Here’s a link to the first teaser from “The Wolverine,” which I suspect is genuine because it shows footage than has, as far as I am aware, not been available prior (and there’s the fact that it appears to be from the Twitter feed of James Mangold, who’s directing the upcoming superhero film). Unfortunately, it’s […]
Marvel Studios and James Gunn have found their Starlord, and he is Chris Pratt. Most recently he’s starred in “Zero Dark Thirty” as well as “Parks and Recreation” on NBC. I haven’t seen ‘Zero Dark’ and don’t watch “Parks and Recreation,” so I have no idea who this guy is, though after reading on various […]
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that Joseph Gordon-Levitt is supposedly being considered for the role of Peter Quill on Marvel’s upcoming “Guardians Of The Galaxy.” That’s an interesting bit of news, though not for the reasons that are often quoted. If you read further, you’ll probably hear lots of mentions of his performance in […]
You might have heard that, as a result of the box office performance of “The Amazing Spider-Man”–which earned just over $750 million worldwide, on a budget of $230 million–has warranted a sequel. And in other news, the sky is blue, and dinosaurs have been gone (except Nessie) for a long, long time. This is good news […]
When I heard that Edgar Wright revealed a test footage for his upcoming Marvel Studios film, “Ant-Man”, I was jazzed. And the Internet, being what it is, made me reasonably sure that someone in attendance at the last Comic-Con would have filmed it despite being told not to (under penalty of being banned from future […]
This is so cool. According to Hollywood Reporter Joss Whedon is developing a television based upon S.H.I.E.L.D (Supreme Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division) for ABC. The best thing about this is that a S.H.I.E.L.D series can deal with more traditional threats as well as those of a super-powered nature. It’s uncertain if Whedon will […]
According to Collider, Shane Black’s “Iron Man 3″ is casting soon, so if you’ve never been an extra before, it’s worth considering. The last time I did it was on “The Dark Knight Rises” and that was a lot of fun (when you factor out that it was really cold, there was LOTS of running […]
The first trailer below my first two paragraphs is the official Russian trailer for “The Avengers.” For some reason the characters seem more rounded (as rounded as one can get in two minutes and 13 seconds) and less like they were just posing. It strikes me as odd because I would think that more Americans […]
More evidence of a circumstantial nature that Marvel (buttressed by the fairly deep pockets of The Walt Disney Co.) is preparing a feature film based on Doctor Strange, Master of the Mystic Arts. On May 19 I wrote that various sources believed that Tom Welling was being courted for the role by Marvel, despite being […]
