“Mobilizing is really hard when you’re scared and you’re censored,” we’re told in a new trailer for “Plan C.” Tracy Droz Tragos’ latest doc sees a group of blue state advocates, midwives, and doctors working to increase access to abortion pills in the United States. Comparing themselves to a “drug cartel” to help people, the network aims to bring more reproductive freedom to folks regardless of where they live, spreading the word about how and where to buy abortion pills online.

“Plan C” offers an inside look at their work between 2020 and the overturning of Roe in 2022.

Tragos previously tackled abortion in 2016’s “Abortion: Stories Women Tell.” Her

Now screening at SXSW, Sophie Jarvis’ “Until Branches Bend” tells the story of Robin (Grace Glowicki), a cannery worker who is struggling to get an abortion. She’s also dealing with major drama at work. When she finds an invasive bug in a peach, Robin is pressured to stay quiet about her discovery by management. “You did the right thing bringing it here,” she’s told. “Let’s just keep this between you and I.” The spot suggests that Robin doesn’t follow orders, and word gets out.

Robin “turns her focus towards proving to her community that the danger [the issue] poses is real. As her obsession alienates her from friends and family,

Halle Bailey is ready to be part of your world. A trailer has arrived for “The Little Mermaid,” Disney’s live-action take on the classic 1989 animated feature. Bailey takes on the role of Ariel, an adventurous mermaid desperate to learn more about humans and to escape her domineering father, King Triton (Javier Bardem).

While taking a secret trip to the “above world,” Ariel falls for a human, Prince Eric (Jonah Hauer-King). She seeks help from Ursula (Melissa McCarthy), a sea witch, for a chance to be part of the human world — but Ariel’s dream can only come true if she pays a hefty price.

“This is history in the making.” “Everything Everywhere All at Once’s” Michelle Yeoh concluded her acceptance speech at the Oscars on Sunday by recognizing the milestone audiences around the world had just witnessed: Yeoh became the first Asian woman to win Best Actress, and the second woman of color to win the honor. (Halle Berry broke ground as the first in 2002 for “Monster’s Ball.”)

During her time at the podium, Yeoh gave a shout-out to younger viewers. “For all the little boys and girls who look like me watching tonight, this is a beacon of hope and possibilities. This is proof that, dream big, and dreams do come true,”

Jennifer Garner rose to fame and scored four Emmy nominations depicting a spy on “Alias” but her latest project sees her investigating someone else’s secret identity. She leads “The Last Thing He Told Me,” Apple TV+’s adaptation of Laura Dave’s bestselling novel of the same name. “Your husband is not who you think he is,” Hannah (Garner) is told in a new trailer for the series.

When her husband, Owen (Nikolaj Coster-Waldau, “Game of Thrones”), mysteriously disappears, Hannah must protect her 16-year-old stepdaughter, Bailey (Angourie Rice, “Spider-Man” franchise). We’re told that the pair are in “imminent danger” — it turns out that Owen has been keeping secrets, and Hannah and

“Our Body” has secured North American distribution following its world premiere at last month’s Berlinale. Cinema Guild scored rights to Claire Simon’s look inside a public hospital’s gynecological ward. Deadline reports that the documentary is expected to hit theaters later this year.

Offering a glimpse inside the “everyday operations” of the Paris ward, “Our Body” “questions what it means to live in a woman’s body, filming the diversity, singularity, and beauty of patients in all stages of life. We see cancer screenings and fertility appointments, a teenager dealing with an unwanted pregnancy, a trans woman considering the beginnings of menopause. Through these encounters and many more, the specific fears, desires,

Winter is coming. A trailer for the second season of “Yellowjackets” has dropped, and after barely surviving the summer, the plane crash survivors at the center of the show will have to deal with plummeting temperatures and snow in the wilderness. But the weather is just one stressor among many. “The whole time, there was some darkness out there,” says Natalie (Juliette Lewis).

Set to a Florence + The Machine cover of No Doubt’s “Just a Girl,” the spot suggests that the Yellowjackets didn’t leave the darkness behind in the wilderness. They brought it back with them, and decades later, they’re still wrestling with it.

Shauna (Melanie Lynksey) is dealing

Chinonye Chukwu is heading to Wall Street. The “Till” filmmaker will follow up her acclaimed biopic of Mamie Till-Bradley, an activist fighting for justice following the murder of her son, Emmett Till, by writing and directing an adaptation of Cin Fabré’s novel “Wolf Hustle.” Deadline reports that Apple “won a multiple studio bidding war” for the book.

“In ‘Wolf Hustle,’ Fabré, who was a broker on Wall Street, offers an engrossing and unapologetic portrait of a young Black woman succeeding in the testosterone laden New York business world. The author in her deconstruction of the business world, grapples with what is most meaningful in life, ultimately beating Wall Street at

Sex, masturbation, puberty, bullying, body image, divorce — Judy Blume’s children’s books have earned a special place in the hearts of millions of young readers for taking an unvarnished look at the issues affecting their lives. “I don’t think that Judy Blume wrote her books to be timeless. I think she wrote her books to be timely — and they were so timely that they became timeless,” says “Ghost” author Jason Reynolds in a new trailer for “Judy Blume Forever.” Directed by Davina Pardo and Leah Wolchok, the documentary explores why generations of readers have connected with Blume’s novels and shines a spotlight on the author’s own life.
