Next month is the annual exhibitor showcase Cinemacon where movie studios tout their wares for the very anxious theater owners.
It has already been announced that Sony is sitting this year out, so no info on VENOM 3: THE LAST DANCE, to be released October 25, 2024.
While I assume there will be some changes to the lineup, so far it is shaping up to be:
OPENING DAY: International Day features a screening of Universal 80s series remake THE FALL GUY starring Ryan Gosling, Emily Blunt, Hannah Waddingham and Aaron Taylor-Johnson (who has said in a recent interview that it is a small role) ; directed by David Leitch (BULLET TRAIN, DEADPOOL 2)
DAY ONE: WB pulls up with their presentation "The Big Picture". It will be the first Cinemacon for James Gunn in his position as Co-Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of DC Studios.
I expect a song and dance from Gunn about how awesome sauce the new DC film universe will be
I'll believe it when I see it.
Sure to tease SUPERMAN LEGACY which stars David Corenswet as the title character, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor.
JOKER: FOLIE A DEUX, BEETLEJUICE, BEETLEJUCE
MORE STUDIO OFFERINGS
Also, FURIOSA: A MAD MAX SAGA
, the supernatural horror film THE WATCHERS, directed and written by Ishana Night Shyamalan, daughter of M. Night
, M. Night Shymalan's TRAP starring Josh Hartnett, ALTO KNIGHTS with Robert DeNiro playing a dual role.
Certainly don't expect anything to hear about THE BATMAN sequel other than it won't shoot until 2025. There has been no reason provided, but some say there isn't even a script, others say it was because there were no soundstages available in London to shoot this year.
DAY TWO: ANGEL STUDIOS - The outfit behind SOUND OF FREEDOM.
I suspect they will tease SIGHT starring Greg Kinnear and BONHOEFFER (aka GOD'S SPY) about German theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer, starring August Diehl, Flula Borg and Clarke Peters.
LIONSGATE: I suspect they will tease Guy Ritchie's THE MINISTRY OF UNGENTLEMANLY WARFARE starring a pick-a-mix of men for all tastes - Henry Cavill, Alan Ritchson, Alex Pettyfer, Henry Golding and Hero Fiennes Tiffins
; the action-thriller BOY KILLS WORLD fronted by Bill Skarsgård and costarring Sharlto Copley, Andrew Koji (who is working like mad), Famke Janssen and Isaiah Mustafa.
Surely, another Bill Skarsgård film THE CROW with fka Twigs
; THE STRANGERS: CHAPTER 1, which is the third film in the franchise - doing a bit of FAST AND THE FURIOUS mathing. It stars Madelaine Petsch, Froy Guittierez and Gabriel Basso
At long last the BALLERINA has pliete into the spotlight. This JOHN WICK spinoff stars Ana De Armas, with Anjelica Huston reprising her role from JOHN WICK 2. It's direct by Len Wiseman who directed the UNDERWORLD films starring his ex-wife Kate Beckinsale.
BORDERLANDS, an action-comedy based on the game, brought to the screen by Eli Roth. Starring Kevin Hart, Jamie Lee Curtis, Jack Black, Cate Blanchett, Haley Bennett and Édgar Ramírez, amongst others.
and WHITE BIRD, which is in the same universe as the excellent children geared film WONDER. It was due to come out in 2023 but was pushed back due to the actors strike.
UNIVERSAL / FOCUS FEATURES: I suspect teases for Dev Patel's directorial debut MONKEY MAN. The film was originally slated to go to Netflix but Jordan Peele, under his Monkey Paw shingle, bought it and took it to Universal so it could have a theatrical release. *Granted, Netflix does a theatrical release for most of their films in certain markets, but I get Peele's rationale.
Their Monsters Universe theatrical idea didn't work, but Universal has realized there is more than one way to skin a cat. They are creating a Universal Monsters themed area at their parks and their monster/horror film ABIGAIL is a re-imaging of DRACULA'S DAUGHTER. It stars Alisha Weir, Melissa Barrera and Dan Stevens and features Angus Cloud in one of his last roles.
THE FALL GUY most definitely will have a place. Same with THE BIKERIDERS (with Austin Butler, Tom Hardy, Jodie Comer, Norman Reedus, Mike Faist, etc.), which was a 20th Century (Disney owned) Film, and even though it was the first major film out the gate ahead of Oscars/Golden Globes' FYC season with a screening and Q&A held in L.A., the studio purposely stalled the engine and towed it off their schedule. It will now be distributed by Focus Features in the U.S., and Universal, internationally.
