In this official behind-the-scenes breakdown, Tom Cruise and director Christopher McQuarrie revisit some of their most iconic collaborations, including Mission: Impossible, Jack Reacher, and Edge of Tomorrow. The video offers a candid and technical look into the creative process behind some of the most influential action films of the last two decades.

The conversation spans Cruise’s obsession with practical effects, the evolution of Ethan Hunt, the underrated grit of Jack Reacher, and the genre-bending brilliance of Edge of Tomorrow. McQuarrie dissects the challenges of staging complex sequences while preserving emotional stakes, while Cruise emphasizes rhythm, trust, and the pursuit of on-screen authenticity.

More than a promo, this is a masterclass. Whether you’re a filmmaker, a franchise fan, or just curious about what makes Tom Cruise run—this video is essential viewing.

In the official clip titled “Out Of Bullets”, Ballerina star Ana de Armas proves she’s more than ready to inherit the John Wick legacy. Set in the neon-lit, blood-soaked underworld fans know well, the scene finds her character cornered, disarmed, and outgunned—until she turns the room itself into a weapon.

Graceful but lethal, the choreography delivers a fresh spin on the franchise’s signature gun-fu style. De Armas moves with balletic precision and cold determination, elevating every move into a spectacle of survival. The clip teases the film’s blend of stylized violence and emotional grit, with a character driven not by revenge—but necessity.

Directed by Len Wiseman and set between the events of John Wick: Chapter 3 and Chapter 4, Ballerina expands the Wick universe with a female lead who moves like a dancer but strikes like an assassin. This is just a taste of the carnage to come.

In the official promo for Friendship, A24 presents a soft-glow montage of the film’s emotional core—highlighting fleeting connections and deep undercurrents that define its quiet power. The clip doesn’t give away plot points. Instead, it leans into atmosphere: long-held stares, subtle smiles, the tension of words unsaid.

Told through fragments and feelings, the promo sets a tone of aching nostalgia and understated vulnerability. Set to a haunting instrumental track, it evokes the work of Sofia Coppola and Andrew Haigh—evocative, elliptical, emotionally resonant.

The characters may barely speak, but the message is clear: Friendship is about everything in between. The clip lingers where most trailers cut—on stillness, on breath, on the moment just before someone leaves. It’s art-house marketing at its finest.

In this lighthearted official promo for Materialists, stars Dakota Johnson, Pedro Pascal, and Chris Evans challenge each other to a rapid-fire game of “Guess the Romance Movie Line.” From Notting Hill to The Notebook, the trio relives some of cinema’s most swoon-worthy quotes while revealing their own rom-com instincts—and occasional blanks.

Set against a candy-colored backdrop that mirrors the film’s luxe-meets-love aesthetic, the clip teases not just chemistry between the actors but the tongue-in-cheek tone of the film itself. Johnson and Pascal are effortlessly funny, Evans plays it cool, and the entire interaction radiates star power and playful intimacy.

Part press junket, part viral-ready content, this promo doesn’t just sell the movie—it sells the vibe. If Materialists is about the high-gloss messiness of modern romance, this is the perfect sneak peek into its heart.

The official clip from Sentimental Value offers an early look at what promises to be one of the year’s most intimate and affecting dramas. The film centers on a fractured family reunited by loss—and forced to navigate the terrain of memory, resentment, and reconciliation.

In this moment, a quiet kitchen exchange between two siblings swells with unresolved history. The performances are taut, the dialogue restrained, and the camera lingers just long enough to let discomfort rise. There’s a tension in what’s said—and what isn’t—that evokes the emotional intensity of films like Manchester by the Sea and The Savages.

Directed with a soft, observational lens, Sentimental Value appears to be less about plot than presence. A film that asks its characters—and audience—not to move on, but to move through.

In this latest installment of Closet Picks, Natasha Lyonne opens up her wardrobe and her worldview in equal measure. Part fashion haul, part existential monologue, the Poker Face and Russian Doll star curates a lineup of personal pieces that are equal parts “studio lot grandma” and “downtown art dealer who may or may not time travel.”

Lyonne, known for her gravel-voiced delivery and unmatched taste in oddball cool, brings out statement coats, archival eyewear, and a truly chaotic array of footwear, narrating each selection with that signature mix of sarcasm and sincerity. Between references to Patti Smith, vintage Issey Miyake, and “weird aunt in a Bergman film,” the video is as much about attitude as it is about aesthetics.

This isn’t just celebrity styling—it’s character study through clothing. And in a sea of trend-chasing fashion content, Lyonne reminds us that true style is the one thing you can’t fake.

In the latest official clip titled “It’s Coming Right At Us”, Marvel Studios offers a high-stakes peek at Thunderbolts—or, as stylized, T̶h̶u̶n̶d̶e̶r̶b̶o̶l̶t̶s̶—the film being rebranded by fans and insiders alike as The New Avengers. The footage drops us straight into the chaos: a helicopter spiraling, an impossible enemy closing in, and a team of deeply flawed antiheroes realizing just how over their heads they really are.

