As March warms up certain portions of the world, the box office is also heating up with some of the year’s buzziest movies so far. Academy Award-winning writer-director Bong Joon Ho teams with Robert Pattinson, Mark Ruffalo, Toni Collette, and more for the highly anticipated Mickey 17. Event Horizon and Resident Evil director Paul W. S. Anderson guides us into the — not-Westeros — world of George R. R. Martin‘s imagination, In the Lost Lands. Michael Fassbender and Cate Blanchett co-lead director Steven Soderbergh‘s Black Bag, where the spies that love together don’t necessarily stay together.
Playing dual roles as two real-life mafia leaders in The Alto Knights proves that Robert De Niro isn’t content to rest on his countless laurels. The fairest of them all, Rachel Zegler, helps usher Snow White into the live-action Disney movie pantheon. And sure, we like to imagine that unicorns are real — but what about the Death of a Unicorn? Last but not least, Ayo Edebiri investigates John Malkovich‘s reclusive and dangerous pop star, Nicole Kidman suspects her duplicitous husband of murder, Anthony and Joe Russo direct Millie Bobby Brown, Chris Pratt, and a host of robots, and Jason Statham kicks butt.