Other possible teases? DESPICABLE ME 4, TWISTERS, the standalone sequel to the 90s film TWISTERS
, horror film SPEAK NO EVIL starring James McAvoy and Mackenzie Davis
, WICKED: PART ONE and Sir Ridley Scott's GLADIATOR 2 with Paul Mescal and Pedro Pascal.
There will also be a surprise screening; studio unknown.
DAY THREE: PARAMOUNT: Expected: the mixed live-action and animated comedy IF starring Ryan Reynolds, written/directed and produced by John Krasinski.
A QUIET PLACE: DAY ONE, GLADIATOR 2 (though this is a co-production with Universal, so maybe Uni will tout it), SONIC THE HEDGEHOG 3, the unending production that is MISSION IMPOSSIBLE 8,
WALT DISNEY: Possible: THE FIRST OMEN, KINGDOM OF THE PLANET OF THE APES
, MOANA 2, INSIDE OUT 2, DEADPOOL 3, ALIEN: ROMULUS, CAPTAIN AMERICA: BRAVE NEW WORLD and SNOW WHITE.
CinemaCon always closes out with their awards (which always ties into an upcoming release. Funny how that works.
So far the honourees are:
Star of the Year - Lupita Nyong'o (A QUIET PLACE: DAY ONE)
Breakthrough Performer of the Year - Joseph Quinn (A QUIET PLACE: DAY ONE)
CinemaCon Vanguard Award - Amy Poehler (INSIDE OUT 2)
Director of the Year - Shawn Levy (DEADPOOL AND WOLVERINE)

goodbye to discovery.
it's never been my favourite trek. but it's a trek that filled such a gap. it pulled me back in, before picard swallowed me whole.
when i think of discovery, i think of the time during lockdown. all three of us in the control room at work had been watching it. separately, at home or on breaks. our room looks like the bridge of a ship, dark... fancy lighting... a command structure... all facing a big viewscreen at the front of the room. we'd talk about that, and the characters. we decided who reminded us the most of who. it felt like i was seven again, pretending i was on the enterprise.
discovery was also pivotal in another way. at a time that was most dark, so was the show. it took me well over a year to get through season 4, because i watched an episode at a time so dark and dire, and it hit right where i was hurting. but it allowed me to feel, i cried through the episode and couldn't go back for a long time. but i did, and i appreciate it so much more now for helping me through those feelings.
sonequa martin green was on the star trek cruise this year, and honestly wow. i'm so proud that she represents star trek. she gets it and us. she was also our neighbour, and getting to say hi to her in the corridor was a thrill i will never forget. the childlike awe i've experienced when in the presence of patrick stewart, avery brooks, kate mulgrew? it's alive and well. and all the cast i've met could not have been more of a pleasure (special shoutouts to david ajala, mary wiseman, emily coutts, doug jones...)
like any show or story, there will be things i wanted differently. detmer and owo, you deserved better.
discovery feels like it has been here for so long, yet flew by. i'm so happy it existed, and brought trek back. to me, and the world.

Listen, I never said Bones and All was a GREAT film, but it's all the crumbs I get for my very particular trauma induced media interests:
For those of you who feel that, I think some things that are also included in this are:
Stoker, directed by Park Chan-wook (2013)
Raw, directed by Julia Ducournau (2016)
Bones and All, written by Camille DeAngelis (2015, please read the book. I don't hate what Guadagnino did, but he completely missed the point)
Ethel Cain (Music)
Nicole Dollanganger (Music)
Aeseaes (Music)
Flatsound (Music)
Axel St. Patience (Music)
Johanna Warren (Music)
Chloe Moriondo (Music)
Novo amor (music)
Coma Cinema (Music)
The Eyes of My Mother, directed by Nicolas Pesce (2016)
Sylvia Plath (Author/Poet)
Virginia Woolf (Author/Poet)
Wuthering Heights, written by Emily Bronte (1847)
Carmilla, written by Sheridan Le Fanu (1872)
The Life She was Given, written by Ellen Maria Wiseman (2017)
I can not put heavy enough trigger warnings on this content:
Triggers include SA, Eating Disorders, abuse, cptsd, generational trauma, cannibalism, gore, animal death, grief, regression, human death. Not many of these have happy endings.
