Russo Brothers to direct the next two Avengers films

Marvel’s Kevin Feige just announced that the next two Avengers films will be directed by none other than the Russo Brothers. The announcement was made at Hall H of the San Diego Comic-Con (SDCC).

Together with the announcement of the Russo Brothers, Marvel also unveil the titles of the two Avengers films that the Russo Brothers will be directing: Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars. Both films will be released one year apart, on May 2026 and May 2027, respectively.

Anthony and Joseph Russo, collectively known as the Russo brothers, are credited with four Marvel films: Captain America: The Winter Soldier, Captain America: Civil War, Avengers: Infinity War, and Avengers: Endgame. All four Marvel films earned a total of $6.72 billion globally, so it’s not surprising that Marvel is bringing back the Russo Brothers to lead the team for their next two Avengers films.  

Marvel unveil Robert Downey Jr. as the next Big Bad Villain of the MCU

At the San Diego Comic Con, Marvel announced that the next big bad boss the MCU is none other than Dr. Doom, which will be portray by none other than Robert Downey Jr. Dr. Doom will replace Kang the Conqueror, as the main villain of the MCU, played by Jonathan Majors, Majors was booted off the MCU after being convicted of misdemeanor assault by a Manhattan jury last December 2023.

Together with the announcement, Marvel also announced the return of the Russo brothers who will be directing the next two Avengers film aptly named “Avengers: Doomsday” and “Avengers: Secret Wars.” It’s unclear if RDJ’s Dr. Doom will be a variant of Tony Stark, a result of the MCU Phase 5 – Multiverse Saga or the traditional Dr. Victor Von Doom.

Watch the Final Trailer of Deadpool & Wolverine

Marvel just release the last trailer for Deadpool & Wolverine, which will be in theater this 26th of July. Marvel was careful not to give up the premise of the film even though we can see Deadpool talking to Wolverine to help him save his world.

There are a number of cameo that confirms previous reports like the appearance of an older as Laura / X-23, who we first in Logon. Then there’s Toad, Aaron Stanford, reprising his role as Pyro in X2 (2003) and X-Men: The Last Stand (2006), we can also see Sabretooth from X-Men Origins: Wolverine.

Then there’s clip of Lady Deadpool, though, we still do not know who is playing who, since there have been speculation that Taylor Swift is Lady Deadpool, then there’s the rumor that Ryan Reynolds’ wife Blake Lively will play Lady Deadppool, then there’s this Wiki article that says Taylor Swift will be playing Dazzler. I guess we just have to watch the movie to know for sure.

Deadpool & Wolverine is written by Ryan Reynolds, Rhett Reese, Paul Wernick, and Zeb Wells. The film will be in theaters this July 26th.

Riot Games and Moonton Games have settled their Intellectual Property Dispute

Riot Games finally withdrew all lawsuits against Moonton for alleged copyright infringement.

History

The first time Riot Games filed a lawsuit against Mobile Legends was in 2017, for the supposed copyright infringement of their assets, in addition to stylistic similarities. Prior to this, Riot Games had reached out to Google to remove Mobile Legends from the Play Store. However, Moonton relaunched as Mobile Legends: Bang Bang before Google could take action. The court dismissed the copyright infringement lawsuit in 2017. Tencent, which is currently the parent company for Riot Games, again filed a case against Moonton CEO Xu Zhenhua for allegedly violating the non-compete clause in his contract. The lawsuit settled for $2.7 million. Despite Tencent’s win against Moonton, the case details never revealed if Xu Zhenhua did in fact infringe on copyright. Riot Games still filed lawsuits against Moonton in the following years for a variety of reasons, including title card similarities – the Mobile Legends Bang Bang title card was updated the following year as League of Legends released its new logo in 2019.

Moonton’s 515 Unite isn’t an exception to the similarities between the two franchises. It shares visual aesthetics with some sections of K/DA’s POP/STARS, and a closer examination reveals definite similarities in both the music and artistic style.

Just more recently, Moonton has released a new hero that closely resembles Riot Games’ Arcane character Vi. The new Mobile Legends hero Julian has been criticized by League fans as an amalgamation of League’s Sylas and Arcane’s Vi.

