Bullet Train
In this quirky action-comedy, Brad Pitt stars as Ladybug, an unlucky assassin determined to do his job peacefully after one too many jobs gone off the rails. But fate may have other plans, as Ladybug’s latest mission puts him on a collision course with lethal adversaries from around the globe – all with connected, yet conflicting, objectives – on the world’s fastest train.
The end of the line is just the beginning in this non-stop thrill-ride through modern-day Japan from David Leitch, the director of Deadpool 2 and Pitt’s Fight Club stunt double. Also starring Kick-Ass star Aaron Taylor-Johnson and Atlanta’s Brian Tyree Henry and Zazie Beetz.
Bullet Train is streaming on Sky Cinema with Now from February 17.

Brian and Charles
This unique comedy centres on eccentric recluse Brian (David Earl), who, trapped on a remote farm in northern Wales, tinkers meaninglessly with scrap machinery. One day, to combat loneliness, he makes something that actually works: Charles, a seven-foot-tall walking and talking robot (Chris Hayward) with his own awkward but loveable personality and a taste for cabbages.
They quickly develop a father-son bond – put to the test during the bot’s ‘angry teen’ phase – and take on the village bullies to comic and heart-warming effect.
Brian and Charles is streaming on Sky Cinema with Now from February 19.
