The spork awakens…
To infinity and beyond is not an ethos anyone wants to be applied to the Toy Story movies. The original trilogy is nigh-on perfect, with 2010’s Toy Story 3 (only the third animated film to date to score a Best Picture nod) putting an impeccable cap on the story arc shared by cowboy doll Woody (Tom Hanks) and his human owner Andy (John Morris). So why revive the franchise nine years on?
Well, the great thing about the creative bods at Pixar is that they love movies every bit as much as you do. Meaning that Toy Story 4 is neither superfluous nor a cash-in. All the way back in 2010, in fact, Pixar announced there might be opportunities to return to the beloved characters in the future, but only when the time, and story, is right. This is that time, that story. Because while TS4 doesn’t quite hit the dizzying highs of the trilogy, it has been lovingly fashioned to offer a tale that is at once separate and a continuation – a canny mix of fresh and familiar.

Back With a Vengeance - Sir Ridley Scott returns to the Colosseum with Gladiator II, the long-awaited sequel to the greatest historical epic of this century. Total Film meets the director and cast to discover how Maximus' legacy is echoing in eternity.
Ridley Scott is not a filmmaker to repeat himself. It's a trait that's all the more remarkable when you consider how prolific he's been over the nearly five decades since his feature debut, 1977's The Duellists. Alien prequels Prometheus and Alien: Covenant are the only times he's gone back to the same world, and those films are radical departures from the original.
Bad Romance - Timestalker Alice Lowe falls in love with the wrong man time and time again...
Her antidote to that? Timestalker a dark not-quite-romcom set over the course of centuries. Her protagonist Agnes finds herself attracted to the same man, Alex (Dunkirk's Aneurin Barnard), in every lifetime as she's reincarnated in the 1680s, 1790s, 1980s and the 22nd century. As romantic as that may sound, there's a bit of a catch: 'He's sort of a dickhead. On the surface he's appealing, but under, he's not.'
