Many of us were left rather heartbroken when Han Solo was killed off in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, and the pain was definitely amplified (SPOILERS) when Luke Skywalker died at the end of The Last Jedi. We watched as Skywalker vanished into the force after protecting his friends from the First Order’s attack. Unlike Solo’s death though, we were left with more ambiguity surrounding the death of Skywalker. In all honesty, we do expect we will see Luke return to our screens in future films. Whether it be as a flashback to his time training Kylo Ren at the…

Since it was released in mid February, Marvel’s Black Panther has been smashing records. Now, it’s crossed over the $1 billion mark at the worldwide box office. Directed by Ryan Coogler with a script by Coogler and screenwriter Joe Robert Cole, the film stars Chadwick Boseman as T’Challa (aka Black Panther) and Michael B Jordan as Eric Killmonger, with several others filling out the supporting cast. Black Panther spent 24 years stuck in development, but it would now seem that each of those years was worth the wait. After the film opened, it quickly became one of the highest-rated superhero…

We all know us fans tend to get rather passionate around superhero casting news, so it’s no surprise that when it leaked that Kristen Wiig would feature in Wonder Woman 2 as the villain, the backlash started almost immediately. Just a few days later, director Patty Jenkins confirmed it was indeed true that Wiig would play Cheetah in the film. Diana Prince herself, Gal Gadot, has warmly welcomed the former Saturday Night Live star, saying: I’m SO excited welcome on board Kristen! This is going to be WONDERful! https://t.co/FqQ191m1s0 — Gal Gadot (@GalGadot) March 9, 2018 Fans have a history of…

Over the years, we have seen several changes to the X-Men costumes. A new costume design has been revealed on the set of X-Men: Dark Phoenix and it includes some interesting changes. The suits will not be the same as the ones we saw at the end of Apocalypse. Rather, they will be based on the 2000’s New X-Men comic book series. From the on-set shots we have seen, the costumes look pretty sweet and are definitely an improvement on the last time we saw the gang all together. The new leaked photo from on the set of Dark Phoenix…

With the release of Avengers: Infinity War now less than 2 months way, speculation is rife as to which Avengers we will be saying goodbye to. Marvel boss Kevin Feige has warned fans to “be careful what they wish for” in a new interview about the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. According to the Marvel Studios head, the deaths of some of heroes will indeed be permanent. We have long been speculating as to who will, and who won’t, survive the epic battle with Thanos. One thing we do know is that Black Panther and Spider-Man are some of…

The Marvel Cinematic Universe would not be where it is today without Kevin Feige. It definitely would not be in it’s current state without the president of Marvel Studios. From the very beginning back in 2008, the producing powerhouse has been a driving force in what is said to be Hollywood’s greatest superhero franchise. Thanks to Avengers: Infinity War and it’s impending sequel, Avengers 4 (set for release in 2019), Feige is about to oversee a cinematic finale unlike any other. Whilst Disney and Marvel are already preparing for life after Thanos (Spider-Man Homecoming 2, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3),…

We have long been promised that Avengers: Infinity War will be the ultimate showdown between good and evil. The million dollar question we are now asking is, who lives and who dies? Who will survive the Infinity War? It’s almost certain that in the film, directed by Joe and Anthony Russo, one or two major characters (at least) will be killed off to raise the stakes. We have been promised high stakes in the past, but this time we are told Marvel are not messing around. With Thanos and his Black Order imminent, we are inclined to believe them. Robert…

Black Panther has been a smash hit across the globe, grossing over $909 million worldwide. There are some, though, to whom the film is especially meaningful. During an interview, actress Sandra Bullock has spoken about what the film means to her as a mother. Sandra has two black adopted children, 3 1/2 year old Laila and 5 year old Louis. Bullock feels that the movie contains a powerful message, especially for son Louis. She stated to Access: “I’m so grateful to Marvel because about five years ago, my son asked me if there were any brown Legos and I said,…

With Black Panther recently hitting our cinema screens, many are saying that he has by far the best looking costume in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The costume is sleek and understated, making it timeless. It is also incredible to watch in action. Throughout the comic books, we have seen many adaptations of Black Panther’s costume. It will be interesting to see how the costume continues to evolve throughout the hero’s adventures on screen. Slight changes were made to the design of the costume following his appearance in Captain America : Civil War. However, it looks like early concepts of the…
