8 movies to see this July

It’s officially summer season! the heat is on, and we are ready to go out and flaunt our summer bodies but these 12 movies coming out this month is enough to convince us to divert our summer energy from the beach to the cinemas.

This list is organised in no particular order.

• Black widow (July 9, Theatres): We have seen Natasha Romanoff evolve from assassin to spy to avenger and for the first time in all her appearances in the MCU Natasha is the daughter and sister who has finally returned home. Originally slated for release in mid-2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic that halted major movie screenings Black widow had to be delayed. But with the new teasers and trailers released in the last months leading to July 9th, it's safe to say the experience is worth the wait.
