Tom Holland has treated fans the to first image of himself as Spider-Man. 

The 24-year-old actor shared the first look at the new Marvel film Spider-Man 3 on his Instagram page. The image of the famous superhero was, however, sporting a very 2020 appropriate addition. 

The actor, who plays Peter Parker, was clad in the iconic spidey suit. Holland was also wearing a white PPE face mask. “Wear a mask, I’m wearing two…,” he captioned the behind-the-scenes pic.

The still untitled third installment of the franchise, recently resumed its production in Atlanta.

Joining Holland in the upcoming Spider-Man sequel is Benedict Cumberbatch, who will star as his Marvel character Doctor Strange. It is reported that Jamie Foxx is in talks to reprise his role of Electro in the film. 

Not much is known about the film as Holland, who has a reputation for revealing spoilers, has been secretive about the film’s details.

“I’m not gonna tell you anything about it because I’ve learned my lesson,” Holland said in a video posted to social media after he was delivered the script for Spider-Man 3 in late October. “But I’m so excited … I’m gonna read this now and I can’t wait.”

Spider-Man 3 is slated to be released in December 2021, five months after its initial date.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck, the co-writers and directors of the 2019 pic, are not set to return to the forthcoming follow up. Instead it is reported that Disney is in final negotiations with Megan McDonnell to pen the script. 

McDonnell has penned the Marvel-based series WandaVision, which is set to debut later this year on Disney+.

Marvel has a real-life superhero in the form of Paul Rudd. 

The Living with Yourself actor is known for portraying Ant-Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and came to its rescue when the studio’s films came under criticism. 

Renowned director Martin Scorsese recently referred to Marvel’s movies as “not cinema” during an interview with Empire.

“I don’t see them. I tried, you know? But that’s not cinema,” The Irishman filmmaker said. “Honestly, the closest I can think of them, as well-made as they are, with actors doing the best they can under the circumstances, is theme parks.”

Whilst speaking to Howard Stern, Rudd presented a different view. 

“Ultimately, you really care about relationships with people. It isn’t all just special effects–driven. You wanna see people and human behaviour and talking to each other,” he said. 

The actor continued, “In Ant-Man, I have a whole relationship with my daughter and the human struggles of being a superhero. I think we’re trying to deal with human issues and things that are relatable that are not just rides.”

Scarlett Johanson is pushing for a girl-power Marvel movie.

The Black Widow actress was the first female superhero to join the Avengers team. Johanson entered MCU in the Iron Man sequel and eventually fought alongside the Avengers as a core member. Since then, many female characters have joined the Marvel Universe including Captain Marvel, Black Panther‘s Okoye, and Guardians of the Galaxy’s Gamora, to name a few.

In Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame, many of these superwomen joined together to take on Thanos and his army. The all-female scenes were a big hit with fans and now, Johanson is backing an all-female Marvel movie.

“I don’t know what my future is in that world. Obviously, it’s a little more opaque for my character,” Johansson told Variety. “But that group of actresses is so incredibly powerful and when they come together, it’s explosive and unstoppable. So yes, I’m pushing for that. I think audiences want it and I’m definitely one of them.”

Scarlett Johanson will star as Black Widow in her first solo movie on May 1, 2020.

The Avengers franchise concluded earlier this year, but one question fans still want answered is why Captain Marvel barely made an appearance.

Brie Larson’s Captain Marvel was teased in the end credits of Avengers: Infinity War and was given her first stand-alone movie earlier this year. When it came to the final showdown, however, she was nowhere to be seen. Other than a brief appearance at the start of the movie and a last-minute swoop in towards the end, she was absent throughout.

In a new interview with Vanity Fair, writers Cristopher Markus and Stephen McFeely explained why the superhero had such a small part in the Endgame events.

Markus revealed that the main problem they had with Captain Marvel was that she is far too powerful: “She was always going to be in it, but we didn’t have much to go on. They had cast her and that was it. It is a tough balance to strike when you have a character that powerful who you’re going to bring in, and you don’t want it to seem like, well we just brought in this person who can clean the house that we couldn’t clean in the previous movie.”

He added: “We had to decide on a balance between not making it feel like a cameo but not having her around so much that she solved all of the problems for everybody.”

McFeely also commented: “The point of the second movie was saying goodbye to the original six Avengers, so their stories were gonna be way up here… It was not fair to the other six Avengers to have Captain Marvel come in and solve all their problems, it didn’t seem like good storytelling.”

We’re satisfied with their answer. Are you? Let us know in the comments below.

Taika Waititi is crossing the great comic book divide.

Most people are asked to nail their colors to the mast and choose Marvel or DC, but the New Zealand filmmaker has decided not to.

Waititi played the role of Korg in Thor: Ragnarok, which he directed in 2017. He then followed that up by reprising the role in this year’s final film in the current phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Avengers: Endgame.

Reports have now claimed that Waititi will be hopping across the metaphorical pond to the world of DC, where he will be joining the Suicide Squad sequel.

Production on the James Gunn feature is scheduled to begin on September 23rd, with Margot Robbie, Viola Davis, and Idris Elba already onboard.

But don’t worry, Marvel fans. Waititi will be back in the MCU to helm Thor: Love and Thunder, which will see Natalie Portman taking on the role of a female Thor.

The latter will be out on November 3rd 2021, while The Suicide Squad debuts on August 4th 2021.

All good things come to an end, and the head of Marvel Studios knows just that.

It was announced last week that Spider-Man and Marvel would be parting ways after a profit-sharing structure could not be agreed upon with Sony Pictures.

