Film

The Queen’s Corgi

Due out Thursday August 1

From the writers of Gnomeo & Juliet (don’t

worry, it gets better), comes this sassy story

about Rex (voiced by Jack Whitehall), a corgi

owned by Queen Elizabeth II (Julie Walters),

who Ànds himself locked out of the palace and

off on an adventure. The plot – about making

unlikely friends and working together to get

back into the palace – is for kids, but many of

the gags are for the parents escorting them

to the cinema. Look out for Jon Culshaw’s

short, sweet and smarmy turn as a visiting

Donald Trump, and keep an ear out for Ray

Winstone’s gravelly tones as muscled pit bull

terrier Tyson.

Out this August

The Angry Birds Movie 2

Due out Thursday August 8

Three years on from the release of The

Angry Birds Movie, Jason Sudeikis is back

as Groucho-browed Red. Though still odds

with King Mudbeard and the Bad Piggies,

when a new foe appears on the horizon the

warring groups decide to work together for

the survival of both tribes. Josh Gad, Danny

McBride, Bill Hader and Peter Dinklage all

return to voice characters in the Àlm, while

newcomers include rapper Nicki Minaj as bird

Pinky and AwkwaÀna as pig Courtney. The Àrst

Angry Birds Àlm became the second highest-

grossing video game Àlm of all time behind

Warcraft. Will their return top it...?

Dora and The Lost City of Gold

Due out Thursday August 15

The Àrst live-action Àlm version of

Nickelodeon’s television series Dora the

Explorer, Isabela Moner (Instant Family) plays

the fearlessly adventurous titular character.

But having spent most of her life in the jungle,

little there could have prepared her for the

most daunting place of them all – high school.

But it’s not long before she’s out from behind

a desk and leading a ragtag band of explorers

out to save her parents and solve an ancient

Incan mystery. (And yes, there’s monkey.

Voiced by Danny Trejo.) Michael Peña (Crash)

and Eva Longoria (Desperate Housewives)

star as Dora’s parents.

Jon Culshaw as Trump, Danny Trejo as a monkey and Nicki Minaj

as a bright pink bird. Here’s what’s hitting cinemas
