Phase One of Marvel’s shared universe concluded with The Avengers, and it left people wondering if Phase Two would ramp up the cameos and inclusion of more superheroes in the upcoming films. The first movie to usher in Phase Two is Iron Man 3, and Kevin Feige of Marvel Studios shared a few words about the film:
Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel is approaching completion — and after Marvel’s success with The Avengers — Snyder is being asked if his movie is the beginning of Warner Bros.’ and DC’s own shared universe towards a Justice League film. He didn’t give a clear answer, but who can blame him? There’s still a lot of groundwork for Justice League and Snyder’s focus should stay on his version of Superman.
The highly enjoyable series Community has lost one of its cast members. Comedic actor Chevy Chase made a mutual agreement to part ways with the show. It came as no surprise really, since Chase had ongoing problems with the producers and the direction of his character. Luckily for the sake of the show, Chase will make one last appearance in the season finale.
Disney and Lucasfilm are fast at work to lay down the groundwork for the third Star Wars trilogy. As previously reported, Michael Arndt is writing the screenplay for Episode VII — but it isn’t the only film entering pre-production. Things are set in motion for episodes VIII and IX with an update on two more screenwriters joining the trilogy.
The equally loved and despised Twilight series is heading towards an end, so Robert Pattinson has been asked what his plans for the future are; in particular if he’d want to act in the seventh episode of Star Wars. And like any sane actor — or person for the matter — Pattinson expressed he’d love to act in the franchise. The kicker? Pattinson clearly couldn’t keep himself from cracking jokes.
Heist films are a lot of fun, especially when filmmakers put a spin on things. In this case, Now You See Me follows four magicians who utilize their skills to perform a robbery. The group is known as the Four Horsemen and are portrayed by Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Isla Fisher and Dave Franco. After a robbery that includes distributing a rich man’s money to their audience, an FBI agent played by Mark Ruffalo investigates.
