The Divergent Series: Allegiant: When Factionless leader Evelyn Johnson appoints herself leader of the city, she expects her son Tobias (Theo James) to help her. Meanwhile, Tris’ (Shailene Woodley) brother Caleb (Ansel Elgort) is sentenced to death for helping former Erudite leader, Jeanine Matthews. Tris and Tobias escape into the world outside the fence and are taken into protective custody, where they make a shocking discovery involving the mixing of DNA.

Green Room: While on the road in Oregon, a down-on-their-luck punk band (Anton Yelchin, Alia Shawkat, Callum Turner, Joe Cole) agrees to perform a last-minute gig in order to make enough money to buy gas to get home to Virginia. The booker advises them not to “talk politics” — which seems easy enough, until they take the stage facing an audience of neo-Nazi skinheads. Although their performance seems to go well, when they return backstage, they’re confronted by white supremacists.

Hardcore Henry: When a man wakes up with no memory of his past, he’s told his name is Henry. He’s also told that he’s now a cybernetic super-soldier resurrected from the dead. Henry is informed that his wife Estelle (Haley Bennett) has been kidnapped and he’s assigned to save her. Everyone is gunning for Henry (literally), except his only ally, a mysterious British man named Jimmy (Sharlto Copley). Or is he an ally?
