A forgetful fish named Dory turned out to be this summer's big movie star.
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "FINDING NEMO")
ELLEN DEGENERES: (As Dory) Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming. What do we do? We swim, swim.
ALBERT BROOKS 4: (As Marlin) Dory, no singing.
CORNISH: Dory easily topped superheroes, ghost busters and star trekkers. Summer's important for Hollywood, and the box office total this year will be more than $4 billion. Now the question is how to keep the momentum 5 going into fall. Right now the plan is a mix of blockbusters and awards contenders. Here's Bob Mondello with his selective preview.
BOB MONDELLO, BYLINE 6: If Summer is superhero season, cooler weather is when the young adult fiction folk come out to play.
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "FANTASTIC BEASTS AND WHERE TO FIND THEM")
EDDIE REDMAYNE: (As Newt Scamander) There's strange things going on all over the city.
MONDELLO: Think Katniss and her "Hunger Games" pals 7...
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "FANTASTIC BEASTS AND WHERE TO FIND THEM")
REDMAYNE: (As Newt Scamander) People behind this are not like you and me.
MONDELLO: ...Bella and the "Twilight 8" gang.
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "FANTASTIC BEASTS AND WHERE TO FIND THEM")
KATHERINE WATERSTON: (As Porpentina Goldstein) Yesterday a wizard entered New York with a case...
MONDELLO: ...And yes, Harry 9 and his Potterites.
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "FANTASTIC BEASTS AND WHERE TO FIND THEM")
WATERSTON: (As Porpentina Goldstein) ...A case full of magical creatures.
MONDELLO: The others are done, but the Potterites rights are back.
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "FANTASTIC BEASTS AND WHERE TO FIND THEM")
WATERSTON: (As Porpentina Goldstein) And unfortunately some have escaped.
MONDELLO: J.K. Rowling's fantastic beasts and where to find them is an extension of the Potter universe with a fresh hero and critters for days. And there will be plenty of competition in the critter department from "A Monster Calls," which is about a young boy who summons help to deal with family trauma 10.
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "A MONSTER CALLS")
LIAM NEESON: (As The Monster) You called for a monster.
MONDELLO: There will also be animated 11 baby deliverers in "Storks," animated troll dolls in "Trolls," and Tim Burton will conjure 12 up a whole houseful of oddities in "Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar 13 Children."
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "MISS PEREGRINE'S HOME FOR PECULIAR CHILDREN")
ASA BUTTERFIELD: (As Jacob Portman) He's invisible.
EVA GREEN: (As Miss Alma LeFay Perigrine) Of course. We're what's known in common parlance 14 as peculiar. It's a recessive 15 gene 3 carried down through families.
MONDELLO: Also peculiar or, at any rate, strange is "Doctor Strange," Marvel's first film foray into the occult part of its universe. Benedict Cumberbatch plays the New York surgeon who travels to Nepal seeking healing and ancient wisdom.
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "DOCTOR STRANGE")
CHIWETEL EJIOFOR: (As Baron 16 Karl Mordo) Be careful which paths you travel down, Strange. Stronger men than you have lost their way.
MONDELLO: He finds no critters to speak of but plenty of mentors 17 and mysticism.
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "DOCTOR STRANGE")
BENEDICT CUMBERBATCH: (As Dr. Stephen Strange) Oh, what's this, my mantra?
EJIOFOR: (As Baron Karl Mordo) The Wi-Fi password - we're not savages 18.
MONDELLO: As long as he's brought us back to the real world, let's stay there a moment. Fall is often a time for biopics and other true stories torn from the headlines. They make good Oscar bait after all. In "Sully" directed by Clint Eastwood, Tom Hanks plays the airline pilot who landed a faltering 19 jet in the Hudson River seven years ago.
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "SULLY")
TOM HANKS: (As Chesley 'Sully' Sullenberger) This is the captain. Brace 20 for impact.
