In 2014, The Lego Movie won the hearts of people around the world. The animated comedy adventure with the popular 'Legis' made young and old laugh. Now it's getting a spin-off of sorts, The Lego Batman Movie, which has already gotten its first trailer. Until now, children have been able to play with a series of Batman-themed Lego blocks, but now the characters will come to life on the big screen. Judging by the trailer, The Lego Batman Movie is Deadpool for kids!
We all had our hopes up, but no one really expected a Trainspotting 2 movie, even though there were a lot of rumours. But now that director Danny Boyle (The Poor Millionaire), who directed the original, has released the first trailer, it seems that the dream of many movie lovers is coming true. Not only is the director returning, but so are the original cast and Ewan McGregor, Ewen Bremner, Jonny Lee Miller and Robert Carlyle. The film is said to be titled T2.
Shaved, tattooed, muscular and full of adrenaline. Extreme athlete and government agent Xander Cage is back as triple X in xXx: Return of Xander Cage (xXx: Return of Xander Cage). The third installment is said not to be a direct sequel to the second film from 2005 and is said to be more tied to the original (2002) installment of the xXx spy-action franchise. Vin Diesel returns as the main protagonist, who has managed to squeeze another high-profile film into his busy schedule. The film was directed by DJ Caruso (I'm the fourth), and it features, among others, Miss Colombia and Barcelona soccer player Neymar, because you can never have too much beauty and soccer. The film promises action scenes the likes of which we have never witnessed in film history!
As there are Avengers in the Marvel world, there is a Justice League in the DC film universe. Studio Warner Bros. presented the first trailer at its conference in San Diego, where the international comic book convention Comic-Con is traditionally held at this time, which is expected to attract around 130,000 people this year. They also released a trailer for the film Wonder Woman, which is presented in a separate trailer.
Wonder Woman, who outshone both Batman and Superman in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, is getting her own movie. This is the next - the fourth - in the series of films from the DC universe and will follow the film Suicide Squad. Warner Bros presented it in the "nerd capital", in San Diego, at the Comic-Con international comic convention, where many film studios reveal long-awaited news, bring actors with them and shoot exclusive footage. The trailer for the movie Wonder Woman also belongs to this category, which quickly landed on the Internet as well. Be among the first to see what the comic Amazon has up her sleeve.
The studio Warner Bros., which we have recently mentioned only in connection with superhero films (Wonder Woman, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, The Unwritten Squad, Justice League), is not only betting on the DC film universe in the future. At Comic-Con, they also brought a trailer for the long-awaited movie Kong: Skull Island, a movie about the famous gorilla, which will be part of the new Godzilla-Kong franchise. So it's no surprise that the creators of 2014's Godzilla were also involved in the film, which stars Tom Hiddleston and Samuel L. Jackson, among others.
While we can see him brandishing a gun in Jason Bourne on posters and soon on the big screen, in the latest and first-ever trailer for the big-budget film The Great Wall, he brandishes a bow. The Great Wall is, of course, the almost nine thousand meter long Great Wall of China, but in the American-Chinese production film (in terms of financial terms, it is the largest film cooperation between the United States and China in history) it does not protect people from the invasions of Mongolian and Hun tribes, but rather and monsters! The giant of Chinese cinema, Zhang Yimou, wielded the director's baton over the film.
King Arthur: Legend of the Sword is a new reincarnation of King Arthur, this time in the interpretation of the British director Guy Ritchie (Murderers, Thieves and Two Packets, Spit and Squeeze, Sherlock Holmes), who managed to transfer his unique style to a fictional character from British mythological history and also a popular film character. After Sean Connery and Clive Owen, Charlie Hunnam (Ring of Fire, Sons of Anarchy) took on the role of King Arthur. Former football player David Beckham also appears in the film!
Christopher Nolan is back. The famed director, who rose to fame with films such as Origins, Interstellar, Man of Steel, The Dark Knight Trilogy, Insomnia and Memento, has provided insight into his new film Dunkirk. This time he tackled the theme of war, and let's move to the time of World War II. Dunkirk is a French city that was bombed in World War II and the scene of a major battle (Operation Dynamo).
The film franchise Resident Evil, the most successful franchise based on video games of all time, returns in the sixth installment entitled Resident Evil: The Final Chapter (Invisible Evil: The Final Chapter), in which we will be able to follow the fearless warrior Alice for the last time, who will played for the sixth time by Milla Jovovich, the queen of action movies, and who has been killing ass or, better, massacring zombies in every possible way since 2002, when the first part of this action sci-fi horror movie, based on the computer game series of the same name, was released. It is the last chapter, over which Paul WS Anderson (Death Race, Pompeii, Bloody Horizon) watched over again this time.
Dog lovers, get your tissues ready! Just as Hachiko: The Story of the Loyal Dog and Marley and Me made your eyes water, so will A Dog's Purpose, presented by Universal Pictures and Amblin Entertainment on International Dog Day (August 26). The film, based on the book of the same name by W. Bruce Cameron from 2010, was directed by Lasse Hallström, who also signed the film about Hačik with Richard Gero.
M. Night Shyamalan shut the mouths of all doubters with last year's "cracking" film The Visit (filmed using the found footage technique) and proved that he still has his former sharpness. He rose to fame with The Sixth Sense (1999), but seven years later, the failure of the horror film Undersea Girl nearly cost him his career. Fortunately, this was not the last nail in his coffin, as the former hope of American cinema is experiencing a second film spring and is slowly returning to the paths of old glory. After a promising return to his roots, he will once again prove himself to the audience in the film Split, when he will take us not only into the dark underground corridors of a mental patient, in which as many as 23 personalities are trapped, but also into the dark corners of the human mind.
