Production on Justice
League took a tragic turn when Zach Synder had to step down and thus left the film in Joss Whedon’s capable hands (having directed The
Avengers). The DC franchise did need a boost, which it received with Wonder
Woman, and the only likely source it would come from would be Zach Synder whose
cut of Batman vs Superman was far better received than the theatrical cut so it
was sad, however understandable, to see Zach Synder leave the project.

Spiderman: Homecoming
Following events in Civil War, where
Spiderman (Tom Holland) stole Captain America’s (Chris Evans) shield, Peter
Parker is trying to adjust to life as a “normal” teenager. Peter finds this
difficult as he desperately waits for a call from Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr)
that will be the starting point of his career in The Avengers. Tony feels he is
not quite ready and implores Peter to keep out of trouble, but when Peter
discovers a group of criminals, led by Michael Keaton’s Adrian Toomes, selling
alien tech weapons he can’t help but get stuck in the action.

Thor
Of late Marvel and Disney have been
giving opportunities to up and coming directors to have a crack at the big time.
Shane Black was given Iron Man 3, the Russo brothers were given Captain
America: Winter Soldier (which would lead to Captain America: Civil War) and
James Gunn was given both Guardians of the Galaxy movies. Due to the success of
What we do in the Shadows and Hunt for the Wilderpeople, Kiwi director Taika
Waititi was the next director given the chance to play with a big budget.

Happy Death Day
Theresa "Tree" Gelbman (Jessica Rothe) dreads her
birthday because it reminds her of her mother, (who shares the same birthday)
who died three years previously. Her misery is further compounded when she is
killed by a baby face mask wearing killer. However, Theresa “wakes up” again and
quickly realises that the events of the day are the exact same as the one
before. To break free from this never ending curse, Theresa must find a way to
break it and perhaps finding the killer’s identity may do just that.
