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.

FN-2187 Set To Join The Cast Of Black Panther?

John Boyega aka everyone's favourite Stormtrooper who said fuck you to The First Order, Finn, is the latest name on the cards to join Chadwick Boseman aka Black Panther in his first solo outing in the MCU in 2018.
It's unknown what role Boyega is up for, wether it's good or bad, but he's joining an amazingly growing cast of black American actors such as Michael B Jordan (Fantastic Four's Human Torch) and Lupita Nyong'o (Star Wars - The Force Awakens's Maz).
Rise & Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes star and Mo-Cap expert, Andy Serkis, is rumoured to be returning to the role of Ulysses Klaue aka Klaw, a character that was introduced in 2015's Avengers - Age Of Ultron.

True Detective Star Joins Marvel's Doctor Strange!

Rachel McAdams is the latest actor/actress to be confirmed to join the highly anticipated Doctor Strange movie for Marvel and Disney's MCU. She will be joining Sherlock Holmes himself, Benedict Cumberbatch, who will be playing the title role of Doctor Stephen Strange.
There is no word as of yet which role she will be taking on in the 14th film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Word is that she will be playing Clea, who is Strange's lover in the comic book series.

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. 

"Guardians Of The Galaxy" First Trailer Is Fucking Awesome!!!

First of all, Chris Pratt is mega funny in this trailer and I know die hard fans of "Guardians Of The Galaxy" will probably hate this casting and the way he'll play Star Lord but I personally think it's brilliant, it's brilliant and the film WILL be brilliant.
Anyway, this first teaser trailer is amazing. The film just looks like one big sci-fi comic book adventure. It's like "Star Wars" meets "The Avengers" and BOOOOOM, we've got the "Guardians Of The Galaxy". Not much is given away about the plot but you kind of get the just that it's good versus evil and all that but in space. We have the dumb hero wannabe, Chris Pratt, who seems doppy and nothing in the beginning but later has to rise up to be a hero in the end to save the world and well the galaxy from the bad guys, Ronan, The Collector and Nebula. Then we have the walking, talking tree, Groot, who is Rocket's "house plant" and companion. And then it's Drax The Destroyer who looks fucking badass and I think Dave Bautista was perfect for the role. Finally there's the very sexy and amazing "Star Trek Into Darkness" beauty Zoe Saldana as the ass kicking green alien Gamora.
Anyway, just check out the trailer and see what you think guys and gals: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b3isCLVghoI

Jack Sparrow Being Considered For Role As Doctor Strange?

"Pirates Of The Caribbean" star, Johnny Depp, has been rumoured to be in, close to final, talks about taking on the role of Doctor Stephen Strange in the upcoming MCU entry, "Doctor Strange".
The wizard superhero is said to be taking over command of The Avengers once Robert Downey Jr takes off the Iron Man suit after "Avengers 3". This could all change if Downey Jr stays on past "Avengers 3" and decided to go ahead with a couple of more "Iron Man" sequels, which is rumoured to be going ahead in the coming years.
If Depp signs onto the role of Strange, he's said to be signing onto a six-picture deal with Marvel Studios. Three of his "Doctor Strange" films and if the rumour of him taking over from Iron Man, then he'll be in three "Avengers" films too.

Paul Rudd Cast As Ant-Man And Michael Douglas Cast As Hank Pym!

"Anchorman" star and all out Hollywood funny man, Paul Rudd and well, just fucking Michael Douglas, have both been cast in Edgar Wright's 2015 entry into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, "Ant-Man". Rudd has been cast as the films leading superhero, but it's unknown which version of Ant-Man he'll play seeing as Douglas has been cast as an aged Hank Pym. It's assumed that Rudd will be playing Scott Lang's Ant-Man.
Douglas as mentioned that he's been dying for a role in a Marvel Comics film, or in fact, any sort of comic book film to be honest. The film's director and co-writter, Edgar Wright has said that we will see Douglas's Pym in action at the beginning of the film back in the 60's and then the story will fast forward to Scott Lang's story in the present day.

