The Marvel Comics adaptation X-Force has been in development at 20th Century Fox since at least as far back as 2013, years before Deadpool finally proved that X-Men spin-offs could be a success. But what exactly is X-Force? Well, as you've already guessed, it's an X-Men spin-off – a team of young mutants who tend to resort to more violent and underhand methods to get things done. The groundwork for this movie will be put in place in Deadpool 2, which will arrive this summer. Here's what you need to know about what will follow. X-Force movie release date © Marvel Comics Fox is yet to announce X-Force's release date. The latest reports claim that the movie will begin shooting in October 2018. The same report claims that three X-Men films will be released in 2019, and the speculation is that X-Force will be one of those. X-Force movie cast © 20th Century Fox Ryan Reynolds is confirmed to star as Wade Wilson – that's Deadpool to you – in the movie. Cable (Josh Brolin) is returning after his Deadpool 2 debut – he's a militaristic, time-travelling mutant cyborg, in case you aren't familiar. © 20th Century Fox The first trailer for Deadpool 2 also revealed that a group that looks a lot like an X-Force iteration (with a bit of the terribly named mercenary group Six Pack thrown in for good measure) will be making an appearance in that movie. It's only an educated guess at this point, but the team appears to consist of GW Bridge (played by Terry Crews), Shatterstar (theorised to be Lewis Tan), and perhaps Garrison Kane. © 20th Century Fox Domino is also there, who is played by Zazie Beetz. Domino is another character with a long history with X-Force, so it would make sense for her to be returning in the movie. She has 'luck powers' that alter probability, which come in pretty handy when it says 'soldier of fortune' at the top of your CV. The film was originally announced in 2013 with Kick-Ass 2 director Jeff Wadlow on board. At some point he dropped off the film and it is now being directed by Cabin in the Woods and Daredevil's Drew Goddard.

Disney's release slate recently was filled with movies all the way up to 2023 with promises of theaters full of Pixar, Disney Animation, live action remakes, and, most important to this list, Marvel movies. Disney has slated seven untitled Marvel movies for the next few years, leaving fans to speculate just what these titles can be. Phase 4 is anyone's game at this point, but there are some key sequels and titles that are certainly making the game. It's important to note that Avengers 4, for whatever reason, is not included on this slate -- even though Avengers: Infinity War is. The untitled Avengers movie hits theaters May 3, 2019. And we have one official Phase 4 movie on the books. Tom Holland's Spider-Man: Homecoming 2 has a release date of July 5, 2019, making this the first movie of Phase 4. While release dates are always subject to change (as we recently were reminded), we do know a few other Phase 4 movies that are definitely coming. The rest is pretty much speculation, and while Marvel likely won't announce these titles until after Avengers 4, that can't stop us from guessing what's in store for the next few years. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 Release Date: 7/31/20 Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is the only Phase 4 movie that's but talked about in any definitive terms, with James Gunn returning to write and direct the third movie in one of Marvel's top franchises. We know that the movie is aiming for a 2020 release date, but not the specific date. While Guardians is big enough to open in May (which usually has a high-tier Marvel movie), opening in July isn't a bad spot. Seeing as how Vol. 3 is likely further along in the development process than other projects, it'll hit theaters sooner rather than later. Honestly, I feel like Marvel is hiding a release date for May 2020, which would be an ideal spot for Vol. 3. Black Panther 2 Release Date: 5/7/21 Oh, you better believe a Black Panther sequel is coming. This movie has dominated in just about every single way and Marvel is probably already doing everything they can to schmooze Ryan Coogler back into the director's chair. It's one of the biggest success stories in Marvel's filmography so they aren't going to be sitting on it for long. The typical waiting period between Marvel sequels is usually three years, so 2021 feels right. Putting the movie in May makes sense given how much it made in February, which used to be viewed as a kind of "off-season" for movies. If it did that well in an off-season, imagine what it could do opening the summer.

