The summer will be packed with sequels, prequels and adaptations. Several franchises will see new installments, including Beverly Hills Cop, Bad Boys, Beetlejuice and Inside Out.
Updated: 17 minutes agoThe surf is up this summer, bringing what board riders might call a “set” of cinematic waves to movie theaters: Two Kevin Bacon movies! Two Shyamalan movies — a father and daughter affair! And two Kevin Costner movies!
What’s the buzz? Writer/director Ishana Shyamalan, the 23-year-old daughter of horror auteur and producer M. Night Shyamalan, makes her feature debut. The younger Shyamalan’s résumé incudes short films and music videos — mostly for her sister, R&B singer Saleka.Martin Lawrence, left, and Will Smith in “Bad Boys: Ride or Die.” Starring: Will Smith, Martin Lawrence, Joe Pantoliano, Paola Núñez, Vanessa Hudgens, Alexander Ludwig, Tiffany Haddish.
What’s the buzz? As Pixar’s “Turning Red” did with the theme of menstruation, this new film tackles the complexities of growing up — and all that entails. “Inside Out” ended with 12-year-old Riley’s emotional control center getting outfitted with a new button labeled “Puberty.” Watch out: Chapter 2 picks up with her at 13.Starring: Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Lola Petticrew, Arinzé Kene.
What’s the buzz? “The Bikeriders” reunites writer-director Jeff Nichols with Shannon, who starred in the filmmaker’s “Midnight Special” and “Take Shelter.”Starring: June Squibb, Richard Roundtree, Clark Gregg, Parker Posey. What’s the story? Set to be released in two parts, this saga of the American West, set during the years leading up to and after the Civil War, is a longtime labor of love for director, co-writer and star Costner.
What’s the buzz? Ferrell has some experience playing a cartoon villain. He was the star of 2010′s “Megamind.” What’s the story? Set after the action of “X” and its prequel, “Pearl,” the final installment in director Ti West’s low-budget horror trilogy is set in 1985 Hollywood. Goth, the star of the first two films and a producer of this one, plays a young actress who is hoping to make the leap from porn to mainstream movies even as a serial killer known as the Night Stalker terrorizes Los Angeles.
What’s the story? Shot in Tornado Alley — specifically Oklahoma — this disaster film doesn’t feature characters from “Twister.” Unlike the weather researchers of the 1996 film, gathering data to test a piece of weather tech, Powell’s tornado wrangler is a reckless social media obsessive, out for kicks .
What’s the story? A cinematic sequel to the beloved 1955 picture book about a boy who has the ability to will a world into existence by drawing it, this combination of live action and animation features Levy as a grown-up version of the title character.
