THE FURTHER MIS-ADVENTURES OF CLIFF BOOTH (2026): New Trailer Starring Brad Pitt, Elizabeth Debicki, Timothy Olyphant…

14 Comments

Quentin Tarantino has written a new movie based on Cliff Booth, a.k.a, Brad Pitt’s much-loved character in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2029).

Starring Pitt, Timothy Olyphant and Elizabeth Debicki, the focus of director David Fincher’s film, The Further Mis-Adventures of Cliff Booth is Booth’s backstory in his new role as a Hollywood fixer.

I’m surprised to find myself less enthused by this than anticipated. I might even be less enthused than I was after the first trailer which was only 11 seconds long.

Maybe Cliff Booth in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood was just the right amount for me. Fingers crossed that the next trailer will inspire more excitement because I really did enjoy Pitt’s character in Tarantino’s film.

What are your thoughts after seeing this trailer?

REMAIN (2026): New Trailer Starring Jake Gyllenhaal, Phoebe Dynevor, Tracy Ifeachor…

14 Comments

Jake Gyllenhaal, Phoebe Dynevor and Tracy Ifeachor’s latest is drama/fantasy/romance/thriller, Remain, a collaboration between M. Night Shyamalan and Nicholas Sparks.

Gyllenhaal plays a grieving man who heads to Cape Cod after leaving a psychiatric facility, only for a chance meeting to challenge his views about life and loss.

First of all, this trailer looks good. Second, Gyllenhaal’s character better get a happy ending; his depiction of pain is almost too real to keep looking at. Third, I’m apprehensive about getting too excited by M. Night Shyamalan trailers. However, Gyllenhaal’s and Sparks’s involvement give me much to stay hopeful about. So I will watch, and I will hope.

Before reading the synopsis, I knew right away that one of the characters had ceased to exist, in the traditional sense. May the story be worth it and the happenings not too traumatising.

I have a feeling you won’t be able to resist watching this either. Admit it at once!

Ashley Walters, Caleb Ruminer, Maria Dizzia, Hannah James, Julie Hagerty, Jay O. Sanders, Ashley Walters, Caleb Ruminer, Maria Dizzia, Hannah James, Julie Hagerty and Jay O. Sanders, also star.

UNABOMBER (2026): New Trailer From Annabelle Wallis, Shailene Woodley, Russell Crowe, Jacob Tremblay…

9 Comments

Unabomber is director Janus Metz’s biography /crime/drama/thriller about Ted Kaczynski, the Harvard University student who became the Unabomber.

Starring Shailene Woodley, Russell Crowe, Jacob Tremblay and Annabelle Wallis, Woodley is the FBI agent whose pursuit of Ted years later reveals how his past shaped his deadly campaign between 1978 and 1995.

As someone who’s only ever heard the word ‘unabomber’ without knowing any details, I had to look up the origins of the term, which is that Ted Kaczynski’s first targets for his bombs were a UNiversity and an Airline, hence the code name provided by the FBI.

This is clearly a dark story, so I’m not especially excited to see it, even with all the great talent involved. However, Woodley’s character does have my attention. I’m not opposed to watching her work it all out and eventually outsmart him.

Are you curious about this one too?

PAPER TIGER (2026): New Trailer From Adam Driver, Scarlett Johansson, Miles Teller…

Writer/director James Grey’s latest is Paper Tiger, a new crime/drama/thriller starring Adam Driver, Scarlett Johansson and Miles Teller.

Teller and Driver are brothers whose bond is tested when they’re caught up in a dangerous Russian mafia scheme while pursuing the American Dream.

Gritty feels like the right word for this one. Films like The Godfather (1972–1990) trilogy and The Drop (2014) came to mind as this trailer played.

I’m into the performances more than witnessing the trauma-inducing shenanigans the characters will inevitably endure.

I certainly have no idea how much screen time they’ll share, but it’s great to see Johansson and Driver in a film together again. Their first collaboration, of course, was the rather impressive Marriage Story (2020).

Has Paper Tiger drawn you in, too?

Roman Engel, Yves Garvy, Gavin Goudey, Cindy Katz, Victor Ptak, Raphael Corkhill, Joel Marsh Garland, Rosslyn Luke and Meredith Holzman also star.

Paper Tiger Release Dates: November 20th, 2026 (US)…

LAST SEEN (2026): New Trailer Starring Patrick Brammall, Maxine Peake, Brendan Cowell, Daniel Henshall,…

4 Comments

A father whose daughter disappeared years ago receives a call while working as a police dispatcher. The kind of call that sets him off on a relentless quest to find her.

Directed by Christian Schwochow, Patrick Brammall, Maxine Peake, Daniel Henshall and Brendan Cowell are among the key cast.

Hello, nightmare!

My reason for watching is that I need to see such a story end well, so that I can get the same relief and satisfaction I felt from the way Taken (2008) ended. Sometimes we need movies to give us a happy ending. Especially during the times when it feels as though reality keeps letting us down.

I’m also looking forward to some good performances, especially considering Peake’s involvement.
