UPDATE: This scoop has now been confirmed by The Hollywood Reporter, along with additional names that had were either just added in the last week, or were kept off of the internal cast list for the sake of secrecy. Those names include Michelle Oh, Mark Hamill, Walter Goggins and J.K. Simmons! ORIGINAL REPORT: A funny thing happened this afternoon. A source of mine dropped me a line, asking if I was interested in any intel…
The DC Universe has only been around a brief while, but they’ve already given us some amazing content to sink our teeth into. From the buzzworthy Titans series, to the beloved Young Justice: Outsiders, the streaming service is definitely bringing the goods. And while fans can’t wait for Doom Patrol to arrive next month, we’ve got some cool news about the series that comes out after that: Swamp Thing. Production on Swamp Thing began back in November, and just as with Titans and Doom Patrol, the folks running the production have been pretty good…
When the first trailer dropped for POKÉMON Detective Pikachu it took many by surprise. Very few fans had any idea what to expect from the film, but what they saw in the trailer was something that was refreshingly layered, engaging, and that evoked other classic live-action/animation hybrids like Robert Zemeckis’ Who Framed Roger Rabbit? Also of note was the fact that Pikachu sounded like Deadpool! It’s a silly thing to say, of course, but with Ryan Reynolds voicing Pikachu, no one was…
Mortal Kombat is one of those franchises that simply won’t die. And that’s not a bad thing. The folks behind it have managed to stay ahead of the curve, and to find ways of reinventing and reinvigorating the property every few years since it debuted at arcades in 1992. From countless games, to television series, to live-action films, as well as comics, co-creator Ed Boon always seems ready to expand the Mortal Kombat universe. And thanks to the new(ish) owners…
UPDATE This casting was confirmed by John Glover himself. For details on who he’s playing, CLICK HERE! ORIGINAL REPORT Over the weekend, some form of debate got sparked when it was revealed that a little boy hums a few bars of the John Williams “Superman Theme” in the next Shazam! trailer. Some see it as an affront to the current continuity (while I’d like to remind them that in the world of these movies, no one actually hears any…
[UPDATE: 10 Minutes After We Published This, Actor Diedrich Bader Confirmed It On Twitter. Retweeting With The Caption “Excited be a part of this!” He Subsequently Took It Down, Likely At The Request of The Studio] When it comes to Elseworld tales, few are as iconic as Mark Millar’s Red Son. Since it’s arrival in 2003, it’s become a shining example of what stories set outside of the official continuity can be by taking a beloved character and putting a…
When it comes to Batman, there’s no shortage of great, iconic stories in his catalogue. With a history that spans nearly eight decades (which you can read more about HERE), everyone surely has their favorite book about Gotham’s Dark Knight. Mine happens to be Batman: The Long Halloween. That’s why a discovery I made yesterday while doing some digging for you led me to tweet, simply, this: pic.twitter.com/4uZcX3XJjM — Mario-F. Robles (@I_Am_MFR) January 3, 2019 Well, a bunch of…
UPDATE: In yesterday’s report, I only revealed a handful of key names from the Batman: Hush voice cast. I noticed in the aftermath that some of you still had some big questions, especially with regard to who may be voicing Selina Kyle, aka Catwoman. So I did some additional digging and now I’ve got some more names from the cast for you (still no character names, unfortunately). Here are some of the other notable names in the…
[Please Note: At 5:17PM EST we revised this story because of one key error. The portion of the report that refers to “Huntress and Black Canary’s body count” was intended to read “Huntress and Black Mask‘s body count.” The correction has been made. Sorry for any confusion!] It’s certainly been an action-packed couple of weeks for DC’s upcoming Birds of Prey movie, and the hits just keep on coming! Hot on the heels of casting news that finds…
Top Gun: Maverick is coming, and while Tom Cruise’s Maverick is supposed to be a trainer for the next generation, he is still going to get some air time. I’ve been sent pictures of what Maverick’s plane will look like in the sequel: The movie was originally scheduled for next year, but got pushed back to 2020 in order to give the cast more time to get more real life flying experience. So it would make…
Sometimes, when a studio is considering an actor for a role in a property known for its iconic imagery, they ask for some visual assistance during the process. It’s not at all uncommon for the studio to request a digital mock-up of an actor in a particular costume- especially if that actor is busy on another project at the moment and unable to come in and model it themselves, or if they currently have hair…
