As Todd Phillips’ Joker continues its successful run at the box office, reports are still emerging about Jared Leto’s alleged discontent about another actor being cast as the Clown Prince of Crime.
In the wake of the recent drama between Sony and Disney over the future of Spider-Man, the dynamic between the two companies has seemingly changed, meaning that while Tom Holland’s web-slinger is still set to return for future MCU movies, it’s also believed that he will eventually show up in Sony’s own cinematic universe.
During a recent panel at ACE Comic Con, Tessa Thompson and Brie Larson were asked when we might see some lesbian characters in the MCU, and while the Valkyrie and Captain Marvel actresses were careful to give nothing away, their responses have still managed to send ripples across social media.
Right now, Brie Larson’s Captain Marvel is the only MCU solo star to have never been given a love interest, but ever since Carol Danvers’ big screen debut arrived in theaters earlier this year, the fans have continued to offer suggestions for the heroine’s first partner.
With the upcoming Thor: Love and Thunder, Chris Hemsworth’s title character is set to pass the hammer on to Natalie Portman’s Jane Foster, and right now, it’s unclear where that leaves the MCU’s original God of Thunder, who just might find himself headed for retirement from the superhero saga, or at least with a significantly smaller role.

Captain Marvel actress Brie Larson has repeatedly gone on record pushing for an all-female MCU team-up movie, and during a recent panel at ACE Comic Con, the Oscar-winner offered a suggestion for how the fans can help make it happen.
Almost two years on from the release of Star Wars: The Last Jedi, Rian Johnson’s divisive blockbuster remains a touchy topic online, and with the premiere of J.J. Abrams’ The Rise of Skywalker approaching fast, you can expect the discourse to get all the more intense in the coming months.
Like the Caped Crusader himself admitted in 2017’s Justice League, Batman’s superpower is essentially that he’s rich, and you can say more or less the same about his less broody MCU counterpart Iron Man. But if you’ve ever wondered which of these two heroes is the more loaded, a new piece from Screen Rant appears to have the answer.
