It was a thrilling week for film fans as the trailers for several exciting upcoming films hit the web. Topping the list was the long-awaited trailer for Inferno, the Tom Hanks-led film based on the popular Dan Brown novel of the same name. The movie will join the ranks of its predecessors The Da Vinci Code and Angels & Demons.
The action/adventure film Assassin's Creed, starring Michael Fassbender and based on a video game series, also got a trailer, as did the Woody Allen-helmed rom-com Café Society.

Assassin's Creed- Callum Lynch (Michael Fassbender) discovers he's a descendant of the secret Assassins society by unlocking the genetic memories of his ancestor, Aguilar, in 15th century Spain.

Café Society- During the 1930s, Bobby (Jesse Eisenberg) is a Bronx-born kid who travels to California with hopes of making it big in the film industry. Lucky for him he has an uncle, Phil (Steve Carell), who works in the movie business and knows all the right people. Bobby is quickly introduced to the who's who around town, makes friends with some fascinating women (Blake Lively, Parker Posey), falls in love with Phil's sweet secretary (Kristen Stewart) and gets into trouble with his nightclub owner/mobster brother.
Nerve- Shy, mousy Vee (Emma Roberts) accepts an online challenge on the website NERVE, which invites followers to send in videos of themselves performing increasingly risqué or dangerous dares for prizes. She teams up with Ian (Dave Franco) to complete the dares, but the pair quickly realize they've agreed to more than they bargained for. Based on the young adult novel by Jeanne Ryan.
The Woods- Adam Wingard, who brought the horror flicks V/H/S and You're Next to the screen, returns to his found-footage roots with this film about a group of college-aged individuals who trek deep into a forest for a camping trip. What they find, aside from the picturesque scenery, are truly hellish and horrific evils at work.
Swiss Army Man- Hank (Paul Dano) is stranded on a deserted island, having given up all hope of ever making it home again. But one day everything changes when a corpse named Manny (Daniel Radcliffe) washes up on shore. The two become fast friends and ultimately go on an epic adventure in an effort to bring Hank back to the woman of his dreams.
Queen of Katwe- A girl named Phiona from the poverty-stricken slums of rural Uganda dreams of becoming a champion chess player.

With a possible apocalypse looming, they'll have to rely on their wits to see them through.
Ice Age: Collision Course- Sid (John Leguizamo), Manny (Ray Romano), Diego (Denis Leary) and the rest of the pack must leave their home to save themselves after Scrat (Chris Wedge) blasts across space in search of the elusive acorn - catapulting out into the universe where he accidentally causes a series of cosmic events that threaten their homeland. Facing extinction, the friends travel together to a crash sight far away in an effort to stop the impending doom.
Kill Zone 2- When undercover cop Chan (Wu Jing) gets too close to revealing the mastermind of a drug syndicate, his cover is blown.
