Women & Hollywood’s Summer Preview, Part 1: May and June 2015

The summer movie landscape can often feel like a haze of one huge blockbuster after another, each more testosterone-drenched than the last. However, this summer is packed with titles about women — and some of those women kick ass, too, proving that action franchises needn’t be limited to an aging notion of machismo. Milla Jovovich leads the adventurous “Survivor” (May 29), supported by Emma Thompson, in a story about a government agent trying to prove her innocence. “Pearl” (June 9) follows a woman determined to single-handedly finish off a drug lord and his army. Oscar-winning documentarian Amy Berg directs a dramatic thriller in “Every Secret Thing” (May 15), with a notable cast of Diane Lane, Elizabeth Banks, and Dakota Johnson.

Want to see movies directed or written by women? We’re in luck there, too, as many of these films have women at the helm. Realistic, gritty depictions of women are difficult to come by, but we’ll be blessed with more than a few chances to see them on screen this summer. Kristen Wiig continues her streak of interesting, three-dimensional portrayals in director Shira Piven’s “Welcome to Me” (May 1), about a woman with borderline personality disorder who wins the lottery. Helen Hunt writes, directs and stars in “Ride” (May 1), a film about a woman undergoing a journey of self-discovery later in her life. Writer and director Maya Forbes brings us “Infinitely Polar Bear” (June 19). Inspired by events in Forbes’ life, the film depicts a family brought to the brink of chaos by a father’s bipolar disorder and the (sometimes humorous) path that brings them back together.

There are more than a few big, buzzy titles on this list. “Spy” (June 5) continues Melissa McCarthy’s tour de fist with writer/director Paul Feig (“The Heat”), and promises to be one of the most ROFL movies of the year. “Pitch Perfect 2” (May 15), the sequel to the runaway 2012 hit, brings back the original all-star cast and writer, Kay Cannon, while adding Elizabeth Banks (who produced the first film) to the director’s seat. Reese Witherspoon’s production company, Type A Films, bring us “Hot Pursuit” (May 8), starring Witherspoon and Sofia Vergara in a buddy comedy filled with hijinks and directed by Anne Fletcher. “Tomorrowland” (May 22) stars Britt Robertson, in what may be her breakout summer. Paired with George Clooney and a script from director Brad Bird, “Tomorrowland” may be mysterious, but Bird has never failed to deliver the perfect mixture of wonder and entertainment value.

If you’ve ever despaired about the lack of women-centric films for the younger crowd, despair no longer. We’ll see two highly anticipated animated films that center around girl heroines this summer. Pixar’s big-budget “Inside Out” (June 19) will tell the story of a girl named Riley as she struggles to contain and manage the whirl of emotions inside her head. The prestigious Studio Ghibli has an American release slated for this summer, too. “When Marnie Was There” (May 22) is a mind-bending tale of young female friendship, complete with Ghibli’s beautiful trademark hand-drawn animation.

Period dramas? We’ve got ’em. A few swoon-worthy releases are slated for early summer, including some literary adaptations. First up is “Far From the Madding Crowd” (May 1), based on the Thomas Hardy classic. Starring Carey Mulligan, it promises complications of love, loyalty and one woman’s search for independence in an unforgiving era. “Testament of Youth” (June 5) is based on Vera Brittain’s WWI memoir. Mia Wasikowska continues to show versatility in “Madame Bovary” (June 12), an update of the novel. Kate Winslet comes to us in “A Little Chaos” (June 26), a romance set during Versailles’ heyday that centers around Sophie, a gardener in charge of building one of King Louis XIV’s famous palace gardens.

We will also see the release of several women-directed documentaries, including Lucia Small’s “One Cut, One Life” (May 13), Belinda Sallin’s “Dark Star: H.R. Giger’s World” (May 15), and Sandy McLeod’s “Seeds of Time” (May 21), about the dramatic issues surrounding genetically engineered crops and famine.

We don’t know about you, but we’ll be glued to the theater screen this summer. Here is a list of the women-centric, -written, and/or -directed titles for the months of May and June. All descriptions are press materials, unless otherwise noted.
