Entertainment Weekly’s leading man previews the 2015 summer movie season
Blockbuster sequels will abound in the coming months.
First up for the May 1 weekend will be "Avengers: Age of Ultron" featuring the equally blockbuster cast of Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson and too many more to mention.
After the box office dollars roll in for the Marvel super troupe, the battle for biggest sequel will turn to "Mad Max: Fury Road," then "Jurassic World," followed by "Terminator Genisys," then "Mission Impossible."
If you're not into popcorn fare, keep an eye out for Sundance darlings including "Dope" and "Me and Earl and the Dying Girl" in June and the August release of "Sleeping with Other People."
What else are you looking forward to on the silver screen, or VOD for that matter?
