Summer times, hey hey – bio times!

The film about Gyllene Tider is the big Swedish film of the summer. But there's also room for western epics, storms, monsters, and biker gangs at the cinema.

Here's the guide to the summer's biggest films.

(première: 28/6).

Kevin Costner directs and stars in his epic about how the white man conquered the West. It will be a total of four films, with the second one coming on 16 August.

(28/6).

Emma Stone reunites with "Poor things" director Yorgos Lanthimos for three different stories in the same film on the theme of love, power, and sex.

(12/7).

Channing Tatum plays an astronaut and Scarlett Johansson a cunning PR consultant in a romantic comedy set during the 1960s space race.

(17/7).

Jenny tries to shut out her old feelings in favour of new ones as she becomes a teenager and suddenly gets new friends in the sequel to the animated blockbuster from 2015.

(17/7).

The (almost) true story of when Per Gessle and the others conquered the country with Gyllene Tider 45 years ago. Starring Valdemar Wahlbeck and Lancelot Hedman Graaf in the lead roles.

(17/7).

It's stormy weather for hot new Hollywood stars Glen Powell and Daisy Edgar-Jones as they chase tornadoes in a standalone sequel to the classic weather thriller from 1996.

(24/7).

Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) died in the film "Logan" in 2017, but after some film company dealings, he has been revived – and now belongs, along with Deadpool (Ryan Reynolds), to the Marvel universe, so they can meet in the summer's big superhero film.

(14/8).

The action in the new film takes place between the events of the first film, which came out in 1979, and the second ("Aliens – the return") from 1986. The young crew, including Cailee Spaeny, on a space station stumble upon something terrifying.
