This summer, from the biggest animated franchise in history, comes the untold story of a young boys’ dream to become the world’s greatest villain. A fanboy of the supervillain group known as the Vicious 6, our hero Gru hatches a plan to become evil enough to join them. Luckily, he gets some mayhem-making backup from his loyal followers, the Minions, who deploy all their skills to help Gru build the first lair, experiment with the first weapons and pull off the first evil plans.
Thor: Love and Thunder
8 July 2022
Surprisingly with the 4th instalment of Marvel’s standalone Thor series due out in July, the studio’s promo team has been unusually quiet about their upcoming release. But what we do know is Thor: Love and Thunder is set in the aftermath of Ragnarok and brings Thor face to face with a new adversary Gorr, the God Butcher. Played by Christian Bale, if Gorr, wielding the Necrosword, a symbiote weapon that has slain a billion gods, is to be defeated then the combined strength of Thor, Valkyrie and some unexpected allies will be tested to the max.
