AIN’T THEM
BODIES SAINTS
(AUG. 16)
Rooney Mara and
Casey Affleck
star in Ain’t Them
Bodies Saints,
another film that
made waves at this
year’s Sundance
Film Festival.
THE TO-DO LIST
(AUG. 16)
Aubrey Plaza
stars in this
R-rated comedy
about a young
woman looking
to become
a sexual pro
before college.
WORLD WAR Z (JUNE 21)
Originally set
for release last
December, World
War Z finally arrives
in theaters this
June. Will the Brad
Pitt film overcome a
troubled production
(including lastminute rewrites
and reported fights
between Pitt and
director Marc
Forster) and find
its audience? Since
zombies are so hot
right now (Zoolander
reference), don’t
bet against that
happening.
THE LONE RANGER (JULY 3)
Disney’s $250 million gamble: will audiences want to see The
Lone Ranger with Johnny Depp when Johnny Depp isn’t playing
The Lone Ranger? (He’s Tonto.) Gore Verbinksi (the Pirates
franchise) directs, so don’t be surprised if the answer is yes.
THE WORLD’S END
(AUG. 23)
Director Edgar
Wright and stars
Simon Pegg and Nick
Frost team together
for a third time with
The World’s End, an
apocalypse comedy
set in England. Their
previous efforts were
Shaun of the Dead
and Hot Fuzz so put
this on your radar.
THE WOLVERINE
(JULY 26)
Hope it’s better
than X-Men Origins:
Wolverine.
