Focus Features also had a part of the presentment where they usher off footage from four movies include Last Night in Soho and The Northman .
After the Universal part of the display ended , Focus also took to the stage . Much like Universal , Focus Features actually play someone out to talk about their movie in person , which was a squeamish thing to see . It was another round talent precede their movies instead of anyone being here , but that was pretty much what we all expected from this CinemaCon . The thing that was surprising was the lack of movies that were in attendance . Focus prefer to , well , focus on four movies even though they have nine come out between now and April 2022 . The big ones that were lose were three movies from 2021 , includingThe Card Counter , Blue Bayou , andWolf . They were n’t exactly given a ton of time , but leave out 50 % of your 2021 slate just seemed like an funny choice .
The first movie Focus decided to spotlight wasLast Night in Sohowhich has been at the top of my personal most forebode for a longsighted metre now . We know almost nothing about the movie , but the new trailer that Focus showed off a ton of Modern footage and gave us a look at the movie ’s actual secret plan . It is abitspoiler - y , so if you are looking to stay whole spare of anything about this movie , go ahead and vamoose to the paragraph beyond the image . Anyway , the trailer has a much unlike vibration from the first trailer . That one was much more horror moving picture , and now we ’re in something a little different . We find out in this trailer that Sandie , the girl that Ellie is going back to and seeing her life unfold , is actually dead . She was murdered by her lover , Jack , and Ellie is essay to work out the cause in the present because Jack is still alive . It ’s a pretty bonkers idea , but there is a chance that there is even more going on here that has n’t been revealed in trailers . Put this movie instantly in front of my middle straightaway , but we have to wait until October 29th .
Next , we have the new pic byKenneth Branagh . During the scuttle dialogue about this moving picture , he sound out that this was the most personal motion picture that he has ever done , and that is always promising to take heed . Focus omit the movie ’s first lagger , and it is bring out that it is going to be in black and white , which is always awesome to see . The movie is a diachronic drama that tells the story of a untried boy growing up in Belfast in 1960 ’s Northern Ireland . Specifically , it ’s 1969 Northern Ireland when the wow are take place . smuggled and white is such an underutilized feature movie , and it truly takes a master to make them wait good . This one has an excellent cast lie ofJudi Dench , Caitriona Balfe , Jamie Dornan , Ciarán Hinds , and Branagh specifically state the performance by the youngJude Hill , who play the young son , is something to see . This is an awards competition for certain , and we ’ll see more of it before its November 12th release appointment .
The matter that storm the room was that Focus discover some very early footage fromThe Northman , the new film fromRobert Eggers , which is n’t even opening until April 8th of next year . As Focus tell us , the footage we got was unfinished footage since they are still actively shooting in Iceland . This pic features a knock - up casting includingAlexander Skarsgård , Nicole Kidman , Anya Taylor - Joy , Björk , Ralph Ineson , Ethan Hawke , andWillem Dafoe . The footage see brutal and exactly sharp and a footling on the weird side because this is Eggers like , number on . I do n’t want to describe too much item because the footage was manifestly so bare , but if that was unfinished , this movie will be perfectly amazing .
Finally , Focus closed out the night with a very short teaser , and the title disclose for the nextDownton Abbeymovie , which is style , Downton Abbey : A New Era . There appeared to be some variety of traveling going on ? I have never visit a exclusive episode of this show or the last movie , but if this is your affair , therelease dateis March 18 , 2022 .
A new era begin . The total Downton cast is back for#DowntonAbbey : A New Era , with Hugh Dancy , Laura Haddock , Nathalie Baye and Dominic West joining . See the film only in theaters March 18 , 2022.pic.twitter.com/3XZPdJg08U
