    Wicked

    Wicked


    PG
    • 160 MIN •Musical, Fantasy

    Director: Jon M. Chu

    Cast: Jonathan Bailey, Jeff Goldblum, Michelle Yeoh

    After two decades as one of the most beloved and enduring musicals on the stage, Wicked makes its long-awaited journey to the big screen as a spectacular, generation-defining cinematic event this holiday season. Wicked, the untold story of the witches of Oz, stars Emmy, Grammy and Tony winning powerhouse Cynthia Erivo (Harriet, Broadway’s The Color Purple) as Elphaba, a young woman, misunderstood because of her unusual green skin, who has yet to discover her true power, and Grammy-winning, multi-platinum recording artist and global superstar Ariana Grande as Glinda, a popular young woman, gilded by privilege and ambition, who has yet to discover her true heart. The two meet as students at Shiz University in the fantastical Land of Oz and forge an unlikely but profound friendship. Following an encounter with The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, their friendship reaches a crossroads and their lives take very different paths. Glinda's unflinching desire for popularity sees her seduced by power, while Elphaba's determination to remain true to herself, and to those around her, will have unexpected and shocking consequences on her future. Their extraordinary adventures in Oz will ultimately see them fulfill their destinies as Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West. The film also stars Oscar® winner Michelle Yeoh as Shiz University’s regal headmistress Madame Morrible; Jonathan Bailey (Bridgerton, Fellow Travelers) as Fiyero, a roguish and carefree prince; Tony nominee Ethan Slater (Broadway’s Spongebob Squarepants, Fosse/Verdon) as Boq, an altruistic Munchkin student; Marissa Bode in her feature-film debut as Nessarose, Elphaba’s favored sister; and pop culture icon Jeff Goldblum as the legendary Wizard of Oz.

    Gladiator II

    Gladiator II


    MA15+
    • 148 MIN •Action, Drama

    Director: Ridley Scott

    Cast: Denzel Washington, Pedro Pascal, Derek Jacobi

    There’s no place like Rome… Legendary filmmaker Ridley Scott embarks on an epic journey of the most epic proportions with the long-awaited sequel to his iconic, blood-pumping revenge tale, Gladiator, 24 years after its release. Oscar nominee Paul Mescal – looking gloriously toned and reminiscent of a Gladiator-era Russell Crowe – triumphs in the lead role of Lucius, the young son of Lucilla, Connie Nielsen’s noblewoman from the original movie. GLADIATOR II continues the story following on from the death of Crowe’s Maximus. Decades after Maximus sacrifices himself to topple corrupt leadership and society, Lucius has come of age far away from his mother who he grew to resent after she sent him to the northern coast of Africa when he was a child. Now grown, Lucius lives a mostly peaceful life with his wife and child until conquerors from Rome begin to make their way to the region. Pedro Pascal’s Marcus Acacius, a Roman general, leads the charge and is a symbol of everything Lucias is against. Following this conflict, Lucias is taken to be a prisoner of Rome and forced to enter the Colosseum as a gladiator. Oscar nominated Mescal stars alongside a mighty ensemble cast that includes two-time Oscar winner Denzel Washington, Pedro Pascal, Joseph Quinn, Fred Hechinger, Connie Nielsen, and Derek Jacobi. With this fighting-fit talent and pulse-pounding, sword-clashing action sequences, Scott delivers another superb instant classic of the genre.

    Lee

    M
    • 117 MIN •Drama, Biography, War

    Director: Ellen Kuras

    Cast: Marion Cotillard, Alexander Skarsgård, Kate Winslet

    Oscar winner Kate Winslet stars in this fascinating portrait of the great American war correspondent Lee Miller, whose singular talent and ferocious tenacity gave us some of the 20th century’s most indelible images. A former model, Lee is now tired of being viewed through a lens and by men, and focusses on her own work as a photographer. As the threat of war looms, everything about their daily lives changes completely, almost overnight. Frustrated by the restrictions placed on female photographers at the time, who are limited to documenting life on the home front, Miller urges her female boss at British Vogue, to request permission for Lee to go to the frontline. With a profound understanding and empathy for women and for the voiceless victims of atrocious crimes, her images feature both the fragility and ferocity of the human ability to survive, exist, fight, defend and live. Directed by award winning cinematographer Ellen Kuras, and featuring superb supporting performances from Marion Cotillard, Andrea Riseborough, Andy Samberg and Alex Skarsgard, the film is a vivid reminder of the bold women who fought to penetrate male-dominated spaces — making great sacrifices and ultimately changing the way we see the world.

    The Substance

    The Substance


    R18+
    • 140 MIN •Body Horror

    Director: Coralie Fargeat

    Cast: Dennis Quaid, Margaret Qualley, Demi Moore

    Demi Moore delivers the performance of her career according to critics in Coralie Fargeat’s audacious Cannes Film Festival Best Screenplay award-winning body horror, THE SUBSTANCE. Moore's co-star Margaret Qualley is also ferociously formidable coming off of two similarly outlandish and bold roles in Yorgos Lanthimos' Oscar-winning ‘Poor Things’ and his twisted follow-up ‘Kinds Of Kindness’. Elisabeth Sparkle (Moore), renowned for an aerobics show, faces a devastating blow on her 50th birthday when she is unceremoniously fired. Amid her distress, a laboratory offers her a black-market substance which promises to transform her into an enhanced version of herself (Qualley). A frenzied and satirical body horror that's as clever as it is gory, THE SUBSTANCE adds a timely and viscerally confronting feminist spin on ageism and the toll of vanity.
