        “Superman” is not an origin story, but the film will center on the early days of Superman (David Corenswet-“Twisters”) in Metropolis, when he is still looking for the right way to harness his powers for the good of the Earth. He is also establishing himself as one of the ace reporters of The Daily Planet.         

        As a young Clark Kent, he will also face reconciling his Kryptonian heritage with the life he knows on Earth. Clark is virtually struggling in his day-to-day life as a person, and part of the struggle is his decision to intervene in a foreign war as people are dying.  

        Later, Clark is about to face his first legitimate physical threat as the evil genius adversary Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult-“Mad Max: Fury Road) has the resources to test him. Lex has a gun with Kryptonite bullet which is the key to pulling Superman down.

“SUPERMAN” is now showing at Screenville Cinemas of Island City Mall and Alturas Mall.

COMING SOON

“The Fantastic Four”

at Screenville Cinemas                                                                                                                                                                                       

        The second reboot of Marvel Comic’s Fantastic Four film series about a family of superheroes and the cosmic threats they must battle together, “The Fantastic Four: First Steps” will premiere worldwide on July 23, at Screenville Cinemas of Island City Mall and Alturas Mall.    

         Set against the vibrant backdrop of a 1960s-inspired, retro-futuristic world, the film brings back to the widescreen the beloved first family— the genius Reed Richards (Pedro Pascal), his fiancée Sue Storm (Vanessa Kirby), her human torch brother Johnny Storm (Joseph Quinn) and pal Ben Grimm (Ebon Moss-Bachrach) as they face their most daunting challenge yet.

         As we know, the Fantastic Four got their incredible powers after a space mission where they encountered cosmic radiation. Reed has an elastic body, Sue becomes invisible, Johnny can switch into a being of flame, and Ben turns into a rock creature. 

         Forced to balance their roles as heroes with the strength of their family bond, they must defend Earth from a ravenous space god, the planet-devouring cosmic being called Galactus, and his enigmatic Silver Surfer. 

“THE FANTASTIC FOUR: FIRST STEPS” will premiere worldwide on July 23, at Screenville Cinemas of Island City Mall and Alturas Mall.
