We told you earlier today that director Tim Miller has officially walked away from the sequel to the superhero smash Deadpool. Reportedly, the problem was friction with star Ryan Reynolds, over differences of opinion on who should play the massive time-traveling mutant Cable. Miller wanted Friday Night Lights star Kyle Chandler, while Reynolds (rightly) argued that, while talented, Chandler is completely wrong for the part. And now, it seems that this wasn’t the only point of contention between the two. This morning, before news of Miller’s departure broke, Ryan Reynolds (the king of all smartasses) posted a sarcastic Tweet. It…

Legendary Pictures announced yesterday that two screenwriters, Michael Dougherty and Zach Shields, will be working together to write the Godzilla 2 script. And now, Screencrush is reporting that Shields will also be the director for the sequel to the 2014 hit. He may not be a household name yet, but he has directed Krampus and Trick’r’Treat, as well as co-writing Superman Returns and X-Men 2. The film was origianlly going to be directed by Gareth Edwards, who helmed the first Godzilla. But his commitment to the upcoming Star Wars film Rogue One forced him to drop out, and Legendary had…

With its premiere just two weeks away, Doctor Strange is set to introduce us to a whole new world, and quite a few unique characters. There’s Strange himself; his mysterious mentor, the Ancient One; his nemesis, Mordo; and his loyal sidekick, Wong. And now, we know that at least one of Strange’s cohorts will be joining him in Infinity War. Actor Benedict Wong (who plays – who else? – Wong) told Comicbook.com today that he will be along for the intergalactic ride when the Avengers set out to destroy supervillain Thanos. “I’m thrilled that I’m going to be in Infinity…

Goldberg is officially back, and ready to kick ass. Twelve years after walking away from the WWE forever (or so we thought), the man who always asked “Who’s Next?” gave us the answer tonight: Brock Lesnar. The monosyllabic Lesnar, who uses Paul Heyman as his mouthpiece (because, you know, words), issued a challenge to Goldberg through his vociferous advocate last week on Raw. After coming out to a massive ovation from the crowd (gotta love it when the “holy shit” chant gets going), complete with his trademark spark shower and menacing smoke-breath, Goldberg proceeded to tell us what we…

With a new Power Rangers film on the way, and Voltron’s resurrection on Netflix, we thought you might enjoy this awesome fan-created video, which shows the Voltron Force going toe-to-toe with the Power Rangers’ Megazord. This was clearly done in the spirit of good fun, as evidenced by the spoof-like dialogue and the presence of hilarious YouTube stars like Austin Watson (aka WWE’s Xavier Woods). However, the fight itself is all business, with the two massive robots kicking ass in orbit. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HNIyztmU8dk Who do you think should win this mechanical smackdown? Watch the video, and tell us your thoughts!

Before we all knew what a mess it would become, the role of Hal Jordan, aka DC superhero Green Lantern, was a coveted part among the 30something pretty boys of Hollywood. Names on the shortlist reportedly included Ryan Reynolds, Justin Timberlake, Bradley Cooper, and future DCU Joker Jared Leto. Reynolds, of course, ended up winning the part. Timberlake and Cooper have both admitted to losing out on the role, but Leto has never mentioned it one way or the other. https://twitter.com/Borys_Kit/status/787141853988528128 But on Friday night, at the 30th annual American Cinematheque Awards, Bradley Cooper was a presenter. Before handing the…

I should start off by admitting my bias. I’m a total Godzilla fangirl. I collect figures, statues, posters, and pretty much anything else I can find with him on it. I even have a cat named Kaiju. That being said, however, I can still see flaws in his films when they present themselves. This movie isn’t perfect, but there are several things it gets very, very right. This is Godzilla’s 31st cinematic outing, and the first from the legendary Toho Studios (creators of the character) since 2004’s Final Wars. With so many incarnations already familiar to the moviegoing public, the…

Comic fans were excited to find out that Baron Zemo was going to be the primary villain in Captain America: Civil War. He’s quite diabolical in the comics, so he was sure to be a thorn in the side of the Avengers in the midst of their infighting. However, he ended up having a very different look in the film than he did on the page, leaving some comic fans understandably disappointed. But, as it turns out, there was a valid reason for the change. In the comics, Zemo wears black tactical gear, and a purple mask which hides his…

When wrestling icon Goldberg was added to the video game WWE 2K17 a few months ago, it started a lot of head scratching. Most of his legendary career took place in rival promotion WCW, with only a short stint in the ‘E before retiring in 2004. His last match was at WrestleMania 20. So what’s the point if adding him now? Unless………. We all know that wrestling retirements are about as permanent as soap opera deaths. So the rumor mill started up, and it hasn’t stopped since. In fact, the flames have only been fanned by both Goldberg himself, and…

Lately, it seems we get new Wolverine news every day. And today is no different. The official Instagram account for Hugh Jackman’s final Wolvie film, Logan, revealed today that one of the villains will be Donald Pierce. https://www.instagram.com/p/BLYrdGoj57A/ Pierce is a cyborg who was once a member of the Hellfire Club. After their defeat at the hands of the X-Men, he leaves and becomes the leader of a group of marauding cyborgs known as the Reavers. The Reavers are huge thorns in the side of the X-Men – especially Wolverine, who they actually once crucified just to make a statement.…
