As the weather gets worse and the glorious summer evenings fade away, there’s plenty of films to entice you into the cosy warmth of the cinema. From music docs to long-awaited Hollywood flicks and everything in between, there’s a lot to be excited about on the big screen.
Supersonic
Release date: October 2
Who’s in it: The mouthiest siblings around, Liam and Noel, and their band
Why it’s going to be brilliant: It’s directed by Asif Kapadia, who was behind the moving, award-winning Amy. And it’s a film about Oasis’ early years so there’ll be plenty of drama and great insight into the start of one of Britain’s biggest bands.
My Scientology Movie
Release date: October 7
Who’s in it: Louis Theroux
Why it’s going to be brilliant: The investigative documentary-maker goes in on the Church Of Scientology, the strange religion founded by L. Ron Hubbard in 1954. The trailer suggests there’s going to be a lot of confrontation and a lot of weirdness.
Snowden
Release date: October 15
Who’s in it:
Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Shailene Woodley, Nicolas Cage
Why it’s going to be brilliant: Whistleblower Edward Snowden is currently living under asylum in Russia after leaking classified information from the NSA to the press three years ago. This film, directed by Oliver Stone, gives an in-depth account of Snowden and his transgression against his country.
Paterson
Release date: November 25
Who’s in it: Adam Driver, Golshifteh Farahani
Why it’s going to be brilliant: Girls actor Adam Driver has proven himself to be one of the best new talents in acting. Paterson follows him over the course of a week as a bus driver and part-time poet in New Jersey, and his relationship with his ambitious wife.
Gimme Danger
Release date: November 25
Who’s in it: Iggy Pop, The Stooges
Why it’s going to be brilliant: It’s directed by Jim Jarmusch so it’s already bound to be great. Then you’ve got the fact it tells the story of one of the best rock’n’roll icons in history – one who has truly lived. It’d be hard to mess this one up.
