Caught Stealing - Goons, Guns, and a Cat

Austin Butler makes a mainstream comeback with this action crime thriller Caught Stealing that also stars Regina King, Zoë Kravitz, Matt Smith, Liev Schreiber, and Vincent D'Onofrio. The characters show a diversity of race and personalities that gives color from the start. Austin indeed has that charisma even coming from obscure characters in past films now embraces his role as Hank.

The timeline for this movie goes back to the 90’s where there are still a lot of ways to get away with illegal things. This setting gives a lot of things to happen without the expectations of the present. The violence is brutal yet comical at some points. It also mirrors a reality that even simple individuals can get caught up to complicated crimes with one wrong decision.

“Like many movie lovers, I’m hungry for new worlds, new characters, and a new way of thinking about the human experience,” director Kogonada notes, describing his inspiration for his new original film A Big Bold Beautiful Journey. The film stars Margot Robbie and Colin Farrell together on screen for the first time, as strangers who meet at a mutual friend’s wedding who unexpectedly find themselves on A Big Bold Beautiful Journey. 

Doors play an important role in the film, as they bring the characters back to key moments in their pasts.  “I love the theatre of doors. When I see a door on a theatrical stage, it always sparks the imagination. That door has the potential to lead us anywhere - into the mundane or the magical. Doors represent possibilities. They are inherently mysterious. Opening a door, literally and figuratively, means entering a new space, a new experience, a new moment in your life,” director Kogonada (Columbus, After Yang) explains.

Chris Evans and Pedro Pascal are out to steal hearts in “Materialists”

After finding the perfect Lucy in Dakota Johnson, director Celine Song set her sights on completing her leading trio in Materialists. For Lucy’s broke, soft-hearted ex John,  Song met an immediate match with Chris Evans after meeting with him. “I walked away from that conversation knowing that in his humility, his passion, his dedication to his craft... there was something about the way he was talking to me about his love and his work, his ambitions, the places he felt certain and the places he felt uncertain. It was very moving to me, it's a feeling that doesn’t leave you.”

Dakota Johnson is on a mission for the perfect match as matchmaker Lucy in “Materialists”

Opens Aug 6 in PH cinemas

For Academy Award-nominated director Celine Song, her sophomore film Materialists lifts from a chapter in her life as a matchmaker in New York City. Song based her character Lucy around that career, and Materialists around modern dating culture. “She’s (Lucy) somebody who’s very clear about the fact that love really does baffle her, but she’s very good at the math of dating,” Song describes.

Song felt like there was an immediate connection when she met Dakota Johnson for the role. “We were having a meeting and the way that she is so vulnerable and so funny and sharp, I remember walking away from her thinking, she’s Lucy,” Song recalls.

Rising stars portray the young group of people dealing with the horrific consequences of their actions, and for director Jennifer Kaytin Robinson, the chemistry of the cast feels genuine. “The cast chemistry really leaps off the screen,” she continues. “It was like lightning in a bottle.

Slashers are so back. 90s nostalgia meets modern horror in “I Know What You Did Last Summer”

The original I Know What You Did Last Summer is one of the most iconic slasher films in cinema, and for producer Neal H. Moritz, it was time to bring the horror to a new generation of fans. “Horror fans have always had a soft spot for this franchise, and we felt there was still something here – a great central idea that could resonate with a new generation.

We came at the new film with passion for the material, a willingness to evolve the story, and a real respect for the fans who still talk about the original,” Moritz, who also produced the original 1997 film, says.

Sally Hawkins, Billy Barratt, and Sora Wong are a fractured family in the A24 horror film “Bring Her Back”

Arriving in PH cinemas July 16, rated R-16 with no cuts

Following the success of their debut, Talk to Me, directors Danny and Michael Philippou took a turn on how to approach their latest horror film Bring Her Back. “Talk to Me feels like a party horror film, but this film is more character-driven,” Danny says. “We liked the challenge of a contained story about these three characters, focusing on their relationships.”

As they lean heavily into the characters of Bring Her Back, they couldn’t have thought of anyone better to be Laura, the character who drives the mysterious narrative of the film, than Academy Award-nominated actress Sally Hawkins. “Seeing all these different characters that she [Hawkins] would build big backstories for, that was so exciting to me, the idea of someone bringing that much care to her characters,” Danny says. “Laura is written almost in a more outwardly confident way, but Sally brought this depth to it and portrayed it in a different, more interesting way. Laura struggles with what she’s doing in the film, and that is what humanizes her, I think,” adds Michael.

A worldwide search was on for the actor who will take on the mantle of Karate Kid for Karate Kid: Legends, and producer Karen Rosenfelt felt that Ben Wang was the perfect fit for the role. “It’s always like threading a needle when you're looking for the center of a film,” she says. “I couldn't be happier with Ben. He’s exactly what I saw in my mind. I think he’s the Marty McFly of our generation. He’s so talented—he performed most of his own stunts—and I think he’s got an amazing career ahead of him.”

The legends are back. Ralph Macchio and Jackie Chan team up for “Karate Kid: Legends” Arriving in PH cinemas on May 28

It’s only a matter of time that legends Ralph Macchio and Jackie Chan come together for the ultimate martial arts film, and time has finally come in Karate Kid: Legends. “Bringing these two legends together is beyond a producer's dream,” says producer Karen Rosenfelt. “What’s fresh and unique about this movie is that both Mr. Han and Daniel LaRusso are training a Chinese, Mandarin-speaking boy. It's a story about family and recovering what's important. And it works as a standalone if you have never seen a Karate Kid film, and it’s also a love letter to those who were there for The Karate Kid in 1984.”