Sebastian Stan’s Bucky Barnes leads the charge alongside Florence Pugh’s Yelena Belova, David Harbour’s Red Guardian, and Wyatt Russell’s U.S. Agent. As the team argues over tactics while under fire, the clip teases not only Marvel’s signature humor but a darker, more grounded tone reminiscent of The Winter Soldier and Rogue One.

Pitched as Marvel’s messiest team-up yet, Thunderbolts looks to challenge the MCU formula—less shiny suits, more moral gray. And if this clip is any indication, the stakes are going to be real, brutal, and personal.

In The World – the official featurette for The Phoenician Scheme – director Wes Anderson, along with stars Saoirse Ronan, Willem Dafoe, and Edward Norton, offer a rare glimpse into the film’s layered production design and surreal geopolitical satire.

Set within an imagined Mediterranean nation teetering between bureaucracy and breakdown, Anderson crafts a story that feels simultaneously antique and terrifyingly current. The featurette walks viewers through the film’s miniature dioramas, intricate sets, and period-costume politics, all rendered in Anderson’s signature visual grammar: symmetrical framing, retro typography, and understated hysteria.

From the Ministry of Calculation to the rooftop gardens of The Grand Archive, every environment is imbued with allegory. As Ronan describes, “It’s not just a place. It’s a system.” Meanwhile, Dafoe and Norton discuss the tension beneath the whimsy—how comedy and control clash in a world ruled by logic and legacy.

At just over two minutes, the video offers a window into the thematic architecture behind the film—a narrative maze where algorithms, nationalism, and identity converge.

In this edition of Criterion’s beloved Closet Picks series, BAFTA-winning actor Aimee Lou Wood curates a personal lineup from the shelves of the Criterion Collection. With infectious warmth and wry insight, Wood walks us through titles that have inspired her—from slapstick comedies and auteur deep cuts to stories that challenged her perspective as both viewer and performer.

As she shares anecdotes about watching films like The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie and Grey Gardens, Wood speaks with the reverence of a cinephile and the charm of a natural-born storyteller. The selections offer a revealing glimpse into the inner world of one of Britain’s most exciting young actors.

Whether she’s fangirling over classic screwball heroines or analyzing the emotional architecture of European dramas, this first-look featurette proves that Wood isn’t just a great performer—she’s a thoughtful curator of cinema itself.

In this immersive behind-the-scenes featurette, Paramount Pictures highlights one of the wildest visual techniques in Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning: the Snorri rig. Attached directly to Tom Cruise’s body during high-intensity action scenes, this custom camera setup captures the world from Ethan Hunt’s exact point of view—tilting, spinning, and jolting with every movement.

Director Christopher McQuarrie and DP Fraser Taggart discuss the rig’s origins, its creative intent, and the technical challenges of filming while Cruise dangles off cliffs, dodges explosions, and fights mid-sprint. Cruise, ever the adrenaline-fueled auteur, embraces the rig’s disorienting realism as a way to bring audiences deeper into the film’s most nerve-shredding moments.

It’s an approach that doesn’t just document stunts—it transforms them into subjective, surreal experiences. With The Final Reckoning, Mission: Impossible continues to evolve the language of blockbuster cinema, one daring shot at a time.

In this exclusive featurette, Marvel Studios takes fans inside one of Thunderbolts’ most mysterious and talked-about set pieces: the Void Space. Designed to test the limits of the film’s anti-heroes, the Void Space is more than just a location—it’s a surreal psychological gauntlet that fractures identity, memory, and trust.

Director Jake Schreier and production designer Ethan Tobman break down the origins of the Void, while cast members Florence Pugh, Wyatt Russell, and Sebastian Stan share what it was like to act in such a disorienting and emotionally charged space. The BTS footage showcases immersive LED volumes, minimalistic set builds, and haunting in-camera effects that helped create one of the MCU’s boldest visual experiments to date.

As Marvel moves into darker narrative territory, this look behind the Void offers a glimpse into a creative evolution—and a reminder that even in a superhero movie, space itself can be the enemy.

In Materialists, writer-director Celine Song (Past Lives) delves into the transactional nature of modern relationships, setting her new film amidst the elite of Manhattan’s dating and wealth scenes. The story follows a matchmaker—played by Dakota Johnson—whose personal and professional lives blur as she finds herself caught between passion, ambition, and the emotional cost of connection.

Co-starring Pedro Pascal and Chris Evans, the film unfolds in luxury townhomes, downtown art galleries, and discreet restaurants where romance is as curated as a portfolio. Song’s touch remains deeply human, but here it’s delivered with a sharper wit and a playful commentary on status and seduction.

This first look promises a film as emotionally intelligent as it is visually striking, where intimacy is currency and no connection is without its cost.
