With the popularity of the Marvel Cinematic Universe dramatically waning over the past few years, Sony Pictures is taking quite the gamble by continuing to put out Spider-Man spinoff flicks without actually connecting them to any of the Spider-Man films themselves.
Though they experienced surprising success with 2018’s Venom, Sony suffered a huge L with the release of Morbius. But now they’re hoping that their latest Spider-Man spinoff, Madame Web, will avoid the same struggle reception that Jared Leto’s living vampire took at the box office in 2022. Dropping off their first trailer for the Dakota Johnson-led film, Madame Web centers around Johnson’s character (Cassandra Webb a.k.a Madame Web) who finds herself in a sticky situation as she realizes not only can she see the future, but is being hunted down by a man from her distant past (Tahar Rahim).
To make matters even more interesting, Webb unknowingly ends up assembling a team of Spider-Women who are played by Sidney Sweeny, Isabela Merced, and Emma Roberts. Knowing they have to stop Rahim from taking them out, the four get together and put on their best Spider-Women outfits and take to the streets to save the day and their own lives.
While interest in this film is lukewarm at the very best, rumors have already begun to swirl that Tobey McGuire’s Spider-Man will make some kind of cameo to connect this film to his classic Sony film franchise. Whether or not that proves to be true or if that’s even enough to get some butts in the theater remains to be seen. Probably won’t be though. Just sayin.’
Check out the trailer to Madame Web below and let us know if you’ll be checking for this when it swings into theaters sometime next year.

Kevin Hart is known for being one of the biggest comedic actors in Hollywood today, but the man has dabbled in action/comedy films for a while now and his latest project seems to fall in that very same vein.
Next year the pint-sized superstar will be starring in Netflix’s new film Lift as Cyrus Whitaker, the leader of a underground criminal syndicate who’ve been tasked by authorities to pull off the heist of the century in order to avoid facing multiple criminal charges. Rounding up his team, Whitaker (Hart) fills them in on the plan which is to lift $500 million in gold bars from an airplane while it’s 40,000 feet in the air.
One can’t even say it’s “easier said than done” as just saying it sounds impossible, but that’s the mission and failure to comply means hard time for Cyrus and his team who are known for money laundering, identity fraud and transportation of stolen property. Needless to say they’ll be rolling the dice in order to keep their freedom.
Giving off some real Fast and Furious vibes, Lift seems like it will be quite the comedic joy ride accompanied with action sequences for guys and girls who like guy movies.
Check out the trailer to Lift below and let us know if you’ll be checking for it when it hits Netflix on January 12 in the comment section below.

It’s been a hot minute since we’ve seen Ryan Gosling in a big time Hollywood film, and though rumors of him being the next Ghost Rider in the MCU hasn’t materialized (yet), the man is returning with a comedic bang in David Leitch’s The Fall Guy.
The action-comedy stars Gosling as stuntman, Colt Seavers, who’s life gets all too real when he’s tasked with finding missing action star, Tom Ryder (Aaron Taylor-Johnson), who got himself tangled up with some pretty nasty individuals. Naturally things go left and Seavers finds himself using his stuntman skills to not only fight his way through a mob of badass henchmen but also make some pretty death- defying jumps in order to save his own life.
The film also features Emily Blunt as the object of his affection and Winston Duke as his right-hand man/hype man.
Filled with action sequences, comedic lines and some heartfelt moments, this film actually looks pretty good.
Check out the trailer to The Fall Guy below, and let us know if you’ll be checking for it when it hits theaters March 1, 2024.

Though it’s rumored that studio execs over at Warner Bros. have absolutely no faith in Aquaman 2 and are said to be refraining from giving the movie a hard marketing push, the first full-length trailer actually seems like the James Wan directed epic could be an entertaining family-friendly film.
Starring Jason Momoa as the titular character, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom takes us back to the land (and sea) where Arthur Curry reigns as both king of Atlantis and head of his household as he’s now a father and husband to Mera (Amber Heard). Unfortunately for him the events of Aquaman come back to haunt him as Black Manta (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II a.k.a Candyman) is out for revenge for the beatdown he took at the hands of the sea-loving superhero in the previous film. Armed with the magical Black Trident that puts him on the same power level of Aquaman (if not more), Black Manta is hellbent on not only destroying Aquaman’s home, but killing off his loved ones as well.
Someone must’ve said Black Manta’s name five times in the reflection of body of water or something.

