description: The latest film from Barbarian director Zach Cregger has now arrived in UK cinemas.
encoded: "This is a true story that happened right here in my town two years ago." These are the first lines of Zach Cregger's highly acclaimed new horror film Weapons – which has now arrived in UK cinemas on the back of a wave of hype. The lines are narrated by a young girl, who goes on to introduce a puzzling and disturbing case in which 17 children at her school – all from the same third grade class – had mysteriously and inexplicably run away from their homes at precisely 2:17 one night. It's probably not too much of a spoiler to suggest that some of the events that follow cast doubt on those lines of opening narration, given the film goes to some pretty far-fetched places. Weapons unfolds from the perspectives of six different locals in the town, following their overlapping stories as they deal with the disappearance and try to get to the bottom of it – with Josh Brolin, Julia Garner and Alden Ehrenreich among those to play major roles. Benedict Wong, Austin Abrams, Cary Christopher and Amy Madigan round out the cast. So, is Weapons based on a real event? Does the case remain a mystery? Continue reading for more. Is Weapons based on a true story? No – it is not based on a true story, although Cregger has used real stories as inspiration. In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, Cregger addressed this openly, explaining that although the film is not based on a specific situation it was inspired by very real pain. "I had a tragedy in my life that was really, really tough," he said. "Someone very, very, very close to me died suddenly and, honestly, I was so grief-stricken that I just started writing Weapons, not out of any ambition, but just as a way to reckon with my own emotions."

In a separate interview with GQ he added: "The movie’s about that overwhelming emotion you get when you lose…

description: The Oppenheimer director's next film is in production – and it's a big one!
encoded: We're now just over a year out from the release of Christopher Nolan's next film, and fans are on tenterhooks to see what the director has cooked up for this follow-up to Oppenheimer, for which he won the Best Director Oscar. Nolan's new film is an adaptation of The Odyssey, which will star Matt Damon as Odysseus, alongside an incredibly starry ensemble cast. Tom Holland, Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, Anne Hathaway, Charlize Theron, Jon Bernthal, Elliot Page, Himesh Patel and Mia Goth are all set for roles, and that really is just scratching the surface. While updates regarding the film's progress have been limited up till now, Universal Pictures’ president of domestic theatrical distribution, Jim Orr, did recently praise Nolan's "visionary take" on the story of The Odyssey during the studio's presentation at Cinemacon. While also noting the movie's "staggering all-star cast", Orr added: "We know this film will be a once-in-a-generation cinematic masterpiece that Homer himself would be very proud of." The movie was first officially confirmed on 23rd December 2024, with it being described as a "mythic action epic shot around the world using brand new IMAX film technology". So, when can fans expect to see it? And what exactly is the film about? Read on for everything you need to know. The Odyssey release date Universal revealed in their announcement that the film is set to arrive on Friday 17th July 2026 — and it was recently confirmed that the UK would be matching the US release date. As of now, fans still have about a year and a half to wait, with production having began in spring 2025. View oEmbed on the source website Of course, it's no surprise that the film will arrive at the height of summer, with that time of year having long been favoured by Nolan, even when it came to the release of Tenet at the height of the pandemic. Oppenheimer also arrived in mid-July – famously on the same day as Barbie – and no film fan will need a reminder of how successful that film pro…

