Ghostbusters
30 years after the original Ghostbusters stole our hearts, an all-female crew is ready to take over the job. And what a cast we have for this one: Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones. Dan Aykroyd is credited with the script, and Chris Hemsworth, Bill Murray, and Sigourney Weaver are also part of this Ghostbusters revival that launches July 15th. Who you gonna call?
Finding Dory
The Finding Nemo sequel focuses on that forgetful blue tang fish that we loved in the first installment of this Pixar franchise. The movie hits cinemas on July 17th and stars Ellen DeGeneres, Albert Brooks, Hayden Rolence, Ed O’Neill, Ty Burrell, Diane Keaton, Idris Elba, and many others.
Ice Age: Collision Course
Finding Dory
won’t be the only animated movie your kids will want to see this year. Add the new Ice Age: Collision Course movie to that list, which is launching July 22nd. We’ve got the same gang we’ve grown to love, including Manny, Diego, Sid, and Scrat. This time, they’re involved in a spacey adventure, with Scrat kicking things into high gear after he catapults himself outside of Earth. Here’s the brand new trailer:

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot
What do you get when you mix Tina Fey’s romantic comedies with a serious matter like the Afghanistan war? A movie that’s called Whiskey Tango Foxtrot and it opens today in cinemas around the world. Is it a good idea to have Tina Fey in charge of such a film? We’ll have to wait and see the movie, but until then, here are a few TV ads that were released earlier this week for the film.
