Krampus’s Michael Dougherty behind the wheel.

in a creature-related kidnap situation. Returning
cast include Ken Watanabe and Sally Hawkins.- Men In Black

Liam Neeson, Emma Thompson
Director: F Gary Gray
Released: 14 June 2019
We don’t think anyone needs to know more
than Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson star
as London-based Men In Black partners to get
onboard for this, but we’re going to say more
anyway. The currently-untitled MIB fi lm is set to
be a sequel, with Iron Man’s Matt Holloway and
Art Marcum writing the script, and Liam Neeson,
Rebecca Ferguson and the always marvellous
Emma Thompson are also starring.- Terminator 6

Cast: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Mackenzie
Davis, Linda Hamilton, Natalia Reyes
Not satisfi ed with Terminator: Genisys
(who was?), producer and Terminator creator
James Cameron is back at it again, hoping
to right all the wrongs with the currently
untitled sixth fi lm. Arnold Schwarzenegger
and Linda Hamilton are back as T-800 and
Sarah Connor respectively, while Mackenzie
Davis and Gabriel Luna are machines with
uncertain allegiances.
How to build a Terminator sequel
DO DON’T
DO bring back old cast membersDO decide whether the fi lm
is a reboot or a sequel before
you startDO take inspiration from T2DO NOT spell the title wrong just
for the sake of itDO NOT endlessly reference
and replay events of the fi rst two
moviesDO NOT get ahead of yourself
and plan sequels and TV spin-offs
before the fi lm is released