Moonton’s Guinevere Psion of Tomorrow skin also sparked comparisons, with its design having a striking resemblance to League of Legends’ K/DA Ahri skin.

Cult Classic Crow Is Getting A Remake 

Move over John Wick, a new revenge story soars!

The cult classic The Crow (1994) is getting a remake this year. The Crow (2024) stars Bill Skarsgård as the murdered musician-turned-avenger, Eric Draven.

The Crow (2024) Poster

This fresh take on a story of love, crime, and vengeance will especially delight newcomers. However, it also has a legacy to uphold. The 1994 film set a high bar that sequels couldn’t quite reach.

The Crow (1994) Poster

The Crow (1994) achieved cult status not just for its goth aesthetic, but also due to the tragic death of Brandon Lee during filming. A technical error caused a prop gun to fire a fatal shot, forcing rewrites and graphic alterations.

Despite these challenges, the film garnered a devoted following, positive reviews, and a global box office gross exceeding $90 million.

Watch the trailer below and see if Skarsgård can bring a new dimension to this iconic role!

Here’s the Official Trailer of Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba Season 4 – Hashira Training Arc

Aniplex USA just release the official trailer of Demon Slayer Season 4 – Hashira Training Arc. Unlike the previous trailer, this one includes actual footage from the series and as expected, it’ll be an extensive training for Tanjiro, Zenitsu and Inosuke, in order to become a Hashira, the Demon Slayer Corps’ highest ranking swordsmen and members.

To the Hashira Training…
The Hashira, the Demon Slayer Corps’ highest ranking swordsmen and members. The Hashira Training has begun in order to face the forthcoming battle against Muzan Kibutsuji. Each with their own thoughts and hopes held in their hearts, a new story for Tanjiro and the Hashira begins.

The trailer also confirmed the release date of the series, which will premiere on Crunchyroll on the 12th of May. Demon Slayer Season 4: Hashira Training Arc will adapt Chapters 128 to 136 of Koyoharu Gotoge’s manga of the same name.

Watch the Official Trailer for Parasyte: The Grey

Netflix just released the official trailer for the live action adaptation of the famous manga/anime Parasyte.

This film adaptation however does not have Shinichi as the main character. The film may possibly explore other characters from the manga. 

The trailer shows a female lead, starred by Jeon So-Nee, as she attempts to survive in a world ravaged by parasite-infested humans. The premise does have similarities to how Shinichi co-exists with his parasyte Migi.

Other cast members are new-ish faces in Netflix, but with rather diverse performance portfolios. Koo Kyo-Hwan takes on the role of Seol Kang-woo. The trailer doesn’t reveal much of his role but it looks like he will be a major supporting character. Singer-actress Lee Jung-hyun will act as part of a police force that will combat the onslaught of deadly parasites.

The trailer doesn’t reveal too much info, and this will be good news for would-be fans of the Netflix show. 

This is not the manga’s first live-action adaptation. The 2014 film Parasyte: Part 1, directed by Takashi Yamazaki, was followed shortly by Parasyte: Part 2 the following year.

In comparison to the first two films, this adaptation seems to be more visceral and has a darker undertone due to an urban setting and more mature characters.

Parasyte: The Grey will stream on Netflix starting April 6 this year.

Cannes Best Actress Jaclyn Jose Dies of Heart Attack at 59

The sudden loss of Jaclyn Jose saddened the Philippine Entertainment Industry. The cause of death was a heart attack. Jaclyn Jose, born as Mary Jane Santa Ana Guck, received international acclaim when she won Best Actress in Cannes Film Festival, becoming the first ever Filipino to receive it.

She starred famously in the Batang Quiapo drama series as the antagonist Dolores Espinas. Even before, she played antagonist roles convincingly well. Her family found her in her Quezon City home March 3, 2024. The family has stated they will share details soon, and is requesting privacy during their time of grief.

Jaclyn Jose’s role in Ma’Rosa (2016) was of a mother trying to make ends meet by selling crystal meth. She plays Rosa, a mother of three children. Her daughter Andi Eigenmann also played in the film as one of Rosa’s children.