New week, new Netflix! The streaming service is adding a bunch of film and TV show titles for members to binge, including one of its most anticipated titles of 2018--the next entry in the streamer's Marvel Cinematic Universe collection. March 8, otherwise known as International Women's Day, saw the Season 2 debut of Marvel's Jessica Jones. The series features the return of Krysten Ritter as the titular hero after she last appeared in Marvel's Defenders. According to GameSpot's review of the new season, the story being told is definitely a slow burn. While the premiere episode may not be as exciting as some were hoping for, there will be plenty of momentum in the installments that follow. Another new arrival on Netflix is F the Prom starring Riverdale's Madelaine Petsch. That film is joined by new episodes of David Letterman's My Next Guest Needs No Introduction and The Joel McHale Show with Joel McHale, as well as Netflix originals The Outsider, Nailed It, Ladies First, and Bad Guys: Vile City. You can take a look at everything arriving on the service this week below. You can also see everything coming to and leaving Netflix in March, as well as Hulu and Amazon Prime Video. Still, while streaming has a lot of great shows, it doesn't have them all. Make sure to check out the shows we are most excited to watch this spring.

TV reboots of classic films should be approached with great caution. In recent years the US has produced some serious clangers by dredging up well-respected horror films – Scream: The TV series, for example – but well-received remakes of Hannibal and Bates’ Motel have provided enough cause for optimism for studios to continue to roll the dice. The early signs for US Network Fox’s continuation of The Exorcist – which debuted its first season in the US last year, and is coming to Amazon Prime Video in the UK this October – were promising. First and foremost, showrunner Jeremy Slater – one of the writers behind Netflix’s recent Death Note adaptation – made the canny decision not to re-tell the story from William Friedkin’s 1973 original, but to expand upon it with a new tale set in the present day. He then landed a bonafide star in Oscar-winner Geena Davis (Beetlejuice, Thelma & Louise) as his leading lady. However, the Exorcist is held in such high regard by devoted horror fans – BBC film critic Mark Kermode has seen it over 200 times – that the team behind the show faced an uphill battle in convincing punters of its right to exist. Even one of its stars, Ben Daniels, admitted that he initially turned down the role before reading the script, in the belief that any attempt at recreating the original would be a failure. With this in mind, here’s everything we know so far about the Exorcist TV series. Why has someone made a TV series out of The Exorcist? It’s a film whose resonance has not diminished in the years since its release, despite its visual effects looking rather ludicrous in retrospect (sorry). And, of course, there’s the logic that seems to be behind every remake – that the story worked once and already has a large fanbase, just begging to be tapped into. In fairness to the producers of The Exorcist, they’ve clearly tried to do something a bit different here. What is The Exorcist TV series about? The show revolves around a case of demonic possession over 40 years after the events of the original. Geena Davis stars as the mother of a young girl exhibiting odd behaviour, who calls upon the assistance of two priests, Father Thomas Ortega and Father Marcus Keane. These two troubled men of God – one plagued by doubts about his calling, the other haunted by a previous exorcism – are at the heart of the story, and their journey, along with the possession story, is a good enough reason to stay glued to your screens for the duration of the 10 episode series. Is it any good? By building upon the story told in Friedkin’s masterpiece, the show manages to avoid the pitfalls of most contemporary reboots, such as misrepresenting beloved characters or mishandling a well-told narrative. Critical response in the US – where it is about to begin a new series which will see John Cho join the cast – has been predominantly positive. Check out some of the early responses to season one below. “It doesn’t try to be the movie or outdo it in terms of fright factor, nor does it provide any reasons for mockery. It’s well-made, well-acted television, which is more than can be said for some of the reboots rolling out this fall” – The New York Times. “The Exorcist is actually worth a look if you like scary things and have a penchant for scary familiar things you might want told a little differently and a little more deeply. The hour is scary enough but makes its biggest splash by demonstrating that it has plans to expand the worldview of the movie” – The Hollywood Reporter. “Director Rupert Wyatt (“Rise of the Planet of the Apes”) keeps the pilot chilly and drear, not overdoing the shocks and special effects. (Anyone who finds the going slow I would direct to the Friedkin film, which much of the time is positively mopey.) There are tense and spooky moments, to be sure” – The LA Times.

