Back in January, Kevin Fiege hinted that the marketing for the upcoming Avengers: Endgame would only involve footage from the first twenty minutes of the film. Whilst last week’s surprise trailer seemingly dispelled that rumor, it still goes with out saying that we have actually seen very little of the highly anticipated sequel – and if a recent comment from the film’s director, Joe Russo, is anything to go by – we could have ended up seeing a lot less. As part of Empire’s Avengers: Endgame special, the magazine sat down with Russo who explained that the studio did at…

Since it was announced last year, we’ve slowly been finding out more and more information about what we can expect from Disney’s upcoming streaming service, Disney+.

Now, thanks to a new report we have an idea of another Marvel show that they may be adding to their roster.

It’s a well known fact that big screen video game adaptions often end up being somewhat disappointing. Sure they often end up making money but they’ve never really reached the height of popularity that their Comic Book Movie cousins have reached. This year looks to be slightly more promising with the release of more family oriented films such as Detective Pikachu and Sonic the Hedgehog. However, it’s not just the big screen that’s getting a film based on a beloved video game property, we’re also getting a new film based on the popular Doom franchise later this year – the…

It’s safe to say that Marvel and Disney are moving full steam ahead in their plans to diversify their films. Last year saw Black Panther, their first film will a primarily Black cast smash all kind of records and even go on to become the MCU’s first Oscar Winner and now this year we have Captain Marvel – the franchise’s first film with a female lead. But as I said, the studio seem to have no plans to slow down in this capacity with a top executive revealing that we may soon be seeing our first LGBTQ superhero. The comment…

Another day, another leak from a mysterious source close to Marvel saying things about the MCU which are just vague enough to be considered legit – but also something that can easily dismissed as the studio deciding to go a different route if it doesn’t happen. This time round the leaked information comes courtesy of We Got This Covered who claim to have been contacted by the aforementioned source who reveals that not only do the MCU’s future plans involve the Skrulls continuing to have an ongoing presence after their debut in Captain Marvel – but also that Norman Osborne and…

I hope you have your shovel ready because you’re going to need to take the following Captain Marvel rumor that has surfaced with a whole lot of salt. Basically, the story comes from a YouTuber named  ‘Film Gob’ that claims that an anonymous source with Disney and Marvel has come forward and claimed that Brie Larson, the titular heroine in Disney’s Captain Marvel, has fallen out of favor with both her fellow co-stars and her higher ups. It even goes on to state that they could be looking to kill the character off several films before the end of her…

After the runaway success of Venom last year, Sony are eager to move onto the next film in their Spider-Man-less Spider-Man franchise with work on Morbius already underway. Now to celebrate the completion of the first week of production, lead actor Jared Leto has posted the first look at himself in a behind the scenes photo from the set. The photo was posted by the Suicide Squad star on his official Twitter page with a post also revealing that production on the film has actually been underway for a week already.

After what feels like an age, it looks as though the merger between Fox and Disney will soon be finalized, allowing characters such as Deadpool, The Fantastic Four and The X-Men to finally interact with the heroes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Well, what characters actually make it out of Avengers: Endgame that is…. Now, a recent rumor has revealed what may in fact be Disney’s overall plan for the characters. Something which involves seeing Earth’s Mightiest Heroes going toe to toe with Marvel’s most famous Mutant team. This rumor comes courtesy of We Got This Covered who explain that…

With all the excitement surrounding Captain Marvel and Avengers: Endgame it’s easy to forget that DC also has a film coming out this year in  the form of David F. Sandberg’s Shazam!. Thankfully, we have a brand spanking new trailer for the film to remind us of what we can expect when the film hits theaters this April. Whilst the trailer doesn’t show us a great deal of new footage, we do get to see a brief clip of the fight scene between Zachary Levi’s titular hero and Mark Strong’s villainous Dr. Sivana aswell as more shots of Billy learning…

It’s safe to say that in these days that happy stories surrounding comic fandom are few and far between. Just this past week, we have seen a group attempting to bring down the Rotten Tomatoes score for Captain Marvel ahead of its release next week. So it’s nice that every once in a while we get a little bright spot in the darkness and the latest example of this is possibly one of the brightest – and it involves Avengers: Endgame. It was revealed today that Charitable Organisation, One List One Life, has rented out an entire Sacramento Theatre so…
