The Invite15

Directed by Olivia Wilde | USA | 2026 | 1h 47m | Starring Penélope Cruz, Edward Norton, Seth Rogen, Olivia Wilde

Joe and Angela’s marriage is on thin ice. When they invite their enigmatic upstairs neighbours to dinner, the night spirals in unexpected directions. Have they reignited the spark, or lit the fuse that burns it all down? This uproariously funny take on modern relationships pairs a razor-sharp script from Rashida Jones with knockout performances from Seth Rogen, Penélope Cruz and Edward Norton, alongside director Olivia Wilde.

Reviews

‘The performances are impeccable, the characters impossibly well balanced. Wilde the film-maker is unimpeachable here.’
★★★★★
Kevin Maher, The Times

‘Maybe there’s something about bourgeois people being embarrassed over dinner that has a certain exportable appeal. The Invite is funny … and Rogen is on top of his game.’
★★★★
Peter Bradshaw, The Guardian

Our beautiful art deco inspired auditorium can be found just off East Oxford's Cowley Road.We are open 7 days a week. We open the cinema and box office 30 minutes before the scheduled start time of each film, and the Box Office then closes 10 minutes after the film starts. We only show a few adverts – less than most cinemas – and we only play a couple of trailers, so please don’t be late as the film itself starts very close to the advertised time!
