There's a new feature-length documentary film that is headed to Disney+ at the beginning of April about elephants, and the narrator of the film is a voice you may recognize (especially if you were a fan of the hit tv show "Suits").

Oh, and she's also a former princess of the United Kingdom, once referred to as the Duchess of Sussex.

Yes, Meghan Markle will be narrating a documentary for Disney+ titled "Elephant".

Although this may be old news, there will be another Disney+ documentary coming out the same day.That film is titled "Dolphin Reef" and will be voiced by Natalie Portman.

Disneynature did a great job of getting some awesome narrators for their new documentaries. Both these films are set to premiere on Disney+ on April 3 so make sure you keep an eye out.

Concrete Cowboy

There are certainly plenty of western films that show how life used to be during simpler times. Times when people used to ride horses. Times when getting a job didn't require any experience. It just required showing up and working hard. And we've seen enough of these films where all the men and women were cowboys and cowgirls. This week's film that we're looking at is Netflix's "Concrete Cowboy," starring Idris Elba. It tells the story of a group of cowboys still living a similar lifestyle today.

This community of black cowboys exists in Philadelphia and has existed for over 100 years. There have been numerous western films made, but not many if any have focused on African-American cowboys. Finally, this movie has the opportunity to shed a light on a group of people many might not know exist. But, before you watch the flick, we want to tell you the reasons to sink it or stream it.

The course that the plot takes is a little too predictable in certain ways which makes the story not feel as original.

This film is heavily reliant on the star power of Idris Elba, but his role is that of a supporting character.

There's not as much action as you might expect from a movie about cowboys, so the film can feel slow at times.

Idris Elba and Caleb McLaughlin's performances as estranged father and son are moving. It should hit close to home for anyone with a similar dynamic as a parent or child.

The cinematography is beautiful with a variety of different, gorgeous sunlit settings.

This untold story about the long history and culture of this community of black cowboys is a powerful one.

Should you skip or stream "Concrete Cowboy"?  We think you should stream it this weekend.

It's not every day that we get an authentic story about a unique group of contemporary cowboys living their lives in Philadelphia, against the norms of modern society. It's also great to see some of the real-life riders in the film spreading awareness for their cause. This is an enjoyable and informative film about a group of African American cowboys that haven't been represented in cinema before.

What to Watch

This week's new sci-fi movie "Voyagers" isn't directly based on a book, but it is loosely inspired by one. Developed by screenwriter and director Neil Burger, the concepts explored in "Voyagers" has roots in William Golding's classic 1954 novel "Lord of the Flies." In the sci-fi drama, 30 young men and women are sent into space to seek out a new home. As the years go by the mission soon descends into madness. Like the boys stranded alone on a deserted island, the crew reverts to their most primal state, as they become more paranoid with each passing day.

This isn't the first time a screenwriter dabbled with the idea of taking a classic adventure novel and sending it into space. As you'll see below, James Gray attempted something similar with 2019's "Ad Astra," to mixed effect. Here now are ten more movies you might not know were based on books.
