From director and co-writer Kasi Lemmons; Harriet is a new historical drama based on the biography of iconic freedom fighter Harriet Tubman.

Starring Cynthia Erivo as Tubman; plus Janelle Monáe and Joe Alwyn, the story focuses on Tubman’s escape from slavery and the subsequent missions to free dozens of slaves through the Underground Railroad.

Based on this trailer, I can tell I’m going to appreciate the dialogue, inspiring heroism and love. I can’t wait to see Erivo deliver what looks like an award worthy performance.

Clarke Peters, Tim Guinee, Vanessa Bell Calloway, Vondie Curtis-Hall, Leslie Odom Jr., Tory Kittles, Deborah Ayorinde and Omar J. Dorsey also star.

Harriet Release Dates: November 1st 2019 (US)…

A Beautiful Day In The Neighborhood is a new Marielle Heller-directed drama/biography that focuses on iconic American TV host Fred Rogers (Tom Hanks). Particularly his friendship with journalist Tom Junod (Matthew Rhys).

Personally, I can find zero reasons for not watching this. I already adore Mr Hanks, and Mr Rogers is, according to most, if not all, who knew of him, a big ball of happiness.

Featuring real-time, groundbreaking science with cinematic stories of struggle and triumph, The Game Changers is a new documentary about some of the strongest, fastest and toughest athletes on the planet. athletes who happen to be fans of the plant based diet after realising they’d been told several untruths and outdated myths about food and protein that not only affect human performance, but the health of the entire global population.

Directed by Louie Psihoyos; James Wilks – an elite Special Forces trainer and winner of The Ultimate Fighter, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Lewis Hamilton, Novak Djokovic, and Chris Paul are among a long list of key names and athletes featured.

With a reasonable understanding of the impact of diets rich in animal protein, I’m looking forward to learning what this film has to say and the way it will say it.

I’m certainly hoping for a balanced presentation of truths.

The Game Changers Release Dates: September 16th, 2019 (US)…

Read my spoiler-free movie review of  It Chapter 2 (2019).

The latest official trailer for director Andy Muschietti’s IT Chapter 2 – starring Jessica Chastain, Bill Hader, James McAvoy and Bill Skarsgård is finally here.

The first thing I noticed with this impressive trailer is how wonderfully creepy Skarsgård looks as Pennywise. The second is the brilliant casting of most, if not all of the adult versions of the kids in the movie.

I wonder if this could be the version of IT that actually really terrifies me. I’m ready to find out. At least I think I’m ready to find out.

 Javier Botet , Sophia Lillis, Jack Dylan Grazer, Finn Wolfhard, Jaeden Martell and Troy James, also star.

IT – Chapter 2 Release Dates: September 6th, 2019 (US & UK)…

2001’s cult classic Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back has a sequel coming. This time the two friends Jay and Silent Bob are returning to Hollywood to stop a reboot of ‘Bluntman and Chronic,’ a movie about their alter egos.

Written/directed by Kevin Smith, this movie, Jay and Silent Bob Reboot, stars much of the original cast, including Smith himself, Jason Mewes, Ben Affleck, and new faces such as Chris Hemsworth, plus Matt Damon.

I don’t believe I’ve watched the original movie, but I am curious. I’m also always intrigued by films with a star-filled cast list.

Melissa Benoist, Joe Manganiello, Val Kilmer, Rosario Dawson, Grant Gustin, Justin Long, Jason Biggs, Kate Micucci and Jason Lee also star.

Jay & Silent Bob Release Dates: October 15th, 2019 (US)…
