    The life of a boy on the run becomes intertwined with some unusual characters in the upcoming Western  “The Kid.”

    Lionsgate dropped a trailer Thursday for the film starring Ethan Hawke, Dane DeHaan, Jake Schur, Leila George, and Chris Pratt. The preview teases a lot of action as the boy, Rio (Schur), tries to save his sister (George) from his dangerous uncle (Pratt). During their journey through the American Southwest, they cross paths with Sheriff Pat Garrett (Hawke), who is after the infamous outlaw Billy the Kid (DeHaan). They come to serve as examples of the type of man Rio could become.

    Not surprisingly, the West is wild, as we see in the trailer. There are a lot of gunfights and what looks like general lawlessness. Hawke makes for quite the gunslinger, while Pratt looks like a seriously sinister villain. Watch below.

    “The Kid” is directed by Vincent D’Onofrio and presented by Lionsgate and Mimran Schur Pictures, in association with Suretone Pictures. The film opens March 8.

    Netflix has sentient dairy products, werewolf soldiers, wild robots, garbage monsters, and the like for us — all in one animated series.

    The streaming service released the trailer for “Love Death + Robot” on Thursday, and it is a high-octane look at the upcoming anthology. With the series telling 18 different stories over the course of its first season, there was a lot to pack in to the trailer. And pack it, they did. There are so many clips that it’s overwhelming — so much so that it is fitting when a faux error message appears, serving as the “dreaded blue screen of death.”

    Watch below.

    The series is presented by Tim Miller and David Fincher, and the episodes are animated by different teams from around the world. Netflix classifies it under the TV thrillers, TV horror, and TV sci-fi and fantasy genres and describes it as “mind-bending” and “exciting.”

    “Love Death + Robots” premieres March 15 on Netflix.

    The stories aren’t necessarily about romantic love. The trailer shows a mother-daughter relationship between characters played by Mirren and Knightley. Although there’s some clear tension between the two women and Knightley character’s gets snippy with her mom, there’s still obvious affection.

    Watch the trailer below.

    Other cast members include Jim Sturgess, Jenna Dewan, Hayden Panettiere, Emily Beecham, Dianna Agron, Diego Luna, Iwan Rheon, and Charlotte Le Bon.
