About Nobody 2:
Bob Odenkirk returns as suburban husband, father and workaholic assassin Hutch Mansell in the new chapter to Nobody, the hit 2021 bare-knuckle action-thriller that opened at number one at the U.S. box office.

The enduring appeal of the Jurassic films is the main inspiration for the newest installment in the franchise, Jurassic World Rebirth. “It’s called Rebirth. It harkens back to the first film.

For How to Train Your Dragon book series author Cressida Cowell, seeing the animated world based on her best-selling novels transform into live-action was nothing short of magical. Walking through the village of Berk or into the blacksmith’s forge was like stepping into a dream,” Cowell says. “The attention to detail—the wear on the tools, the weathered wood of the buildings—made everything feel alive. It was extraordinary.”

Ayala Malls Cinemas continues to set the standard as the premier destination for movie enthusiasts, offering an unmatched cinematic experience tailored for true film lovers. As the go-to spot for exclusive releases, Ayala Malls Cinemas proudly presents Black Bag—the latest edge-of-your-seat spy thriller from acclaimed director Steven Soderbergh. Featuring a stellar cast including Michael Fassbender, Cate Blanchett, Marisa Abela, Tom Burke, Naomie Harris, Regé-Jean Page, and Pierce Brosnan, this gripping film is best experienced where luxury meets entertainment—only at Ayala Malls Cinemas.
Black Bag revolves around George Woodhouse (Michael Fassbender), a top British intelligence officer working for the National Cybersecurity Center (NCSC) as he faces the ultimate test of loyalty when he investigates a critical security breach. His devotion to his country is only matched by his loyalty to his wife, fellow agent Kathryn St. Jean (Cate Blanchett). When the agency is alerted to a mole within their ranks, Woodhouse is given a list of five suspects to investigate, a list that includes his beloved wife.

When widowed mother Violet (Meghann Fahy) finally takes the plunge and steps out on her first date in years, she starts receiving innocuous but annoying media drops on her phone. Things begin to take a turn for the nightmarish as the pesky drops turn into threats to her son’s life. She is directed to kill her date (Brandon Sklenar) or risk losing her son. Time is ticking as she races to unveil the tormentor hiding in plain sight at the restaurant her date is taking place.
From director Steven Soderbergh comes the gripping spy drama, Black Bag, where legendary intelligence agents and married couple George(Michael Fassbender) and Kathryn(Cate Blanchett) Woodhouse balance their dangerous career with their marriage. When Kathryn is suspected of treachery, George must make a choice between his loyalty to his marriage or his country.

Director Soderbergh and screenwriter David Koepp have teamed up before, most recently with the 2024 thriller Presence. This time this unconventional spy drama takes people behind the lives of elite officers who work in the shadows. The idea for Black Bag came to Koepp as he was conducting interviews on intelligence officers for the blockbuster Mission: Impossible franchise. “All the spycraft stuff was very cool, but I learned more than I ever expected about the people,” he says. “One woman told me that her job made it impossible for her to sustain a relationship. A line in the movie was inspired by my conversations with her. ‘When you can lie about everything, how do you tell the truth about anything?’”
A brand new Nosferatu emerges from acclaimed director Robert Eggers’ mind, and for him, it’s also a story close to his heart. “In many ways, my adaptation of Nosferatu is my most personal film. A story, not engendered by me, but one that I have lived with, within, and dreamed about since childhood. I often felt I had the same un-jaded creative spark of a first time filmmaker when finally making the film because of the years of thought I have put into it. I feel more fortunate than ever to have had the chance to make it with my trusted team of long-time collaborators,” he says.
Action, thrills, and a whole lot of dinosaurs await in Jurassic World Rebirth, the newest age in the timeless series. Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey, and Mahershala Ali form a team on a top-secret mission to secure genetic material from the ancient creatures that may be the key in providing a live-saving drug to mankind.

February 12 - Bridget Jones: Mad About the Boy (Universal Pictures)
Cast: Renée Zellweger, Hugh Grant, Emma Thompson, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Leo Woodall, Colin Firth, Jim Broadbent, Gemma Jones, Isla Fisher
Directed by: Michael Morris
Bridget Jones (Renée Zellweger) navigates life as a widow and single mom with the help of her family, friends, and former lover, Daniel (Hugh Grant). Back to work and on the apps, she’s pursued by a younger man and maybe – just maybe – her son’s science teacher (Leo Woodall).
Bringing the Wolf Man to life is a monumental feat, and wanting to honor the original 1941 classic of the same name, director Leigh Whannell channels inspiration from horror history. . “If you think about that look that was created for Boris Karloff’s Frankenstein in 1931 or Lon Chaney’s Wolf Man in 1941, those were things that audiences had never seen,” Whannell says. “Those images have lasted because they’re so striking. Anybody dealing with monsters today lives in the shadow of these artists. Every makeup artist whose name is etched into the Hall of Fame—from Rick Baker and Rob Bottin to Stan Winston and Jack Pierce, all these artists have created something brilliant that sticks in your mind.”

Blake, a struggling father and husband, is played by Christopher Abbott(Poor Things), who director Whannell thinks breathes life into the tortured character. “Chris is unable to be inauthentic,” Whannell says. “He doesn’t hit a false note. He’s not a showy actor, and he’s allergic to performative acting or reaching. He just wants to bring it into a living, breathing zone, and it’s a magic trick to watch.”
It’s finally here! “Wicked” invites fans and movie-goers to be part of the magic, as special sing-along screenings arrive in the Philippines starting January 8. Sing to the greatest hits of the film such as “Popular,” and “Defying Gravity.”