Left with no choice but to turn to his brother Orm (Patrick Wilson) whom he had imprisoned for going against the throne, Aquaman and his big bro must now work together to take down this new threat as James Gunn made sure the Superman and Wonder Woman he knew no longer exist in this DCEU reality. Son literally had no other options.
Filled with pretty cool CGI underwater battles and some heartwarming family moments, the trailer to Aquaman 2 paint a pretty entertaining picture of what could be Jason Mamoa’s final performance as the King of Atlantis as it’s rumored he’ll be taking on the role of Lobo in James Gunn’s rebooted DCEU.

Denzel Washington sure does love making movies where he protects innocent people with his life while dishing out fades like the point guard off your favorite team.
Reprising his role as Robert McCall in the third installment to The Equalizer, Denzel Washington intends to go out with a bang as the trailer to The Equalizer 3 promises that this will be the final chapter in the book of Bob. Set in Italy where McCall is living the quiet life he’s always dreamed of, things go left for the man in search of peace after the Sicilian mafia intrude on the small town he’s living in and make life hell for his neighbors and beloved Italian town.

Knowing it’s on him to keep the peace while breaking down the Italian mob piece by piece, McCall embarks on a one-man suicide mission which calls for him to use guns, broken bottles and a stop watch to enact vengeance on those who dare shake down and terrorize the good people of his community. Being that he’s a man who “understands violence,” McCall becomes the boogeyman to this crime syndicate and leaves behind a bloody trailer in the Antoine Fuqua directed picture.
Will Robert McCall live to finally realize his dream of spending his final years as a peaceful citizen or will have to make the ultimate sacrifice to ensure the protection of the good people of his town? We don’t know but if Dakota Fanning is involved in this film, he’s probably gonna die. Word to Man on Fire.

The last few films to the Saw franchise have been lackluster to say the least, but that isn’t keeping the good people over at Lionsgate from keeping the series going. To breathe new life into the franchise they’re going back in time with the latest installment.
Yesterday (July 30), Lions Gate released their first trailer for Saw X and in it we see the return of Tobin Bell as John Kramer a.k.a Jigsaw as the film is set around the year 2005, when Jigsaw was just beginning to make a name for himself. In the trailer we find that Kramer was duped by a team of fake doctors into thinking they’d successfully removed a cancerous tumor from his body. Once he’s told the tumor remains and his life is about to come to an end, Kramer decides a little vengeance would be a nice parting gift to himself.
After kidnapping everyone involved in the scam, Kramer subjects every last one of them to his twisted game of self-mutilation in exchange for living the rest of their lives and what followed was a bunch of blood, flesh, and screams that have become synonymous with the Saw franchise. We just hope to see someone rocking a Sidekick or Black Berry phone for nostalgia sake.
Check out the trailer to Saw X below and let us know if you’ll be checking it out when it hits theaters sometime later this year.

“Flamin’ Hot Cheetos” are arguably the most popular bag of chips out in these streets. But is that popularity enough to warrant its own origin story film? Apparently it is.
Last year it was reported that Searchlight Pictures was producing a movie centered around the creation of Frito-Lay’s most popular potato chip and today we’ve gotten the first trailer for former brand janitor Richard Montañez’s rags-to-riches story. Dubbed Flamin’ Hot (of course) the Eva Longoria-directed project takes the true life story of Richard Montañez (portrayed by Jesse Garcia) and turns it into a comedic and heartfelt film about a man who went from running the streets with his gang-banging homies to the top of the corporate world simply by turning to his Mexican heritage and applying it to the American dream.
With Frito-Lay struggling to maintain its popularity in bodegas across the board, Richard Montañez came up with the idea for a churro that was spicy but not overbearing and pitched the idea of the “Flamin Hot Cheetos” to the higher-ups at the company. The rest was history. Though he went on to be a massive success and even released a book about his million dollar baby, Flamin’ Hot: The Incredible True Story of One Man’s Rise from Janitor to Top Executive, Frito-Lay has disputed his role in the creation of the chip as they be hatin’, allegedly.
Regardless of whether or not all the facts line up, the trailer to Flamin’ Hot does seem like it will be not just a fun film for the family, but also an inspirational one for anyone out there trying to turn their life around.
Check out the trailer below and let us know if you’ll be checking for it when it hits theaters June 9.

