Many amazing new movies are coming our way this month, and some of them are putting powerful female heroines front and center. If you’re always in the mood to add new girl power films to your watch list, here are a few you should check out in the next few weeks.
The Princess
Joey King rose to prominence with the role in the Kissing Booth franchise, but her next role will be completely different. The Princess sees her play a rebellious princess, who decides to take things into her own hands after being locked away because she refused to get married to an evil suitor.
Thor: Love and Thunder
Chris Hemsworth spent an entire decade wielding the hammer Mjolnir as Thor, but he won’t be the only one doing it anymore. We’ll watch Natalie Portman transform into Mighty Thor in Thor: Love and Thunder, after undergoing cancer treatment that gave her powers similar to Thor’s.
Where the Crawdads Sing
Despite not featuring any superheroes or female warriors, Where the Crawdads Sing still manages to be one of the summer’s best female-driven films. It’s based on Delia Owens’ best-selling novel of the same name and follows the adventures of a young woman who gets accused of murder after growing up as a miscast in the marshes of the deep South.
