Agatha Christie's classic, Death on the Nile, starring Gal Gadot, Russell Brand and Kenneth Branagh as Hercule Poirot, is releasing at cinemas this week, turning a honeymoon into a murder mystery, perfect for everyone looking for an adventurous and exciting spin on romance.

The romantic comedy that will make you say “I do” to a cinema visit this week is Marry Me, starring Jennifer Lopez, Owen Wilson, Latin musician Maluma and Sara Silverman. Spotlight talks to some of the cast and finds out how much fun the making of this production was. From cheating fiancés to finding love in the most unlikely places, the film delivers great entertainment and love-filled escapism.

We take a look at next week’s cinema release, Singleholic, featuring a cast of beautiful people, including Erica Ash, Vanessa Estelle and Tyson Beckford. Don’t miss next week’s episode for more.
