Two new exciting movie trailers alert!

Black Widow and Reminiscence can be added to your watchlist for the next two months.

First up, is the much anticipated Black Widow, which is an upcoming superhero film based on the Marvel Comics character of the same name.

The film was directed by Cate Shortland from a screenplay by Eric Pearson, and stars Scarlett Johansson as Natasha Romanoff / Black Widow.

The story is set after Captain America: Civil War (2016), and sees Romanoff alone and forced to confront a dangerous conspiracy with ties to her past.

Romanoff, while pursued by a force that will stop at nothing to bring her down, must deal with her history as a spy and the broken relationships left in her wake long before she became an Avenger.

The official trailer dropped in December of 2019:

This latest release is more of a teaser, titled Playmaker, and provides a little more insight into what we can expect:

Black Widow will finally come to Disney Plus and theatres on July 9.

Next up, from writer/director/producer Lisa Joy, comes Warner Bros. Pictures’ action thriller Reminiscence, starring Hugh Jackman, Rebecca Ferguson, and Thandiwe Newton.

Jackman is best known for his long-running role as Wolverine in the X-Men series but it was the more serious period piece Les Misérables that earned him his first Academy Award nomination and Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in 2013.

Reminiscence sits between these two worlds of action and drama, with Jackman playing a “private investigator of the mind”.

Via The Verge, the trailer has a familiar “futuristic dread/’bring yourself back online'” feeling, probably because Westworld co-creator Joy wrote and directed Reminiscence.

The official synopsis is as follows:

Nick Bannister (Jackman), a private investigator of the mind, navigates the darkly alluring world of the past by helping his clients access lost memories.

Living on the fringes of the sunken Miami coast, his life is forever changed when he takes on a new client, Mae (Ferguson).

A simple matter of lost and found becomes a dangerous obsession.

As Bannister fights to find the truth about Mae’s disappearance, he uncovers a violent conspiracy, and must ultimately answer the question: how far would you go to hold on to the ones you love?

We won’t leave you without the trailer:

Reminiscence will come to theatres and HBO Max on August 20.

Perhaps these movies could serve to help with the onion eyes before and after the Anthony Bourdain doccie that’s coming out in between these two dates.
