Todd Phillips directs Joker: Folie à Deux with Joaquin Phoenix reprising his role as the Joker. Lady Gaga, as Harley Quinn, brings magic to the movie. According to Variety, the film is supposedly a jukebox musical.
Phillips told Variety that this assumption is accurate, but the film features a wealth of song and dance numbers. Still, very little information is known about the sequel’s storyline.

But when a gang of knife-wielding thieves led by the ruthless Fani, played by Raghav Juyal, terrorizes innocent passengers on his train, Amrit takes them on himself in a death-defying kill-spree to save those around him — turning what should have been a typical commute into an adrenaline-fueled thrill ride.

There is hardly any information about Disneynature’s Tiger movie. The trailer says most of what you need to know, but even that is not posted here, thanks to YouTube. The production went to India’s jungles and filmed tigers. Disney produces these films under the Disneynature banner to educate the world about nature.
Don Hahn, an executive producer of Earth and the subsequent Oceans and African Cats, noted that these documentaries take 5 years to make. “I think what’s encouraging to me and what’s fun for me is to take it on one-on-one. For example, now I’m at Disneyland actually doing this interview and I just walked out of a screening full of school kids. There were probably 400 school kids in this theater watching Oceans, and each one of them will take home a piece from that movie: a memory, a sense of responsibility, a sense of awe or wonderment at it. I think that a one-on-one relationship with a filmmaker and an audience, or an adult and a child, or a teacher and a student, is really crucial and important to changing our mindset.”
Hahn spoke about the environment viewed as a complete entity, which can come across as intimidating and overwhelming. Showing this movie to schoolchildren is an excellent way to spread positive environmental messages.
Yorgos Lanthimos directed Kinds of Kindness, which he calls a triptych fable. It begins with the story of a man without a choice who tries to take control of his own life.
A police officer becomes alarmed that his wife, who was missing at sea, has returned and seems like a different person. A determined woman wants to find someone with special abilities who will become a prodigious spiritual leader.
I am sure there is more to the story, but Lanthimos films appear skewed with abbreviated characters. As the reviews appear, the storyline becomes hashed out.
The cast includes Emma Stone, Jesse Plemons, Willem Dafoe, Margaret Qualley, Hong Chau, Joe Alwyn, Mamoudou Athie, and Hunter Schafer.
Other movies by Lanthimos:
The Lobster
Dogtooth
The Killing of a Scared Deer

Fede Alvarez directed Alien: Romulus, a film about a group of young people from a distant world who come face-to-face with the most terrifying life form in the universe. Dan O’Bannon, Fede Alvarez and Rodo Sayagues wrote the script. Ridley Scott, the original director of the Alien franchise, produced the movie.
The first trailer is six seconds over one minute, so it doesn’t tell us much. We hear screaming and see a bloodbath and aliens. Alvarez reportedly said the story takes place between the Alien and Aliens movies.
Historically, Romulus was the creator and initial king of Rome. He’s also known for having a twin brother, Remus. Mythology surrounds Roman history at this time with unclear events and institutions.
The cast of Alien: Romulus includes Isabela Merced, Cailee Spaeny, Archie Renaux and David Jonsson.
