The Dark Knight In Final Talks To Join The MCU Spider-Man Reboot?

Just a few weeks ago it was rumoured that 1989's Batman himself, Michael Keaton, was in talks to play the lead villain role in the upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe reboot of Spider-Man, titled Spider-Man: Homecoming. After that news got out, the rumour was put to sleep and nothing came out about it. Some said the negotiations fell through.......UNTIL NOW!!!
Today, word has got out that Mr Keaton, star of the critically acclaimed film, Birdman, is said to be in final talks to playing the main villain, wether it be The Vulture, as previously speculated OR......the MCU version of Norman Osborn, who will, as we all know, will at some point transform into The Green Goblin. The character of Vulture was on the cards as a main villain waaaaaaay back when Sam Raimi was in charge of the Spidey franchise. He wanted him as the lead villain for Spider-Man 4 and was to be played by the great John Malkovich.
The Vulture is an interesting character, as long as he's done right and not just a version of The Green Goblin, with wings. This, I am looking forward to.

Josh Brolin Has Been Cast As The Voice Of Thanos In The MCU!

"Men In Black 3" actor and one of my favourite male actors, Josh Brolin, has surprisingly been cast to provide the evil overpowering voice of galactic villain, Thanos in the MCU. He'll be making his first full length appearance in this years "Guardians Of The Galaxy" and then he'll move on to become the official front row villain in "The Avengers 3" sometime in 2017/18 in Marvel's Phase Three. 
Thanos was first seen at the end of 2012's "Avengers Assemble", played by Damion Poitier. He was real and made up with prosthetic make-up, but it's been rumoured that Brolin's full incarnation of the character will be CGI with only Brolin's voice being used to bring the rest of the villain to life. 
Personally I can't fricken wait to hear his voice as Thanos. Can't wait to see Thanos himself come to full life on the big screen in full form. Brolin will rock that role with his awesome voice.
