The stars turned out Wednesday night (June 8, 2016.) at the Hollywood premiere for the new Disney movie, "Finding Dory," the long-awaited sequel to Finding Nemo. Ellen DeGeneres returns as the forgetful Dory and Albert Brooks is back as the cranky Marlin. Joining them is Ty Burrell, from ABC’s Modern Family, as Bailey the Beluga whale.

World Premiere arrivals were held at the El Capitan Theatre in Hollywood, CA. 

About the film:

Finding Dory welcomes back to the big screen everyone’s favorite forgetful blue tang Dory (voice of Ellen DeGeneres), who’s living happily in the reef with Marlin (voice of Albert Brooks) and Nemo (voice of Hayden Rolence). When Dory suddenly remembers that she has a family out there who may be looking for her, the trio takes off on a life-changing adventure across the ocean to California’s prestigious Marine Life Institute, a rehabilitation center and aquarium. In an effort to find her mom (voice of Diane Keaton) and dad (voice of Eugene Levy), Dory enlists the help of three of the MLI’s most intriguing residents: Hank (voice of Ed O’Neill), a cantankerous octopus who frequently gives employees the slip; Bailey (voice of Ty Burrell), a beluga whale who is convinced his biological sonar skills are on the fritz; and Destiny (voice of Kaitlin Olson), a nearsighted whale shark. Deftly navigating the complex inner workings of the MLI, Dory and her friends discover the magic within their flaws, friendships and family.

Finding Dory opens Friday, June 17.

The BFG", is a big screen adaptation of the much-loved story by British author Roald Dahl. The movie premiered in Hollywood at the El Captitan Theater on Tuesday (June 21, 2016). Director Steven Spielberg along with the stars were on-hand to unveil his latest foray into making films through the eyes of children. Mark Rylance, voice of the giant, walked the carpet as well as various celebrity cast members and guests including, John Williams, Jillian Michaels, Mario Lopez, Gloria Reuben, Rebecca Hall, Joely Fisher, Bill Hader among others.

About the Film:

The BFG (Mark Rylance), while a giant himself, is a Big Friendly Giant and nothing like the other inhabitants of Giant Country. Standing 24-feet tall with enormous ears and a keen sense of smell, he is endearingly dim-witted and keeps to himself for the most part. Giants like Bloodbottler (Bill Hader) and Fleshlumpeater (Jemaine Clement) on the other hand, are twice as big and at least twice as scary and have been known to eat humans, while the BFG prefers Snozzcumber and Frobscottle. Upon her arrival in Giant Country, Sophie, a precocious 10-year-old girl from London, is initially frightened of the mysterious giant who has brought her to his cave, but soon comes to realize that the BFG is actually quite gentle and charming, and, having never met a giant before, has many questions. The BFG brings Sophie to Dream Country where he collects dreams and sends them to children, teaching her all about the magic and mystery of dreams. Having both been on their own in the world up until now, their affection for one another quickly grows, but Sophie’s presence in Giant Country has attracted the unwanted attention of the other giants, who have become increasingly more bothersome. Sophie and the BFG soon depart for London to see the Queen (Penelope Wilton) and warn her of the precarious giant situation, but they must first convince the Queen and her maid, Mary (Rebecca Hall), that giants do indeed exist. Together, they come up with a plan to get rid of the giants once and for all. “The BFG” opens in U.S. theaters on July 1, 2016, the year that marks the 100th anniversary of Dahl’s birth.