With the release of Gorillaz’s new album Humanz just hours away, the band is dominating the news cycle, and it doesn’t appear that’s about to change anytime soon. Aside from the fact they’ve got a busy summer of touring ahead of them, they’re also planning an animated television series. In a new interview with Exclaim, Gorillaz’s creative director Jamie Hewlett discussed the forthcoming project. The plan is for a 10-episode run airing sometime in 2018. “I’ll direct the first and the last one, but we’ll have to get someone in to direct the other episodes,” Hewlett explained. “I think even attempting to do it all by myself will kill me.” While Gorillaz’s recent video for “Saturnz Barz” was presented in a 360-virtual reality format with CGI animation, Hewlett said the TV series will be two-dimensional. “They’ll be that way from now on. I think it’s a beautiful style of animation,” he noted. “Everybody does CGI now, and it is great when you’re making backgrounds, like environments and landscapes, but not the actual characters. I’m still very much inspired by the work of Chuck Jones, and I love that animation. It’s art. I’d like to keep the characters in that style for the rest of this campaign. So the characters on the show will be 2D, but everything else is up for grabs.” “It could be real footage with real people talking to the characters,” he added. “We’ll have guest appearances in the series by various artists that appear on the album or whoever we happen to write into the series. Or it could be a mix of collage and photography and a bit of CGI as well.” Beyond the TV series, Hewlett is also working on a Gorillaz-themed clothing line. He told Exclaim, “We also have a clothing company that I’ve designed all of the clothes for, which are being manufactured at the moment.” As for Gorillaz’s music, they’re set to appear on Colbert this evening. In anticipation, the band’s Instagram page has shared video of Damon Albarn and Noel Gallagher jamming out in the studio. (Gallagher appears on the Humanz closing track, “We’ve Got the Power”.)

The most explosive book of 2018 is headed to the small screen. “Fire and Fury,” which author Michael Wolff bills as an exclusive glimpse inside President Trump's White House, is being adapted into a TV series, according to The Hollywood Reporter. Networks will soon have the opportunity to bid on the project, which will be executive produced by Wolff. Wolff's book has sparked huge controversy since excerpts began to emerge earlier this month. The book — which Wolff says he wrote after conducting over 200 interviews with those connected to Trump while spending considerable time at the White House — says those working with the President largely believe he's not fit to lead the nation. Bannon to talk with prosecutors working on Mueller's Russia probe “Fire and Fury” is being adapted into a TV series. (Olivier Douliery/TNS) Steve Bannon, a former special adviser to Trump, provided some of the most controversial commentary in the book, including referring to a meeting involving Donald Trump Jr. and a group of Russians as "treasonous." Bannon later claimed he was referring to former Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort. Trump has slammed "Fire and Fury" as untrue and the book led to a rift between him and Bannon, who Trump says "lost his mind" after he was fired last year. Trump said last week he plans to give "a strong look" to the libel laws in America." "Our current libel laws are a sham and a disgrace, and do not represent American values or American fairness," Trump said. "We're going to take a very, very strong look at that. And I think what the American people want to see is fairness."

Starz announced today the greenlight of the network’s next original series, the long-awaited follow-up to the classic horror film franchise The Evil Dead. The project reteams the original filmmakers, director Sam Raimi, with longtime producing partner Rob Tapert and star Bruce Campbell. Titled Ash Vs. Evil Dead, the 10-episode series will see Campbell reprise his role as Ash, the stock boy, aging lothario and chainsaw-handed monster hunter who has spent the last 30 years avoiding responsibility, maturity and the terrors of the Evil Dead. When a Deadite plague threatens to destroy all of mankind, Ash is finally forced to face his demons –personal and literal. Destiny, it turns out, has no plans to release the unlikely hero from its “Evil” grip. “Starz first worked with Sam and Rob on Spartacus, and we are thrilled to be back in business with them,” said Carmi Zlotnik, Managing Director of Starz. “With Sam writing and directing and Bruce Campbell returning to the screen, we are certain the show will give Evil Dead fans around the world the fix they’ve been craving.” “Evil Dead has always been a blast. Bruce, Rob, and I are thrilled to have the opportunity to tell the next chapter in Ash’s lame, but heroic saga. With his chainsaw arm and his ‘boomstick,’ Ash is back to kick some monster butt. And brother, this time there’s a truckload of it,” said Sam Raimi. "I'm really excited to bring this series to the Evil Dead fans worldwide - it's going to be everything they have been clamoring for: serious deadite ass-kicking and plenty of outrageous humor,” said Bruce Campbell. “STARZ has always been a great creative partner and we are excited to be working with them on this project,” said Robert Tapert. Raimi himself is set to direct the first episode.

