A desperate fight for survival unfolds beneath the ocean’s surface in Whalefall, the gripping new thriller from 20th Century Studios.
The film stars Austin Abrams as Jay Gardiner, who sets out to recover his late father’s (Josh Brolin) remains when the unimaginable happens: he is swallowed by a massive sperm whale. Trapped inside the creature’s belly with only one hour of oxygen remaining, Jay realizes the hard-earned lessons his father imparted may be the key to his survival.
Directed by Brian Duffield, the film features a screenplay by Brian Duffield & Daniel Kraus and is based on the novel of the same name by Kraus. The cast also includes Elisabeth Shue, John Ortiz, Jane Levy, and Emily Rudd.
Everest: The Other Side
Release Date: October 30
Thousands of people have ascended Mount Everest from the southeast ridge in Nepal. But only five had ever summited from the more daunting direct North Face route from China.
The new documentary from Oscar-winning filmmakers (Free Solo) Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi and Jimmy Chin follows elite ski mountaineers Jim Morrison and Hilaree Nelson as they attempt one of the most dangerous climbs and ski descents ever attempted on Mount Everest.
Made for the IMAX screen, audiences will witness a history-making endeavor told through both an intimate human lens and the sweeping scale of a landmark achievement, all while detailing the determination, resilience, and personal stakes behind such an extraordinary feat.
Searchlight Pictures’ Wild Horse Nine
Release Date: November 6
Shortly before the 1973 Chilean coup, CIA agents Chris (John Malkovich) and Lee (Sam Rockwell) are dispatched from Santiago to Easter Island by their bureau chief, MJ (Steve Buscemi). Amongst the Island’s iconic statues, and as the longtime partners wrestle with their dark pasts and present conspiracies, Chris’s newfound bond with a pair of rebellious students (Mariana di Girolamo and Ailín Salas) threatens to send everyone’s trip to this remote paradise sideways.
The highly anticipated dramedy from Searchlight Pictures marks McDonagh’s third collaboration with the studio, following The Banshees of Inisherin, which was nominated for nine Oscars in 2023, including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Original Screenplay, and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, which won Oscars for Best Actress (Frances McDormand) and Best Supporting Actor (Sam Rockwell), in addition to five other nominations including Best Picture.
