The trend carries on for Q3 with high octane movies perfect for a male audience coming thick and fast.
First up on 12 July, is Pacific Rim. Giant sea dwelling aliens have decided to try and make a power move for domination of Earth. Humankind’s response is to unleash skyscraper sized robots weighing in at 2,500 tonnes with some of the most awesome weaponry ever seen on screen.
Hugh Jackman returns to our screens in The Wolverine on 26 July. Wolverine is out of his depth in an unknown world as he faces his ultimate nemesis in a life-or-death battle that will leave him forever changed. Vulnerable for the first time and pushed to his physical and emotional limits, he confronts not only lethal samurai steel but also his inner struggle against his own immortality.
Continuing in the vein of the White House invasions theme for 2013, White House Down, releasing 6 September, will star Channing Tatum as a Washington cop touring the White House with his daughter, just as a paramilitary group attempts to seize control and kidnap the president.
The next offering from District 9 director, Neill Blomkamp, Elysium, will release 20 September. Starring Matt Damon and Jodie Foster, it will tell how humans have become segregated. The super-rich live in a state of paradise above the earth on a space station, while the rest of the population lives in squalor and poverty on the Earth’s surface. Damon’s character is forced to undertake a mission to try and enter Elysium, which may save his life, but also bring balance to the fragmented human race.