“It was a dream that I never thought would happen,” said Marvel Studios head, Kevin Feige. “It was never meant to last forever. We knew there was a finite amount of time that we’d be able to do this, and we told the story we wanted to tell, and I’ll always be thankful for that.”

Although it is sad that Spidey will no longer get to swing around with The Avengers, the actor behind Peter Parker, Tom Holland, is choosing to remain positive.

“Basically, we’ve made five great movies,” he told Entertainment Weekly “It’s been five amazing years. I’ve had the time of my life. Who knows what the future holds? But all I know is that I’m going to continue playing Spider-Man and having the time of my life. It’s going to be so fun, however we choose to do it. The future for Spider-Man will be different, but it will be equally as awesome and amazing, and we’ll find new ways to make it even cooler.”

At least Marvel won’t have to worry about all those leaked spoilers anymore…

Kit Harington is moving from one major franchise to another.

Just a few months after saying goodbye to his famous character Jon Snow, the Game of Thrones actor will be joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Several media outlets are reporting the news, even though no film or role has been announced as yet.

Marvel recently wrapped up the third phase of its Marvel Cinematic Universe with Avengers: Endgame, bringing to a conclusion the Infinity Saga.

The studio is now set to focus on new projects which include The Eternals starring Angelina Jolie and Richard Madden, as well as the Black Widow solo film.

However, as announced last week, Marvel and Sony Pictures failed to reach a profit-sharing agreement which would see Spider-Man stick around in the MCU.

Dark Phoenix bows to a very underwhelming $33 million at the domestic box office. 

The latest installment of Marvel’s X-Men franchise failed to convince moviegoers in an already low-earning nationwide box office. The low numbers earned the Simon Kinberg-helmed feature the title of the lowest opening in the franchise’s 19-year run, beating the previous title holder, 2013’s The Wolverine.

The superhero pic starring Sophie Turner, James McAvoy, and Michael Fassbender was beaten out by the family friendly animated The Secret Life of Pets 2, which collected $47.1 million domestically.

Dark Phoenix did do a bit better at the international box office with $107 million. There it beat the pet-centered pic that earned $16 million globally. 

Box office holdovers included Disney’s live-action Aladdin, which banked another $67.6 million worldwide, bringing its total to $604 million. Godzilla: King of the Monsters amassed $292 million globally. Paramount’s Rocketman rounds out this weekend’s top five with a total of $51 million.

Check out the top ten for this weekend’s box office. 

1. The Secret Life of Pets 2— $47.1 million

2. Dark Phoenix— $33 million

3. Aladdin— $24.5 million

4. Godzilla: King of the Monsters— $15.5 million

5. Rocketman— $14 million

6. Ma— $7.8 million

7. John Wick: Chapter Three–Parabellum — $7.4 million

8. Avengers: Endgame— $4.8 million

9. Pokemon Detective Pikachu— $3 million

10. Booksmart— $1.6 million

Kit Harington is moving from one major franchise to another.

Just a few months after saying goodbye to his famous character Jon Snow, the Game of Thrones actor will be joining the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Several media outlets are reporting the news, even though no film or role has been announced as yet.

Marvel recently wrapped up the third phase of its Marvel Cinematic Universe with Avengers: Endgame, bringing to a conclusion the Infinity Saga.

The studio is now set to focus on new projects which include The Eternals starring Angelina Jolie and Richard Madden, as well as the Black Widow solo film.

However, as announced last week, Marvel and Sony Pictures failed to reach a profit-sharing agreement which would see Spider-Man stick around in the MCU.

The Eternals have arrived.

The cast of the upcoming Marvel film was unveiled at San Diego Comic-Con, where the 4th Phase of the Marvel Cinematic Universe was also revealed.

Phase 3 ended with the events of The Avengers: Endgame, after 11 years and 23 movies.

Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige brought on stage the cast of The Eternals, which tells the story of a group of extremely powerful immortal beings who were created to defend Earth. That said, Thanos was one of them.

Amongst the line-up of stars who will be appearing in the movie is Angelina Jolie and Richard Madden. The pair will play Thena and Ikaris.

Joining them will be Salma Hayek, Kumail Nanjiani, Brian Tyree Henry, Lauren Ridloff, Lia McHugh, and Don Lee.

“This movie will allow those who have never felt represented in movies, in this case superheroes, to be represented. I love my diverse family,” Hayek said.

The Eternals is due to hit cinemas on November 6th, 2020.

Dark Phoenix bows to a very underwhelming $33 million at the domestic box office. 

The latest installment of Marvel’s X-Men franchise failed to convince moviegoers in an already low-earning nationwide box office. The low numbers earned the Simon Kinberg-helmed feature the title of the lowest opening in the franchise’s 19-year run, beating the previous title holder, 2013’s The Wolverine.

The superhero pic starring Sophie Turner, James McAvoy, and Michael Fassbender was beaten out by the family friendly animated The Secret Life of Pets 2, which collected $47.1 million domestically.

Dark Phoenix did do a bit better at the international box office with $107 million. There it beat the pet-centered pic that earned $16 million globally. 

Box office holdovers included Disney’s live-action Aladdin, which banked another $67.6 million worldwide, bringing its total to $604 million. Godzilla: King of the Monsters amassed $292 million globally. Paramount’s Rocketman rounds out this weekend’s top five with a total of $51 million.

Check out the top ten for this weekend’s box office. 

1. The Secret Life of Pets 2— $47.1 million

2. Dark Phoenix— $33 million

3. Aladdin— $24.5 million

4. Godzilla: King of the Monsters— $15.5 million

5. Rocketman— $14 million

6. Ma— $7.8 million

7. John Wick: Chapter Three–Parabellum — $7.4 million

8. Avengers: Endgame— $4.8 million
