In Heads of State, U.S. President Will Derringer (John Cena) and British Prime Minister Sam Clarke (Idris Elba) do not like each other. Derringer is a former action star who cares more about his public persona than policy. Meanwhile, Sam still believes that his actions speak louder than words. The two rivals put aside their differences to ride together to a NATO summit on Air Force One.
Mid-flight, the plane is shot down, but Derringer and Clarke manage to escape. The duo realizes their inner circles have been compromised. Therefore, they can only rely on each other to find the mole and stop an international incident that threatens global security.

Opening night is full of strong booze, transcendent music, and a whole lot of dancing.

Drop (2025)
After the death of her husband, Violet Gates (Meghann Fahy) eases back into the dating pool by taking a chance on the dashing Henry (Brandon Sklenar). Violet leaves her son, Toby (Jacob Robinson), in the care of her sister, Jen (Violett Beane). At a high-rise restaurant, Violet begins to receive “Digi-Drops,” which are essentially AirDrops with a different name.
These Digi-Drops start as playful memes, but as the night progresses, they become more sinister. The person sending Digi-Drops eventually shows Violet a recording of a masked intruder holding Jen and Toby hostage. To protect her family in Drop, Violet must obey the Digi-Drops, even if one instructs her to kill Henry.
