!
JOURNEY to the African savannah in an all-new take on Disney's The Lion King that utilises pioneering filmmaking techniques to bring treasured characters to life in a whole new way. Without a doubt the most highly anticipated of Disney’s live-action remakes, The Lion King is set to be the pick of the Pride and follows the story of a young cub named Simba from infancy to adulthood. Simba idolises his father, King Mufasa, and takes to heart his own royal destiny. But not everyone in the kingdom celebrates the new cub’s arrival. Scar, Mufasa's brother – and the former heir to the throne – has plans of his own. The battle for Pride Rock is ravaged with betrayal, tragedy, and drama, ultimately resulting in Simba’s exile. With help from a curious pair of newfound friends, Simba will have to figure out how to grow up and take back what is rightfully his. The all-star voice cast includes Donald Glover as Simba, Beyoncé Knowles-Carter as Nala, Chiwetel Ejiofor as Scar, James Earl Jones as Mufasa, John Oliver as Zazu, Billy Eichner as Timon, and Seth Rogen as Pumbaa.
NEW RELEASE
The Current War
SPARKS fly as Benedict Cumberbatch’s Thomas Edison and Michael Shannon’s George Westinghouse lock horns in an electrifying period drama depicting the fierce battle to power the world. Director Alfonso Gomez-Rejon transports us to late 19th century America, where iconic inventor Thomas Edison attempts to dazzle Manhattan with his large scale, low voltage, direct current technology. He’s supported by his wife, Mary Edison, and pushed on his ethics by his forthright assistant. However, it’s the mutton-chopped George Westinghouse who feels he’s seen fatal flaws in Edison's plan. Backed by J.P. Morgan and his wife, Marguerite, they bet everything on the riskier high voltage alternating current, so igniting the famous “War of the Currents". The script from playwright Michael Mitnick strikes a delicate balance between scientific theory and human interest in a bid to fully light up our screens this summer. It’ll also trace the early journey of enigmatic electrical engineer Nikola Tesla and his own part in the ensuing “war". Benedict Cumberbatch and Michael Shannon star as the rival electricity titans and lead a stellar cast including Katherine Waterston, Tom Holland, Matthew Macfadyen, Tuppence Middleton and Nicholas Hoult.
