Mon Mothma in Lucasfilm's ANDOR, a prequel to Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, now playing on Disney+. - DisneyRogue One: A Star Wars Story is probably my favourite Star Wars film. It’s an intense, gritty heist movie with Star Wars trappings. Beautifully executed in every way with interesting, fleshed-out characters that don’t require magic powers or laser swords.Andor is a prequel to that film, focusing on Cassian Andor , an abrasive yet charming rogue with a galaxy-sized chip on his shoulder.

Thanks largely to Luna’s incredible performance, Cassian is instantly likeable — you can’t help but root for him, even when he makes some questionable choices. With a grounded production design, moody score courtesy Nicholas Britell , Andor feels like Star Wars at its most Blade Runner. It feels fresh and exciting, perhaps just at the right moment for the franchise.Kathy Najimy as Mary Sanderson, Bette Midler as Winifred Sanderson, and Sarah Jessica Parker as Sarah Sanderson in Disney's live-action HOCUS POCUS 2, exclusively on Disney+.

Twenty-nine years after the Black Flame Candle is lit and the sisters returned, they are summoned once again and are on the hunt for payback before their time runs out for good. For what purpose? It’s hard to say. But one message that rings through loud and clear in the film’s writing and direction , is that abortion is bad. I never thought I would see Marilyn Monroe become an anti-choice figure, but according to this, she was.
