Black Panther: Wakanda Forever

The sequel to the hit 2018 Black Panther proved that Marvel has still got it. Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is an emotional rollercoaster with the film paying a touching tribute to Chadwick Boseman. The actor who starred in the original film sadly passed away in 2020. The film stars some of the strongest black female actors of this generation has seen: Angela Bassett, who won the Golden Globe for best supporting actress, Lupita Nyong’o, Letitia Wright, Florence Kasumba, and Danai Gurira. Hurry to catch this action-packed spectacle whilst it’s still in cinemas!

Elvis

The charismatic Austin Butler won best actor in the drama category for his role as the titular character in Elvis and made young women fall head over heels all over again for the king of rock ‘n’ roll with the film’s release. Fun, ever so aesthetically pleasing with amazing costumes and set design, and of course featuring superb music, Baz Luhrmann’s Elvis was a smash hit becoming the second highest-grossing music biopic of all time. Yet the film is also incredibly heartfelt following the rise and the fall of Elvis’ career due to partially to the financial abuse of his manager Colonel Tom Parker (Tom Hanks). This dazzling story is now available to watch on Prime.

Tár

Tár has been hailed by many critics as one of the best films of 2022 with many praising Cate Blanchett’s performance so it is unsurprising that she won the Golden Globe for best actress in the drama category. Sadly, Cate had to miss the ceremony due to filming commitments (although lucky for us we’ll get to see this first-class actress in something new soon!). The film stars Blanchett as the intense fictional composer Lydia Tár and follows her downfall as she struggles to record the symphony which will change her career. The film has heavy Black Swan vibes and is a must-see for all ambitious women thirsty for a top-notch psychological thriller. Tár will be playing in cinemas Friday.

Everything Everywhere All At Once

Everything Everywhere All at Once has something for everyone. Featuring epic fight scenes with bumbags, out-of-this-world costumes, and ridiculous hotdog-fingered queer love stories. This film never fails to surprise and amuse. It’s also the most heart-wrenching film of 2022 telling a moving tale about a fractured mother and daughter relationship – we cried for the whole second half and there’s no way you won’t too. The film won Michelle Yeoh a much-deserved Globe for best actress in musical or comedy and Ke Huy Quan secured his comeback with a Globe for best supporting actor. Do yourselves a favour and go watch this absurdist comedy-drama on Prime now.

House Of The Dragon

The new instalment in the Game of Thrones franchise won best TV show at the Golden Globes continuing the legacy of the franchise winning at the ceremony. The show follows the Targaryen house, 200 years before the events of Game of Thrones, focusing on the incidents that led to the devastation of the house.  House of the Dragon is a complete must watch for all Game of Thrones fans of course but even if you haven’t got around to watching the original show this series holds up on its own focusing on two fierce female characters battling it out for the kingdom. With lush costumes, a great script, insanely good casting, Matt Smith in a rather fetching wig, and plenty of dragons, there’s no way you won’t get hooked. Emma D’Arcy, who plays Rhaenyra Targaryen, is an actor to keep an eye on. With Season 2 due to be on our screens in 2024 you’ve got lots of time to catch up.

The White Lotus

The White Lotus is basically Succession for the girlies. The irreverent HBO anthology series won a Golden Globe for best limited series, anthology series or TV movie with the mesmerising Jennifer Coolidge winning best supporting actress in a limited series or TV movie. The show’s theme is trending on TikTok gathering huge hype and high ratings. The black comedy reveals the dark underbelly of the rich and elite as the plot revolves around a group of entitled guests with various flaws whilst they stay at the White Lotus Resort. The first season has an all-star ensemble cast with Connie Britton, Sydney Sweeney, Alexandra Daddario starring alongside Coolidge. With season two out now, featuring Audrey Plaza and Theo James, and season three confirmed to be on the way there are lots of binge-worthy episodes to get through here.
