MICHAEL 2026 | Dir Antoine Fuqua | USA | 127 min Stars: Jaafar Jackson, Juliano Krue Valdi, Colman Domingo Tracing the early life and meteoric rise of one of the most influential artists of the 20th century, Michael charts the journey of Michael Jackson from his beginnings as the precociously talented lead singer of the Jackson 5 to his emergence as a global superstar during the era of his landmark Bad tour. Portrayed by his nephew Jaafar Jackson, the film explores the ambition, creativity and pressures that shaped his ascent. Blending intimate moments with recreations of iconic performances, it offers a portrait of the artist behind the phenomenon — capturing both the brilliance and the drive that defined his early career.

California Schemin'

CALIFORNIA SCHEMIN' 2025 | Dir James McAvoy | UK | USA | 107 min Stars: Séamus McLean Ross, Samuel Bottomley, James McAvoy Based on an outrageous true story, California Schemin’ is a sharp, high-energy tale of ambition, identity, and musical make-believe. In the early 2000s in Dundee, aspiring rappers Gavin Bain and Billy Boyd are told they’re “too Scottish” for hip hop, so they reinvent themselves as Californian duo Silibil N’ Brains. Against all odds, the ruse works — record deals, media hype, and brushes with hip hop royalty follow. Funny yet moving, it’s a love letter to underdogs, but how far can you chase a dream built on a lie? A crowd pleasing directorial debut from the much loved actor, James McAvoy. Thursday 04 June at 2.30pm and 7.30pm (HOH) Get Tickets

AKIRA

AKIRA 1998 | Dir Katsuhiro Ôtomo | Japan | 125 min Stars: Mami Koyama, Mitsuo Iwata, Nozomu Sasaki From visionary director Katsuhiro Ôtomo — creator of the original manga serial — comes the landmark cyberpunk animation. Set in the neon-drenched sprawl of Neo-Tokyo, a military experiment goes catastrophically wrong, when a teenage biker is transformed into an unstable psychic force of terrifying power. As the city teeters on the edge of destruction, only his closest friend stands between humanity and annihilation. Bold, visceral and visually breathtaking, Akira remains the defining masterpiece of Japanese animation. Japanese with English subtitles. Saturday 06 June at 2.00pm. Contains a sequence of flashing lights which might affect those who are susceptible to photosensitive epilepsy. Get Tickets
