The subject of Steven Spielberg’s latest sci-fi film, Disclosure Day, is what happens when several humans know with certainty, and can show you that aliens are among us.

Emily Blunt, Josh O’Connor, Colin Firth and Colman Domingo are among the key cast

Excellent is the word for this trailer. The cherry on top, for me, in addition to this stellar cast, is that Colin Firth is back!

This one is officially going on my list of blockbusters to watch over the summer of 2026. I suspect you feel the same, yes?

Chyril Paulann, Eve Hewson, Jim Parrack, Henry Lloyd-Hughes, Michael Gaston, Gabby Beans, Swanmy Sampaio, Elliot Villar, Chris Silcox, Mckenna Bridger, Noah Robbins, Tommy Martinez and Amelie McKendry also star.

Disclosure Day Release Dates: June 12th, 2026 (US)…

BEING EDDIE (2025) The Things I Liked…

Director Angus Wall’s biography/documentary about American actor and stand-up comic Eddie Murphy is the good time I hoped it would be.

Watching Being Eddie had me feeling like a guest in Murphy’s beautiful family home, as he, along with family, peers and friends, reminisced about his life and career. Not while they were all in the same room, mind you. Even though that would have been fun too, kind of like this gem. The likes of Chris Rock, Jerry Seinfeld, Pete Davidson, Jamie Foxx, and Kevin Hart featured as talking heads in different locations.

I enjoyed the look back at some of his most celebrated works. From his stint as a Saturday Night Live (SNL) cast member to his more recent projects. I appreciated hearing about the stories behind the movies and stand-up comedy specials, and about how he navigated the weight of his own superstardom.

Thankfully, just as I imagined, while learning about what makes one of my favourite comics tick, I also got to hear some fresh jokes as he talked and told stories. A naturally funny person simply can’t help but amuse.

Being Eddie is a must for fans of his work. If only to relive some of the great times you had because he was dedicated.

MOTHER MARY (2026): New Trailer From Anne Hathaway, Michaela Coel, Hunter Schafer and FKA twigs …

From writer/director David Lowery, Mother Mary is a new drama/music film about an iconic pop star who returns to her estranged costume designer. Inevitably, long-buried wounds resurface.

Anne Hathaway, Michaela Coel, Hunter Schafer and FKA twigs are among the key cast.

The trailer explicitly stating that ‘this is not a ghost story’ only makes me think that’s exactly what it is. Especially bearing in mind the visuals. I’m both curious and scared to see it. However, I’m too invested in its stars not to at least try to watch this.

Considering how emotionally taxing Hathaway’s role appears to be, I hope this movie turns out great, so it all feels extra worth it for her.

Will you be making time for this one?

Alba Baptista, Kaia Gerber, Parinas Esmailsadeh, Julia Stolba, Dani Vitale, Laura Meakin, Sian Clifford, Jessica Brown Findlay and Atheena Frizzell also star.

CALIFORNIA SCHEMIN’ (2025): New Trailer From James McAvoy, Romany Shaw, Amber Anderson…

Based on a true story, California Schemin’ is a biography/drama, and the directorial debut of Scottish actor James McAvoy.

Starring McAvoy, Romany Shaw, and Amber Anderson, the story follows two young men from Scotland who conned the music industry by pretending to be an established Californian rap duo.

Because of the inevitability of such a plan falling apart, and the huge challenge of coming back from the deception, I wonder if the idea was to make as much money as possible, before ‘gladly’ leaving it all behind. I’m thinking the answer is no. In which case, the expectation was likely that they’d get away with it, at least for a while.

Whatever the answer, I look forward to learning about the circumstances that led the young men to their decision. And of course, I’m excited for McAvoy’s directorial debut. He is one of my favourite actors after all.

Is this one going on your watch list for 2026?

James Corden, Jennifer Winn, Samuel Bottomley, Seamus McLean Ross, Tayla Kovacevic-Ebong, Sonny Poon Tip, Lucy Halliday, Rebekah Murrell, John Scougall, David Goren, Chloe Anais Hunt, Tony Bittner-Collins and Chris Dixon also star.

MERCY (2026) New Trailer From Rebecca Ferguson, Chris Pratt, Kenneth Choi, Annabelle Wallis…

A trailer has landed for Rebecca Ferguson and Chris Pratt’s latest sci-fi/crime/thriller, Mercy.

Also starring Kenneth Choi, Noah Fearnley, and Annabelle Wallis, director Timur Bekmambetov’s film has Ferguson as the AI that must decide whether Pratt’s detective character murdered his wife.

I admit it, this trailer is better than the last, and I may still be unsure about how good this will be, but I’m leaning towards giving it a try because of how it’s shot. Ultimately, I want to see if this End of Watch (2012)/ Minority Report (2002) mash-up will work.

What are your thoughts on Mercy after this second trailer?

Rafi Gavron, Chris Sullivan, Kali Reis, Kylie Rogers, Jeff Pierre, Philicia Saunders, Renata Ribeiro and Jamie McBride also star.

Mercy Release Dates: January 23rd, 2026 (US & UK)…
