Premiering June 15, "Something New" is a romantic comedy about finding love when it's least expected. Kenya McQueen (Sanaa Lathan) is a beautiful career woman who has achieved great professional success but still yearns for a fulfilling personal life. In her search for the "perfect man," she's set up on a blind date with Brian (Simon Baker), a sexy and free-spirited landscaper who's not exactly what she'd pictured for herself. Alfre Woodard, Blair Underwood, Donald Faison and Mike Epps also star in this emotional and often-hilarious comedy.

On June 22, step into the enchanted world of "Nanny McPhee" where anything is possible. Academy Award winner Emma Thompson portrays a mysterious nanny who is hired by recently widowed, Mr. Brown (Colin Firth) to help tame his seven outrageously unruly children. The children have managed to drive away 17 previous nannies, but as Nanny McPhee takes control, they begin to notice that their misbehaving has magical and startling consequences.

"Munich," the five time Academy Award nominated film directed by Steven Spielberg debuts on June 22. This explosive suspense thriller was inspired by the real-life events following the murder of 11 Israeli athletes at the 1972 Olympic Games. The film stars Eric Bana, Daniel Craig and Oscar winner Geoffrey Rush as players in an international campaign to track down and eliminate the 11 Palestinians believed to have planned the massacre.

Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick return to their award-winning roles based on the Broadway smash-hit, "The Producers," premiering on June 29. This hilarious film centers around the a scheming producer Max Bialystock (Lane) and his mousy accountant, Leo Bloom (Broderick), who discover that under the right circumstances they could make more money by producing a Broadway flop than they can with a hit. But what will they do when their sure-to-offend musical becomes a surprise sensation? Uma Thurman, Will Ferrell and Gary Beach also star in this fun-filled, sidesplitting comedy.