description: Here's how to catch up on all the films ahead of the fifth entry in the slasher franchise.
encoded: It's the summer slasher event of the year, and there's no better time to dive into one of the defining teen horror franchises of the late '90s: I Know What You Did Last Summer. From the original 1997 hit to its upcoming 2025 legacy sequel, the franchise has carved out (with the Fisherman's hook) a lasting legacy with masked killers, seaside secrets, and plenty of blood-soaked twists. Along the way, it’s spawned three films, a streaming reboot, and now a hotly anticipated return that reunites Jennifer Love Hewitt and Freddie Prinze Jr on the big screen, while introducing a new generation of teens grappling with the deadly consequences of one very bad decision. Whether you're starting for the first time or need a refresher, here’s how to watch the full I Know What You Did Last Summer saga from the beginning. I Know What You Did Last Summer movies in order 1. I Know What You Did Last Summer (1997) View Green Video on the source website Released: 1997 The Jim Gillespie-directed film that launched the franchise: I Know What You Did Last Summer follows four teens who accidentally hit a man with their car and vow to keep it a secret. A year later, they find themselves stalked by a hook-wielding killer who seems to know exactly what they did. With a then-fresh-faced cast including Jennifer Love Hewitt, Freddie Prinze Jr, Sarah Michelle Gellar and Ryan Phillippe, the film became an iconic teen slasher hit that helped define late '90s horror. Where to watch: Available to buy or rent via Amazon Prime Video and Apple TV. 2. I Still Know What You Did Last Summer Released: 1998 Directed by Danny Cannon, the sequel picks up with Julie James (Hewitt) still haunted by the events of the previous summer.

encoded: In Hollywood’s endless runway of sequels and reboots, The Devil Wears Prada has strutted its way back onto the scene, proving that some films never go out of fashion. The original 2006 comedy-drama, based on Lauren Weisberger’s 2003 novel, starred Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway and Emily Blunt. It followed the ambitious Andrea (Hathaway) as she stepped into the high-stakes, high-fashion world under the icy glare of magazine queen Miranda Priestly (Streep) – which earned her an Oscar nomination. With filming now underway, the long-awaited sequel to The Devil Wears Prada is finally coming to life – with Streep, Hathaway, Blunt and Stanley Tucci reprising their roles in the cast, alongside a recently confirmed line-up of newcomers. Behind the camera, David Frankel, who directed the original is also back at the helm, alongside screenwriter Aline Brosh McKenna who penned the original. So after nearly two decades, the fashion-forward follow-up is officially on the move. Read on for everything you need to know about the upcoming sequel.

The Devil Wears Prada 2 release date While it’s still early days, the sequel is already scheduled for release on Friday 1st May 2026 in the UK. That was the date which was originally earmarked for Avengers: Doomsday – which has now moved to December of that year – meaning that the sequel will be arriving almost exactly 20 years after the first, which was released back in June 2006.

description: Take a look at the top 10 highest-grossing actors of all time.
encoded: Scarlett Johansson has officially eclipsed Samuel L Jackson to become the highest-grossing film actor of all time. Helping to push total global ticket sales to nearly $15 billion, Johansson's latest movie, Jurassic World Rebirth, has seen her supersede Jackson's long-held lead. Johansson is most known for her iconic role as Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but she has also appeared in a huge range of other films spanning both blockbusters and arthouse fare. This combination of franchise power and genre versatility has made her a generation-defining star. In addition to Johansson and Jackson, the list of the top 10 highest-grossing actors includes a whole host of household names, almost all of whom have appeared in the MCU at one point in time. Here’s a look at the top 10 highest-grossing Hollywood actors, based on lifetime global box office revenue. 1. Scarlett Johansson Scarlett Johansson has officially become the highest-grossing actor in cinema ever, a status cemented by the recent success of Jurassic World Rebirth. Johansson, who is already a staple in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Black Widow, has also achieved success in other genres, including standout performances in Under the Skin, Her, JoJo Rabbit and Marriage Story. Her ability to anchor billion-dollar blockbusters while also producing nuanced, award-nominated performances distinguishes her in a business that rarely recognises both. With fewer than 40 credited films, her average box office earnings are nothing short of incredible. Johansson's rise to prominence is more than just a franchise win; it demonstrates that a female star can dominate global cinema without sacrificing quality.

encoded: A decade after Jurassic World restarted the classic dinosaur saga in 2015, originally set by Steven Spielberg in 1993, the franchise is taking a daring new turn with Jurassic World Rebirth, a character-driven survival thriller that resets the dino-dominated universe for a new generation. Directed by Rogue One's Gareth Edwards, and written by David Koepp, Rebirth marks a standalone sequel to Jurassic World Dominion (2022), the fourth Jurassic World film and seventh in the overall Jurassic Park series. Rebirth, which takes place five years after Dominion's events, invites new people and new perils to the sci-fi adventure, alongside some nostalgic connections to the first trilogy. Scarlett Johansson leads the new cast, playing a tough ops leader on a risky mission in her first Jurassic film. The film trades theme parks and tourist attractions for an isolated, storm-battered island where survival instincts and spectacle go side-by-side. But who else stars in the upcoming adventure film?

