The Next Big Thing Issue!

The Next Big Thing Issue!

With a great cover comes great responsibility... This month’s issue of Total Film takes that responsibility seriously as we give you incredible access to The Amazing Spider-Man and speak to its stars.

We also get the lowdown on sci-fi thriller Prometheus from Ridley Scott and Noomi Rapace and find out how Snow White And The Huntsman puts a new spin on the age-old fairytale.

If that’s not enough, we chat to Susan Sarandon, Demi Moore and Simon Pegg, and let you know about the movies to look out for that might not be on your radar yet.

Plus, there are four awesome posters free with this issue!

And if you're a fan of that exclusive subscribers-only cover without the coverlines, then you should definitely subscribe to Total Film magazine now!
