The biggest summer movies of 2016
From 'The BFG' to 'Ghostbusters', here are ten films we can't wait to watch this summer
Get ready for Bolly-swigging, supervillains and Alexander Skarsgård's chest. There’s a whole lot of movies to look forward in the next few months.
Summer movies 2016
1. ‘The BFG’
If the trailer is anything to go by, this film of Roald Dahl’s kids’ classic will twinkle so brightly you’ll be able to see it from space. Not only is Steven Spielberg directing but Mark Rylance plays the friendly giant – radiating warmth as if he’s just swallowed a chunk of the sun. July 22
2. ‘Suicide Squad’
Okay, so we’re getting Wonder Woman next year. But Margot Robbie as baseball-bat-swinging, gum-chewing Harley Quinn, psychiatrist-turned-supervillain, looks like a way more fun heroine. Robbie steals the trailer of ‘Suicide Squad’, the DC Comics film about a gang of despicable criminals working for the US government. (But she loses points for crime fighting in sequin knickers and ripped fishnets. Impractical and objectionable.) August 5
3. 'Jason Bourne’
4. 'Independence Day: Resurgence’
5. ‘Florence Foster Jenkins’
6. ‘Ghostbusters’
7. ‘The Legend of Tarzan’
Fans of the Swedish hunk will be, um, pleased to hear that his torso gets plenty of air time in this all-action re-imagining of the Tarzan story. We’re just wondering where you could find a gym in nineteenth-century Congo to keep a six-plus-pack so sculpted. July 8
8. ‘Sausage Party’
9. ‘Absolutely Fabulous: The Movie’
10. ‘The Nice Guys’
The 1970s seem to suit Ryan Gosling. Just check out the handlebar moustache he’s rocking in Shane Black’s comic thriller, then try to imagine anyone else pulling it off. The Gos plays an LA private dick investigating the case of a missing girl. We’re thinking this will be laidback and ‘Lebowski’-ish. June 3
