General Marvel Movie & TV Show News

[GORDON]

He was never what I'd call a bodybuilder, he just had a lot of muscle mass.

[thibodeaux]

I can’t imagine that staying in shape is less pleasant than getting the makeup every day of shooting. Like, Gandalf had to get in the chair hours earlier than everybody else just to do the nose. This dude has to get his entire upper body painted.

[GORDON]

I assumed a lot of it was a latex mold.

The new Dr. Strange movie was completely rewritten during 2020.

Covid actually extended what the writer thought was 2 months to rewrite it to a year. Plus, he worked with Feige the whole time. So no excuses if it sucks...

I also did not realize Raimi was directing.

[Leisher]

Stephen Dorff trashes Black Widow (he hasn't seen it) and talks down about ScarJo and others.

Dorff seems like a bitter bitch trying to justify his lack of success with the lame "artist" excuse.

The best part of this is that the only role anyone knows him for is the villain in Blade, a movie based on a Marvel comic book.

[GORDON]

Advance word has been positive.

Hugh Jackman has people in a tizzy after posting an image of Wolverine's forearm and then later a picture of him with Feige.

I think what we're going to see is a bunch of cameos as Marvel explores the multiverse in this phase. I'm hearing "Multiverse of Madness" will probably be a must see.

Also, IF Deadpool 3 is filming at the time Hugh does this cameo...I mean, Reynolds keeps asking and asking and asking for Deadpool and Wolverine to be in a real movie together and they are great friends...

But they...I mean, wasn't there...that is...

It's why I said "real movie".

[Leisher]

It's the little details that really make a universe.

NoobMaster69 revealed! (He's the one that picked on Korg and who Thor threatened.)


Yes, he was actually in the MCU.

[Leisher]

Tom Holland has signed on for another trilogy, and a hint has already come out for #4:

[Leisher]

This piece seems like Tatum is angling to get back on the radar for the role of Gambit.

If he can nail the accent, he'd be perfect for it.

[Leisher]

Elizabeth Olsen just signed a new 7 year deal with Disney/Marvel, so The Scarlet Witch is going to be around for a bit.

Don't click the spoiler unless you watched WandaVision.

Probably means we're going to get more Vision as well. Remember, he is back and out there somewhere.

Just heard a very interesting theory about the new Dr. Strange movie and what it's going to mean to the MCU. I'll throw it under a spoiler tag, but I cannot recommend enough that you read this and then this if you really want to grasp what's happening. (Maybe even before you click the spoiler tag?)

It's your own fault if any of this info ruins your experience going forward.

Ok, so the theory is that Wanda, not our Wanda, has already said "No More Mutants". That may be what Xavier is referring to in the trailer when he says, "I think we should tell him the truth." If you don't get it yet, Wanda is CRAZY powerful. When she utters those words in the book, Strange is absolutely incapable of just reversing or breaking her spell. He states that it actually affected other worlds and dimensions...you know, like a multiverse... If you also don't know, Wanda and Quicksilver ARE mutants (Also, if you don't know, their daddy is Magneto.), but that has not been said or explained in the MCU yet. To this point they were described as being the results of experiments, however Wanda's abilities are clearly surpassing anything from that experiment. As Agatha said to her in Wandavision, "You're supposed to be a myth." Anyway, the theory is that another universe's Wanda already lived the "House of M" storyline and has said the words, which took away the mutants from the MCU. Mutants' history runs all the way back through creation, so their absence is a problem. A problem that would be easily solved by a spell finally getting broken that would show they've actually been here the whole time. I know, that might sound crazy. I mean, the MCU would never show a spell being capable of making everyone in multiple dimensions remember or forget something like a person existing...you know, like they JUST DID in SM:NWH. We all know mutants are coming to the MCU, this is just a theory on how that could happen within the next movie and it would make a lot of sense based on the story they've told to date. FYI, I'm thinking plain clothes Wanda from the trailer is the "big bad" in the movie and likely the one who uttered the words if this theory is correct. Excelsior!

[GORDON]

I've been seeing a lot of hullabaloo about Tom Cruise as alternate universe Tony Stark.

[Leisher]

I'll put my response under spoiler to be safe.

Yeah, the rumor is he'll be playing "Superior Iron Man", a member of the Illuminati. Their job is to watch over the multiverse and the speculation is that those chairs you see in the trailer is their meeting place. The breakdowns of that Strange trailer seem to agree T'Challa is sitting there (no idea who the actor/actress will be, but it's highly doubtful Boseman filmed the scene before his death) and Stewart's Xavier. Superior Iron Man is speculated because his Ultron is a success and those are Ultrons escorting Strange in the trailer. Plus, people think that's him fighting Wanda in the trailer or Monica Rambeau (Photon). Will Reed Richards (Mr. Fantastic), Namor (Marvel's Aquaman), Blackbolt (the leader of The Immortals), or anyone else be up there? There are 6 chairs... I do know that the shape sitting to the right of Xavier (from our view facing them) sure as hell looks like Dr. Doom...

[Leisher]

Russo Brothers are apparently going to make a Secret Wars movie.

Picture any hero or villain from any universe all fighting at the whims of Q.

I've already heard Andrew Garfield has signed a new three picture deal and it may include Secret Wars. He'll also be the Spidey that faces Tom Hardy's Venom.

[Leisher]

Not a movie, but on the heels of Daredevil returning I'm hearing Jon Bernthal's Punisher is also returning.

woot woot

Taika Waititi not returning for Thor 5 due to negative reaction to Love and Thunder.
