After screening blockbuster hits like "Sorry to Bother You" and "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse" last year, ASU 365 Community Union is back with its Movies on the Field film series at Sun Devil Stadium — now free to the public.

First up at 7 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 5, is the latest installment in the Toy Story series: "Toy Story 4." Major complications ensue when Bonnie turns a spork into a toy, but he sees himself as an eating utensil instead. Woody, Buzz and Co. have to set out into the world to find him, reunite with Bonnie and resolve his existential crisis.

On Saturday, Oct. 26, Disney's 2019 "The Lion King" will be shown in conjunction with a food event. The 365 Community Union is partnering with Hawker Street Market for the first-ever Foodie Bowl from 4 to 10 p.m. that day. Admission is free.

Visitors to the Foodie Bowl can choose from more than 20 specialty vendors serving food ranging from bao burgers and sushi tacos to boba and unicorn elotes. Shop local retailers, and cheer on the brave souls attempting to battle the flaming hot spicy noodles challenge.

At 7 p.m., "The Lion King" will be shown. This critically acclaimed version stars Beyoncé, Seth Rogen, John Oliver, Donald Glover and many more. A young lion returns to reclaim the throne that was stolen from him and his father by his treacherous and fratricidal uncle after spending his childhood in exile under the care of a friendly warthog and meerkat. Watch the award-winning cast on the big screen while sitting under the stars on the Sun Devil Stadium field.
