The Mummy (June 9)


Tom Cruise headlines a spectacular, all-new cinematic version of the legend that has fascinated cultures all over the world since the dawn of civilization: The Mummy.

Thought safely entombed in a crypt deep beneath the unforgiving desert, an ancient queen (Sofia Boutella of Kingsman: The Secret Service and Star Trek Beyond) whose destiny was unjustly taken from her is awakened in our current day, bringing with her malevolence grown over millennia and terrors that defy human comprehension.

From the sweeping sands of the Middle East through hidden labyrinths under modern-day London, The Mummy brings a surprising intensity and balance of wonder and thrills in an imaginative new take that ushers in a new world of gods and monsters.

Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales (May 26)


Thrust into an all-new adventure, a down-on-his-luck Captain Jack Sparrow finds the winds of ill-fortune blowing even more strongly when deadly ghost pirates led by his old nemesis, the terrifying Captain Salazar (Bardem), escape from the Devil’s Triangle, determined to kill every pirate at sea…including him. Captain Jack’s only hope of survival lies in seeking out the legendary Trident of Poseidon, a powerful artifact that bestows upon its possessor total control over the seas.

Alien: Covenant (May 19)


Ridley Scott returns to the universe he created, with ALIEN: COVENANT, a new chapter in his groundbreaking ALIEN franchise. The crew of the colony ship Covenant, bound for a remote planet on the far side of the galaxy, discovers what they think is an uncharted paradise, but is actually a dark, dangerous world. When they uncover a threat beyond their imagination, they must attempt a harrowing escape.

The Dark Tower (August 4)


Jake Chambers (Tom Taylor) is a young 11-year-old adventure seeker who discovers clues about another dimension called Mid-World. Upon following the mystery, he is spirited away to Mid-World where he encounters the lone frontiersman knight Roland Deschain (Idris Elba) who is on a quest to reach the "Dark Tower" that resides in End-World and reach the nexus point between time and space that he hopes will save Mid-World from extinction. But with various monsters and a vicious sorcerer named Walter Padick (Matthew McConaughey) hot on their trail, the unlikely duo find that their quest may be difficult to complete.

Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets (July 21)


Valerian (Dane DeHaan) and Laureline (Cara Delevingne) are special operatives for the government of the human territories charged with maintaining order throughout the universe. Valerian has more in mind than a professional relationship with his partner- blatantly chasing after her with propositions of romance. But his extensive history with women, and her traditional values, drive Laureline to continuously rebuff him.

Under directive from their Commander (Clive Owen), Valerian and Laureline embark on a mission to the breathtaking intergalactic city of Alpha, an ever-expanding metropolis comprised of thousands of different species from all four corners of the universe. Alpha’s seventeen million inhabitants have converged over time- uniting their talents, technology and resources for the betterment of all. Unfortunately, not everyone on Alpha shares in these same objectives; in fact, unseen forces are at work, placing our race in great danger.

Atomic Blonde (July 28)




Oscar® winner Charlize Theron explodes into summer in Atomic Blonde, a breakneck action-thriller that follows MI6’s most lethal assassin through a ticking time bomb of a city simmering with revolution and double-crossing hives of traitors.

The crown jewel of Her Majesty’s Secret Intelligence Service, Agent Lorraine Broughton (Theron) is equal parts spycraft, sensuality and savagery, willing to deploy any of her skills to stay alive on her impossible mission. Sent alone into Berlin to deliver a priceless dossier out of the destabilized city, she partners with embedded station chief David Percival (James McAvoy) to navigate her way through the deadliest game of spies.

Cars 3 (June 16)


Blindsided by a new generation of blazing-fast racers, the legendary Lightning McQueen (voice of Owen Wilson) is suddenly pushed out of the sport he loves. To get back in the game, he will need the help of an eager young race technician with her own plan to win, inspiration from the late Fabulous Hudson Hornet, and a few unexpected turns. Proving that #95 isn't through yet will test the heart of a champion on Piston Cup Racing’s biggest stage!

Despicable Me 3 (June 30)


The team who brought you Despicable Me and the biggest animated hits of 2013 and 2015, Despicable Me 2 and Minions, returns to continue the adventures of Gru, Lucy, their adorable daughters—Margo, Edith and Agnes—and the Minions. Gru's long lost twin emerges and he has to deal with a sibling rivalry.

Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie (June 2)


Based on the worldwide sensation and bestselling book series, and boasting an A-list cast of comedy superstars headed by Kevin Hart and Ed Helms, DreamWorks Animation brings audiences the long-awaited global movie event, Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie. This raucously subversive comedy for the entire family tells the story of two overly imaginative pranksters named George and Harold, who hypnotize their principal into thinking he’s a ridiculously enthusiastic, incredibly dimwitted superhero named Captain Underpants.

King Arthur: Legend of the Sword (May 12)

 
Acclaimed filmmaker Guy Ritchie brings his dynamic style to the epic fantasy action adventure “King Arthur: Legend of the Sword.” Starring Charlie Hunnam in the title role, the film is an iconoclastic take on the classic Excalibur myth, tracing Arthur’s journey from the streets to the throne.

When the child Arthur’s father is murdered, Vortigern (Jude Law), Arthur’s uncle, seizes the crown. Robbed of his birthright and with no idea who he truly is, Arthur comes up the hard way in the back alleys of the city. But once he pulls the sword from the stone, his life is turned upside down and he is forced to acknowledge his true legacy…whether he likes it or not.

@BigDriggs -

I don't understand whats happening with it, with that cast, we should have seen something

BigDriggs - 4/28/2017, 1:23 PM
@SimplyAz - exactly my thoughts man. They should be marketing the shit it off this movie. Huge franchise potential.

@SimplyAz - yeah I agree this is becoming worrisome.

None of them look that good to me just judging by the pictures.

I don't know much about Dark Tower books and I'm too lazy to do research but something about the whole project intrigues me.
BigDriggs
BigDriggs - 4/28/2017, 1:18 PM
@Highflyer - the books are great. I'm about halfway through rereading the entire series. It's been maybe 5 years since I've actually sat down and finished the whole saga, and it's still as great as the first time around. The movie does not seem to be following the books at all ( and for reasons I don't want to give spoilers for). Despite the changes, I'm excited for the movie but wondering why we haven't seen much from it yet.

@BigDriggs -

I read that it's a sequel to the books.
I did try reading it but just could not get into it, shame as I have enjoyed some Stephen King books, absolutely loved 11/22/63.
BigDriggs
BigDriggs - 4/28/2017, 1:45 PM
@SimplyAz - yeah it's a sequel to the books. 11/22/63 was a great book! Pretty good mini series too

Are they ever going to release a Dark Tower trailer? It kind of ticks me off because Sony seems to be setting this movie up to fail with it's little to no marketing. Come to think of it I don't think Sony markets any of their movies well.
BigDriggs
BigDriggs - 4/28/2017, 1:19 PM
@BreakTheCode - yeah they are dropping the ball with the dark tower. It has so much potential to be a huge franchise, too.
RancidBane
RancidBane - 4/28/2017, 1:25 PM
Hey Dark Tower producers. You are shooting yourself in the foot with not marketing this movie. Your release date is just around the corner and all the audience has to go on are some pictures. Come on!
