Unsung Ron Howard Thriller is a Must-Watch in August 2025 Movie Lineup
In the world of entertainment, August 2025 promises an exciting lineup of movies and documentaries. Let's take a closer look at two highly anticipated releases: "It's Never Over, Jeff Buckley" and "Highest 2 Lowest".
"It's Never Over, Jeff Buckley"
A touching tribute to the late musician Jeff Buckley, this documentary by Amy Berg is set to open in theaters on August 8. The film, distributed by Magnolia Pictures, will later be broadcast on HBO Documentary Films in 2025. The movie premiered earlier at Sundance in January 2025 and features never-before-seen footage of Buckley and interviews with those who knew him best, including his mother and girlfriends.
Buckley, a 27-year-old musician, released his debut album Grace in 1994, which received universal acclaim. Tragically, his life ended in 1997, leaving only one album released. "It's Never Over, Jeff Buckley" is a poignant exploration of the life of this gifted artist taken from the world too soon.
"Highest 2 Lowest"
A reinterpretation of Akira Kurosawa's 1963 Japanese film, "High and Low", "Highest 2 Lowest" is a significant event in Hollywood. Directed by Spike Lee and starring Denzel Washington, the movie is set to open in theaters on August 15. The film will also be available to stream on Apple TV+ starting September 5.
The star-studded cast includes Ilfenesh Hadera, Jeffrey Wright, ASAP Rocky, and Ice Spice, alongside Washington. Details about the movie's release date and platforms are still scarce, but this collaboration between Lee and Washington is sure to be a must-watch.
"Eden"
While release details for "Eden" are not as clear, we do know that the movie will open in theaters later this month. Directed by Ron Howard, the film stars Jude Law, Ana de Armas, Vanessa Kirby, and Sydney Sweeney.
"Eden" is a classic thriller where the dangers of the island are not the main threat, but the people themselves. The movie does not have a domestic distributor for a significant part of the year and was later acquired by Vertical Entertainment.
For updates on "Highest 2 Lowest" and "Eden", checking official announcements or major streaming services closer to their expected release time is advisable. Stay tuned for more updates on these exciting upcoming releases!
