Latest Marvel News: ‘The Flash’ gets humiliated by a $200 million hit with the same shtick as a ‘Secret Invasion’ star plants the seed of an MCU-changing twist

The Flash‘s fate is just going from bad to worse. After failing to earn more than a 20-year-old Marvel dud in its first weekend at the box office, the deadweight DC blockbuster is now being humiliated over the fact another movie based on comics from the House of Ideas did its whole shtick almost a decade ago, to much superior effect. Elsewhere, a Secret Invasion star launches a worrying new fan theory two days before its launch and Sony reveals the first look at its first live-action Spidey flick since Morbius.

“Trust no one”: Did a Secret Invasion actor just tell us we can expect their fan-favorite hero to be outed as a Skrull?

Secret Invasion at long last premieres on Disney Plus this week, and one long-lasting MCU star has just thrown us for a loop by potentially hinting at a major twist that would literally turn the franchise upside down. When discussing the whole “who’s a Skrull?” situation on the red carpet, War Machine himself Don Cheadle teased “Trust no one” and exited stage left. Wait, is he trying to tell us that Rhodey could turn out to have been an alien imposter this whole time? That would be one ballsy way to belatedly explain why he stopped looking like Terrence Howard after 2008’s Iron Man.

The Flash gets roasted all over again for failing to live up to a decade-old non-MCU Marvel classic

The Flash‘s speedster scenes have already been negatively compared to an MCU flop from a couple of years ago, but now it’s gained an even more embarrassing Marvel comparison as folks have realized that, instead of spending your well-earned cash and valuable time seeing The Flash in theaters, you might just want to stick on X-Men: Days of Future Past again. Both are superhero films about a hero who goes back in time, has to team up with a reluctant ally in order to get the timeline back on track, and stop a villain he knows is destined to terrorize the planet… but only one of them has epic speedster action.

Kraven the Hunter trailer suggests it could be a good movie… but a not a good Kraven movie

The first trailer for Kraven the Hunter is finally here… and, well, it’s probably not going to be as bad a cinematic experience as Morbius but it may miss the point of what makes the Spider-Man villain such a popular character in the comics all the same. Making Aaron Taylor-Johnson’s anti-hero a vigilante who can talk to animals? We did not see that coming. The Avengers: Age of Ultron looks good in the role, for sure, but it’s hard to view him as an authentic Kraven. That poster recreating the Kraven’s Last Hunt cover, though? That’s nice.

Whether it brings an Across the Spider-Verse character into the MCU or not, Secret Invasion is fast approaching, so watch this space for more Marvel updates.
