Following the critical and commercial success of X-Men: Days of Future Past, pretty much everyone expected X-Men: Apocalypse to be every bit as big, with many predicting it would become the first instalment of the franchise to reach that coveted $1 billion mark at the worldwide box office.
Last month, Spider-Man finally joined the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Tom Holland suited up and swung into action in Captain America: Civil War. Next up for him is solo movie Spider-Man: Homecoming from director Jon Watts, while it's thought that the iconic superhero will also factor into the two-part Avengers: Infinity War.
It's been said that Warner Bros. only decided to move forward with Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice days before the announcement was made at Comic-Con. They clearly didn't put a lot of thought into the matter then, but the prospect of finally having these two heroes meet and jumping straight to Justice League clearly appealed to them after Man of Steel.
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice wasn't well received by critics and has divided comic book fans, but even the movie's biggest detractors will no doubt be tempted to check out the upcoming R-Rated Ultimate Cut which is set to hit Blu-ray next month.
Arrow star Willa Holland recently expressed her displeasure at the divide between the DC Films and TV Universes, and now Stephen Amell has somewhat more diplomatically addressed his possible future on the big screen as Oliver Queen. As of right now, the big and small screen DC Comics adaptations exist in very separate worlds, but could that change?
Josh Trank's Fantastic Four reboot was a critical and commercial flop, and possibly one of the most disastrous comic book movies in recent memory. The director disowned it days before it was set to be released (something analysts believe knocked a good $10 million off its opening weekend), and the insane behind the scenes stories we've heard were a PR nightmare for Fox.
Speculation surrounding who will play Captain Marvel has persisted for years now, with names like Emily Blunt and Rebecca Ferguson among the most popular suggestions from comic book fans and rumour sites alike. Now, however, we may finally have our Carol Danvers, as Variety reports that Brie Larson is in early talks to take on the role.
THR is reporting tonight that the cast of Steven Spielberg's Ready Player One has just grown a bit larger, as Silicon Valley star T.J. Miller has boarded the upcoming adaptation of Ernest Cline's sci-fi novel.
Captain America: Civil War recently became 2016's highest grossing movie, and after the disappointing reception to Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice and X-Men: Apocalypse, it will without a doubt remain the year's biggest superhero release despite upcoming movies like Suicide Squad and Doctor Strange.
It was revealed earlier today that Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is apparently undergoing reshoots because Disney are having some major concerns about how well the movie is testing. As a result, expensive reshoots have reportedly been scheduled for the summer, but now two reporters from the Hollywood trades have offered some clarification on the matter.