Jaclyn Jose’s role in Ma’Rosa (2016)

Jaclyn Jose is originally from Angeles, Pampanga. She grew up with six siblings. Her mother was also an actress, as well as her sister Veronica Jones. The police say no foul play has been involved in the incident. The official statement from the bereaved family confirms the investigation.

Things That You Need to Know Before Watching Nimona

Netflix just released the full animated film Nimona on its channel four days ago. The story centers on Ballister and his shapeshifting sidekick, Nimona.

Nimona was Blue Sky Studio’s last project before shutting down. Blue Sky Studios is the team behind the widely successful Ice Age series, Rio, and Spies in Disguise.

Due to economic uncertainty, Blue Sky Studios had to shut down before they got the chance to finish the project. However, previous employees at Blue Sky Studios still worked on the project to bring it to life.

The film had been in the works since 2015, and the release date originally scheduled for a 2022 release. Disney also rejected the film, stating that it contained LGBT themes, as revealed by an interview by three former Blue Sky Studios employees.

In a fortunate turn of events, Annapurna Animation picked up the project and brought it back from development limbo. The voice cast for Nimona includes Chloe-Grace Moretz, Riz Ahmed, Frances Conroy, and Eugene Lee Yang.

The film received positive reception by the audience, scoring a high 7.5 in IMDb.

This news comes after Diesel previously announced “Fast X” would be the final chapter in the saga, but it seems plans have shifted.

Disney Plus’ new science fiction animated series Iwájú features a futuristic Nigeria

Disney just dropped a new trailer for its newest animated series Iwaju. Set in a futuristic Lagos, Nigeria, the animated series will explore themes of class divide and inequality.

Watch the trailer below:

The trailer reveals a young girl named Tola and her cyborg critter pet Otin. Otin is an Agama lizard, also called a rainbow lizard for their striking color patterns. Tola’s new cyber friend will be a hero of sorts as it becomes Tola’s protector.

Important to point out though: Disney did not animate Iwaju. The series is a collaboration between Britain-based company Kugali Media and Disney+. African artists, who comprise a majority of Kugali media, founded the company with the goal of telling African stories through animation and media.

Iwájú Series Poster

Iwaju’s creator, Ziki Nelson, takes inspiration from Lagos being a melting pot of cultures in Africa, and says that the city has a “distinct feel”.

The series will stream on Disney+ on February 28.

Opinion: Why Madame Web Is Caught in a Web of Bad Reviews

Madame Web is the latest “addition” to Sony’s Spider-verse. The Spiderman film franchise has been hugely successful thanks to amazing leads like Toby Maguire, Andrew Garfield, and Tom Holland.

However, it looks like not even Dakota Johnson’s acting skills can wrap the movie up nicely. We know Dakota Johnson as Anastasia Steel sold the Fifty shades fantasy well. Her personality bleeds into Anastasia Steele and she sets up the submissive role perfectly.

Additionally, Dakota Johnson’s dry humor is what makes her likable in interviews.

Madame Web Trailer

So why do audiences and film critics not like the latest Spider-verse “addition”?

To start, the trailer revealed a voice over by Cassandra Webb (Dakota Johnson) that wasn’t even in the film. While some audiences may not care about this minor detail, it could have been useful to include it. Especially since the antagonist had a major role to play on how Cassandra came to be.

There were some awkward lines in the movie as well that deserve a meme comparable to Anakin’s in George Lucas’ Star Wars. Anakin’s “I don’t like sand. It’s coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere.” is similar to “Hope the spiders were worth it, Mom.” In fact, the line has become a meme commodity for the internet.

Madame Web Film Poster

So bad dialogue aside, the directing also contributes to the film’s meme-worthiness. S.J. Clarkson did work on some episodes of successful series like Dexter, House, and Heroes. The director also worked on a Game of Thrones prequel entitled Bloodmoon, however, HBO didn’t air it. Most of these series have a tone vastly different from that of a superhero movie, and that’s probably the reason why Madame Webb just didn’t work.

