Last week, director James Wan disclosed that the first trailer for Aquaman is imminent. Unfortunately, the Australian filmmaker was mum as to a specific date and time, but it would appear that the horror maestro is a man of his word. And that's because according to various sources, it was shown during Warner Bros.' CineEurope presentation earlier today, with an online debut expected to follow shortly.
It’s been a helluva year at the ticket booth for Marvel Studios, what with Black Panther ($1.34B) and Avengers: Infinity War ($1.99B) having entered the all-time worldwide gross top ten. Unfortunately, however, the success of the former has been somewhat overshadowed by the sheer domination of the latter at the box office.
With the Anthony and Joe Russo-directed blockbuster about to cross the $2 billion plateau at the worldwide ticket booth - a feat only ever achieved thrice before: Star Wars: The Force Awakens ($2.068B), Titanic ($2.187B), and Avatar ($2.788) - the nineteenth MCU entry can now not only lay claim to a plethora of box office records but a viral one, as well.
Despite his latest pet project, Avengers: Infinity War, making cinematic history on more than one occasion this year - by way of an unprecedented $250 million-plus opening weekend stateside, and subsequently becoming the fastest film to reach the $1 billion plateau - president of Marvel Studios, Kevin Feige, isn’t too concerned about how the Anthony and Joe Russo-directed blockbuster will fare come award season.

The Canadian fanatic was recently awarded the Guinness World Record for “Most Marvel Comic Book Characters Tattooed On The Body” with an astounding thirty-one dramatis personae inked to his skin. Among the thirty-one pieces of artwork, which we’ve listed below for you to check out, some of the most obscure are Vision on one butt cheek and Spider-Man 2099 on the other.
Having seen Deadpool 2 cross the half-billion dollar mark at the worldwide box office last week, you couldn’t really fault Ryan Reynolds for taking himself a wee bit more seriously these days. Thankfully, though, this is not the case, and we’ve got the unabashed advertisement to prove it.
It’s incredible to think that had the test footage not “accidentally” leaked online in July 2014, effectively letting skepticism get the better of 20th Century Fox, the foul-mouthed mutant known as Deadpool would’ve never made it to the big screen. Although apparently, the studio wasn’t the only obstacle that the Merc with a Mouth had to overcome.
