Dave Levora, Darren Pitra, and Mike Schulz prepare for next week’s holiday by going over the stuff out there, both in theaters and streaming. Anyone who watched Angus Wall’s Netflix doc on Eddie Murphy, Being Eddie, expecting earth-splitting, scandalous revelations that will make you rethink your whole conception of what it means to be Eddie Muprhy, clearly doesn’t know that celebrities like Eddie Murphy don’t sign deals with Netflix expecting their soiled undies to be paraded before the world. That’s something we all learn to come to grips with, eventually — no?

What’s up:

  • The Running Man (dir Edgar Wright, starr Glen Powell, William H Macy, Lee Pace, Michael Cera, Emilia Jones, Daniel Ezra, Jayme Lawson, Colman Domingo, and Josh Brolin).
  • Now You See Me: Now You Don’t (dir Ruben Fleischer, starr Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Dave Franco, Isla Fisher, Morgan Freeman, Lizzy Caplan, Justice Smith, Dominic Sessa, Ariana Greenblatt, and Rosamund Pike).
  • Keeper (dir Osgood Perkins, starr Tatiana Maslany and Rossif Sutherland).
  • Richard Linklater’s Netflix series Nouvelle Vague (starr Guillaume Marbeck, Zoey Deutch, Aubry Dullin, Bruno Dreyfürst, Benjamin Clery, Matthieu Penchinat, Pauline Belle, Blaise Pettebone, Benoît Bouthors, Paolo Luka Noé, Adrien Rouyard, Jade Phan-Gia, Jodie Ruth-Forest, Antoine Besson, Franck Cicurel, Roxane Rivière, Jean-Jacques Le Vessier, Côme Thieulin, Laurent Mothe, Jonas Marmy, and Niko Ravel).
  • Angus Wall’s Netflix documentary on Eddie Murphy, Being Eddie.
  • Geeta Gandbhir about the killing of Ajike Owens, The Perfect Neighbor (streaming, incidentally, on Netflix).

What will be up:

  • Wicked: For Good (dir Jon M Chu, starr Cynthia Erivo, Ariana Grande, Jonathan Bailey, Ethan Slater, Bowen Yang, Marissa Bode, Michelle Yeoh, Jeff Goldblum, and Colman Domingo).
  • Rental Family (dir Hikari, starr Brendan Fraser, Takehiro Hira, Mari Yamamoto, Shannon Mahina Gorman, and Akira Emoto).
  • Sisu: Road to Revenge (dir Jalmari Helander, starr Aatami Korpi, Stephen Lang, and Richard Brake).
