TEN MOVIES TO EXPECT THIS SUMMER

TEN MOVIES TO EXPECT THIS SUMMER

By Solomon Obi

In the coming months there are great movies dropping this summer and we can't keep our excitement down they include the movie a decade in the making: "Avengers: Infinity War", a Star Wars "Han Solo Movie", a Deadpool sequel and an all female Ocean's 8 movie. These and more many are below


1) Avengers: Infinity War - April 27
Well you might have heard about this little movie. It has a few superheroes in it and they finally battle a big purple guy. Yes, it’s going to make a couple of dollars at the movie theaters. Get ready for the most ambitious crossover event in history.


2) Overboard - May 4
The classic Goldie Hawn/Kurt Russell 1987 romantic comedy gets a gender swap for its reboot, as Anna Faris plays the overworked employee of a spoiled Mexican playboy (Eugenio Derbez) who gets some payback when he gets amnesia after falling off his yacht.


3) Tully - May 4
Jason Reitman reteams with "Young Adult" screenwriter Diablo Cody (“Juno”) and star Charlize Theron for his latest movie about a mother (Theron) who forms a unique bond with her nanny (played by Mackenzie Davis).


4) Deadpool 2 - May 18
Ryan Reynolds returns as the Merc with a Mouth and we couldn’t be more excited. This time Cable (Josh Brolin) and Domino (Zazie Beetz) are along for the ride. It’s going to be a foul-mouthed good time.


5) Solo: A Star Wars Story - May 25
With its original directors getting fired, and an emergency acting coach sent on set for its lead actor, the standalone young Han Solo movie has received the kind of attention Disney and Lucasfilm weren’t hoping for. We’ll see if replacement director Ron Howard and actor Alden Ehrenreich as Solo can pull off another “Star Wars” hit.


6) Action Point - June 1
It’s honestly the role Johnny Knoxville was born to play: the owner of an out-of-control amusement park. Based on the infamous New Jersey theme park, Action Park, Knoxville plays the owner of Action Point, an amusement park with poorly designed rides and under-trained staff. Expect a lot of “Jackass”-inspired stunts in this one.


7) Hereditary - June 8
Receiving incredible buzz following its world premiere at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, this horror movie from A24 (“Moonlight,” “The Florida Project”) might be the movie to check out this summer if you’re tired of the superhero movies.


8) Ocean’s 8 - June 8
The “Ocean’s” franchise returns with the all-female leading cast that includes Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett, Anne Hathaway, Mindy Kaling, Sarah Paulson, and Rihanna.


9) Life of the Party - June 11
After “Tammy” and “The Boss,” Melissa McCarthy teams once again with her husband, director Ben Falcone, in this comedy about a mother (McCarthy) who decides to spice up her life by going back to college. Specifically, she goes to the same school her daughter goes to. Expect the usual McCarthy silliness. The movie also stars Gillian Jacobs and Maya Rudolph.


10)Eighth Grade - July 13 (Limited)
A24 also has this highly anticipated teen comedy out during the summer. The feature directorial debut of comedian Bo Burnham, it follows a teenager surviving her last week of eighth grade who can’t wait to start high school.

These are ten movies to expect this summer more updates will emerge in coming posts.
