Director Darren Bousman is right smack dab in the middle of shooting next year’s Saw reboot, which is set to star Chris Rock and Samuel L. Jackson. But unlike with most modern franchise productions, Bousman has lifted the veil of secrecy, keeping fans posted on its progress through pictures he’s uploading to Instagram. That leads us to today’s on-set snapshot, which gives us our first look at Rock’s police detective character.
So many of Marvel’s X-Men have blue skin, and though you may not have realized it before, good luck not noticing it now. In a recent report, Dr. Eric Spana, a biology professor at Duke University, points toward blue colorization in the animal kingdom to explain the X-Men’s go-to skin colorization, which is often used to depict “other-ness” in the Marvel universe.
Sources have told We Got This Covered that Marvel won’t be moving forward with an Ant-Man 3 anytime in the near future, nor is Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) or Hope Van Dyne (Evangeline Lilly) likely to pop up at all until after the next Avengers film, whenever that may be.
Hobbs & Shaw, the latest entry in the long running, billion-dollar grossing Fast & Furious franchise, is racing toward theaters this weekend, but not everyone is happy with the direction it's heading in. In fact, quite a few longtime fans still take umbrage with Jason Statham’s Deckard Shaw, whose effect on the series predates his first appearance by three films, running all the way back to 2006’s The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift and the gruesome murder of one beloved Han Seoul-Oh.
Ben Affleck's The Batman will forever be one of cinema’s great ‘What ifs.’ For a while, it looked like the Academy Award-winning screenwriter-director was all set to bring his own spin to the iconic comic book hero that he portrayed in Zach Snyder’s Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice and Justice League. Now, thanks to cinematographer Robert Richardson, we know exactly where the movie would have been set.
If I’ve got one spoiler-filled complaint about Spider-Man: Far From Home, it’s the apparent death of Jake Gyllenhaal’s villainous Quentin Beck. Though he didn’t have the most original motivation, Beck’s Mysterio was one of the most visually interesting and sickeningly cruel antagonists within the MCU to date. Considering Peter Parker’s affinity for not killing, it looked like Gyllenhaal was going to have a long working relationship with Marvel Studios, but then Beck’s arrogance gets the best of him and he winds up getting himself killed.
If there’s one thing we know about Tessa Thompson’s Valkyrie moving forward in the MCU, it’s that the new King of Asgard will be on the lookout for her new queen in Thor: Love and Thunder, and now Lady Sif herself, Jaimie Alexander, is throwing her name into the mix.
Now that Avengers: Endgame has officially conquered the all-time box office record, Disney has set its sights on dominating the home video market. To build hype around its July 30th digital debut and next month’s Blu-ray release, Marvel has been dropping all sorts of behind the scenes featurettes and much ballyhooed deleted scenes. In fact, just this morning, another cut scene made its way online, and though it’s shorter on emotion, it’s still big on laughs.