description: Here's how to watch all the movies from the dinosaur franchise in order.
encoded: More than 30 years after Steven Spielberg changed sci-fi adventure forever with rampaging raptors and a T-Rex that shook the screen, the franchise is once again evolving. When Jurassic Park was released in 1993, it did more than just set a new standard for visual effects; it also ushered in a new era of blockbuster storytelling. With its combination of cutting-edge technology and Spielberg's trademark sense of wonder, the picture became an instant hit. Unsurprisingly, it remains his highest-grossing effort, surpassing E.T., Jaws, and Raiders of the Lost Ark. Originally only intended as a stand-alone adaptation of Michael Crichton's novel, the movie sparked a deluge of merchandise, video games, exhibitions and real-life theme park rides at Universal Studios. With the upcoming seventh instalment Jurassic World: Rebirth soon joining the dinosaur series, it promises a darker, more realistic return to the primal dread and ethical questions that made the original a classic. Ahead of its release, here's a complete watch list to bring you up to date with the prehistoric action. How to watch the Jurassic Park movies in order Jurassic Park (1993) When released in 1993, Jurassic Park became the highest-grossing film of all time, surpassing Steven Spielberg’s own ET in the process. Inspired by groundbreaking special effects and immaculate dinosaur animatronics as well as Spielberg’s typically impeccable direction, Jurassic Park became the rare blockbuster to receive widespread critical acclaim and has since become one of the most loved films ever made. Starring Sam Neill and Laura Dern as a couple of palaeontologists and Jeff Goldblum as chaos theorist Dr Ian Malcolm, the trio become trapped in Jurassic Park after industrial sabotage wrecks the security precautions freeing regenerated dinosaurs. The original and the best. The Lost World: Jurassic Park (1997) After author Michael Crichton wrote a sequel to his book – somewhat at the urging of Spielberg – the great director wante…

description: The 2002 film has seen a streaming resurgence after the third entry crept into cinemas.
encoded: As 28 Years Later continues its successful box office run, interest in the original 28 Days Later has skyrocketed – in part thanks to its presence on BBC iPlayer. More than two decades after its premiere in 2002, the film is attracting a new generation of fans, and one thing that has got their attention is John Murphy's eerie music, notably the now-iconic piece In the House - In a Heartbeat. Part of the film's newfound popularity stems from increased accessibility. After years of limited access, 28 Days Later was reissued on major digital platforms in late 2024. Sony's decision to reprint it digitally alongside the release of 28 Years Later meant that both core fans and newbies could revisit the franchise. Meanwhile, alongside the success of the soundtrack to Brad Pitt's recently released sports drama F1, The Guardian noted that "original film scores are enjoying a surprising resurgence", which is being fuelled by both digital streaming and vinyl reissues. In the case of 28 Years Later, the score serves as an amplifier, reminding audiences that a truly memorable score never fades. For fans old and new, the sound of the apocalypse has never been more alive. 28 Days Later is a post-apocalyptic horror film set in London, where the mystery 'Rage virus' spreads quickly, transforming humans into vicious zombies. 28 Years Later continues the saga decades after the initial outbreak. The film explores a world still haunted by the virus’s legacy, with new characters facing fresh threats in a changed, but still dangerous, landscape. Read on for the full soundtrack. 28 Days Later soundtrack - full list Here's the 2002 film's original track list: The Beginning (John Murphy) Rage (John Murphy) The Church (John Murphy) Jim’s Parents – Abide With Me (Traditional, arranged by John Murphy) Then There Were 2 (John Murphy) Tower Block (John Murphy) Taxi – Ave Maria (Franz Schubert, arranged) The Tunnel (John Murphy) A.M. 180 (Grandaddy) An Ending (Ascent) (Brian Eno) No More Films (Joh…
