September premieres on Sky Cinema

There’s black comedy on the menu too with Moving On, costume-drama derring-do in The Three Musketeers: Milady, and a moving true story of heroism, guilt and redemption with Anthony Hopkins in One Life – plus lots more great movies premieres.

Read on to find out what’s new on Sky Cinema this coming month.

 

Madame Web

Available from Friday 30 August in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 12

When paramedic Cassie Webb (Dakota Johnson) develops the power to see the future, she’s initially disconcerted – but then realises she can change the course of events yet to come. She identifies three young women whose potential abilities have made them the targets of the nefarious Ezekiel (Tahar Rahim) and helps them stay one step ahead of him. When he turns out to be connected to her mother, Cassie must confront her own past… This suspenseful superhero thriller is set in the same Spider-Man-adjacent universe as the Tom Hardy Venom movies. 

 

He Went That Way

Available from Saturday 31 August in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 15

A serial killer (Jacob Elordi, Saltburn) and a celebrity animal handler (Zachary Quinto, Star Trek) find themselves on a desolate highway with a precious cargo: Spanky the chimp, America’s favourite TV ape. All they need to do is get from A to B, but their combustible personalities mean it won’t be smooth sailing. Partly based on real events, this isn’t a conventional thriller or a straight drama or even a black comedy, but a movie that will keep you both gripped and off-balance as it subverts your expectations.

‌Lovely, Dark, And Deep

Available from Sunday 1 September in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 15

British actor Georgina Campbell (Broadchurch, Barbarian) takes another step on the road to stardom with this atmospheric and creepy film. Campbell is Lennon, a park ranger investigating a disappearance in the wilderness who gradually realises that she’s not dealing with a run-of-the-mill abduction but something much weirder. Debut writer/director Teresa Sutherland, previously a writer on Netflix’s excellent horror series Midnight Mass, brings a distinctive dreamy feel to Lovely, Dark, And Deep (the title is taken from a Robert Frost poem) and revels in wrongfooting viewers at every turn.

The Three Musketeers: Milady

Available from Friday 6 September in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 12

The second part of this adaptation of Alexandre Dumas’s classic novel (the first, D’Artagnan, is also available) shifts the focus to Eva Green’s Milady de Winter, wily assassin and associate of the dastardly Cardinal Richelieu. After her attempts to seduce D’Artagnan (François Civil) fail, Milady tries to kill his fellow musketeer Athos (Vincent Cassel) and sets out on a quest to bump off the Duke of Buckingham (Jacob Fortune-Lloyd). Love, betrayal, plotting, violence, extravagant hats – it’s all here in this relentlessly entertaining action epic. 

 

Moving On

Available from Saturday 7 September in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 15

Seven seasons of Netflix’s Grace And Frankie showed us what a great double act Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin are, so the good news is they’re back together in this comedy drama. The pair star as estranged friends who reconnect at the funeral of a friend, and find themselves recalling the harm their late pal’s widower did to them decades ago. You know what they say about how revenge is best served… Malcolm McDowell co-stars as their target, alongside the late Richard Roundtree (Shaft) in one of his final movie roles. 

 

Head Count

Available from Sunday 8 September in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 15

This unusual action film reimagines the classic climax of Dirty Harry as a blackly comic psychological thriller. When prison escapee Kat (Aaron Jakubenko) has his own gun pointed to his head, he desperately tries to remember when and how he fired the bullets – and, crucially, how many are left. So, does he feel lucky? It’s a real high-wire of a movie, with dizzying flashbacks and imaginative storytelling, co-starring True Blood’s Ryan Kwanten. 

 

Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom

Available from Friday 13 September in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert 12

After the events of Aquaman, Arthur (Jason Momoa) reigns over a peaceful undersea kingdom – but trouble is never far away, and the vengeful Black Manta (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II) is plotting his downfall. When Manta acquires the power of the Black Trident, Arthur recruits his brother Orm (Patrick Wilson) to counter the threat, and the pair soon realise that the villain poses a danger not just to Atlantis but to the entire planet. This is another action-packed instalment from the DC comic-book world, with mind-boggling effects and a central performance of almost superhuman charisma from the mighty Momoa.

 

Hounds Of War

Available from Friday 20 September in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert TBC

Director Isaac Florentine (Undisputed franchise, Close Range) is bringing another exhilarating thriller to our screens with Hounds Of War. The film follows a group of skilled military mercenaries known as The Hounds, who are sent to their demise in a carefully planned trapped disguised as a mission by their creator. However, events quickly go awry and the last remaining member heads out on a one-man mission to avenge his fallen brothers and serve up some stone cold justice. Ka-pow! Frank Grillo (Avengers: End Game), Rhona Mitra (The Fight) and Robert Patrick (Reacher) bring along their action-packed credentials.

 

One Life

Available from Friday 27 September in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert TBC

This powerful film is based on the true story of Nicholas Winton, a London stockbroker who rescued 669 children from the Nazis in the 1930s. Despite the success of his heroic endeavour, when we meet Winton (Anthony Hopkins) 50 years after those events, he is still haunted by the fate of the children he wasn’t able to save. It’s only when TV show That’s Life surprises him by introducing him to some of the survivors, in the famous clip viewed many thousands of times online, that Winton starts to come to terms with his guilt and his accomplishment. 

 

The Persian Version

Available from Sunday 29 September in Sky Cinema on demand. Cert TBC

A clash-of-generations dramedy with charm to spare, The Persian Version throws young Iranian-American woman Leila (Layla Mohammadi) headfirst into a family reunion, where she must negotiate her strained relationship with her mother Shireen (Niousha Noor). She’s just about dealt with Leila’s sexuality, but how will she react when she finds out her daughter is pregnant? Colourful, chaotic and very funny, Maryam Keshavarz’s film is loosely based on the writer/director’s own experiences.
