We’re now about 7 months away from the opening of the newest X-Men film X-Men: Apocalypse when it hits screens on May 27th 2016, but we now know when the first trailer will arrive. In an interview with our own Collider.com, writer/producer Simon Kinberg said the following: “I can in fact confirm that information. Our first trailer will be on Star Wars: The Force Awakens. It’s our first thing out there so it is somewhat of a teaser but it’s certainly longer than a minute and it has a ton of cool stuff in it.”
A brand new trailer for the upcoming crime film Triple 9 has just hit the web. The film boasts a large ensemble cast that includes Kate Winslet, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Anthony Mackie, Casey Affleck, Woody Harrelson, Gal Gadot, Aaron Paul, Norman Reedus, Clifton Collins Jr., and Teresa Palmer.

Two brand new posters for the upcoming comedy sequel Zoolander 2 have hit the web. The film opens on February 12th and star Ben Stiller describes the film as follows: “It’s basically Derek and Hansel ten years later – though the last movie ended on a happy note a lot of things have happened in the meantime. Their lives have changed and they’re not really relevant anymore. It’s a new world for them.”
As some of you may know, the writer/director the this year’s acclaimed film Ex Machina, Alex Garland, is next directing the Paramount Pictures film Annihilation. Described as a futuristic gothic horror. Earlier this year actress Natalie Portman signed on to star in the film and it looks like we have our other lead.
