Karl Urban Talks Skurge’s Size & Costume in Thor: Ragnarok

http://ift.tt/2ah3qJm

The ever-busy Marvel Studios has just begun principal photography on Thor: Ragnarok, the third in the Norse-god/Avenger’s solo films. Director Taika Waititi (Hunt for the Wilderpeople) has insisted that Thor would finally be the most interesting character in his own movie. It appears he has his work cut out for him, as the film co-stars The Hulk and features more villains than you can shake a star-forged hammer at.

One of these villains will be Skurge a.k.a. The Executioner, the half-Asgardian/half-Frost Giant villain, who in the comics has commonly acted as the muscle for the will-bending Enchantress. It was recently confirmed that Karl Urban (Star Trek Beyond) would be filling the role of the powerful foe.

Gotham Season 3 Gets a Court of Owls Comic-Con Poster

http://ift.tt/29NWwhF

Since premiering on Fox, the DC Comics series Gotham has taken viewers through the twisting political machinations and criminal underbelly that makes the comic book city tick, all while following Detective Jim Gordon (Ben McKenzie). In season 2, Jim investigated Arkham Asylum and the goings on of Dr. Hugo Strange (B.D. Wong), whose work seemed to be focused on one thing: reanimation. But, toward the end of the season it was revealed that a secret organization was backing the doctor’s experiments – experiments that led to the resurrections of Theo Galavan (James Frain) and Fish Mooney (Jada Pinkett Smith) as well as the transformation of Victor Fries (Nathan Darrow) into Mr. Freeze.

We know that secret council to ...

Suicide Squad Character Mini-Trailers Feature New Footage & Dialogue

http://ift.tt/29K17gW

There are some comic book movies, like this year’s Deadpool, that revolve around a single star attraction. Then there are movies like the upcoming DC Extended Universe romp Suicide Squad, which sees a ragtag group of criminals, monsters and supervillains drafted into a deadly special ops team. From the very start the appeal of the movie has been its ensemble cast, though it does help to have recognizable characters like Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie) and the Joker (Jared Leto) in starring roles.

Suicide Squad‘s theatrical release is just a few short weeks away, and we’re expecting a big final push for the movie at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con. With fresh marketing materials and interviews with the ...

Fast & Furious 8 Video Features High-Tech Vehicles

http://ift.tt/29Jhhwk

Sometimes a job is just a job. However for a group of truly fortunate people, their jobs are not only their passions, but their childhood dreams come to life.

We have seen director Gareth Edwards talk earlier today at Star Wars Celebration about how directing Rogue One reminded him of playing with Star Wars toys as a kid. Or the Russo Bros talk about fulfilling a childhood wish to put one of their favorite childhood characters, Spider-Man, on the big-screen in Captain America: Civil War. The next director in line for you to be really jealous of is F. Gary Gray, as he clearly was a Matchbox car fanatic as a kid and now gets to play with the real thing in Fast 8.

Gray has already made a name for himself by cutting his teeth with street-level films, like The Negotiator and Straight Outta Compton, so ...

Game of Thrones Actor Reveals What’s Under The Mountain’s Helmet

http://ift.tt/2a4DRiw

Game of Thrones fans already know what Ser Gregor Clegane looked like when he was alive the first time (though the character was recast a couple of times), before being revived to serve as the zombified mega-bodyguard to now-Queen Cersei Lannister (Lena Headey). The post-resurrection face of “The Mountain,” however, has become something of a mystery to the Game of Thrones faithful since he returned from the dead at the end of season 5.

In the season 6 finale, The Mountain did unmask himself before exacting a horrible punishment upon Septa Unella a.k.a. “the Shame Nun” (Hannah Waddingham) in a brutal revenge scene (which was originally

Wonder Woman: Gal Gadot On Playing Diana & Director Patty Jenkins

http://ift.tt/29KtDBJ

Even though the film is just under a year away, Warner Bros./DC’s first female superhero epic Wonder Woman is about to take San Diego Comic-Con 2016 by storm. Before the festivities begin, Entertainment Weekly released a number of exciting images from the production. The photos featured Wonder Woman’s star Gal Gadot in her “fighting” costume as well as shots of her being coached by director Patty Jenkins.

