Written/directed by Noble Jones, The Tomorrow Man stars John Lithgow, Blythe Danner, Derek Cecil and Katie Aselton. It’s a drama/romance about two people trying not to get lost in each other’s stuff as they aim for love.

The challenge is that both have quite a bit of baggage. One is preparing for a disaster that may never come while the other spends their time shopping for things they may never use.

This trailer started off kind of creepy, but I’m glad to say that it now looks like one of those heart-warming affairs. In fact, I’m quite looking forward to finding out the qualities Danner’s Ronnie and Lithgow’s Ed find most endearing about each other.

Sophie Thatcher, Eve Harlow, Wendy Makkena, Tyler Aser and Liz Cameron also star.

The Tomorrow Man Release Dates: May 22nd, 2019 (US)…

Directed by Kevin Kölsch, Dennis Widmyer and based on the bestselling Stephen King Novel of the same name, Jason Clarke, John Lithgow, and Amy Seimetz are the stars of new horror/thriller Pet Sematary.

The story centres around the Creed family who move into a new rural home, and soon learn of the ‘Pet Semetary’ located close by. After their cat is killed by a truck, said cat is laid to rest in the mysterious pet cemetery. The Creeds don’t fully know it yet, but the cemetery is not quite as it seems. In fact, it soon proves to them that sometimes, dead is better.

I’ll start by saying that I already love the ‘…sometimes, dead is better‘ line. So spooky!

Having definitely not read the book, I’m drawn in by how clever this story seems to be. I’m interested in the thrills and maybe a few scares. But really, mostly the thrills, because I’m scared.

Naomi Frenette, Maria Herrera, Obssa Ahmed, Bailey Thain, Sonia Maria Chirila, Jeté Laurence and Hugo Lavoie also star.

Pet Sematary Release Dates: April 5th, 2019 (US & UK)…

DADDY’S HOME 2 (2017): New Trailer From Mark Wahlberg, Will Ferrell, Mel Gibson, John Lithgow, John Cena…

The first Daddy’s Home (2015) movie starring Mark Wahlberg, Will Ferrell and Linda Cardelilni featured a ‘cool biological dad versus new and not so cool stepdad’ dynamic between Ferrell and Wahlberg.

For the Sean Anders-directed sequel, the same dynamic remains, except this time, Ferrell and Wahlberg’s characters are the best of friends, but their dads, played by Mel Gibson and John Lithgow, are certainly not that.

The original film was okay and featured some memorable scenes. I’ll be tuning in this time for much of the same and hopefully more. I already love that kiss between Lithgow and Ferrell’s characters.

Daddy’s Home 2 Release Dates: November 10th, 2017 (US); November 22nd, 2017 (UK)…

I am a big Salma Hayek fan, and I just couldn’t be happier to see her in a role that looks as great as this one of Beatriz, in new comedy/drama Beatriz at Dinner.

Also starring Connie Britton, Chloë Sevigny, John Lithgow and Jay Duplass, Hayek’s Beatriz is a holistic medicine practitioner who attends a wealthy client’s dinner party after her car breaks down. And so begins the very thought-provoking dialogue.

Directed by Miguel Arteta, this great trailer has me very impatient because I want to take in all of writer Mike White’s words right now.

The Accountant is Ben Affleck’s new movie, and good is how the trailer looks.

I’ve seen, loved and re-watched Good Will Hunting (1997) quite a few times, so, as I watched this trailer, I couldn’t help but think, ‘and now… Affleck’s turn to play the ‘mathematical genius‘. Well, sort of.

Anna Kendrick, John Lithgow, Jon Bernthal and J.K. Simmons also star.

The Accountant Release dates: October 14th, 2016 (US); October 20th, 2016 (GER); November 4th, 2016 (UK)…