In its quest to launch a hit fantasy series of the Game of Thrones caliber, Amazon has closed a massive deal — said to be close to $250 million — to acquire global TV rights to The Lord of the Rings, based on the fantasy novels by J.R.R. Tolkien. The streaming service has given a multi-season commitment to a LOTR series in the pact, which also includes a potential spinoff series. The LOTR original series, a prequel to Tolkien’s The Fellowship of the Ring, will be produced by Amazon Studios in cooperation with the Tolkien Estate and Trust; HarperCollins; and New Line Cinema, a division of Warner Bros. Entertainment, which produced the hugely successful LOTR movie franchise. No details about the deal were disclosed, but it believed to be dwarfing any TV series pact to date with a whopping price tag attached. Amazon, Netflix and HBO had been approached by the Tolkien estate, who had been shopping the project. It came with an upfront rights payment said to be in the $200 million-$250 million range, and I hear Amazon landed the rights by paying close to $250 million. That is just for the rights, before any costs for development, talent and production, in proposition whose finances industry observers called “insane.” It is a payment that is made sight unseen as there is no concept, and there are no creative auspices attached to the possible series. On top of that, the budget for a fantasy series of that magnitude is likely to be $100 million-$150 million a season. “The Lord of the Rings is a cultural phenomenon that has captured the imagination of generations of fans through literature and the big screen,” said Sharon Tal Yguado, Head of Scripted Series at Amazon Studios. “We are honored to be working with the Tolkien Estate and Trust, HarperCollins and New Line on this exciting collaboration for television and are thrilled to be taking The Lord of the Rings fans on a new epic journey in Middle Earth.” Set in Middle Earth, the television adaptation will explore new storylines preceding Tolkien’s The Fellowship of the Ring. I hear that there are some creative restrictions imposed by the rights holders on what can be done and what can’t be done in a LOTR TV series. “We are delighted that Amazon, with its longstanding commitment to literature, is the home of the first-ever multi-season television series for The Lord of the Rings,” said Matt Galsor, a representative for the Tolkien Estate and Trust and HarperCollins. “Sharon and the team at Amazon Studios have exceptional ideas to bring to the screen previously unexplored stories based on J.R.R. Tolkien’s original writings.” Given Amazon’s mandate to launch a big fantasy series of the scope of Game of Thrones, which comes directly from honcho Jeff Bezos and Amazon’s deep coffers, the company was considered the leading contender for a Lord of the Rings series. Bezos has been hands-on involved in the matters of entertainment division Amazon Studios following the purge of its top executives, led by Roy Price, and has been taking meetings and making calls to agents. The Lord of the Rings deal eclipses some big-ticket series commitments Amazon has made during the past couple of years: $80 million for the six-episode Woody Allen show Crisis in Six Scenes, $70 million-plus for Matt Weiner’s eight-episode The Romanoffs and $160 million for two seasons of David O. Russell’s series, which now has been axed after about $40 million spent. (The last two series originally came from The Weinstein Co., which no longer has involvement in The Romanoffs) The Tolkien estate and publisher HarperCollins filed the massive lawsuit in November 2012 against Warner Bros., its subsidiary New Line and Middle-earth Enterprises — a division of Rings’ Hobbit rightsholder the Saul Zaentz Co. — claiming copyright infringement and breach of contract over video games, online slot machines and other digital merchandising. With the $80 million lawsuit settled in July, the two sides have gotten on better terms following the bitter feud. The Tolkien estate shopped the TV series with reps for feps for New Line Cinema. Warner Bros. TV, which would’ve been a logical partner, is not a studio on the LOTR series, which will be produced by Amazon Studios. I hear Amazon wanted to produce the series itself. A LOTR TV series will provide corporate synergy for Amazon, the world’s leading book seller. The Lord of the Rings novels was named Amazon customers’ favorite book of the millennium in 1999. Still, that world already has been extensively explored on-screen with three great Lord of the Rings movies and three Hobbit films. Launched at the 2001 Cannes Film Festival with The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, Peter Jackson’s LOTR trilogy was a global phenomenon. Starring Elijah Wood, In McKellen, Liv Tyler, Sean Bean, Viggo Mortensen, Sean Astin, Cate Blanchett, Orlando Bloom and others, the three films combined to gross more than $2.9 billion worldwide. LOTR: The Two Towers was released in 2002, and The Return of the King arrived the following year, becoming only the second film to top $1 billion worldwide. That third installment won 11 Oscars, including Best Picture, Director and Adapted Screenplay. The previous two combined to win six Academy Awards in crafts categories

