ENTOURAGE

Directed by: Doug Ellin
Starring: Adrian Grenier, Jeremy Piven, Jerry Ferrara, Kevin Dillon, Debi Mazar, Liam Neeson, Haley Joel Osment, Mark Wahlberg, Jessica Alba, Emmanuelle Chriqui.
Release Date: June 19th 2015
Almost four years after the TV show ended, Vincent Chase, Johnny Drama, E, Turtle and Ari Gold are back for a big screen outing of ENTOURAGE.
The film picks up where the TV show left off, with Chase’s directorial debut being bankrolled by Ari Gold. Of course, nothing runs smoothly when it comes to Vincent Chase, so when the film goes massively over budget, Ari must turn to a Texas billionaire to pick up the slack, while Chase maintains that if the film is a flop, he and his friends can just return home to Queens.

MINIONS

Starring: Pierre Coffin, Chris Renaud, Jon Hamm, Sandra Bullock, Michael Keaton, Allison Janney, Steve Coogan, Jennifer Saunders
Release Date: June 26th 2015
Both a prequel to, and spin off from the DESPICABLE ME films, MINIONS focuses on the little yellow creatures, who have a penchant and a need to be sidekicks to the most despicable masters they can find. Having exhausted T-Rexes, Ghengis Kahn and Dracula, three Minions find themselves recruited by the villainous Scarlett Overkill who, along with her inventor husband, has hatched a plot to take over the world.
