In what promises to be the franchise’s final, spine-chilling chapter, The Conjuring: Last Rites brings back Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga as Ed and Lorraine Warren for one last paralysing case – this time rooted in the haunting true story of the Smurl family from 1986. Directed by Michael Chaves and capped with a surge of supernatural intensity, the new trailer teases bone-chilling visuals – exorcisms, blood, hair, and a surprise appearance from the iconic Annabelle doll. With Judy Warren (played by Mia Tomlinson) stepping into the fray and themes of legacy, faith, and finality at play, this film aims to deliver an electrifying and deeply personal farewell to the couple that has defined the Conjuring universe.

A Big Bold Beautiful Journey
Release Date: 18 September 2025
Starring: Colin Farrell, Margot Robbie, Phoebe Waller-Bridge
In this fantasy-romance, director Kogonada (of Columbus and After Yang fame) crafts a bewitching tapestry of magical realism that feels deeply intimate yet expansively cinematic. Margot Robbie and Colin Farrell play Sarah and David, two strangers who cross paths at a mutual friend’s wedding and are swept away on an uncanny quest through doorways into their own pasts – reliving pivotal memories and confronting the regrets that shaped them, with the tantalising possibility of reshaping their futures. Laden with emotional resonance and visual wonder, underscored by a stirring score from music maestro Joe Hisaishi, the film invites viewers into a surreal voyage where love, memory, and destiny intertwine. It stands as Robbie’s much-anticipated return to the screen post-Barbie, and Farrell’s luminous segue from brooding roles into a narrative abounding with hope, connection, and transformative possibility.
