The Magic Lantern is a non-narrated celebration of early cinema and silent-film imagination, exploring the early work of pioneers such as Georges Méliès, Eadweard Muybridge, Segundo de Chomón, and Émile Cohl.
It shares its release window with The Punisher: One Last Kill, so expect the two fanbases to be reacting side by side.
It hits the big screen on May 11, 2026.
Bja Samuel directs.