Paul Rudd And Rashida Jones Up For Lead Roles In "Ant-Man" Film?

So this is some very interesting casting but rumour has it that Paul Rudd and Rashida Jones are up for the lead roles of Ant-Man and The Wasp in Edgar Wright's upcoming 2014 comic book adaption of "Ant-Man".
It was rumoured that either Joseph Gordon Levitt or Paul Rudd were up for the role of Hank Pym aka Ant-Man. I for one would rather see Rudd play Ant-Man. Rudd seems like the stronger candidate for the role but Joseph Gordon Levitt is young and could carry on the planned franchise for years to come. Then again we could have another Robert Downey Jr situation on our hands and Edgar Wright does cast Rudd, who's at the age of 44.
Rashida Jones will be awesome as Janet Van Dyke aka The Wasp. She's smart, she's sexy and she just looks like she could pull the role of excellently.

"Hangover" Star Cast As Raccoon In "Guardians Of The Galaxy"

Ok, so I'm a wee bit behind on the recent movie and tv news because I've been super busy with things but now hopefully I'll be back to posting daily news again.
So, "Hangover" bad boy Bradley Cooper has been cast to provide the voice of "Guardians Of The Galaxy" animal hero, Rocket Raccoon. I think it's going to be weird hearing his voice coming out of a CGI raccoon, while fighting bad guys and aliens. It'll be fun to see though. I've always seen Cooper as the funny man in a film. I haven't yet seen any of his dramatic roles but will check them out soon enough.

COMIC-CON: "Avengers 2" Get's Official Title!

Whilst at COMIC-CON, "Avengers" director and GEEK genius Joss Whedon confirmed that his 2015 "Avengers" sequel will be called "Avengers: Age Of Ultron". It's called this because classic comic book villain Ultron will be the films lead villain before it's assumed Thanos will take on Earth's Mightiest Heroes in the third film.
On the note of Thanos, he's been confirmed to show up in next years "Guardians Of The Galaxy". It's not been confirmed if he's one of the lead villains or if he's just showing up to make himself known again.

Is Doctor Strange Taking Over From Iron Man As Lead In Further "Avengers" Sequels?

After it was confirmed that Robert Downey Jr was returning to the role of Tony Stark aka Iron Man in "Avengers 2" and "Avnegers 3", an insider close to the MCU has stated that Marvel are getting Doctor Steven Strange set up to be, well basically "being groomed to be the next Iron Man". 
Seeing as Robert Downey Jr really can't go on forever, looks like Marvel are already possibly making BIG plans to not recast him, but just move on without the character and have Doctor Strange lead the Avengers, which again is rumoured to feature the next gen of them, which makes total sense in my eyes. 
After this news, it's assumed that Strange WILL be making an appearance in "Avengers 3" to lead him into his own movie or to set up for "Avengers 4" and the next gen of phases. 

Robert Downey Jr Is Back As Tony Stark In "Avengers" Sequels!

It's a proud day when I can report that the great Robert Downey Jr will indeed be returning to the role of Tony Stark aka Iron Man in Joss Whedon's "Avengers" sequels. That's right, not only has he signed on for "Avengers 2", but he's also signed on to "Avengers 3" too.......AMAZING!!! The only downer is that in this contract, there's no sign of an "Iron Man 4" sadly, but hey ho, this is good enough.
I personally think that at some point in the MCU, Robert Downey Jr's Tony Stark/Iron Man will probably take a back seat and let the next generation of Avengers come in and take over. As much as I love Downey Jr as Tony Stark, he really really can't stay in the role forever.

Singer and Fox have found their actor for their Quicksilver whereas Whedon and Marvel haven't. "America Horror Story" actor Evan Peters will be playing Quicksilver in "Days Of Future Past". "Kick-Ass" star Aaron Taylor-Johnson is rumoured to take on the role of Whedon's Quicksilver, but nothing has been confirmed. Whedon also plans to have Silvers twin sister Scarlet Witch in his "Avengers" sequel also along with Quicksilver.