While Madame Web is spinning out of control, one could wonder if the film’s meme status could reclaim it. Although it’s not a main Spiderman arc, Madame Web should be a solid reminder not to approach superhero movies the way Sony did Morbius.

From Marvel.com

For all intents and purposes, the movie is not a main continuity movie. For some film-goers, they eventually might grow to love Madame Web as its stand-alone film. Dakota Fanning does say we’ll love it and we’re going to see it twice.

Watch the Official Trailer of Netflix’s Damsel

Netflix just release the official trailer of Damsel, the streaming giant’s fantasy film featuring Millie Bobby Brown for the lead role.

The premise of the film may have already spoiled the film but what the trailer (embedded below) shows us is that it’ll be filled with action sequences, sword fights and lots of special effects, not to mentions all those beautiful scenery.

A dutiful damsel agrees to marry a handsome prince, only to find the royal family has recruited her as a sacrifice to repay an ancient debt. Thrown into a cave with a fire-breathing dragon, she must rely on her wits and will to survive. Millie Bobby Brown stars in Damsel.

Damsel Film Poster

Damsel is directed by Juan Carlos Fresnadillo and written by Dan Mazeau.

Below are the casts of the film;

  • Millie Bobby Brown as Princess Elodie
  • Angela Bassett as Lady Bayford, Elodie’s stepmother
  • Robin Wright as Queen Isabelle
  • Ray Winstone as the King
  • Nick Robinson as Prince Henry
  • Brooke Carter as Floria, Henry’s younger sister
  • Shohreh Aghdashloo
  • the “Dragon”

Damsel will be premiere on Netflix this 8th of March.

Wizard of Oz Spinoff Wicked Gets Two-Part Film Release

For viewers who haven’t seen the musical, this is their chance to see the world of Oz and Emerald City. This time, Dorothy is not the main focus (or is she?). The film offers a more personal view of Emerald City’s characters and their relationship. Elpheba, who is traditionally known as the Wicked Witch of the West, is getting a spotlight in this film as the focus shifts away from the classical protagonist and more into her personal journey.

The trailer also revealed big personalities. While Ariana Grande plays Glinda, much of the singing comes from other vocalists. Jeff Goldblum (Thor: Ragnarok) will play the sinister Wizard of Oz and Michelle Yeoh (Everything Everywhere All at Once) as Madame Morrible.

In addition to the spectacular cast, the teaser also shows intricate major set design which would be a feast for the eyes. In comparison to the Broadway Musical, the film fleshes out the environment of Oz in greater detail. Some glimpses in the trailer also showed iconic objects from the World of Oz, including the iconic ruby slippers Dorothy receives from Glinda.

Wicked will be the first of a two-part film. However, viewers will still have no clue of how the story is cut. The film is an adaptation of a musical adaptation. This musical adaptation draws inspiration from the 1995 novel “Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West” written by Gregory Maguire.

Wicked, the untold story of the witches of Oz, stars Emmy, Grammy and Tony winning powerhouse Cynthia Erivo (Harriet, Broadway’s The Color Purple) as Elphaba, a young woman, misunderstood because of her unusual green skin, who has yet to discover her true power, and Grammy-winning, multi-platinum recording artist and global superstar Ariana Grande as Glinda, a popular young woman, gilded by privilege and ambition, who has yet to discover her true heart.

The two meet as students at Shiz University in the fantastical Land of Oz and forge an unlikely but profound friendship. Following an encounter with The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, their friendship reaches a crossroads and their lives take very different paths. Glinda’s unflinching desire for popularity sees her seduced by power, while Elphaba’s determination to remain true to herself, and to those around her, will have unexpected and shocking consequences on her future. Their extraordinary adventures in Oz will ultimately see them fulfill their destinies as Glinda the Good and the Wicked Witch of the West.

Wicked will premiere on November 27, 2024.

Below are the casts of Wicked;

  • Cynthia Erivo
  • Ariana Grande
  • Michelle Yeoh
  • Jeff Goldblum
  • Jonathan Bailey
  • Bowen Yang
  • Bronwyn James
  • Ethan Slater
  • Keala Settle
  • Marissa Bode

Deadpool 3: Deadpool & Wolverine the film that will reset the MCU and that is a Good Thing!

