Christmas Eve Debut for Don’t Look Up

Billed as “the be-all, end-all movie event of the year”, Netflix’s Don’t Look Up will release in select cinemas that same day it streams globally: December 24.

It stars Leonardo DiCaprio, Jennifer Lawrence and Meryl Streep in the tale of two low-level astronomers who must go on a giant media tour to warn mankind of an approaching comet that will destroy planet Earth.

Adam Mackay (The Big Short) directs; Rob Morgan, Jonah Hill, Mark Rylance, Tyler Perry, Timothée Chalamet, Ron Perlman, Ariana Grande, Scott Mescudi and Cate Blanchett co-star.

Netflix also has released the trailer for season three of Sex Education, which will stream from September 17. Reads the blurb:

It’s a new year, Otis is having casual sex, Eric and Adam are official, and Jean has a baby on the way. Meanwhile, new headteacher Hope (played by Jemima Kirke) tries to return Moordale to a pillar of excellence, Aimee discovers feminism, Jackson gets a crush and a lost voicemail still looms. Prepare for commitment animals, alien phenomena, vulva cupcakes and much more of Madam Groff.

Also new to the cast will be Jason Isaacs as Peter Groff, Mr Groff’s more successful and not very modest older brother; recording artist and songwriter Dua Saleh as Cal, a nonbinary student at Moordale; and Indra Ové as Elsie’s foster mum Anna.
