From Alejandro Monteverde, award-winning director of Sound of Freedom, comes the powerful epic of Francesca Cabrini, an Italian immigrant who arrives in New York City in 1889 and is greeted by disease, crime, and impoverished children. Cabrini sets off on a daring mission to convince the hostile mayor to secure housing and healthcare for society’s most vulnerable. With broken English and poor health, Cabrini uses her entrepreneurial mind to build an empire of hope unlike anything the world had ever seen.
From Blumhouse, the genre-defining masterminds behind FIVE NIGHTS AT FREDDYS and M3GAN, comes an original horror film that taps into the innocence of imaginary friends and begs the question: Are they really figments of childhood imagination or is something more terrifying lying just beneath? When Jessica (DeWanda Wise) moves back into her childhood home with her family, her youngeststepdaughter Alice (Pyper Braun) develops an eerie attachment to a stuffed bear named Chaunceyshe finds in the basement. Alice starts playing games with Chauncey that begin playful and becomeincreasingly sinister. As Alices behavior becomes more and more concerning, Jessica intervenes only to realize Chauncey is much more than the stuffed toy bear she believed him to be.
After three death-defying adventures defeating world-class villains with his unmatched courage and mad martial arts skills, Po, the Dragon Warrior (Golden Globe nominee Jack Black), is called upon by destiny to give it a rest already. More specifically, hes tapped to become the Spiritual Leader of the Valley of Peace.That poses a couple of obvious problems. First, Po knows as much about spiritual leadership as he does about the paleo diet, and second, he needs to quickly find and train a new Dragon Warrior before he can assume his new lofty position.Even worse, theres been a recent sighting of a wicked, powerful sorceress, Chameleon (Oscar winner Viola Davis), a tiny lizard who can shapeshift into any creature, large or small. And Chameleon has her greedy, beady little eyes on Pos Staff of Wisdom, which would give her the power to re-summon all the master villains whom Po has vanquished to the spirit realm.So, Pos going to need some help. He finds it (kinda?) in the form of crafty, quick-witted thief Zhen (Golden Globe winner Awkwafina), a corsac fox who really gets under Pos fur but whose skills will prove invaluable. In their quest to protect the Valley of Peace from Chameleons reptilian claws, this comedic odd-couple duo will have to work together. In the process, Po will discover that heroes can be found in the most unexpected places.
