The very first thing we have to ask out loud is- “BUT WHAT ABOUT BLADE, HUH??” It’s true- we’ve been waiting for positive news for YEARS about Oscar winner Mahershala Ali’s daywalker film. It was originally announced during San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC) 2019, and we still haven’t gotten it yet. Starts and stops are not uncommon for big flicks, but Marvel Studios hasn’t really had a project like this one just not happen. Sure, some get reskinned or shuffled off to Disney+, but this was going to be a BIG film. Just recently there were reports of yet another “directional…

“LET’S GET DANGEROUS.” If you still know all the words to the theme song from Disney cartoon “Darkwing Duck,” have we got some news for you. Dynamite Entertainment is teasing yet another graphic novel collection, which will be launching an official Kickstarter soon. Back in 1991, a 4-issue series was published by Disney Comics, to coincide with the premiere of the cartoon series, “Darkwing Duck.” It wasn’t as popular as say….”Gargoyles,” but it certainly found it’s audience. Dynamite hasn’t released any info about what exactly this Kickstarter will entail, but we’re excited. From the campaign tease: “Calling all “Darkwing Duck” fans! We’re…

Because of this, his trainer and medical professionals urged him to delay the fight. “I want to thank my fans around the world for their support and understanding during this time. Unfortunately, due to my ulcer flare-up, I have been…

No information about what character or what project he was going to show up in was previously known. Today, news came that reshoots for the 4th “Captain America” film are underway, and with it, some answers to previously asked questions. Esposito (“Better Call Saul,” “The Mandalorian”) will appear in “Captain America: Brave New World,” alongside Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson/Cap. While no additional info was released about who he’ll be playing, we DO know he’ll be a villain. The film is set to open February…

It’s a bright day here. Aside from other news, we have word of the next possible larger-than-life franchise the one and only Chris Hemsworth may be leading. In case you didn’t know, the Aussie recently co-stared in George Miller’s 5th post-apocalyptic installment, “Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.” In it, he plays a bearded villain, who is anything but run of the mill. So of course the question of “what’s next” for him has been on everyone’s mind. Word from various sources is he’ll be headed for a big one. Earlier this year, Paramount Pictures confirmed a “Transformers“-“G.I. Joe” crossover movie is…

In a world where a popcorn bucket for “Dune Part Two” broke the internet and inspired a “Saturday Night Live” sketch, it was completely expected to see something outlandish for the upcoming Marvel Studios release, “Deadpool & Wolverine.” Stars Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman have been teasing this item for sometime, and we finally know what it’ll look like.

While maybe not as familiar a middle-Earth character as say, Frodo or Legolas, Tom Bombadil is an interesting one. We first meet him in “The Lord of the Rings” novel, when he helps the Hobbits. Rory Kinnear (“Penny Dreadful,” “No Time to Die”) will bring Old Tom to life in season two of “The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.” Prime Video released four first-look photos via Vanity Fair featuring Kinnear as Bombadil, along with Daniel Weyman as The Stranger. Season 1 of the show proved divisive among fans. Some felt it deviated too much from the existing…
