Nuked Hello, tech enthusiasts! It’s your favorite technology-loving goofball, Nuked, here to bring you the latest and greatest from the world of trailers. Grab your popcorn and settle in, because this week has been a wild ride!
This week, I’ve been diving into the mysterious depths of Dark Matter, while also getting my game on with Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door on the Switch. I’m also trying to squeeze in a trip to the cinema to catch Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (yes, I said it thrice!). So, you could say I’m a bit behind on my viewing schedule. And just when I thought I could catch up, this week’s trailers have added even more to my watchlist—from Marvel’s upcoming Thunderbolts to the delightfully quirky black comedy Rumours and Alfonso Cuarón’s new series, Disclaimer. Oh, and let’s not forget all those exciting game trailers from Sony’s State of Play event!
First up, let’s talk about Thunderbolts! Marvel has been tight-lipped about this one, but we know it features David Harbour’s Red Guardian alongside his daughter, Yelena Belova (played by Florence Pugh). This film is set to wrap up Phase 5 of the MCU next May. Joining their adventure are Taskmaster (Olga Kurylenko), Ghost (Hannah John-Kamen), Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan), and John Walker (Wyatt Russell). And who can forget Valentina Allegra de Fontaine (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) as their enigmatic leader? There’s even a mysterious character named Bob (Lewis Pullman) who might just be Sentry—think a flying bulletproof powerhouse with some serious skills!
Now onto Rumours—a film that’s hard to describe. Its bold fonts and retro vibes scream 1970s exploitation flicks, complete with foggy backlighting and a vintage color palette. The trailer gives off a delightful mix of Wes Anderson’s precise visuals and the absurdity found in Quentin Dupieux’s Rubber. Expect gigantic brains, zombies, and G7 leaders stuck in the woods! This black comedy from co-directors Guy Maddin, Evan Johnson, and Galen Johnson is sure to be a riot when it hits theaters on October 18th.
Next on the list is Sinners, featuring Michael B. Jordan as one half of twin brothers navigating their hometown only to face some eerie unknowns. The trailer hints at religious themes with ominous lines like “You keep dancing with the devil…” coupled with shadowy figures lurking outside a juke joint. Is it a murderous cult? Actual demons? The suspense is real! We’ll have to wait until March 7th for the answers.
Last but definitely not least is Disclaimer—Alfonso Cuarón’s new psychological thriller arriving on Apple TV starting October 11th. Cate Blanchett stars as journalist Catherine Ravenscroft, whose life gets turned upside down when an anonymous novel reveals her dark secrets. These secrets could jeopardize her relationship with husband Robert (Sacha Baron Cohen) and son Nicholas (Kodi Smit-McPhee). The series boasts a stellar cast including Kevin Kline and Lesley Manville, narrated by Indira Varma. Sounds like a must-watch!
So there you have it—my favorite trailers from this week! Now excuse me while I try to find time to watch all these gems amidst my busy schedule. Until next time, happy viewing!
