It seems that there are always new films being released in the world of cinema. No matter if they are action-packed thrillers or rib-tickling comedy, or heart-tugging tragedies, it’s clear that the actors who bring a story to life determine a film’s overall success. Let’s take a look at some of the most recent movies by Hollywood’s most influential actors: Tom Hanks Nicole Kidman and Ryan Reynolds.
Tom Hanks has earned a reputation as one of the industry’s most accomplished and respected figures. Hanks, who is known for his diverse performances, has once again wowed audiences with his new film “News of the World”, a post-Civil War thriller directed by Paul Greengrass. Hanks plays Captain Jefferson Kyle Kidd a former Civil War veteran, now earning a living reading newspapers to remote townspeople. The story follows the character as he embarks on an unexpected journey after he meets a traumatized 10-year-old (Helena Zengel) and decides to take her back to her family, who live many miles away. The film, which will be released in December 2020 by Hanks, showcases his incredible ability to humanize ordinary characters. This further cements his status as an actor of the highest calibre.
The undeniably gifted Nicole Kidman has wowed audiences with her outstanding performance in the drama, “The Prom”, released in 2020. The film, directed by Ryan Murphy is a glamorous adaptation of the Broadway musical with the same title from 2018. Kidman portrays Angie Dickinson who is a disillusioned Broadway dancer who joins a group other washed up theater stars to support a girl in high school who wants to bring her girlfriend to the prom. Kidman’s ability to portray complicated characters is well-known, and she does not disappoint in this musical comedy drama.
Ryan Reynolds , the comic virtuoso, returns to the big-screen in “Free Guy,” an action-packed sci fi comedy directed by Shawn Levy. The film centers around Reynolds’ non-player character in a videogame who becomes aware of himself. Reynolds, who is known for his sarcastic charm and wit, plays Guy with ease, making it a highly entertaining movie. In August 2021, the movie “Free Guy” will be released. It is a blend of humor, action and, surprisingly, heart. Reynolds’ ability to make the audience empathize not only as a comedian but also as a performer is evident.