Wait, are we going to finally get ALL the Spider-Man actors in one single film together?
No, we’re not talking about Spider-Man: No Way Home, we’re talking about Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse as the latest trailer teases some voice over work from Tobey McGuire (OG Spider-Man), Andrew Garfield (Overlooked Spider-Man), and Tom Holland (Zendaya’s Boyfriend Spider-Man). In the minds of fans it’s only right that the three live-action Spider-Men finally get familiar with the lone Black Spider-Man, Miles Morales (Shamiek Moore) even if it’s only in animated form.
In the 30-second clip to the upcoming Spider-Man: Across The Spider-Verse, we hear McGruire, Garfield and Zendaya’s man (we love ya, Tommy), speak about the hardships that come with being a Spider-Man from previous films before Moore gives his own assertion on the matter saying “Anyone can wear the mask… but how you wear it, that’s what matters.”
While Sony has been mum on the possibility of McGuire, Garfield or Holland actually do some voice over work in Across The Spider-Verse, after the Into The Spider-Verse released, the writers did say they wanted Tobey McGuire to take on the voice of OG Spider-Man (that gig went to Chris Pine), but didn’t think he’d be interested in reprising his iconic role. Then years later we got No Way Home and all of a sudden, maybe he wouldn’t be so opposed to returning to the Marvel universe even in animated form. As for Andrew Garfield, y’all know he’s itching to be Spidey in anyway he can and surely wouldn’t turn down a check these days. Tom Holland, he seems like he’d be down for it.
Guess we’ll have to wait till June 2nd to find out if any of the three or all three make guest cameos but until then check out the quick spot below and let us know if you think they’ll surprise fans with some voice over work in the comments section below.

The Transformers film franchise doesn’t have the same blockbuster power it might’ve had more than a decade ago, but director Steven Caple Jr. is hoping to change that with his latest installment, Transformers: Rise of The Beasts. The latest trailer does show a lot of promise.
Starring up and coming Latino star in the making Anthony Ramos (In The Heights), the latest trailer to Transformers: Rise of The Beasts gives us a better look at the Maximal transformers which turn into animals instead of cars, but are actually descendants of the Autobots. With a new threat coming to earth in the form of Unicron who’s capable of devouring the planet, Galactus style, the Autobots and Maximals have to figure out how to stop him with the help of a Latino kid from Brooklyn (FOH Shia LaBeouf!).

For a while now it’s been said that the sequel to Captain Marvel would be a team-up between Carol Danvers (Captain Marvel), Monica Rambeau (Photon) and Kamala Kahn (Ms. Marvel). Sure enough, the first trailer for the upcoming The Marvels confirms that the film will be a crossover event involving the three superheroes.
Picking up where the season finale to Disney+’s Ms. Marvel left off, the trailer finds Kamala Khan (Iman Vellani) switching bodies with both Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris) and Carol Danvers (Brie Larson) much to the astonishment of one, Nick Fury. Looking to make sense of how Kamala is able to pull off such a feat, Fury and Rambeau pay Khan and her family a visit which provides some comedic hijinks that’s sure to be a big part of the upcoming film.
Knowing they have to work together to save the world from the latest villain that’s threatening it, Danvers and Rambeau reluctantly form a trio with the young Khan who’s more than excited to be joining forces with her idol and newfound teammate. So far Marvel Studios has been tightlipped about the actual plot of the film and who the main villain will be. Unfortunately for fans, the trailer doesn’t provide any intel or even clues as to who the super-powered trio will be taking on.
What the trailer does showcase is that the film seems to be taking on the humorous and family-driven tone that made Ms. Marvel a fan-favorite series that got bombed by right-wing trolls who had a problem with superhero series starring a female Muslim as the titular character. Oh well.
Check out the trailer to The Marvels below and let us know if you’ll be checking for this when it hits theaters this November in the comments section below.
