But with cinemas closed at the moment because of the coronavirus, here are three trailers for films you can catch on streaming services online.

Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga

Netflix / YouTube

Will Ferrell and Rachel McAdams play Lars and Sigrit, a father and daughter duo from Iceland who get their chance to represent their country at the Eurovision. The only hitch is that nearly everyone thinks they are a laughing stock.

Movie Coverage / YouTube

Joseph Gordon Levitt plays a pilot stuck in the cockpit when an incident breaks out on board and men attempt to hijack the plane.  

Within Our Gates

Library of Congress / YouTube

This piece of African-American filmmaking was made in 1920 and has thankfully survived until today. It tells the story – told by director Oscar Micheaux – of a teacher from the Deep South who takes a fundraising trip to Boston, where she falls in love with a man named Dr Vivian. Through its narrative it explores systemic racism in the US at that time.

Which one would you watch first?