Aside from being DC’s first actress-led comic book film adaptation, Wonder Woman is also the first of the DC Extended Unvierse’s superhero flicks directed by a woman. And that’s something that Gadot says she wouldn’t have wanted any other way.

Star Trek Beyond Early Reviews: A Fun Adventure with the Enterprise

http://ift.tt/29CCT8R

2016 marks the 50th anniversary of when Gene Roddenberry’s original Star Trek TV show premiered on the small screen. It’s for related reasons that Trekkies have been both excited and concerned about Star Trek Beyond, this year’s film installment in the space exploration franchise. It doesn’t help that Beyond is yet another addition to the Star Trek Kelvin timeline: an alternate/rebooted version of the Original Series (OS) Star Trek continuity that has achieved mainstream commercial success with Star Trek (2009) and Star Trek Into Darkness, but proven far more divisive within the devoted Star Trek fan community.

Whereas the previous Star Trek Kelvin timeline entries were directed by J.J. Abrams, Star Trek Beyond was helmed by Justin ...

The six years since BBC’s wildly popular modern take on Arthur Conan Doyle’s classic detective stories, Sherlock, debuted on the small screen have been an extremely transformative time for the show’s stars. Benedict Cumberbatch has received an Oscar nomination for his role in The Imitation Game, played a new version of classic Star Trek villain Khan in Star Trek Into Darkness, and this year will make his debut in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as the titular protagonist of Doctor Strange. Martin Freeman, meanwhile, also joined the MCU in this year’s Captain America: Civil War after leading Peter Jackson’s Hobbit trilogy as Bilbo Baggins, and had a core role in the first season of ...

J.J. Abrams Confirms Star Trek 4 Will Happen

http://ift.tt/29Zebka

J.J. Abrams has earned the reputation of a franchise savior during his career directing films. Dating back to his work on Mission: Impossible III in 2006, many of Abrams’ movies have reinvigorated well-established properties, giving them another lease on life. This is why he was such a good pick to helm Star Wars: The Force Awakens, which earned $2 billion worldwide, earned widespread critical acclaim, and launched a new era of the galaxy far, far away on the big screen.

But before Abrams took the Millennium Falcon for a spin, he sat in the captain’s chair of the U.S.S. Enterprise, delivering the first two installments of the rebooted Star Trek movie franchise, now dubbed the Kelvin Timeline. Though his obligations to Force Awakens prevented him from ...

Shane Black’s The Predator Casting Shortlist Includes James Franco

http://ift.tt/29E27Tr

Though the arrival of Shane Black’s The Predator sequel/soft reboot is still quite some time away from actually happening, there remains a great deal of interest and questions about the project. The film itself has some reasonably big boots to fill, with 1987’s Arnold Schwarzenegger-led Predator casting its shadow as arguably one of the biggest and most beloved action films of all time.

Shrugging off speculation early on that The Predator would be a remake of the original, Black has been vocal on several occasions about his intent to make what he calls an “inventive” sequel and to turn the homicidal space alien into something that scales back its “overdone” characterization in ...

Doctor Who: How Matt Smith’s Doctor Could Return

http://ift.tt/29B50J0

There has been a lot of talk recently about Matt Smith possibly making a return to Doctor Who after current Doctor Peter Capaldi leaves the show. The driving force behind this discussion is comments made by current showrunner Steven Moffat, concerning how much Smith would like to come back to the show. Of course, this is all just talk for the moment; there has been no real indication that the Eleventh Doctor will be back for a revival tour. That doesn’t mean that Smith won’t return, but it also doesn’t mean that he’s about to sign on the dotted line.

If Smith were to come back to the show, there are three prevailing theories as to how it might happen. The most ...

Oscar Isaac Cast in Spielberg’s Kidnapping of Edgardo Mortara

http://ift.tt/29NDGad

Director Steven Spielberg’s adaptation of the Roald Dahl children’s novel, The BFG, only just opened in theaters at the time of writing this. Nevertheless, the legendary filmmaker has already started production on another book-turned movie in the form of Ready Player One. And that’s not the only literary adaptation that Spielberg is actively involved with developing, either.

