Stop-motion animation studio Laika’s latest film, Wildwood, has been sixteen years in the making, and all its efforts have resulted in one of the studio’s most critically acclaimed movies yet. The fantasy adventure, about a teenage girl who travels into an enchanted forest in search of her abducted infant brother, features the voices of award-winning stars such as Angela Bassett, Carey Mulligan, and Jacob Tremblay.

3. You Can See Everything
Documenting the weeks leading up to the start of Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes’ 11-year prison sentence, Holmes and her partner, Billy Evans, invite documentarians Lance Oppenheim and Nathan Fielder into their home, giving them full access to their lives. What begins as an in-depth look into the life of a convicted felon turns into a meta-documentary about what is authentic and what is merely a performance.

4. The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping
Based on Suzanne Collins’ 2025 novel of the same name, the latest film in The Hunger Games franchise takes place 24 years before Katniss ever sets foot in the arena. The story instead focuses on a young Haymitch Abernathy (Joseph Zada, taking on the role originally played by Woody Harrelson) and the year he is chosen as a tribute for the 50th Hunger Games, a special event that doubles the number of contestants forced to fight to the death.

The first television series set in the Blade Runner universe, Blade Runner 2099 introduces a world where an uprising has shifted the balance of power in Los Angeles.
