Now that we know Savitar will finally be unmasked next week, it looks like the producers of The Flash have decided to give us something else to talk about. In the past, a guest appearance by Wentworth Miller's Captain Cold wouldn't have seemed out of the ordinary, but you have to admit that it's now a pretty big deal.
Despite Christian Bale having said he never wants to venture into the superhero genre again, it looks like Arnold Schwarzenegger could have some company when it comes to actors up for returning to the Batman film franchise. But unlike the aforementioned former supervillain, this guy, like Bale, has donned the iconic cape and cowl before, thus ears shall perk.
To say that we've been keeping our eye on the Barbara Kean character as of late is an understatement. It's kind of funny, because none of us dreamed that the woman we assumed would go on to marry Jim Gordon when this series began would one day (likely) morph into an icon like Harley Quinn. But such is the strange beast that is Gotham.
By now, you've probably become well acquainted with "The Button," a crossover incorporating both Batman and The Flash, which is set to unlock one of Rebirth's greatest mysteries. And considering that it encompasses only four issues, it'll be over before you know - but do expect the finale to arrive slightly later than originally planned.
While this development doesn't seem like too much of a shocker, that doesn't make it any less noteworthy. By now, you're probably aware that DC is waist-deep in "The Button," an important crossover incorporating both Batman and The Flash, brought to us by current series writers Tom King and Joshua Williamson, respectively. And while these two gentlemen have no doubt exchanged countless phone calls and emails with each other and DC editorial in order to hash out the specifics of the story, they were originally slated as keeping to their own books.
If there were ever a story to file under "most bizarre creative decisions of television's modern era," it'd certainly be this one, as MTV has opted to scrap two years worth of continuity that they've established for their Scream series and move forward with a completely new direction in mind.
Although we've got about four weeks to go until the season finale of Arrow hits airwaves, buzz surrounding said episode has reached critical mass. No doubt due to it being the culmination of the deadly game Prometheus has set in motion for the past year and because we're seeing Deathstroke return in some capacity, all eyes will be on Oliver Queen come May 24.
As we continue to live in a digital age, it becomes exceedingly harder for anyone to keep their cards close to their vest, especially if you work in the entertainment industry. When I was a kid, you'd have to wait to read about the latest buzz surrounding upcoming superhero productions until the newspaper arrived or in a magazine such as Starlog. These days, however, word can get out faster than an official announcement can be made, a recent example of which is a developing situation involving Supergirl.
It could certainly be argued that Venom is poised to be a bigger deal than he's ever been before. Think about it: Not only is Eddie Brock once again one with the symbiote, but his first big screen solo outing will finally hit theaters in 2018. In addition to that awesomeness, his eponymous comic book will soon revert to its classic numbering - the first of many Marvel titles to do so in the coming months - with its milestone 150th issue.
In a matter of weeks, the Marvel Cinematic Universe will have delivered its first contribution to 2017, that of the highly anticipated Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. By now, you've probably heard the news that it's tracking for a massive domestic opening and seems to be faring well with critics, but what of those increasingly important overseas numbers?