Spielberg currently has plans to begin filming The Kidnapping of Edgardo Mortara after he wraps principal photography on Ready Player One. Edgardo Mortara is a project that Spielberg has been loosely attached to since at least 2014, back when he was still planning to adapt Daniel H. Wilson’s Robopocalypse novel for the big screen. However, the Edgargo Mortara adaptation has only ...

Suicide Squad Cast Praises ‘Total Control’ Given To David Ayer

http://ift.tt/2agtLHt

There was a time when the impression of Hollywood movie studios – at least to fans – was clear: it was the writers and directors who spawned the true creativity and ‘art’ that wound up lasting decades or reshaping the medium… and the producers who beat the drum of profitability and star power. That was, until the rise of the Marvel Cinematic Universe – when producer Kevin Feige became the fans’ favorite player and ‘the man with the plan,’ meaning the writers and directors actually making the film were simply bringing the studio’s broad story to life.

Obviously that’s not an entirely accurate description, as numerous writers and directors have claimed the productions themselves felt as fun ...

Nostalgia for the 1990s is strong with the arrival of Pokémon GO, a new augmented reality mobile app game that allows users to catch various Pokémon by exploring the great outdoors. Though it’s barely a week old, Pokémon GO has already become the biggest mobile game in U.S. history, earning more downloads than dating app Tinder and poised to become more popular than Twitter as well.

Once again, Pokéfever is sweeping across the nation, and Nintendo couldn’t be happier. In the wake of GO‘s release, Legendary Pictures has emerged as the favorite to secure the rights to a live-action film based on the property with Max Landis eyed to pen the screenplay.

When it first dawned on DC Comics fans that a Suicide Squad movie was really happening, a good amount of the speculation surrounded the role of Floyd Lawton a.k.a. Deadshot. As one of the deadliest assassins in the history of the DC Universe (and the de facto leader of the Squad in the field), the fans knew that the potential was there for a truly unforgettable action movie role – if the right actor was cast to play him.

Few dared to hope that it would be a star as big as Will Smith, no stranger to bullet-filled action films and one of the most profitable movie stars in Hollywood history. Smith finally joining the world of the ...

Ghostbusters Post-Credits Scene Explained

When Ghostbusters opens in theaters this Friday it’ll come packaged with a post-credits scene, so don’t rush out of the theater once it’s finished – the movie isn’t quite over yet. And these days it seems as if almost every movie has a post-credits scene – especially those vying for a sequel or looking to jump start their own franchise – and when there isn’t one, you can’t help but feel disappointed you sat through all those credits for nothing. (Unless you always stick around for the credits in appreciation for all who worked on the movie, in which case, good on you.)

Anyway, the post-credits scene attached to Ghostbusters should prove a fun one for fans of the the original, referencing both the 1984 Ghostbusters film and ...

Blade Runner 2 Concept Art Revealed

Leading up to the October 2017 theatrical release of Blade Runner 2 from critically acclaimed director Denis Villeneuve (Sicario), there has been a healthy amount of information regarding the film’s shooting script and well rounded cast of actors. Featuring the return of the original movie’s star Harrison Ford (Star Wars: The Force Awakens), the long awaited sequel to the seminal science-fiction dystopia of 1982 directed by Ridley Scott finally appears to be coming together in a big way.

Working with a cast that includes welcome franchise newcomers as Ryan Gosling (The Nice Guys), Robin Wright (House of Cards), and Dave Bautista (Spectre), Villeneuve may yet deliver a follow-up to Scott’s film (itself, an adaptation of Philip K. Dick’s Do Androids Dream of Electric ...

Believe it or not, there was a time when Harley Quinn had not yet been created, leaving Batman and Joker to duke it out without a shrill, nasal, heavily-accented voice (or oversized mallet) interfering. But from her first introduction in Batman: The Animated Series, Harley Quinn’s rise from supporting character as ‘Joker’s Girlfriend’ to a full-blown DC Comics mascot has had much to do with her sex appeal – more than ever before with Margot Robbie playing the part in the upcoming Suicide Squad.
