15 movies we can't wait to see this summer, from Spielberg to 'Spider-Man'
The upcoming blockbuster season features sequels, reboots, remakes, action, romance, and animated comedy. Multiple LGBTQ+ films are scheduled within a short period. A horror parody installment returns with a new series entry and material to mock recent horror and thriller hits. A Spielberg-linked alien-themed story centers on a cybersecurity expert who uncovers a decades-long coverup and reveals off-worlders are already among people. A darker Robin Hood follows a critically injured Robin grappling with the consequences of his criminal life. Toy Story 5 pits beloved toys against a tablet that takes over a child’s life. A romance set in a conservative Christian parish in Australia faces threats to a relationship between two teenage boys.
"Sooner or later, every horror franchise gets a reboot, so why shouldn't a horror parody series. This sixth banquet of Wayans brothers spoofery brings together much of the original gang. And it's the first series installment since 2013, which means there's a lot of new material to mock from M3GAN to A Quiet Place, Get Out and Sinners."
"Steven Spielberg's been making the world safe for aliens since E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial and Close Encounters of the Third Kind, so who better to let us know that off-worlders not only exist, but are already among us? Josh O'Connor's the cybersecurity expert who's ready to blow the whistle on a decades-long coverup."
"Hugh Jackman isn't playing the cheery, rob-from-the-rich-give-to-the-poor archer we know from dozens of Sherwood Forest chronicles. His Robin is critically injured and grappling with the pain he's caused in his life of crime and murder. Along for the dark ride are Killing Eve's Jodie Comer and Hamnet's Noah Jupe."
"A comic tale of Toys vs. Tech: the playthings that launched a zillion Pixar classics return to the big screen to battle a tiny screen. Young Bonnie's been playing with Jessie (Joan Cusack), Buzz (Tim Allen) and Rex (Wallace Shawn) when a child-friendly tablet named Lilypad (Greta Lee) takes over her life. Keep fingers crossed that Woody (Tom Hanks) has a solution."