Marvel Studios just released the teaser trailer for “Deadpool 3: Deadpool & Wolverine.” After mixed critical reception for some Phase 4 and early Phase 5 films, the “Deadpool & Wolverine” project presents itself as a potential breath of fresh air and the film the MCU might need to reinvigorate itself. It could also pave the way for full introduction of mutants, the X-Men, and other Marvel properties.

From the trailer itself, we get to see that the Time Variance Authority (TVA) will be featured in the film, which means that Deadpool and in some capacity, Wolverine will have the ability to go to different Marvel timeline and change the course of that particular timeline be it the past, present and future. Just imagine, the duo joining the avengers with their fight against Ultron or Thanos, or Deadpool snatching the Nano Gauntlet from Tony Stark and the one snapping his fingers. That will surely “change the history of the Marvel Cinematic Universe”.

Until we watch the fholeIt’s unclear which timeline the duo will “mess-up” and how but one thing is for sure, as the premise of the film goes “Deadpool will change the history of the Marvel Cinematic Universe with Wolverine.”

Deadpool & Wolverine is the 3rd Deadpool film and first under Disney/Marvel Studios. It is directed by Shawn Levy, who also directed a number of Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman films like Free Guy, the Adam Project and Real Steel. Deadpool & Wolverine is written by Ryan Reynolds, Rhett Reese, Paul Wernick, and Zeb Wells. The film will star Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman reprising their role as Deadpool and Wolverine, respectively, alongside Emma Corrin, Morena Baccarin, Rob Delaney, Leslie Uggams, Karan Soni, and Matthew Macfadyen. Aaron Stanford will also returns as Pyro, from the X-Men films and Jennifer Garner as Elektra Natchios.

The duo we’ve all been waiting for in the Marvel Cinematic Universe is out!

Marvel Entertainment has released an official teaser for the upcoming film Deadpool & Wolverine.

Watch the trailer below;

In the teaser video, it shows Wade Wilson’s birthday party and his subsequent abduction by the TVA. Fans of the Marvel Cinematic Universe would know that the organization was officially introduced in Disney’s limited series Loki.

The teaser also reveals Wolverine, however, it’s not positive if this iteration of Wolverine is the X-Men version from Fox Studios. Disney’s acquisition of Fox gives them rights over the X-Men characters, so this should not be an issue.

Argyle’s Mid-Credits Scene Reveals Spy Universe in the Works

Kingsman fans have a reason to celebrate as a potential crossover between Argylle and Kingsman might not be too far off.

Movie goers who stayed behind will enjoy a Marvel-esque scene bonus. When the credits roll, it’s interrupted by a flashback 20 years ago. Shown in the mid-credits is a young Aubrey Argylle entering what looks like a bar from the Kingsman movie.

Just after the Kingsman reveal, the customer orders a “cosmopolitan with a twist”. While the barkeeper and the young Aubrey exchange codewords, the former hands him a box with a weapon.

In an interview with Yahoo UK, Director Matthew Vaughn stated that he wanted the movies to intersect. Consequentially, the crossover was a possibility as MARV Studios produced the two films.

Theory-crafters are also insisting similarities between Elly Conway’s cat to the pop singer’s Scottish Fold. However, Matthew Vaughn clarified that Elly Conway is not Taylor Swift.

Spoilers ahead: Argylle’s plot revolves around introverted spy novelist Elly Conway, played by Bryce Dallas Howard (Jurassic World).

Foundationally, the story focuses on how Elly survives a deadly game of spies and assassins as she discovers that her stories coincide with real-life events.

Some big names were cast for Argylle – Henry Cavill (Superman, The Witcher), John Cena, Dua Lipa, Samuel Jackson (Avengers), and Bryan Cranston (Breaking Bad), just to name a few.

The director hasn’t overtly stated a shared cinematic universe for the two movies. However, former Kingsman: The Secret Service cast member Sofia Boutella makes an appearance in the film. The actress’ appearance contributes to reinforcing the idea that there is indeed a shared spy universe.

Here’s the official trailer of Argylle;
