Independence Day: Resurgence

London is in trouble in the delightfully cheesy trailer for Independence Day: Resurgence. While Will Smith won't be returning for this outing (RIP Captain Steven Hiller), the able Liam Hemsworth will be stepping into his shoes to fend off a returning alien threat in the new future.
Kudos to the trailer for giving us a glimpse of the new gravity warping powers of the returning aliens, and of course any excuse to watch Jeff Goldblum do anything is a welcome treat.
Independence Day: Resurgence is released June 23rd, 2016.
The Founder

The origins of McDonald's are under the microscope in this fascinating biographical film The Founder. Michael Keaton is back in full on "give me a sodding Oscar, Birdman was great" mode as Ray Kroc, the man who's credited as the founder of McDonald's restaurants. Except according to this film it took a lot of double crossing, back stabbing and legal shenanigans for Kroc to get there. Hmm... now we're hungry.
The Founder is released August 5th, 2016.
X-Men: Apocalypse

Things are looking suitably apocalyptic in the final trailer for X-Men: Apocalypse. The eighth (that's right, EIGHT) film starring the mutant superheroes will see the band more divided than ever, as they try to take on Omega Level (that's comic speak for REALLY sodding powerful) mutant Apocalypse, who naturally wants to destroy the world.
Looks suitably big and crash-bang-wallop. Look out for the interesting character cameo right at the end.
X-Men: Apocalypse is released May 27th, 2016.
