Christopher Nolan is one of the most popular filmmakers of our time. His latest drama, an adaptation of Homer's "The Odyssey," with a star-studded cast led by Matt Damon as Odysseus, opens in theaters on July 17th.

On Wednesday July 1st, Amazon's Prime Video streaming service is debuting the new series "Elle". It's a prequel to the "Legally Blonde" movies, about Reese Witherspoon's character Elle Woods as a high school teen in Seattle in the '90s.

"Toy Story 5" opens June 19th. It's one of the most highly anticipated films of 2026, for movie fans and movie theaters. But it's also one of the most risky. How do you dare continue a franchise that is often considered pretty close to perfect? Wait — why does feel like deja vu?

Commentator Jackson Murphy says it'll be a big season for family films, but there will be plenty of blockbusters for adults too. He also says that, so far, theaters seem primed to have the most anticipated releases rather than streaming services.

"The Devil Wears Prada 2" arrives in theaters 20 years after the release of the original. The fashion rom-com was the 17th highest grossing film of 2006 and featured a breakthrough performance from Emily Blunt.

April 24th is the release date of the highly anticipated "Michael". Michael Jackson's nephew Jafaar Jackson plays his uncle, The King of Pop, in a drama that will chronicle his rise to stardom. “Michael” is directed by Antoine Fuqua, of “Training Day”, written by John Logan, who penned “The Aviator”, and produced by Graham King, of “The Departed” and 2018’s “Bohemian Rhapsody”.

Hollywood has always had a fascination with outer space, aliens and otherworldly explorations, from Stanley Kubrick's "2001" to "E.T" and a certain galaxy far, far away.
