‘Dark Phoenix’ Trailer 2

By Ryan Beltram

20th Century Fox has released a new trailer for Dark Phoenix. The follow-up to X-Men: Apocalypse sees our mutants attempting to control Jean Grey (Sophie Turner) as she struggles to harness her powers. This trailer reveals a possible major plot twist. But between the bad buzz this film has gotten (Multiple reshoots and bad test screenings) and Disney purchasing Fox, Dark Phoenix looks like an expensive flop that will officially end this iteration of X-Men on a whimper. The movie looks fine. But that's sort of the point. Dark Phoenix opens June 7.No Current Trailer

‘Rocketman’ Trailer

By Ryan Beltram

Paramount has released the second trailer for Rocketman. The biopic follows Elton John's (Taron Egerton) rise to becoming one of the most beloved rock stars in the world. Music biopics are in right now so this was inevitable. I'm still a little concerned with Egerton singing as opposed to just lip-syncing John's voice. I'm not against real singing if it works (See: Walk the Line), but Egerton just doesn't sound like John and it might take me out of the movie. Rocketman opens May 31.No Current Trailer

‘The Highwaymen’ Trailer

By Ryan Beltram

Netflix has released the first trailer for The Highwaymen. Starring Kevin Costner and Woody Harrelson, the film follows a pair old school Texas Rangers trying to track down the infamous Bonnie and Clyde. Whereas 1967's Bonnie and Clyde glorified the outlaws, this film paints them as ruthless killers. Costner and Harrelson seem like an interesting duo to pair up and while I'm not a fan of director John Lee Hancock's past work, this could be an entertaining Depression-era gangster film. The Highwaymen arrives on Netflix on March 29.No Current Trailer

‘Leaving Neverland’ Trailer

By Ryan Beltram

HBO Films has released the first trailer for Leaving Neverland. The documentary follows Wade Robson and James Safechuck, two men who allege that pop singer Michael Jackson abused them as boys. There have been allegations against Jackson for many years yet the late singer has somehow managed to avoid much negative press. This controversial doc might shed some new light on his sordid past. Part one of Leaving Neverland airs on HBO on March 3rd and part two airs the following night.No Current Trailer

‘Long Shot’ Trailer

By Ryan Beltram

Lionsgate has released the first trailer for Long Shot. The comedy follows an unlikely romance between a shlubby political writer (Seth Rogen) and his first crush and former babysitter who also happens to be Secretary of State (Charlize Theron). Director Jonathan Levine has a great track with Rogen (50/50, The Night Before) and the pairing of Rogen and Theron is so unique it just might work. Long Shot opens May 3.No Current Trailer

‘Ma’ Trailer

By Ryan Beltram

Universal has released the first trailer for Ma. Octavia Spencer stars as a lonely woman who lives in a small Ohio town. When a group of teenagers ask her to buy them booze, she does them one better by letting them party in her basement. But this kind gesture eventually leads to obsession. This looks like another run-of-the-mill thriller in the vein of Single White Female. But it's nice to see Oscar-winner Spencer having a blast. Ma opens May 31.No Current Trailer
