Co-written/directed by Bart Layton, Crime 101 is the latest thriller from Chris Hemsworth, Halle Berry, Mark Ruffalo and Barry Keoghan.

In Layton’s story, an insurance broker (Berry) and an elusive thief team up for a multi-million dollar heist, with a relentless detective on their tail. Who wins? That is the question.

Could this be the good heist movie I’ve been dreaming of? It certainly looks stylish and sexy enough, and the cast is great. The story and execution just have to deliver, and looking at Layton’s filmography, there’s hope, boys and girls. There is much hope.

I feel like I don’t even have to ask, but you’re going to watch this, aren’t you?

Monica Barbaro, Corey Hawkins, Nick Nolte, Babak Tafti, Peter Banifaz, Patrick Mulvey, Tate Donovan, Crosby Fitzgerald, Hossein Mardani, Payman Maadi and Deborah Hedwall also star.

Crime 101 Release Dates: February 13th, 2026 (US & UK)…

It’s time for the next trailer instalment for fantasy/sci-fi/adventure/comedy, Mickey 17.

Starring Robert Pattinson, Naomi Ackie, Toni Collette, Mark Ruffalo and Steven Yeun, Mickey 17 is written/directed by Bong Joon Ho, the man behind my favourite film of the last 10 years, Parasite (2019).

I may have mentioned it in my response to the Mickey 17 teaser trailer released months ago, but, I’m into this for all the obvious reasons, but certainly also to see all the shots that show us the wonderfully humorous appearance of Mark Ruffalo’s character.

I don’t think I even need to ask if you’ll watch this one. So, instead, I ask: When are you buying your ticket?

Toni Collette, Angus Imrie, Steve Park, Thomas Turgoose, Afolabi Alli, Patsy Ferran, Chelsea Li, Angus Imrie and Daniel Henshall also star.

Mickey 17 Release Dates: March 7th, 2025 (US & UK)…

MICKEY 17 (2025): New Trailer From Robert Pattinson, Steven Yeun, Naomi Ackie, Mark Ruffalo…

Today is a reason to be excited because the writer/director of the film (Parasite (2019) that is my answer to the question ‘What is your favourite movie of the last ten years.’ has a great-looking new film.

The director is of course, Bong Joon Ho, and the movie is Mickey 17. A fantasy/sci-fi/adventure/comedy about a man known as an ‘expendable’ who goes on a treacherous journey to colonize an ice planet.

Robert Pattinson, Naomi Ackie, Steven Yeun and Mark Ruffalo are among the key cast.

So many thoughts entered my head as I watched this trailer.

  1. Firstly, it’s delightfully unexpected, so, thank you, movie gods!
  2. I love how much humour comes through; I’m ready for all the layers.
  3. What an intriguing voice Pattinson has adopted here. I like it.
  4. It appears that Ruffalo is playing what is perhaps his most fun-to-watch but fully despicable character. Surely, no one with good intentions and a kind heart has a face that ‘rests’/contorts like that.
  5. Last but not least. how will I feel about death after I finish watching this movie? I wonder.

As a big fan of Parasite (2019), I can’t help but feel happy for all the actors who got to work with Bong Joon Ho in this movie. Especially, since you can just imagine how many would have loved the gig after watching Parasite.

In this moment, it somehow feels right to say, ‘Freedom for Mickey!‘ And, just like Straight Outta Compton (2015), Mickey 17 looks like a film that will highlight the point of why it’s always super important to read contracts in full.

Toni Collette, Angus Imrie, Steve Park, Thomas Turgoose, Afolabi Alli, Patsy Ferran, Chelsea Li, Angus Imrie and Daniel Henshall also star.

I Know This Much Is True is a new HBO drama, a seven-part series about Dominick Birdsey (Mark Ruffalo). Birdsey is a middle-aged man recounting his troubled relationship with Thomas, his paranoid schizophrenic twin brother. Particularly, his efforts to get him released from an asylum.

Based on the bestselling novel by  Wally Lamb, additional key cast includes Kathryn Hahn , Melissa Leo and Juliette Lewis.

When an actor does a great job of playing more than one character in a movie, especially where both characters have to interact with each other and often, it’s one of those tests that really affirms their talents.

Like most, I’m already aware of Ruffalo’s abilities; as such, I’ll be watching for his performance, even though I know I’ll be shedding a few more tears than I’d prefer.

Rosie O’Donnell, Archie Panjabi, Imogen Poots, John Procaccino, Tom Stratford, Michael Greyeyes, Donnie Masihi, Rocco Masihi, Simone Coppo and Simone Coppo also star.

I Know This Much Is True Release Dates: May 10th, 2020 (US)…

In new biography/drama Dark Waters, Mark Ruffalo is a corporate defence attorney who takes on a chemical company with a lengthy history of environmental pollution.

Additional key cast includes Anne Hathaway, William Jackson Harper, Bill Pullman…

As a Ruffalo fan, his role in Spotlight (2015), where his character fought tirelessly for abuse victims, came to mind almost immediately as this trailer played. Then followed Julia Roberts’s great work in Erin Brockovich (2000).

I’m ready to discover any additional similarities and/or differences between the three, and to learn more about the DuPont chemical leaks.

Tim Robbins, Victor Garber, Mare Winningham, Bill Camp, Louisa Krause, Kevin Crowley, Daniel R. Hill, Lisa DeRoberts, Denise Dal Vera, Chaney Morrow and Marc Hockl also star.

Dark Waters Release Dates: November 22nd, 2019 (US); January 24th, 2019 (US)…
