“How would you like your fans to think of you?”
“Just the music,” Jeff Buckley replies. In the first haunting moments of It’s Never Over, Jeff Buckley, that answer becomes both mission statement and epitaph.
Magnolia Pictures has released the official trailer for It’s Never Over, Jeff Buckley, the long-awaited documentary from Academy Award-nominated director Amy Berg. The film examines the life, myth, and music of the late singer-songwriter whose cult following has only grown since his untimely death in 1997.
Combining never-before-seen archival footage with intimate interviews from those closest to Buckley—including his mother Mary Guibert, former partners Rebecca Moore and Joan Wasser, and collaborators like Aimee Mann—the film paints a portrait of an artist who never quite fit into the mold of his era.
The trailer interweaves clips of Buckley’s most electrifying performances with his self-effacing reflections on fame, impermanence, and artistic identity. “I’m not going to last that long,” he says in a chilling archival moment. Another interview question—“Where do you see yourself in ten years?”—hangs in the air unanswered, a quiet acknowledgement of what was never to be.
Having premiered at Sundance earlier this year, the documentary opens in theaters August 8. Berg, whose previous work includes Janis: Little Girl Blue and Deliver Us from Evil, said making a Jeff Buckley film had long been a personal dream:
“It’s been on my bucket list since I made my first film in 2006. And maybe, since I first heard Grace in 1994. It changed my life forever. It literally became the ‘tear that hangs inside my soul forever.’”
Critics who caught the film at Sundance described it as “a stirring if circumscribed tribute,” with The Hollywood Reporter noting its “heartfelt” approach to a subject too often shrouded in myth.
Whether you’re a lifelong fan or discovering Buckley for the first time, It’s Never Over promises an emotional meditation on the fragility of genius and the timelessness of great music.
Love, ambition, and tradition collide in Netflix’s romantic drama My Oxford Year, where a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity meets a life-changing decision.
Netflix has unveiled the first official trailer for My Oxford Year, the adaptation of Julia Whelan’s bestselling novel, bringing an emotionally rich story of ambition, romance, and self-discovery to the screen. Starring Ella Hunt as Anna Alcott, a rising political star from the U.S. who earns a coveted Rhodes Scholarship, the film follows her journey across the Atlantic to Oxford University—only to find more than she bargained for.
Set against the dreamy backdrop of gothic spires and candlelit libraries, Anna’s carefully mapped-out future is disrupted when she meets Jamie Davenport (played by Leo Woodall), a charming and elusive local with secrets of his own. Their whirlwind romance is laced with wit, emotional candor, and a deeper exploration of what it means to live fully—even if briefly.
Directed by So Yong Kim (Lovesong, Treeless Mountain), My Oxford Year blends heartfelt drama with lush visual storytelling. The trailer teases tearful phone calls, long walks through misty courtyards, and the emotional stakes of balancing ambition with vulnerability. As Anna is forced to choose between a future she’s always dreamed of and a present she never expected, My Oxford Year promises to be a tearjerker in the vein of Me Before You or One Day.
The film premieres globally on Netflix this fall.
Liam Neeson trades gravitas for slapstick in this absurdist reboot of The Naked Gun, promising chaotic gags and deadpan chaos for a new generation.
Paramount Pictures has dropped the first official trailer for The Naked Gun, a reimagining of the beloved Zucker-Abrahams-Zucker comedy series—this time with Liam Neeson stepping into the gumshoes of bumbling detective Frank Drebin. Directed by Akiva Schaffer (Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping), the 2025 update leans hard into the original’s legacy of ridiculous set pieces, deadpan deliveries, and sight gags that fly faster than bullets.
Pamela Anderson co-stars as Vicki, a sultry presence caught in Drebin’s mess of mishaps, while a supporting cast filled with comedy veterans and fresh faces rounds out the ensemble. The trailer opens with a dramatic voiceover and a montage of crime-fighting tropes, only to derail into toilet humor, pratfalls, and Neeson’s hilariously dry take on physical comedy. He may be best known for brooding thrillers, but here, Neeson’s straight-faced commitment to chaos makes him an unexpectedly perfect Drebin.
With slick visuals, high-budget action gags, and an updated tone that nods to everything from Airplane! to Brooklyn Nine-Nine, The Naked Gun reboot aims to revive the spoof genre with sharp production and even sharper silliness. It hits theaters later this year, just in time to remind audiences that comedy can still be loud, dumb, and deliriously fun.
