2021 has already given us several amazing female-led movies with the likes of Cruella and A Quiet Place Part II, but that’s just the start. Several “girl power” movies are coming to theaters this July and here are three you should put on your bucket list.
Black Widow
After a decade of anticipation, Marvel fans are finally getting the stand-alone Black Widow movie this summer. Scarlett Johansson will once again return in the role of the fierce former assassin Natasha Romanoff, as she reunites with a group of colorful characters from her past.
Gunpowder Milkshake
Speaking of girl power movies about former assassins teaming up to save the day, Gunpowder Milkshake also falls under this category. Its star-studded cast includes Karen Gillan, Lena Headey, Carla Gugino, Michelle Yeoh, and Angela Bassett, and we can’t wait to see them fight by each other’s side.
Zola
If you’re more into indie comedies than action-packed blockbusters, this Sundance hit based on a viral Twitter thread will be your cup of tea. Taylour Paige and Riley Keough star as two free-spirited women trying to make some quick cash dancing in Florida strip clubs during a wild two-day cross-country road trip.
