Cinema chain with 103 locations doing £1 films this summer for families – full list of 10 movies you can watch

THE world's second-largest cinema chain has announced a new family deal running all summer. Cineworld is offering £1 Family Films every week starting July 25. 2 The press release reads: "Designed for families to enjoy magical cinema moments, the weekly program features big-screen favourites you might have missed – or just want to experience all over again. "Because some stories are even better the second time, especially when shared as a family." Families will be able to watch favourites like Moana 2, Paddington in Peru, Sonic the Hedgehog 3 and A Minecraft Movie each week. Cineworld is also offering a Munchbox and Family Special deal on snacks. These 10 films will be screened this summer: The Wild Robot Mufasa: The Lion King Sonic The Hedgehog 3 Flow Moana 2 Transformers One Paddington in Peru Disney's Snow White A Minecraft Movie Dog Man Stuart Crane, International VP of Film Content at Cineworld, said: 'Summer holidays are made for being more childish together as a family.' He continued: 'With our £1 Family Films, families can experience the wonder of the big screen – whether it's a film they missed or one they want to rediscover all over again. "It's all about sharing those moments of joy that bring everyone closer and keeping that playful spirit alive all summer long.' The offer runs from July 25 to August 28 across most of the UK. Inside 'world's largest cinema' the 'Big King' with 2,700-seater triple-decker 'grand hall' and giant 3,000sq ft screen In Scotland and Belfast, the offer runs from July 4 to August 24. It comes as Cineworld recently closed six UK sites as part of the first phase of a major restructuring. The affected cinemas were located in: Castleford Leigh Middlesbrough Northampton Poole Weymouth The Sun previously revealed that the Weymouth branch closed for good in December 2024, while the other five sites shut down in January. These closures are part of a wider plan to stabilise the company's finances. In October 2024, a judge approved a £16 million cash injection into Cineworld's four operating companies. The company also secured £40 million in liquidity and plans to invest up to £35 million on refurbishing and upgrading existing cinemas. This follows a turbulent period for Cineworld. Last year, the company emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the US. Cineworld is a British cinema operator, with screens in 747 sites across 10 countries. 2

Summer 2025 preview: The most anticipated new movies and music

Be on the lookout for these new entertainment offerings in the coming months, from theaters to music platforms. Summer Movies "Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning" (Out now) Tom Cruise runs, Tom Cruise hangs onto airplanes in flight, Tom Cruise fights bad guys and AI, Tom Cruise saves the world …? Yes, the latest installment in the "Mission: Impossible" franchise ups the impossible part. "F1" (June 27) Brad Pitt, really fast cars, Javier Bardem as a Formula One team leader – that's kinda all you need to hear. And at an advance screening held in Monaco, auto racers like Lewis Hamilton (an advisor on the film), Lando Norris and Carlos Sainz waved a checkered flag. "Jurassic World Rebirth" (July 2) Scarlett Johansson, Jonathan Bailey and Mahershala Ali find themselves on a top-secret mission that puts them toe-to-toe with giant, hungry reptiles – not where you want to be! But they're on the hunt for the key to a potentially life-saving drug, so we get to watch Big Pharma take on Big Dinosaurs. The seventh "Jurassic Park" film is directed by Gareth Edwards ("Rogue One"), and written by David Koepp (co-writer with Michael Crichton of the very first entry in the series). "Superman" (July 11) David Corenswet and Rachel Brosnahan take over the roles of Clark Kent/Superman and Lois Lane, in the latest iteration of the classic comic book hero. This time out, Supe has a super dog, too! "The Naked Gun" (August 1) It could be called "Son of Naked Gun," as Liam Neeson plays Lt. Frank Drebin Jr., following in the awkward footsteps of Police Squad legend Frank Drebin (the late, great Leslie Nielsen). And don't be confused that the star of such violent revenge films as "Taken" and "Cold Pursuit" is headlining the cast of this comic reboot – that's kind of the point, as when he kicks butt disguised as a little schoolgirl. "The Roses" (August 29) Warren Adler's novel, which was the basis of the darkly comic Michael Douglas-Kathleen Turner film "The War of the Roses," is reimagined in Jay Roach's equally dark comedy starring Benedict Cumberbatch and Olivia Colman as a successful couple coming apart at the seams. The cast also includes Andy Samberg, Allison Janney, and Kate McKinnon. Summer Music Haim: "I Quit" (June 20) I ain't coming backI ain't coming downI was so high last nightI thought, "Burn it to the ground" Oh, but they did come back! The rock band Haim (comprised of sisters Alana, Danielle and Este Haim) gifts us with their first studio album in five years. Haim performs "Down to Be Wrong," from the album "I Quit": Benson Boone: "American Heart" (June 20) After leaping and bouncing onto the charts with his hits "Beautiful Things" and "Slow It Down," Benson Boone is back with his second album. Benson Boone performs "Sorry I'm Here For Someone Else," from the album "American Heart": Madison McFerrin: "Scorpio" (June 24) Indie artist Madison McFerrin, daughter of Bobby McFerrin, releases her second studio album of sultry, jazzy vocals. Madison McFerrin performs "I Don't," from the album "Scorpio": Lorde: "Virgin" (June 27) The New Zealand singer-songwriter's new album (her first since 2021's "Solar Power") is colored with the ambience of her new home, New York City – songs she described to Rolling Stone as rugged, vulnerable, and messy. The lead single, a breakup anthem called "What Was That," she accurately calls "a banger." Lorde performs "What Was That," from the album "Virgin": Laufey: "A Matter of Time" (August 22) The Icelandic singer-songwriter's third album follows her 2023 "Bewitched" (a Grammy-winner for best traditional pop vocal album). Hear Laufey perform "Silver Lining," from the album "A Matter of Time": Story produced by Robert Marston.
