Fans have been worried about Ant-Man’s fate for a bit now. When Phase Four was announced, there were continuations for many of the Avengers. But Kevin Feige didn’t even mention Scott Lang, Hank Pym, nor Janet Van Dyne or Hope Van Dyne. Rumors circled that Ant-Man 3 was canceled. Paul Rudd wanted fans to rally for the film. And other rumors said that the size-changing heroes would get a Disney Plus show instead. But after cryptic words from Marvel’s newest CCO, newest leaks chisel in a date for Ant-Man 3. Tweeter, Charles Murphy, has offered leaks before. Now his newest…

The first stand-alone Joker movie has been deemed a success. The collaboration between director, Todd Phillips, and actor, Joaquin Phoenix have created a chilling version – even for a character who’s chilling enough. When the movie was announced, it was said to be an Elseworlds version outside of Warner Bros’ DCEU. While there are connections to a bigger DC Universe, the film indeed lets you know that this doesn’t exist within the world where Ben Affleck played Batman. However, it was a new actor for the role nonetheless. And it was not too long after we saw another Joker in…

Vin Diesel’s Bloodshot arrives in February. But evidently, filming wrapped a year ago. With so much as an action figure, it looked like the film was probably going to get pushed back. I mean, New Mutants was filmed years ago, and that movie still hasn’t been released yet. Well, the film based on the Valiant comic might be back on track. A teaser was released, which promises us a full trailer soon. The official Twitter account for the Bloodshot movie posted a teaser trailer. https://twitter.com/Bloodshot/status/1185813147032195072?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1185813147032195072&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fbloody-disgusting.com%2Fmovie%2F3589862%2Fwatch-vin-diesel-get-hits-face-blasted-off-grotesque-bloodshot-trailer-tease-video%2F As you can see, it features the title character getting his face blown off.

Marvel fans were shaken by Martin Scorsese’s words about the MCU. Since he first spoke out, he’s narrowed his thoughts down from comic book movies in general to specifically Marvel. Then, Robert DeNiro, who is a constant collaborator of Scorsese’s agreed with him. However, DeNiro narrowed it down even further to say that Marvel’s de-aging effect looks “cartoony.” I guess he was to say that the same technology used in their The Irishman looks better. But now, I think we’re a little desensitized to these slams. So much that we just shrug our shoulders when another legendary filmmaker like Francis…

Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson was announced as Black Adam years ago. Actually, it was probably around the time when Ben Affleck was announced as Batman. Now, with Affleck playing the DC hero in three movies, and Johnson in none, a new Batman has been announced. Shazam was released, but Johnson’s villain/anti-hero was missing. Johnson was still attached as a producer. And shortly after the film was released, Johnson revealed that since writing the script, it was decided to split Billy Batson and Black Adam’s stories. But when will we see his long-awaited portrayal? Well, I guess the actor just announced…

Hugh Jackman has hung up his claws as Wolverine. And now, Fox’s long-running series of X-Men movies is over. Mostly due to the fact that Disney bought Twentieth Century Fox. But also because Fox closed the book themselves. Regardless of my opinions, Dark Phoenix was a critical failure. The studio had another movie in the pipeline. But they couldn’t settle on when they wanted to release New Mutants. Also, there were other plans for more Marvel movies, like Gambit and Dr. Doom. But that ship has sailed, and now Marvel Studios will reboot the franchise. Although, Ryan Reynolds will get…

When Natalie Portman first signed on to portray Jane Foster in the MCU, she was unaware she would eventually become the title character of the franchise. And while she was missing from Thor: Ragnarok, and Chris Hemsworth’s arcs in his other appearances, she will be back for Thor: Love and Thunder. In the comics where Foster became Thor, the character was already battling cancer. And each time she transformed, the chemotherapy was negated. Director and Writer for Ragnarok and the upcoming Love and Thunder, Taika Waititi, expressed his interest in using the cancer element. The filmmaker has been doing rounds…

Whether you agree with Sony’s Marvel franchise or not, they look to be building their rival to the MCU. However, they’ll get to play nice as Tom Holland is said to be shared between the two. The SUMC is hard at work on their next two installments: Venom 2 and Morbius. Unfortunately, Silver and Black has been pit into Developmental Hell. I’m not sure which Marvel characters will join Jared Leto. But over in Tom Hardy’s realm, he will be antagonized by Woody Harrelson’s Carnage. And where we reported that the film will feature his girlfriend, Shriek, it looks as…

It’s already old news now that Martin Scorsese doesn’t like Marvel movies. We’re not entirely sure what he thinks about DC movies. But he was a producer on Joker before he left his responsibilities to someone else. His recent comments have all been brought to light in promoting his new film, The Irishman. Now, frequent collaborator and The Irishman and Joker star, Robert De Niro, looks to have sided with Scorsese. DeNiro was with Scorsese at the London Film Festival when the filmmaker called Marvel out by name. Screen Daily covered his comments about comic book films. When asked about…
