In the brand-new series Cars on the Road, Owen Wilson reprises the voice role of Lightning McQueen who goes roadtripping with his best friend Mater, voiced by Larry the Cable Guy. Leaving their home town of Radiator Springs, the intrepid duo set off across country to catch up with Mater’s sister.

Thor: Love & Thunder

The God of Thunder (Chris Hemsworth) is on a journey like no other – he’s on a quest for inner peace. But Thor’s retirement is interrupted by galactic killer Gorr the God Butcher (Christian Bale), who seeks the extinction of the gods. To combat the threat, Thor enlists the help of King Valkyrie (Tessa Thompson), Korg (Taika Waititi) and ex-girlfriend Jane Foster (Natalie Portman), who inexplicably wields his magical hammer, Mjolnir, as the Mighty Thor. Together, they embark upon a harrowing cosmic adventure to uncover the mystery of the God Butcher’s vengeance and stop him before it’s too late.