VALERIE MAHAFFEY: (As Diane Higgins) What?
MONDELLO: Mark Wahlberg meanwhile will be caught up in the Gulf 21 oil spill that became one of history's biggest environmental disasters.
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "DEEPWATER HORIZON")
MONDELLO: The film "Deepwater Horizon" amounts to 97 minutes of nerve-jangling tension. A pair of films set in Virginia tell true stories of racial prejudice. Nate Parker's "The Birth Of A Nation" revisits the tragic 22 Nat Turner slave uprising of 1831.
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "THE BIRTH OF A NATION")
UNIDENTIFIED ACTOR #1: (As character) What we going to do?
NATE PARKER: (As Nat Turner) We'll fight. Once it begins, our brothers and sisters will join. And we'll number in the hundreds, thousands, even.
MONDELLO: And the film "Loving" looks at the interracial marriage that was strong enough to overturn miscegenation 23 laws 136 years after Nat Turner.
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "LOVING")
RUTH NEGGA: (As Mildred Loving) Richie...
UNIDENTIFIED ACTOR #2: (As character) What you doing in bed with that woman?
NEGGA: (As Mildred Loving) I'm his wife.
UNIDENTIFIED ACTOR #2: (As character) That's no good here.
UNIDENTIFIED ACTRESS: (As character) Richard Perry Loving, being a white person, and Mildred Jeter, being a colored person, did unlawfully cohabitate as man and wife.
NEGGA: (As Mildred Loving) Richard...
JOEL EDGERTON: (As Richard Loving, unintelligible).
MONDELLO: Another legal battle fuels the film "Denial."
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "DENIAL")
TIMOTHY SPALL: (As David Irving) I've got a thousand dollars to give anyone who can show me a document in proof of the Holocaust 24.
RACHEL WEISZ: (As Deborah Lipstadt) I will not debate you - not here, not now, not ever.
SPALL: (As David Irving) Because you can't.
MONDELLO: Other real-life stories include "Queen of Katwe," the tale of a Ugandan chess prodigy 25...
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "QUEEN OF KATWE")
UNIDENTIFIED ACTOR #3: (As character) Why are you letting her win?
UNIDENTIFIED ACTOR #4: (As character) I'm not letting her.
MONDELLO: ..."Bleed For This," about Boxer 26 Vinny Paz who broke his neck but was determined 27 to get back in the ring...
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "BLEED FOR THIS")
AARON ECKHART: (As Kevin Rooney) You just don't know how to give up.
MILES TELLER 28: (As Vinny Pazienza) No, I know exactly how to give up. You know what scares me, Kev, is that it's easy.
MONDELLO: ...And "Hacksaw Ridge 29" about a World War II soldier who changed a lot of minds about conscientious 30 objectors.
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "HACKSAW RIDGE")
UNIDENTIFIED ACTOR #5: (As character) Private Doss, you are free to run into the hellfire of battle without a single weapon to protect yourself.
MONDELLO: That is exactly what he does in "Hacksaw Ridge" to rescue his fallen comrades.
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "HACKSAW RIDGE")
ANDREW GARFIELD: (As Desmond T. Doss) I'm going to get you home.
MONDELLO: Of all the season's true stories, perhaps the most eccentric is a musical, a verbatim musical called "London Road," its script culled 31 from interviews...
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "LONDON ROAD")
OLIVIA COLMAN: (As Julie, singing) Everyone is very, very nervous.
UNIDENTIFIED ACTOR #6: (As character) This is on the road where the suspect was arrested.
MONDELLO: ...Interviews with the neighbors of a notorious serial 32 killer 33.
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "LONDON ROAD")
UNIDENTIFIED ACTORS: (As characters, singing, unintelligible) Police cars.
MONDELLO: "London Road" was adapted from a stage production, while quite a few fall films were adapted from novels. Philip Roth's Pulitzer-winning "American Pastoral," say, about a man whose life comes apart when his daughter becomes a revolutionary...
