Seven-time BAFTA Award winner Steve Coogan stars in the acclaimed adaptation of Stanley Kubrick’s comedy masterpiece Dr. Strangelove.

Mickey 17 (15)
Friday 28 March – Thursday 3 April
A return to speculative sci-fi fantasy for Bong Joon-ho, who went stratospheric with his Oscar-winning psychological satire Parasite. Adapted from the novel Mickey7 by Edward Ashton, this stars Robert Pattinson as an “expendable” – a disposable crew member on a space mission, selected for dangerous tasks because he can be renewed if his body dies, with his memories largely intact. With one regeneration, though, things go very wrong.
