Ryan Reynolds’ portrayal of Marvel’s Deadpool is beloved by fans and critics alike, so it should come as no surprise that there’s been a lot of questions regarding just what will happen to the character now that Marvel Studios is in control of the character following the Disney and FOX merger. There have been a lot of rumors, and even teases by Reynolds himself (one of which showed a picture of the actor at Marvel Studios), but nothing concrete – and the latest rumor is anything but that – but still interesting, nonetheless. Keep in mind, though, it’s just that…

In a world of uncertainty and relentless delays, Hollywood may just have the gem that brings people back to theaters. While the world is still dealing with the COVID-19 global pandemic, and America is in the middle of one of the most tumultuous presidential elections of all time, the Earth’s most popular form of escapism, the cinema, is struggling to re-open to the crowds of yore. Many films have been delayed by a year from their original release date, and rumors have it that some major theater chains might close back down til 2021. Like a white knight on a…

Ever since the massive, Academy Award winning success of the animated masterpiece, Spider-Man: Into The SpiderVerse, came out, fans have contemplated what a live action version of this film could be like today. After all, we are now on our third incarnation of a live action Spidey in the currently untitled Spider-Man 3, and all of them happening within a 20 year span. So, in theory, we could get three Peter Parkers from different realities, or a multiverse, coming together to fight a huge issue/villain. With the return of J.K. Simmons as the iconic J. Jonah Jameson and the news…

The world is still reeling from the COVID-19 global pandemic, and the entertainment industry is trying to adapt. Theaters have tried reopening, but to little effect. So, the streaming services have stepped up to become the end all, be all when it comes to new movies. Many films have gone straight to everyone’s homes, like Disney Plus releasing Mulan on their service, films like Bill & Ted Face The Music simultaneously releasing in theaters and On Demand, and Trolls: World Tour establishing Universal’s plan for future home releases. Now, HBO Max is getting in on the home release market for…

It is really hard to miss this obvious and blatant pun here, so I’m just going to lean right into it: The latest casting news for Spider-Man 3 is…shocking! Now, with all that is going on in the world today and the craziness that is an entertainment industry trying to get back to some semblance of normal, news has been few and far between – as much of it is just speculation at best. Even when the story comes from a very reputable source, you have to take it with a grain of salt until otherwise confirmed by the studio.…

There has been a whole lot of Marvel news lately revolving around the Disney+ streaming service. The Marvel Cinematic Universe is expanding to connected series on the service, and we’ve gotten updates on WandaVision with a new trailer, production restarting on Falcon and the Winter Soldier, and lead casting news for She-Hulk. On top of that, lots of casting news has come out for Ms. Marvel. Now, the most important casting news has come out, as Marvel has finally cast the lead for the series and we now know who will be playing Kamala Khan. It’s none other than Iman…

There was a time when another actor was up for the role of Captain America, the role that ultimately went to Chris Evans. Evans embodied the character like no other, rivaling the ‘perfect casting’ of Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark/Iron Man. Evans was actually a worrisome casting for fans at first, knowing him only for minor comedy roles like Not Another Teen Movie. But, he shut every doubter up immediately once he hit the big screen as Steve Rogers, and went on to being a perfect live action representation for Marvel’s perennial hero. However, he almost didn’t get the…

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has become the standard bearer for not only comic book movies, but arguably movies in general nowadays. The most successful connected film franchise ever, the MCU has broken ground in many ways. As they look to their future, they are trying to be more diverse and inclusive in their films. We’ve got female led films like Captain Marvel and the upcoming Black Widow solo prequel film. We’ve gotten LGBTQ+ representation in several films, including a trans character in Spider-Man: Far From Home and gay characters in the upcoming films, Thor: Love & Thunder and Eternals. Now,…

The CW’s Arrowverse has brought many of DC’s greatest heroes to the small screen with shows like Arrow, The Flash, and more. They are even giving the Big Blue Boy Scout, Superman, his own CW series here shortly. However, nothing lasts forever. Stephen Amell and the Green Arrow took a bow after nine seasons. Ruby Rose walked away from Batwoman after just one season, but is being replaced. And now, it would seem that the Arrowverse isn’t big enough for two Kryptonian powerhouses, as Melissa Benoist’s Supergirl is ending at the end of Season 6. The Hollywood Reporter has the…

Stop me if you’ve heard this one before: The COVID-19 global pandemic has caused show/movie X to halt their production as the world deals with this terrible illness. The entertainment industry is trying to get back to some semblance of normal, and are slowly getting back to work to get shows and films back on track. Marvel Studios is one such company working to get the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s Phase 4 ready and available to fans. Unfortunately, we were bombarded with some bad news recently when the solo Black Widow movie was pushed back again, now hitting theaters in May…
