We’re getting closer to the release of Judge Dredd, which means more photos circulating for the remake. Yes, there was a film loosely based on the comic years ago starring Sylvester Stallone; yes it was a very cheesy but fun movie, but it barely took things from the source material.
The remake stars Karl Urban as Judge Dredd and co-stars Olivia Thirlby as rookie cop Cassandra Anderson, with Lena Headey as the antagonist, Ma-Ma.
Actor Lucas Till, who portrayed Alex Summers (Havok) in X-Men: First Class sat down and talked about his character and things he wants in the sequel that is in the works. A major thing he wants? The inclusion of a particular love interest for Havok.
Seven years ago WB and DC tried to get a Justice League movie into production. It went as far as casting the parts of Batman, Wonder Woman and the Flash. But as we can all tell, the film didn’t pan out.
So it’s no surprise that once Marvel kicked things heavily into gear for The Avengers that WB would have another try at bringing their superhero team on the big screen. In fact, WB anticipated the success of The Avengers and hired Will Beall to write the Justice League screenplay.

If you haven’t watched The Avengers yet, (who in this world hasn’t seen it yet?) definitely do not read . But if you have, this is a rumor that could end up true, so read on if your curiosity is too strong.
Spoilers ahead:
There’s no slowing down Marvel Studios. Filming for Iron Man 3 is underway, with snippets of information and photos making their way online. Directed by Shane Black, the third movie follows Tony Stark’s narcissistic good times after the events in The Avengers.
The Dark Knight Rises co-writer David Goyer recently said in an interview that Bane wasn’t the first choice for villain in the third installment. In fact, the studio wanted Leonardo DiCaprio to portray the Riddler.
So not only did The Avengers dominate the box office worldwide since its release, but Disney and Marvel intend to take it one step further. They will transfer their film to NASA to uplink to the International Space Station for six cosmonauts currently in orbit.
