From the time Zack Snyder had to leave production of Justice League due to the tragic death of his daughter, speculation was rampant about how much his successor, Joss Whedon, would change about the film. Despite the fact that principal photography was pretty much completed, many believed that Whedon was going to give the film a major overhaul. It was rumored that he was drastically changing the film’s overall tone, focus, and even its ending. However, those rumors can finally be put to rest. Speaking to The Washington Times, producer Charles Roven describes the journey of making one film with two…

We all know and love Mark Ruffalo as the shy, awkward Dr. Bruce Banner, and his superhero alter ego, The Incredible Hulk. In fact, you’ve probably already seen him in Thor: Ragnarok, which hit theaters this past weekend. However, before Marvel made him a household name worldwide (and afterwards too, since he hasn’t “gone Hollywood”), Ruffalo was racking up critical acclaim in varied performances. Whether lead or supporting, indie or big budget, The Ruff always delivers. Let’s take a look back at a few gems, straight out of Kenosha. Begin Again (2013) Ruffalo is at his vaguely unkempt, but incredibly…

Disney recently announced the development of a streaming service, which will launch in 2019. It will have exclusive rights to the content of the Disney vault, as well as most new content going forward. (The future of Marvel’s Netflix shows is unclear, although it’s speculated that they will remain where they are for the time being.) But get ready for this. Disney boss Bob Iger has announced that they’re planning all-new live-action series. Both Marvel AND Star Wars shows. Have you recovered from your nerd overdose? Good, let’s continue. Under Disney’s control, both franchises have expanded pretty massively. So far,…

In an entirely unprecedented decision, Sony Pictures has decided to replace Kevin Spacey in the movie All the Money in the World – although it completed filming months ago. Recasts often happen after a project gets underway. Scheduling conflicts or creative differences can lead directors to replace actors, but It’s usually very early in the filming process. Otherwise, too much film is lost – and film is money in Hollywood. But to replace a principal actor in a completed production is unheard of. According to Deadline, Sony has decided the monetary loss is worth it for the removal of Spacey,…

Major Thor: Ragnarok SPOILERS follow in this article! This is your last warning. Still here? Then hopefully, you’ve seen Thor: Ragnarok already. The movie was awesome in so many ways. Despite being criticized by some as being too comedic (It did indeed have many humorous scenes), it is in some ways one of Marvel’s darkest films. For example, it’s far more violent than any previous Marvel Cinematic Universe entry. There are stabbings, shootings, impalings, meltings, and eyes being cut out. I was honestly surprised at just how much murder and maiming occurred on screen. Then, we have what has been…

The long-awaited first female-led film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe will soon be underway. According to a report from Omega Underground, Captain Marvel will officially begin production in February 2018. By the time it premieres, Captain Marvel will be the 21st entry in the MCU, and is scheduled to bring Phase 3 to a close. Marvel is hoping it will perform as well as DC’s awesomely girl-powered Wonder Woman, which has been a huge success in that universe. It’s off to a good start so far, casting Oscar winner Brie Larson (who won Best Actress for 2015’s “Room.”) She will…

The Disney Channel is taking a big step, introducing the first gay major character on the network. On the Season 2 premiere of the show Andi Mack, an arc will begin for a character named Cyrus, who realizes that he likes the same boy Andi does. The group are all 13, which is around the time we all started developing our first major crushes. It’s another big representation for the LGBTQ community, which is finally gaining mainstream acceptance. However, this move will likely face a lot of opposition from some viewers. They tend to turn to Disney for “family-friendly” programming.…

For several weeks, small leaked clues have led us to speculate that huge changes lay ahead for Clint Barton, aka Hawkeye, in future Avengers films. Now, we have the biggest piece of evidence yet. Set photos from Avengers 4, published on Weibo, show actor Jeremy Renner in a costume very different from the one we’re used to seeing on the master archer. すごい遠景だけどアベンジャーズ4(仮)のホークアイの写真出てた。今回の衣装は(も?)黒ベースで差し色が金になるのかな?https://t.co/nvi7x4zqGP pic.twitter.com/ageg2z3MQ1 — Weeping angel (@weepingangel013) October 25, 2017 While the majority of the outfit is hidden under a strategically placed trenchcoat, the wind has done us a favor and uncovered the telltale shinguards. That might not sound…

Gerard Butler has had an eventful life. The ruggedly handsome Scotsman started his professional life as a lawyer, but dissatisfaction and self-doubt led him down the dangerous road of alcoholism. Fortunately, within a few years, he had discovered acting, renewed his passion for life, and sobered up. What followed has been an interestingly varied career. Action, comedy, romance, horror, children’s, and sci-fi. Truth, fiction, period pieces, historical epics, modern biopics, and brilliant comic adaptations. Silly chick flicks, testosterone-fueled war games, and singular versions of iconic characters. The Phantom of the Opera, Attila the Hun, Dracula, and Beowulf. Shakespearean generals, animated…

The beleaguered Han Solo film is one step closer to seeing the light of day. Director Ron Howard (who stepped up when the team of Phil Lord and Christopher Miller were shown the door) posted a video reveal on Twitter, unveiling the film’s official title. “Hi. Well, as we wrap up production, I just wanted to take this moment to thank an incredibly talented cast and crew for all their hard work,” Howard says in the video. “And to the fans out there, I hope you’ve enjoyed the pictures that I’ve been sharing, pictures I’ve been taking from the set…
