RESIDENT EVIL (2026): New Trailer Starring Austin Abrams, Paul Walter Hauser, Kali Reis…

Resident Evil, the latest action/horror/sci-fi film from Weapons (2025) director Zach Cregger, has Austin Abrams as a courier tasked with delivering a package to a remote hospital.

While in the midst, he finds himself in an outbreak, and so begins the fight through hordes of mutated creatures to survive.

I’ve been a fan of Abrams ever since Brad’s Status (2017), and he most recently stood out in Wolfs (2004). This, and how good the above trailer looks, could just be strong enough reasons to overpower my tendency to avoid 99.99% of horror films.

What I’m curious about is whether this trailer has fans of the Resident Evil games excited or apprehensive. After all, it does look quite different from the Mila Jovovich era.

Zach Cherry and Johnno Wilson also star.

Resident Evil Release Dates: September 18th, 2026 (US & UK)…

CLAYFACE (2026): New Trailer Starring Tom Rhys Harries, Naomi Ackie, Max Minghella…

Directed by James Watkins, Clayface is a new sci-fi/horror/thriller about an actor who becomes a revenge-filled being after his identity and humanity are stripped.

The actor in question, Matt Hagen, is played by Tom Rhys Harries. Additional key cast includes Max Minghella, Naomi Ackie and Eddie Marsan.

What cruelty is this?

As you likely already know, the chances of me watching this aren’t great, but the special effects and make-up, as horrifying as they are, are so damn creative, no? Also, the premise is strong, for what is an actor without their face after all? Not nothing of course, but it’s certainly very far from an ideal situation.

The very least I will do is check out the official non-teaser trailer.

Are you as intrigued by this as I am? Proabbly more so if you really like horror.

David Dencik, Francesca Corney, Ruby Sear, Wil Coban, Joshua James, Jake Curran, Derek Siow and Lorraine Tai also star.

Clayface Release Dates: September 11th, 2026 (UK); October 23rd, 2026 (US)…

THE DOG STARS (2026): New Trailer From Ridley Scott, Starring Jacob Elordi, Josh Brolin, Margaret Qualley…

Based on Peter Heller’s bestselling novel of the same name, post-apocalyptic sci-fi /action/adventure The Dog Stars is the latest from Jacob Elordi, Josh Brolin and Margaret Qualley.

Directed by Ridley Scott, and set in a world where humanity has been wiped out by a virus, survivors are confronted with new challenges, including roaming scavengers.

I like how the trailer ramps up towards the end.

How will this differ from other post-apocalyptic stories? That’s what I’m curious about. The performances will be great. I’m just not sure that I’ll hurry to see it, considering the state of world affairs in 2026, and my sensitive disposition.

Are you familiar with Heller’s novel? How much does this film adaptation appeal to you?

Guy Pearce, Allison Janney, Benedict Wong, Sebastian Rokison-Woodall, and Alara-Star Khan also star.

The Dog Stars Release Dates: August 28th, 2026 (US & UK)…

THE END OF OAK STREET (2026): New Trailer Starring Anne Hathaway, Ewan McGregor, Maisy Stella, Christian Convery…

Produced by Star Wars director J.J. Abrams, and directed by David Robert Mitchell, The End of Oak Street is a new sci-fi/mystery/adventure starring Anne Hathaway, Christian Convery, Ewan McGregor and Maisy Stella.

The story follows a family of four as they navigate their new surroundings after a cosmic event transports their suburban neighbourhood to someplace unknown.

A thing of nightmares? My nightmares? Yes. Specifically, the nightmare in which I learn that humans suddenly have to share planet Earth with dinosaurs. And not dinosaur descendants, the birds, but actual dinosaurs.

It hasn’t been confirmed that that’s the nature of what’s happened in this trailer, but it sure does look like it. I’m also getting A Quiet Place (2018) vibes, which I’m not mad about.

Since this is a sci-fi/mystery/thriller/adventure and not a horror film, I should be able to watch it.

Maisy Stella, Chris Coy, P.J. Byrne, Bethany Anne Lind, Bethany Anne Lind, Emily Kuroda, Andrea Frankle, Hudson Meek, Pilot Bunch, Denitra Isler, Jordan Alexa Davis and Savanna Renee also star.

The End of Oak Street Release Dates: August 14th, 2026, (US & UK)…

Tom Holland, Zendaya, Mark Ruffalo and Jon Bernthal are back for Spider-Man – A Brand New Day, the fourth instalment starring Holland.

Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, a new threat that endangers Peter Parker’s loved ones means that he must break his promise to leave Spider-Man behind. and focus on college.

I’ve always known that Holland can move. Somehow, I don’t think I ever properly noticed just how well he does it, until this trailer. How wonderful it must be to master one’s body to such a degree. It’s no surprise that the man is Spider-Man.

Love the shot from inside the suit from 21 seconds into this trailer. Plus, it’s always great to see Ruffalo. The Bruce Banner/Peter Parker partnership should be fun.

Sadie Sink, Jacob Batalon, Tramell Tillman, Michael Mando Jamaal Burcher, Ian Chance, Liza Colón-Zayas and Marvin Jones III also star.

Spider-Man – Brand New Day Release Dates: July 31st, 2026 (US & UK)…