The ‘90s were a simpler time. And with the current state of world affairs, wouldn’t it be nice to transport back to the quirky decade for a little escape? Well, thanks to Netflix, you can! The streaming service, filled with some of the best TV shows from the 1990s, is ready to fill you with nostalgia. We made a list of the best series currently available to binge to help you prepare for the perfect flashback weekend. Frasier Kelsey Grammar starred as Frasier Crane for a whopping 11 seasons on NBC’s classic sitcom Frasier. Unlike many comedies that focused on blue-collar families, Frasier took a look at the neurotic lives of the cultural elite. But money can’t buy you peace of mind, and so hilarity ensues as the characters try to find love and a little happiness. Charmed This WB hit told the story of three sisters as they navigate work and relationships in San Francisco. Oh yeah, and they’re witches. Binge all eight seasons now in preparation for the upcoming Charmed reboot currently being cast for the CW. Friends Could there be a show that better encapsulates the ’90s than Friends? Considered one of the greatest sitcoms of all time, all ten seasons of the beloved series are available to stream on Netflix. You may think you already know how things end for Ross and Rachel, but it couldn’t hurt to watch a few (hundred) more times to be sure. Party of Five This Fox drama follows the lives of the Salinger family, a group of five kids who have to lean on each other and fend for themselves after their parents tragically die in a car accident. The series introduced the world to ’90s leading ladies like Neve Campbell and Jennifer Love Hewitt, who would go on to spook us in Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer, respectively. That ’70s Show For a show about the 1970s, That ’70s Show sure does bring back a lot of ’90s nostalgia. That’s because the show about a group of high school friends launched the cast, whose careers were just getting started at the end of the millennium, to superstardom. Cut to the present day, and Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis are married with children. But back then they were just high school kids in love. Freaks and Geeks For a show that only lasted one season, Freaks and Geeks sure has managed to stand the test of time. That’s because creators Judd Apatow and Paul Feig were able to make a coming-of-age show about high school kids who were as relatable as they were awkward. Not to mention it introduced us to some of today’s biggest stars, including James Franco, Jason Segel, and Seth Rogen.

The Dark Tower TV series is in development at Amazon, according to Deadline. While the series was originally planned to tie into the 2017 film, that is no longer the plan, according to Stephen King in an interview with Vulture. "The TV series they’re developing now … we’ll see what happens with that. It would be like a complete reboot, so we’ll just have to see," said King. Glen Mazzara, who previously helmed The Walking Dead season 3, has been brought on as showrunner. Akiva Goldsman, who produced and co-wrote the film adaptation, will executive produce, along with Jeff Pinkner, Ron Howard, and Brian Grazer. Nikolaj Arcel, who directed The Dark Tower movie, and screenwriter Anders Thomas Jensen wrote a script for the pilot and will also executive produce. Of course, it's unclear if Amazon plans to move forward with Arcel and Jensen's script now that the film has turned out to be a failure. That pilot was said to feature Idris Elba, who played Roland in the movie, and Tom Taylor, who played Jake. It's unclear what their involvement will be at this point. Mazzara might prefer to start from scratch completely. MRC and Sony Pictures, who also released the film in 2017, will finance a 10-13 episode first season. Here's everything else we know: The Dark Tower TV Series Release Date EW had confirmed that the TV series would begin filming in 2017, with a potential premiere in 2018. As we've heard little about the show since the release of poorly received film, it's probably safe to say that the release date might be pushed back just a bit. The Dark Tower TV Series Showrunner THR reports that former Walking Dead exec producer Glen Mazzara will serve as showrunner for The Dark Tower TV series. "I’ve been a Stephen King fan for decades and the opportunity to adapt The Dark Tower as a TV series is a great honor," Mazzara told THR. "The events of The Gunslinger, Wizard & Glass, The Wind Through the Keyhole, and other tales need a long format to capture the complexity of Roland's coming of age — how he became the Gunslinger, how Walter became the Man in Black, and how their rivalry cost Roland everything and everyone he ever loved. I could not be more excited to tell this story. It feels like being given the key to a treasure chest. And oh yeah, we’ll have billy-bumblers!" Mazzara's involvement is definitely great news. He's responsible for what is arguably the greatest season of The Walking Dead after taking over for Frank Darabont in season 3. Hopefully, he'll bring a bit of his magic to The Dark Tower. The showrunner has also been attached to a prequel to The Shining called The Overlook Hotel for some time. No news on that front, though. The Dark Tower TV Series Details The show will reportedly flesh Roland's origin story and his first adventure as a young gunslinger from the fourth book in the series, Wizard and Glass. In 2017, MRC released a cool promo that teases the setting of the show. It's a map of the different places in the Barony of Mejis, where most of Wizard and Glass takes place: Roland's instructor, Cort, and his original ka-tet, Cuthbert and Alain, will appear on the show, although none of those roles have been cast yet.

