Sony has announced that Silver and Black will hit theaters on February 8th, 2019. This makes it the first comic book movie of that year; Fox previously set an untitled Marvel movie for the week after on February 15th. Production will begin sometime this fall.

During Marvel’s Comic-Con panel, they made a huge announcement! We now know more details on Marvel’s female lead film, Captain Marvel. We learned that the film will take place in the early 90’s, and will be the first Marvel film set in the past since Captain America: The First Avenger. Which is kind of fitting, wouldn’t you say?
