Back in the first half of January, the star and co-writer of John Rambo’s fifth and purportedly final big screen outing stated his intention that the various pics will allow fans to follow along with the story. And while the images so far have seemingly been taken from the movie’s early passages when John is still living a quiet life on an Arizona ranch, this latest batch sees the plot beginning to kick into gear.

With the Disney/Fox merger on the horizon, many fans have expressed concern that the deal might force R-rated properties like Deadpool and Alien to soften their image.

The upcoming Hellboy reboot was always going to face an uphill battle earning the acceptance of fans, not least when actor Ron Perlman and director Guillermo del Toro have already spent two movies making the property their own.

James Gunn’s days at the helm of the Guardians of the Galaxy movies may now be behind him, but the fans continue to pore over his work in the hopes of finding any final Easter eggs.

When the inevitable news arrived earlier this week that The Punisher would not be renewed for a third season on Netflix, scores of fans took to Twitter to share their frustration, among whom was diamond-selling rapper Eminem.
Earlier this week, Gwyneth Paltrow confirmed that Avengers: Endgame will serve as her last major outing in the MCU, telling Variety that she’s “a bit old to be in a suit and all that at this point.” But while the Marvel franchise is about to lose one of its original stars, the actress last night took to Instagram to assure us that she’ll always be the Pepper Potts to Robert Downey Jr.’s Tony Stark.
After the ugliness that unfolded around 2016’s female-led Ghostbusters reboot, it was inevitable that any attempt at resurrecting the property for the big screen would be the subject of some controversy.
