Amidst the current holiday festivities, many a Marvel fan will likely have one eye on the New Year and the various MCU developments heading our way in the coming months. As a matter of fact, even while wishing his followers a Merry Christmas, Robert Downey Jr. himself found a way of linking the day to a certain metal-clad hero.
Though this year’s Avengers: Infinity War saw Doctor Strange turn to dust, it seems all but inevitable that we’ll see the Sorcerer Supreme once again in Avengers: Endgame, and the same can apparently be said of his loyal friend Wong.
Though it’s evident that Thanos still has at least one more MCU adventure ahead of him, the Mad Titan seemed perfectly content by the end of Avengers: Infinity War to live out the rest of his days in solitude and quiet.
In this last quarter of 2018, we’ve seen a fair few pics of Jake Gyllenhaal on the set of the upcoming Spider-Man: Far From Home, but so far, the actor’s head has always looked bare and exposed, without the trademark fishbowl helmet that comic book fans will know to associate with the character of Mysterio. But while we still haven’t got a proper look at the MCU equivalent of the Quentin Beck headwear, one fan has at least offered their interpretation of how the accessory might look.
Ryan Reynolds may have a reputation for trolling his fellow actors, but in the last week, the Deadpool 2 lead has taken a lot more ridicule than he’s given out, with Josh Brolin being among the latest to take some shots at his co-star for his new ad campaign with Aviation Gin.
As Once Upon a Deadpool’s two-week run in cinemas draws to a close, the official Deadpool Twitter account still has new promotional material to share, including this cutely illustrated Russian poster that was apparently posted at the request of Colossus.
Though filming has reportedly wrapped for Wonder Woman 1984, we still have a long wait before Patty Jenkins’ next film arrives in cinemas thanks to Warner Bros.’ surprising decision to delay the release by 7 months. But to put that setback into perspective, there are currently concerns that the sequel to last year’s Wonder Woman might not make the trip to Chinese theaters at all.
Regardless of how much truth there is to the ongoing theories that Avengers: Endgame will see the death of Tony Stark, it’s clear that next year’s release will be of crucial importance in the arc of the Phase 1 hero, as the journey that began with 2008’s Iron Man reaches its point of culmination.
Supreme Leader Snoke wasn’t the most sympathetic of figures, but Andy Serkis apparently had some affection for the character, making it a saddening moment for the star when the villain was struck down about two thirds into Star Wars: The Last Jedi.
John Wick 3: Parabellum is set to further expand the assassin-filled world of Keanu Reeves’ titular killer, and that includes the introduction of Anjelica Huston as a character who reportedly played an important role in the upbringing of our hero.
