It seems we now have one more Avengers: Endgame tie-in product to add to the growing list of material showing our heroes in new white suits. In this case, Tony Stark is the one to wear the getup for a freshly surfaced Pop! figure.
Though The Last Jedi certainly left Star Wars: Episode IX with bigger plot threads to resolve, the unfortunate state of the Skywalker lightsaber is still an issue that J.J. Abrams’ upcoming trilogy-closer will have to find some way of dealing with. A prop photo that emerged last year, for instance, seems to imply that not only did the hilt of Rey’s weapon break in the events of Rian Johnson’s film, but its all-important kyber crystal is in a bad state as well.
A recent batch of set photos from the upcoming Birds of Prey offered an early glimpse of what looks to be the headquarters of Janus Cosmetics, the company run by Ewan McGregor’s character Black Mask, but as you may recall, Roman Sionis’ corporation was already teased as far back as 2017, in the opening minutes of Justice League.
The upcoming Bond 25 is set to serve as the grand finale for Daniel Craig's run as 007, and it seems that director Cary Joji Fukunaga is hoping to assemble a cast fit for the occasion. We've already heard this week that Bohemian Rhapsody star Rami Malek is in final talks to play the villain, and in a new report from Deadline, not only is this claim reaffirmed, but it's also said that fellow Oscar-winner Lupita Nyong'o is being courted for a role.
Last month, Deadpool co-creator Rob Liefeld announced plans for Major X, a six-issue limited comic book series that hits stores this April. Among the details teased for the project is the inclusion of an older version of Cable, with Liefeld recently unveiling a new design for Nathan Summers that includes a long beard and a top knot.
Last night, the news broke that Will Smith will not be reprising his role as Deadshot in James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad, and going by previous reports, he won’t be the only star of David Ayer’s 2016 film who doesn’t return for the sequel. But while Gunn’s upcoming DC flick is expected to serve as a soft reboot for the series, a source close to WGTC has told us that the movie will still have at least one familiar face in Viola Davis as Amanda Waller.
Fans are expecting big things from Iron Man in the upcoming Avengers: Endgame, which is looking more likely with each passing month to be the hero’s final outing in the MCU, and seeing how Marvel Studios likes to play the long game with their developments, it's only natural that theorists have been looking through Tony Stark’s personal history for signs of what’s to come.
Though Sylvester Stallone has already shared a generous amount of set material from the upcoming Rambo V: Last Blood, the cowriter and star of John Rambo's fifth and purportedly final outing hasn't been so quick to announce a release date. Nonetheless, it seems that Lionsgate is finally ready to let us know that Adrian Grunberg's action film is headed for theaters on September 20th, 2019.
Once Avengers: Endgame and the Sony-produced Spider-Man: Far From Home have made their way to theaters, fans are in for a slightly longer wait than usual before the next MCU adventure makes its way to the big screen, but in the meantime, some of the saga’s most familiar figures will be making a return via Disney Plus.
We’ve been hearing for a while now that James Gunn’s The Suicide Squad will serve a soft reboot for the series that will bring in a mostly new cast, but one character that the Guardians of the Galaxy helmsman’s script had apparently planned on including was Deadshot. And with Variety reporting last night that Will Smith has exited from the role due to scheduling conflicts, it seems that Warner Bros. may be in a slightly awkward position.
