6 Actors Who Should be the New Spider-Man


Some big news has been unveiled a couple of weeks ago involving ol' Spidey and Marvel. Spider-Man is coming home! (well sort of). Lets Explain!

Earlier, Sony Pictures (who owns the screen rights to Spider-Man and Company) decided to partner up with Marvel Studios and bring Spider-Man to the famous Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). This is gigantic news regarding big studios working together and bringing together something the fans always wanted. They announced he will show up Captain America: Civil War and then a new solo film on July 28, 2017 that will go back to high school years. This means recasting Spider-Man unfortunately.

We are still a little hurt that Andrew Garfield will be leaving the role because he was Peter Parker. Can Marvel and Sony cast someone better? We have been researching for them and have come up with a few choices that should get a look at by them when the time comes.

Check out the full list and even a Bonus person!

The full 3-minute trailer has made its way online today and gave more insight to what exactly the series is about. It looks very well done and might be very interesting to see where the series will lead us. Best part is Agent Coulson Lives!!

Legendary Robert Redford Cast as Head Guy of S.H.I.E.L.D. in Captain America: The Winter Solider

Legendary actor/director Robert Redford broke the news last week he was cast in Captain America: The Winter Solider, but we were left in dark on what role. Light has been bestowed upon us straight from the man himself!

In an interview he stated "“Well, the head of S.H.I.E.L.D. The head of S.H.I.E.L.D.” Now, you can't get any more direct than that can you? That leaves the door open to who exactly his character will be. Can he portray an older version of Nick Fury? A new character completely? or an older version of one of Captains allies from WWII? We must know Rob!! Hopefully soon but expect it to start filming shortly.

It will be released on April 4, 2014 starring Chris Evans returning as Captain America/Steve Rodgers, Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Samuel L. Jackson, and others.

Ant-Man Test Footage Leaked Online!

Last year at San Diego Comic-Con 2012, director Edgar Wright showed some apparently awesome test footage (it is, I can vouch for it now), and we who couldn't attend didn't get a chance to see it. That is changed now! Yesterday the footage was leaked online after they screened it again over in the UK at "The Best of BUG" event. I don't know what that is exactly,but that is besides the point of the story. The big thing is someone videotaped the footage and posted it online for us all to see. Disney has made it very clear they don't want it online by taking it down everywhere by today….well almost everywhere that is. I have found a link that works!! (for now).

Video is after jump. Make sure to check out it is awesome!

New Iron Man 3 Trailer is Crazy Awesome!

The newest trailer for Iron Man 3 hit the net and it's pretty epic! The first trailer gave us the feeling of dread and darkness, which is new for the series. Naturally we were wondering if the newest trailer would continue that mood and I have to say its there. I love it!

Shane Black taking over the reigns of the franchise was a fantastic breathe of air because of his great dialogue and sense of humor. You have to love Lethal Weapon or Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang. The man has put his action background into overdrive for this film as the trailer shows. I only hope that Stark and Rhodes have a Lethal Weapon partner relationship feel to them.

Check out the insane action driven trailer below

Chris Pratt Cast as Star-Lord in Guardians of the Galaxy

Guardians of the Galaxy has their lead star! The role of Peter Quill aka Star-Lord will go to Zero Dark Thirty's Chris Platt *wait who? Ohhh the guy from Parks and Recreational*. Deadline is reporting that Marvel has locked done Pratt to lead the very very left field intergalactic superhero team consisting of Drax the Destroyer, Rocket Raccoon, Gamora, and Groot. 


Star-Lord is the leader of the Guardians, who is of earth, but finds out that his father is an alien. (Soo is that intergalactic erotica? hmmm). He is later taken in by a intergalactic conflict that will lead to him being the leader. Sounds cool and very outlandish for Marvel, which I think is needed to keep this universe fresh. 

James Gunn's Guardians of the Galaxy will hit theaters August 1, 2014

First Trailer for 'Iron Man 3' has Arrived

The trailer for Iron Man 3 has arrived as promised from Apple Trailers. My first reactions to it are holy cow! this is going to awesome! They went dark for the third time around and it fits nicely.

The trailer gives us so many clues to the plot and where the Marvel Cinematic Universe is heading for phase II. We get confirmation that it does take place after the event in The Avengers with hearing how what happened in New York affected him. Also, we see how Tony is breaking down and probably regretting unveiling who he is now. Good thinking Batman for staying hidden.

The next biggest question from the trailer for me is "will the Mandarin have ties to Captain America?!" watch the trailer below and when we see Ben Kingsley from behind we see the Captain America shield  tattooed to his back. Did he get drunk one night and do it? was it a dare? who knows?

Here is the trailer

Iron Man 3 hits theaters on May 3, 2013

This is going to be a big week for Marvel, especially Iron Man because we have been given an official poster for the film and a first creepy image of the big bad villain The Mandarin. Also, the best part is the  trailer gets released tomorrow!!

The first poster gives us a great look at armor trophy case I mean Hall of Armor. It looks pretty sweet and full of lots of Iron. It shall hold me up until the trailer premieres.

Ant-Man Gets A Release Date!!

Ant-Man was something that has been in the shadows of Marvel for sometime and we got a pretty sweet sneak at what was in the making at SDCC earlier this year. Well, Disney has made it official! The release date announced today and it's a little far away but close enough to still get all of us nerds going.

The release date is November 6, 2015!


The Avengers 2 will be released will hit theaters May 1, 2015. So a few months before.

The news is likely but I was/am hoping for him to be included in The Avengers 2 as a character but I guess a solo film after it will be a big winner too. I wonder if he will be cameoed or big player in The Avengers 2 or not at all. Who knows (Joss Whedon does that sly boy)? Nonetheless, I am very excited for this character And to see what the film will have in for us Phase III of the Marvel Universe!

Rumor: Viggo Mortensen is Dr. Strange in Thor: The Dark World?!

The rumors for the next phase in Marvel films have finally hit and it's not the most far-out there idea. Most of the rumors I will talk about in years to come won't turn out real or pan out. Some get through the filter as real and happen. This rumor that Viggo Mortensen could take the mantle of Dr. Strange in Thor: The Dark World should be taken more seriously than others because of the source.


The source is (believe it or not but do) is a twitter feed by an person named Roger Wardell, who has confirmed some reliable information in past way before the official statement. So, I will take this rumor more seriously knowing that.

He tweeted:  "“Inside News: There’s something “Strange” about Thor: The Dark World" and in a separate text "“Inside News: Marvel is negotiations with Viggo Mortensen for an unspecified role in one of their Phase 2 films”"
So naturally, put the tweets together and boom a good casting call that does make sense. Take it as you will, but Dr. Strange is a bigger character in the universe and a script for a solo film has been in development for a few years now. A few domains have been bought in Strange's name a while back. He is coming sooner or later.
