A Reel Preview: The Year in Film 2024 - Episode VII





Believe it or not, 2024 is now halfway to the end-credits. In any good movie, the halfway point should be raising the stakes…and this July will be doing just that with a packed month. Here’s what’s coming to the big screen this July: 

 

 

 

DESPICABLE ME 4 – The fourth main installment and sixth overall film in the DESPICABLE ME franchise which started way back in 2010. This time, Gru (Steve Carrell), protects his young son and family from a vengeful villain. The rest of the voice-cast includes Kristen Wiig, Will Ferrell, Joey King, and Sofia Vergera. 

 

 

 

MAXXXINE – Director Ti West delivers the third film in his acclaimed horror/slasher trilogy. Mia Goth returns in the lead role, which this time has her character chasing Hollywood fame while evading a serial killer. 

 

 

 

FLY ME TO THE MOON – Set during the 1960’s space race, a romance begins between NASA’s director (Channing Tatum), and their new marketing specialist (Scarlett Johansson). 

 

 

 

THE LION KING – The return of the Disney classic to the big screen in celebration of it’s 30th anniversary.

 

 

 

LONGLEGS – In this horror/thriller, Maika Monroe stars as an FBI agent in pursuit of a Satanic serial killer…played by Nicolas Cage. 

 

 

 

TWISTERS – The standalone legacy-sequel to the 1996 smash disaster film. This time, two rival tornado chasers (Daisy Edgar-Jones, Glen Powell), join forces to save lives in Oklahoma. Anthony Ramos co-stars. 

 

 

 

DEADPOOL & WOLVERINE – The long-awaited bloody team-up of Deadpool (Ryan Reynolds), and Wolverine (Hugh Jackman), in the only Marvel MCU film this year. Shawn Levy (NIGHT AT THE MUSEUM), directs.