Alex Ross Perry’s VIDEOHEAVEN is a hypnotic essay film tracing the rise and cultural imprint of video rental stores—narrated by Maya Hawke.
Cinema Conservancy has unveiled the first trailer for VIDEOHEAVEN, a new documentary essay directed by indie auteur Alex Ross Perry (Her Smell, Listen Up Philip) and narrated by Maya Hawke. The film is a kaleidoscopic journey through the birth, boom, and psychological hold of the video rental store era—stitched together from hundreds of archival sources, including old TV commercials, VHS covers, in-store footage, and clips from blockbuster films. Edited by Clyde Folley, VIDEOHEAVEN turns nostalgia into narrative, exploring how these once-ubiquitous spaces shaped moviegoing, taste, and the analog ritual of discovery.
More than just a look back, Perry’s film interrogates the emotional and cultural residue of the rental boom—its promise of choice, its capitalist contradictions, and its lingering grip on generations of cinephiles. Hawke’s narration offers a dreamy, philosophical lens on an American phenomenon that now exists mostly in memory. At once melancholic and exuberant, VIDEOHEAVEN isn’t about the death of physical media—it’s about the life it once gave us.

Brad Pitt hits the track in the making of F1: The Movie, a pulse-pounding look inside the speed, precision, and pressure of Formula 1 racing.
Apple TV+ has released a new behind-the-scenes video for F1: The Movie, spotlighting the extraordinary effort behind this year’s most ambitious racing drama. Titled “75 Live,” the featurette gives fans an inside look at how director Joseph Kosinski (Top Gun: Maverick) and producer Jerry Bruckheimer brought real Formula 1 action to life—starring Brad Pitt and Damson Idris.
Filmed during actual Grand Prix weekends and in collaboration with F1 teams, the project is a landmark fusion of live racing and scripted drama. The crew built a fictional team—APXGP—that competes alongside real racers, with Pitt playing a retired driver returning for one last shot at the grid. Idris plays his young teammate, with Lewis Hamilton onboard as a producer to ensure authenticity.
The “75 Live” footage reveals never-before-seen shots of Pitt in full racing gear, high-speed track sequences, and pit lane logistics—all designed to make audiences feel like they’re in the cockpit.

The opening minutes of Superman (2025) reveal a grounded, emotionally resonant Clark Kent—establishing the film’s heart before it takes flight.
The first official clip from Superman (2025) has arrived, offering fans their initial full-scene glimpse into James Gunn’s highly anticipated DC Universe reboot. The clip, which features David Corenswet as Clark Kent, is a quiet, contemplative moment—marking a tonal shift from previous Superman films. Set in Smallville, the scene opens with Clark walking alone through the golden Kansas fields before heading into Metropolis, newspaper in hand.
Rather than starting with a superpowered spectacle, Gunn chooses restraint, leaning into warmth, nostalgia, and Americana. With gentle lens flares, slow dolly shots, and natural light, the cinematography underscores the story’s emotional weight. Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan) is teased through a voiceover at the Daily Planet, while John Murphy’s subtle score gives the moment a mythic resonance without overwhelming the human element.
This is Superman as Gunn promised—noble, introspective, and rooted in identity rather than invincibility. If the opening scene is any indication, Superman (2025) may succeed in marrying the emotional clarity of Man of Steel with the sincerity and optimism fans have long hoped to see restored.
The new featurette for Superman (2025) showcases how James Gunn’s reboot was crafted with IMAX in mind—promising a superhero epic shot for the biggest screen possible.
Warner Bros. has released a behind-the-scenes look at Superman (2025) titled “Filmed for IMAX®,” giving fans their most immersive peek yet at the scale and ambition behind James Gunn’s DC Universe relaunch. Designed to be experienced in full IMAX 1.90:1 aspect ratio, the footage features sweeping set pieces, towering practical builds, and first glimpses of Superman in flight across expansive American landscapes.
Director James Gunn narrates portions of the video, underscoring his commitment to grounding the film’s spectacle in emotion and character. “We didn’t just want the action to be big,” Gunn says, “we wanted it to feel big—to mean something.” The featurette includes production shots of David Corenswet suited up as Superman, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, hinting at the dynamic interplay between hero, journalist, and villain that defines the heart of the film.
The IMAX footage emphasizes natural lighting, large-scale sets, and vivid contrast between Clark Kent’s Kansas roots and the grandeur of his Kryptonian heritage. From cornfields to craters, and newsroom interiors to planetary transmissions, every detail feels constructed to immerse audiences in both myth and intimacy.
