This year, we finally got some movement on DC Films’ Green Lantern Corps, which will unite Hal Jordan and John Stewart. David S. Goyer and Justin Rhodes are writing the script, which is based on a story by Goyer and Geoff Johns. Warner Bros.’ casting shortlist for Hal Jordan reportedly includes/included Armie Hammer, James Marsden, and even Ryan Reynolds. Now, we may have a director. According to That Hashtag Show, Rise of the Planet of the Apes director Rupert Wyatt has signed on to direct Green Lantern Corps. (Turns out Tracking Board EiC Jeff Sneider teased this a couple weeks ago.) His next film, Captive State, is in post-production now, and his schedule…

The next installment of the main X-Men series, Dark Phoenix, will see the returns of many characters from previous films. Among them is Erik Lensherr/Magneto, played by Michael Fassbender. In the last three films, Lensherr started out as an ally to Charles Xavier and his team of mutants, before leaving to pursue his own path for mutant civil rights. From there, he has frequently served as both ally and enemy to the X-Men, resorting to whichever fits his agenda. So, will this continue in Dark Phoenix?Nerdist has uncovered some potential plot details for Dark Phoenix, and they offer some hints at Magneto’s role in this particular story. Some possible mild spoilers…

Another day, another box office milestone achieved by DC Films’ Wonder Woman. The critically acclaimed superhero movie remained in the domestic box office’s top five this weekend, while it continues to soar worldwide. Wonder Woman grossed an estimated $16.1 million this weekend, placing it at #4. That’s only a 35.4% drop from last weekend’s gross. Even with a slew of new releases this weekend such as Despicable Me 3, Wonder Woman continues to maintain incredibly strong legs. So far, Wonder Woman has grossed $346.6 million domestically and $361.8 million overseas. This brings its worldwide total to a whopping $708.4 million. It is currently the third highest grossing movie of the…

The Spider-Man character has been adapted multiple times for the big screen. We have Sam Raimi’s iconic trilogy, Sony’s “Amazing“ series, and now the Marvel Cinematic Universe iteration. But the one film that stands above the others is 2004’s Spider-Man 2, the middle installment of the Raimi trilogy. It’s not just consistently considered the best Spider-Man to date, but still one of the best of the genre. And in my personal opinion, it’s still the best movie based on a Marvel property. Spider-Man 2 has all of the elements people love about superhero movies and executes them all perfectly. The protagonist’s conflict between pursuing an ordinary life and leading a career…

We first met actor David Harewood on Supergirl as Hank Henshaw, the mysterious head of the DEO. It was later reveals that Henshaw was actually presumed dead, and assuming his identity was J’onn J’onzz, aka Martian Manhunter. In season two, Henshaw was resurrected by Cadmus as “Cyborg Superman,” giving Harewood a dual role on the show. Unfortunately, Cyborg Superman only played a minor role in season two. They never gave him a costume, they never fleshed out the character, and they only gave him a little mask. So, Supergirl didn’t exactly do the villain justice, and it turns out Harewood agrees. In an interview with a young fan at Supanova…

DC Films’ Wonder Woman is one of the biggest winners of the summer so far, receiving raving reviews from both critics and audiences. It has also maintained exceptionally strong legs at the box office, proving that the general audience really loves this movie. Now, the film has set a new record for the franchise. This week, Wonder Woman became the highest grossing installment of the DC Extended Universe at the domestic box office. As of yesterday, the film grossed $330.5 million in North America, narrowly passing Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice‘s $330.4 million. Meanwhile, Suicide Squad grossed $325.1 million, while Man of Steel made $291 million. Overseas, Wonder Woman…

We have a couple of casting updates on two of the next movies in the X-Men universe. First off, according to The Hollywood Reporter, Rosario Dawson has dropped out of Josh Boone’s New Mutants. Replacing her is Alice Braga, whose credits include I Am Legend and Predators. It’s unclear why Dawson exited the project. Braga will play Dr. Cecilia Reyes, who can generate a protective bio-field around herself, but there’s apparently more to her than meets the eye. The movie also stars Maisie Williams, Anya Taylor-Joy, Charlie Heaton, Henry Zaga, and Blu Hunt. Production is expected to begin in July. New Mutants is set to hit theaters on April 13th, 2018. In…

Without a doubt, the X-Men franchise is one of the most important at 20th Century Fox. In addition to two trilogies and two Wolverine movies, the studio recently launched the wildly successful Deadpool and Hugh Jackman’s last Wolverine outing, Logan. Fox also tried to relaunch Fantastic Four a couple years ago, but the less we say about that, the better. Next year, Fox will release a whopping three X-Men-related films: New Mutants, Deadpool 2 and X-Men: Dark Phoenix. And now, the studio has set released dates for a lot more movies. Fox (via Exhibitor Relations) has updated its release schedule, adding release dates for six untitled Marvel movies that span from 2019…
