He's Back! First Teaser for 'Air Bud Returns' Basketball Doggo Movie

"Guess who's back?!" Cineverse has revealed the first official trailer for the next legacy sequel in the works titled Air Bud Returns, a follow-up to the classic original Air Bud dunk doggo basketball movie in 1997. Ever since that original debut 29 years ago, they've turned the Air Bud brand into an entire franchise with boatloads of doggie movies and his puppy "Buddies" mainly direct to video. Now for the 30th Anniversary, they're "rebooting" it with this legacy sequel Air Bud Returns, directed by Robert Vince. A grieving 12-year-old boy finds his dad's old VHS tape of Air Bud and then befriends a stray golden retriever in his new town. Together, they chase basketball dreams, rally a team of underdogs, and discover what it means to play with heart. Basically a repeat of the original but with the meta concept of the original being a part of it, kind of like that really bad Anaconda remake movie last year. Starring Aydin Artis, Tracy Ifeachor, Edwin Lee Gibson, Tyler Labine, Erik Gow, and Maxim Swinton. Last summer they held a casting search to find a new dog to star in this – and ended up casting two new golden retrievers in the role: Charlie & Summer. It was supposed to release this year, but now it'll bark into theaters January 2027. Check out the fun teaser. // Continue Reading ›

Fun Trailer for Wedding Day RomCom 'Do Us Part' with Kelly Russo

"You are a sleazeball!" Level 33 has debuted the first official trailer for an indie romantic comedy film titled Do Us Part, arriving to watch in limited theaters starting in August this summer. The title is a riff on the classic wedding phrase of "'till death do us part." Marking the feature directorial debut of actor Reed Arnold, this indie film recently premiered at a small festival where it won Best Director, along with other prizes at some other fests. Do Us Part is the story of Ryan, whose wedding day spirals out of control when Rose, his unrequited love and best friend in college, crashes the ceremony to come clean about her buried feelings – forcing Ryan to confront emotional baggage & unresolved tension from their past. But there's more going on when his best man gets involved, too! The wedding day comedy film stars Kelly Russo, Travis Laughlin, Reed Arnold, Laura Elizabeth Delhauer, and Ashley Renee Scott. This looks like a couple of friends got together & made a movie about love & relationships comedy – which might turn out to be entertaining. // Continue Reading ›

Literal High-Wire Mountain Survival Thriller 'Zip Wire' Official Trailer

"Give me the code!" "I'm not going to give it to you the people you work for." Signature Entertainment has unveiled the official trailer for an indie genre thriller titled Zip Wire, made by genre filmmaker Howard J. Ford (he also made Bone Keeper earlier this year). Zip Wire is premiering at FrightFest 2026 in London and then will hit VOD right after to watch at home. This looks like a fun complement to this year's sequel Fall 2: Deadpoint, also about hanging on a wire off the side of a mountain. Although this movie has a much more sneaky script similar to Cliffhanger – criminals want to steal some valuable lung cancer research from this woman and they strand her up in the mountains on an old zipline dangling 1500 ft. in the air. This is their plan to get the "code" to access it? Starring MyAnna Buring (from The Descent), with Joseph Millson, Saffron Burrows, Silvia Presente, and Michael Amariah. This looks a bit too ridiculous & cheesy to be any good, filled with all the usual that would never, ever really happen climbing failure tropes. Have fun. // Continue Reading ›

First Trailer for 'Chopin' Biopic Movie Starring Polish Actor Eryk Kulm

"Now, I have been resurrected." Rialto Distribution has revealed an official trailer for a film titled Chopin, a biopic story about the life and genius of musician Frédéric Chopin. You definitely know his name, but do you know his story? The talk of the town, the most romantic figure of decadent Parisian nights. When his lungs start bleeding, Chopin knows his days are numbered... Composing becomes his only obsession. The ticking clock rushes him to revolutionize music. The film is set mostly in Paris in 1835, right around the end of his life (he only made it to 39 years old). Renowned composer Frédéric Chopin navigates high society, performing concerts, teaching for income while battling illness. He composes masterpieces, attends parties, pursues romance amid aristocratic and royal circles. He was a superstar at the time. But it would only last so long. Starring Eryk Kulm as Chopin, with Joséphine de La Baume as George Sand, Victor Meutelet as Franz Liszt, Maja Ostaszewska, Karolina Gruszka, and Lambert Wilson as the King. Made on a grand scale with everything accurate to the time. This looks like Poland's version of Amadeus, showing how much of a rock star Chopin was, along with all the other controversies & challenges in his life. Including that he was very sick and could barely play anymore in the last few years of his young life. 🎹 Take a look below. // Continue Reading ›

Intense Trailer #2 for 'Onslaught' Sci-Fi Action Starring Adria Arjona

"Once they begin killing, they will not stop. They are the human equivalent of a heat-seeking missile." A24 has revealed a gnarly second trailer for the badass sci-fi action movie called Onslaught, hitting theaters in September just around the corner (also in IMAX). This is a throwback to The Guest - created by director Adam Wingard and writer Simon Barrett in 2014. Now 12 years later the duo has reteamed for new movie set in the same universe as that one. Described as pretty much like "Sarah Connor versus Jason Voorhees" which sounds like a good time (here's the first trailer). A mom in a trailer park tries to protect her family from a threat that escaped from a secret military facility. "Remember the character of the onslaught against us." Hit Man's breakout Adria Arjona stars as a kick ass Army sniper who must unleash hell to protect her young daughter when genetically engineered super soldiers break loose in the desert. Intense! With Arjona, this also stars Dan Stevens (also from The Guest), Eric Wareheim, Reginald VelJohnson, Michael Biehn, Alex Pereira, Drew Starkey, plus Rebecca Hall. This just looks like a damn good time! A sci-fi action remix with some brutally violent soldiers and a ready-to-fight-back heroine taking them on. Let's go. // Continue Reading ›
