Yeah! More Cena!

The last animation and live-action mix I saw, Tom and Jerry (2021), wasn’t great, which is why I’m making sure not to expect too much from this one.

Nevertheless, Tweety Bird, Bugs Bunny, Wile E. Coyote and Roadrunner are characters that have never failed to put a smile on my face. So, the least I can do is give this a chance at some point. After all, I do rather enjoy the silly/clever more often than not.

Are you ready for the nostalgia hit?

Zoe Buchansky, Nancy Linehan Charles, Aimee McGuire, Doug Montoya, Kelsey Leos Montoya, Bennie Taylor, Hayes Hargrove, Kristin K. Berg and Jeff Bergman also star.

Cayote VS Acme Release Dates: August 21st, 2026, (UK); August 28th, 2026 (US)…

THE GREATEST (2026): New Trailer Starring Jaalen Best, Lacey Creighton, Amin Joseph, Michael Ealy…

4 Comments

Created by Ben Watkins, The Greatest is an eight-episode series that chronicles the highs and lows of the life of Muhammad Ali.

Starring Jaalen Best, as Ali, the story explores the personal relationships behind his public persona and the moments that shaped his iconic status.

Having already seen Ali’s story depicted several times in different ways, I’m interested, not just to learn what I may not already know about the boxing hero of millions. But also to marvel at Best’s seemingly flawless casting and portrayal.

It no doubt help’s that he resembles Ali to such an extent that I wouldn’t think twice if told he were his nephew.

Anyone else notice how much this trailer is reminiscent of this magnificent one minute forty seven seconds right here?

Michael Ealy, Lacey Creighton, Amin Joseph, Jim Chad, Dave Davis, Brandon McKnight, Rico E. Anderson, Elias Leacock, Aimé Donna Kelly, Jerod Haynes, Kaya Coleman, Adrian Alvarado, Brandon Victor Dixon, Cesili Williams and Tyee Tilghman also star.

The Greatest Release Dates: November 4th, 2026 (US)…