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "AMERICAN PASTORAL")
UNIDENTIFIED ACTOR #7: (As character) The police have widened their search for the missing teenager.
MONDELLO: ...The best-seller "Girl On A Train," also centered on a young woman gone missing.
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN")
EMILY BLUNT: (As Rachel Watson) I saw her. I saw her from the train.
MONDELLO: "The Da Vinci Code" series returns with symbologist Tom Hanks unraveling the mysteries of Dante in "Inferno 34."
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "INFERNO")
HANKS: (As Robert Langdon) These circles of hell have been rearranged. Why Dante? Dante's death mask - yes. We've got to get to Florence.
MONDELLO: And Tom Cruise as Jack 35 Reacher - well, who knows what he'll get up to in "Never Go Back."
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "JACK REACHER: NEVER GO BACK")
TOM CRUISE: (As Jack Reacher) Two things are going to happen in the next 90 seconds.
JASON DOUGLAS: (As Sheriff) Excuse me.
CRUISE: (As Jack Reacher) First, that phone over there's going to ring. Second, you're going to be wearing these cuffs 36 on your way to prison.
DOUGLAS: (As Sheriff) Well, that is one magnificent prophecy, Mr. Reacher.
(SOUNDBITE OF PHONE RINGING)
CRUISE: (As Jack Reacher) Just going to keep on ringing.
MONDELLO: Also from literary sources - the marital 37 drama "Nocturnal Animals" with Jake Gyllenhaal and Amy Adams and a war hero epic 38 that Ang Lee shot at a hyper-realistic 120 frames per second. It's called "Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk."
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "BILLY LYNN'S LONG HALFTIME WALK")
JOE ALWYN: (As Billy Lynn) It's sort of weird 39 being honored for the worst day of your life.
MONDELLO: Shooting at five times the usual film speed makes this one sound a little experimental, but there are also reassuringly 40 tried and true projects - a new mockumentary, for instance, from the director of "Best In Show." Christopher Guest's "Mascots 42" is about the Fluffies, a competition for the nation's best sports mascot 41.
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "MASCOTS")
PARKER POSEY: (As character) I went to the Fluffies five years ago. I got honorable mention. That's like first place really, but it's a weird first place.
MONDELLO: Also more or less presold are sequels for the "Bridget Jones" and "Blair Witch" movies and a high-powered remake of an iconic Western.
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN")
HALEY BENNETT: (As Emma Cullen) We're decent people being driven from our home.
DENZEL WASHINGTON: (As Chisolm) So you seek revenge.
BENNETT: (As Emma Cullen) I seek righteousness, but I'll take revenge.
MONDELLO: Director Antoine Fuqua has upgraded the firepower a bit for his new "Magnificent Seven," bringing a Gatling gun to the big showdown. And speaking of showdowns, the Affleck brothers are going head to head in two of the season's most anticipated dramas - Ben Affleck playing an autistic genius in "The Accountant"...
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "THE ACCOUNTANT")
BEN AFFLECK: (As Chris) I have difficulty socializing with other people.
MONDELLO: ...While Casey Affleck plays a grief-stricken guardian 43 in "Manchester By The Sea."
(SOUNDBITE OF FILM, "MANCHESTER BY THE SEA")
CASEY AFFLECK: (As Lee Chandler) What happened to my brother?
MONDELLO: The story of estranged 44 family members who must learn to communicate, "Manchester By The Sea" is already garnering 45 Oscar talk. And if you think family communication is tough, try talking with aliens from another planet. That's what Amy Adams has to do with the stakes very high in "Arrival."
AMY ADAMS: (As Dr. Louise Banks) We need to make sure that they understand the difference between a weapon and a tool. Language is messy, and sometimes one can be both.
MONDELLO: All this before Thanksgiving and the arrival of year-end blockbusters and awards contenders. Hollywood is messy, and sometimes one can be both. I'm Bob Mondello.
