August Picks: The Movies and TV You Can't Miss18 of 18
The New Mutants | In Theaters Friday, Aug. 28
Plot: Five young mutants, just discovering their abilities while held in a secret facility against their will, fight to escape their past sins and save themselves.
Our Take: Despite predictions that Comic-Con@Home 2020 would bring an announcement of another pushed-out release for The New Mutants, it appears Disney is still pushing for a late-August date. Whether or not the comic book flick actually hits theaters this summer, a new synopsis has fans excited about possible links to both 'X-Men' and Deadpool, despite Josh Boone’s former denials. The promise of a horror-infused addition to the franchise and some exciting casting (it’s Maisie Williams’ time to step out of the Stark shadow) has held my attention through the extensive waiting period. — Hannah
