The 2025 film release calendar is packed with highly anticipated flicks. To name a few, "Jurassic Park: Rebirth" debuts in July, "28 Years Later" will scare audiences starting in June and Tom Cruise plays Ethan Hunt yet again in "Mission Impossible: The Final Reckoning" in May.

Not sure what else is on the schedule for the rest of year? Harkins Theatres is hosting a special 2025 film preview at all of its metro Phoenix locations on Tuesday, April 22, and Thursday, April 24.

According to the Harkins website, "Sneak Peek Showcase brings the famed industry-insider event CinemaCon — and its studio content — to the masses, with a fun look at trailers, some never-before-seen footage and behind-the-scenes content from the upcoming theatrical slate."

Cost is only $3 plus fees, and your ticket includes a small popcorn. Considering that a small popcorn alone is usually $7, the Sneak Peek Showcase seems like a pretty good deal. In addition, Harkins Awards Members will receive $3 in bonus bucks for attending. Visit the Harkins Theatres website for tickets and info.