The clip ends with Gunn and the crew watching playback on towering IMAX monitors, visibly proud of the visual depth they’re delivering. It’s clear Superman is not just a film—it’s an event calibrated for maximum theatrical impact.
A haunting new clip from Superman (2025) delves into the mythic scale of Kal-El’s origin, teasing the emotional weight of his destiny.
In the latest official clip from James Gunn’s Superman, titled “Knowledge Is Worth Many Sacrifices,” the film pivots away from the grounded realism of its previous teasers to explore Krypton’s haunting legacy. Through a holographic message or recovered memory, Kal-El (David Corenswet) receives a solemn transmission from a Kryptonian elder—likely Jor-El—delivering a poetic warning about sacrifice, heritage, and the cost of wisdom.
Visually drenched in solemn light and alien iconography, the clip leans into the grandeur of Superman’s origins, contrasting the emotional intimacy of Clark Kent’s Earth-bound life with the epic magnitude of his galactic lineage. Corenswet’s silent performance—anchored in awe and grief—emphasizes the film’s dual emotional register: intimate character drama and mythological sci-fi.
As composer John Murphy’s score swells beneath the narration, the scene echoes the classic tones of Man of Steel and Superman: The Movie, while signaling a more philosophical and emotionally complex approach to the Superman mythos. It’s a stirring look at what’s shaping up to be a deeply personal yet universally resonant superhero epic.
James Gunn’s Superman continues to tease its character-driven core with a tense, grounded exchange from the latest official clip.
A new clip from Superman (2025), titled “Keep An Eye On Him,” has been released, offering a sharp, dialogue-heavy moment that underscores the film’s tonal balance between human stakes and heroic mythology. The scene centers on Clark Kent (David Corenswet) navigating his dual identity while under the wary gaze of law enforcement and federal authorities—hinting at larger tensions between Superman and the institutions meant to protect the world.
Set in a drab government corridor, the clip favors subtle tension over spectacle. Characters exchange loaded glances and clipped dialogue, suggesting that Superman’s arrival hasn’t unified the world—it’s split it. Corenswet’s performance exudes quiet intensity, reinforcing James Gunn’s commitment to portraying Kal-El as both alien and painfully human.
This brief but effective scene continues to support what early looks have promised: a Superman story that blends idealism with realism, and action with internal conflict. With its July 2025 release date drawing closer, anticipation is soaring for the first chapter in DC Studios’ new cinematic universe.
Marvel Studios offers a grounded and intimate preview of its highly anticipated reboot with a quiet family moment around the dinner table.
Marvel Studios has released the first official clip from The Fantastic Four: First Steps, offering fans an unexpected look into the emotional core of the upcoming reboot. Titled “Sunday Dinner,” the scene finds the newly formed team—Reed Richards (Pedro Pascal), Sue Storm (Vanessa Kirby), Johnny Storm (Joseph Quinn), and Ben Grimm (Ebon Moss-Bachrach)—sharing a rare moment of calm amid the chaos of their evolving powers and responsibilities.
Set against the backdrop of a quiet evening in the Baxter Building, the clip is more intimate than action-packed, centering on familial chemistry and subtle character beats. Pascal’s Reed anchors the scene with contemplative authority, while Kirby’s Sue provides warmth and resolve. Johnny’s irreverence and Ben’s dry wit round out the dynamic, reminding viewers that this isn’t just a superhero squad—it’s a makeshift family learning to navigate their new reality.
The subdued tone suggests director Matt Shakman (WandaVision) is leaning into emotional storytelling and character development, promising a version of the Fantastic Four that prioritizes interpersonal stakes alongside cosmic spectacle. The film hits theaters July 25, with expectations sky-high for this long-awaited MCU entry.
Mike Flanagan adapts Stephen King’s experimental novella with surprising warmth in this first official scene.
From acclaimed horror filmmaker Mike Flanagan (The Haunting of Hill House, Doctor Sleep) comes an emotional new adaptation of Stephen King’s The Life of Chuck, starring Tom Hiddleston and Mark Hamill.

The scene, set in an eerie yet oddly tender world, showcases Flanagan’s ability to infuse metaphysical themes with human intimacy.
The adaptation stitches together three seemingly disparate vignettes that eventually coalesce into a portrait of life, death, and cosmic significance. With evocative cinematography, melancholic undertones, and performances that straddle surrealism and sincerity, this clip gives audiences an early taste of a film that promises to be one of the most ambitious King adaptations to date.
