We’ve been hearing for a while now that The Conjuring 3 will serve as a departure from the standard haunted house formula of the first two flicks, with a report from a couple of months ago alleging that the film will instead be centered around a high-stakes legal case. And if you need further assurance that this horror threequel won’t be more of the same, star Patrick Wilson has recently doubled down on previous claims that the follow-up to 2016’s The Conjuring 2 won’t be quite like anything The Conjuring Universe has offered so far.
Though we still have a couple of weeks to go before Aquaman arrives on North American shores, Chinese audiences will be able to see Arthur Curry’s solo debut in theaters as soon as this Friday, and so far, the signs are pointing to success.
If some Marvel fans ever got their hands on an Iron Man suit, they’d probably sleep in it, work in it, go to the movies in it, and generally never take the armor off until it was in desperate need of cleaning. Nonetheless, Tony Stark is usually a little classier than that, so when he isn’t flying into the fight, he generally uses more traditional means of getting from place to place. That being said, the new Audi reported to feature in the upcoming Avengers 4 would blend in just fine with the character’s high tech assortment of toys.
As the alleged premiere date for the Avengers 4 trailer keeps being pushed beyond our grasp, this is still looking to be a pretty busy week for MCU promotion, with the first teaser for Spider-Man: Far From Home reported to come out this Saturday. And while we’re still waiting for official confirmation on this promo-drop, it sounds like we could be getting a clear sign of what’s to come as soon as tomorrow.
The firing of James Gunn from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 has created quite a few complications for the MCU, among which is the issue that the film’s subsequent delay may well have left us hanging on the introduction of Adam Warlock teased at the end of Vol. 2. And while fans were speculating earlier this year that the character’s arrival might be coming as soon as last April’s Avengers: Infinity War, we now know that directors Anthony and Joe Russo had other plans.
The upcoming Captain Marvel looks like it could well be an important work in laying the foundations for further cosmic outings in Marvel's Phase 4, so it only figures that it shares some connections with the Guardians of the Galaxy movies. We’ve long known that Lee Pace will be reprising his role as the villainous Ronan the Accuser from James Gunn’s 2014 series-starter, and now it seems that we may also witness the return of a certain intergalactic police force.
Back in September, the first teaser for the upcoming Captain Marvel left a lot of casual MCU fans confused and a little shocked with its clip of Brie Larson punching an old lady in the face. This display of abuse towards the elderly became an instant meme, and now that the new trailer has offered some clarification that the assaulted woman was actually a Skrull in disguise, the internet is getting excited all over again about the clash between these unlikely adversaries.
Sometimes you never really know a person until after they’re gone, and while Nick Fury has been a cherished member of the MCU for many years, it’s only in the wake of his death in Avengers: Infinity War that we’re finally getting some confirmation from the latest Captain Marvel trailer that he is indeed a cat person.
If you’re reading this sentence, then chances are you’re already well aware that a sequel to 2017’s It is in the works, and that the name of this follow-up is, appropriately enough, It: Chapter Two. But what would seem like old news coming from you or me takes on an intriguing new context when author Stephen King is the one delivering the message. So perhaps it’s only logical that a seemingly mundane tweet from the writer is drawing an unusual amount of attention.
Mark Hamill has long made it clear that he won’t be answering any Star Wars: Episode IX questions on Twitter, but fans being fans, they just keep on asking, and every now and then, the actor takes the opportunity to have a little fun with his followers.
