Gus Van Sant unveils his latest film, a 1970’s crime drama with a darkly funny undertone.

Featuring captivating performances, Gus Van Sant’s latest recreates the strange, fascinating true story of the 1977 kidnapping that made aspiring Indianapolis entrepreneur Tony Kiritsis into an eccentric outlaw folk hero. Dead Man’s Wire resonates powerfully with present-day class resentments. It’s also darkly funny, wildly entertaining, and rife with appealing supporting characters.

Across five continents and seven of the world’s most brutal channels, Australian swimmer Mark Sowerby takes on the Oceans Seven, an ordeal as unforgiving as Everest, but in open water. No cage. No wetsuit. No escape. Just man against Mother Nature.

After a life-changing event leaves him struggling with uncertainty, coach Tim Denyer pushes Mark to turn anguish into purpose.

Over a decade of relentless pursuit, from the icy Irish Sea to the shark-patrolled waters of Hawaii, Mark pushes human endurance to its limits. What unfolds is not only a quest for survival but a profound journey of resilience and healing.

An edge-of-your-seat adventure into one man's fight to reclaim his life by taking on the world's most dangerous marathon swims.

Princess Pamina has been captured. Her mother, the Queen of the Night, tasks the young Prince Tamino with her daughter’s rescue.

Guided by a magic flute, they encounter monsters, villains, and a mysterious brotherhood of men – but help, it turns out, comes when you least expect it.

Mozart’s fantastical opera glitters in David McVicar’s enchanting production. A star cast including Julia Bullock as Pamina, Amitai Pati as Tamino, Huw Montague Rendall as Papageno, Kathryn Lewek as the Queen of the Night, and Soloman Howard as Sarastro, led by French conductor Marie Jacquot in her Covent Garden debut.

Mona Fastvold’s sublime film on revolutionary preacher Ann Lee is grounded by a metamorphic performance from Amanda Seyfried.

This epic, of grand scale and creative force, charts Lee’s impoverished childhood in Manchester to pre-revolutionary America, where her Shaker religion took root. Seyfried stuns alongside an impressive ensemble who shine in this richly textured world. Oscar winner Daniel Blumberg’s music, seamlessly navigates Lee’s story, which Fastvold (co-writer of The Brutalist) infuses with fervour and grace, bringing this incredible historical figure back into public view.

A happily engaged couple is put to the test when an unexpected turn sends their wedding week off the rails.

Starring Zendaya and Robert Pattinson

Soon after the Thompson family’s arrival in the countryside, the three children – Joe, Beth, and Fran – discover a magical tree and its extraordinary and eccentric residents, including Moonface, Silky, Dame Washalot, and Saucepan Man. At the top of the tree, they’re transported to spectacular and fantastical lands and, through the joys and challenges of their adventures, the Thompsons learn to reconnect and value each other for the first time in years.

Based on the Enid Blyton classic children’s story, the cast also includes British stars Lenny Henry, Jennifer Saunders, Michael Palin, Rebecca Ferguson, Mark Heap and Simon Russell-Beale.

Jim Jarmusch’s Venice Golden Lion-winning comedy navigates the sometimes tender, sometimes awkward interactions between the bohemian generation and their adult children.

A return to the interlinked stories and international panorama format of Night on Earth, Jarmusch’s drama features a series of stories that concern familial relationships marked by emotional detachment. An engaging character study whose connecting motifs subtly reveal themselves, it’s beautifully shot by Frederick Elmes and Yorick le Saux, and features a fine cast, including the director’s lucky charm, Tom Waits, along with Charlotte Rampling, Vicky Krieps and Indya Moore.

Raoul Peck channels the clarity and urgency of George Orwell’s prose into a gripping cinematic statement – elegant, forceful and uncompromising.

Narrated by Damian Lewis and shaped by Alexandra Strauss’s electric editing, Peck’s film lends Orwell’s prescient observations renewed urgency. His visually compelling direction, which blends layered narration and archival juxtapositions, finds Orwell’s words sharp and unsettling, echoing through a fractured present and becoming a clarion call for an examination of the mechanics of power, propaganda and systemic violence. It’s a timely work, infused with timeless critique.