Well over a decade’s worth of whispers and rumblings surrounding the possibility of a live-action Star Wars TV series have finally been turned into reality. Lucasfilm has formally announced the hiring of Jon Favreau to executive produce and write the new series. It will be Favreau’s responsibility to assemble what Lucasfilm president Kathleen Kennedy calls “a diverse group of writers and directors” to shape new stories in the Star Wars expanded universe. As expected and anticipated, the new series will air exclusively on Disney’s upcoming and as-of-yet named direct-to-consumer streaming platform. It could be used as a launch title or come much later down the road. Favreau is no stranger to Star Wars having professed his love for the Original Trilogy as a child. He’s also lent his voice to Star Wars: The Clone Wars, and has a small role in the upcoming Solo: A Star Wars Story film. First, Favreau has to wrap up post-production on Disney’s ambitious live-action The Lion King film that he’s directing. That film won’t be released until 2019.

In this age of Netflix, it feels like there are new films and series emerging every day, so it comes as no suprise that some of those announcements turn out to be "fake news." But while sometimes those are easy to spot, other times you have to look twice. Too Real to Be Fake The series in question is called Stairs and is the new project from Ross Reedlon, the award-winning director of Sally the Demon Smasher. Sound fake? Not necessarily. Sound familiar? Definitely. This sounds awfully similar to Joss Whedon and Buffy the Vampire Slayer. And instead of Sarah Michelle Gellar, Sally starred Jenna Estelle Greene. But that's not all. One of the lead actors, Amy "A-Hole" Hollister, seems to be a parody of Jennifer "J-Law" Lawrence. First, there's the name, and then there are the YA movies both starred in, and the quirky down-to-earth personalities both have. There are twitter profiles for all of the six lead actors as well as the director, the aforementioned Jenna Estelle Greene, and one for the series. And they are not only empty profiles. Most of them are actually active; tweeting, liking, and retweeting posts and pictures. Apparently Amy (@amy_ahole) is very in your face and over the top, Diego Schmidt (@DiegoJFSchmidt) is an Argentinian who loves his grandmother, and Caroline Bush (@CarolineMBush) is exactly what her name sounds like. Fake Series, Real Fans In spite of the weirdness and the fakeness, these guys have amassed tons of fans. The Holes - which is the ship name of Amy and Peter Hollister - even have a fan account on Twitter. And to be honest, I don't blame them. After all I've read about the project and the cast, I'm almost disappointed it's not real. would actually love to watch it now. Don't get me wrong, though. All that work wasn't for nothing: It was promo material for a play. The play is called "Stairs" just like the series, and seems to be following the production of the sitcom. It is an original project of a German student theater group and is going to premiere soon. Whether or not all the tweets helped promoting the performance remains to be seen.

On March 8, 2019, audiences will finally get to see a female superhero headline a solo Marvel movie. “Captain Marvel” is still one year away, but we already know plenty about the flick. Returning Cast: While this isn’t an Avengers flick, there will be some familiar faces. A pre-eye patch Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) and young Maria Hill (Cobie Smulders) will be in the movie. Of course, Brie Larson will play Captain Marvel/Carol Danvers, but she is widely rumored to first appear in “Avengers: Infinity War.” New Cast: Larson will be joined by plenty of actors who are new to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Jude Law will play Doctor Walter Lawson, a.k.a. Mar-Vell, Carol’s mentor. Ben Mendelsohn will play a villain. DeWanda Wise will make her film debut as a supporting character (Monica Rambeau is a popular guess). Gemma Chan will play Minn-Erva, a Kree geneticist and spy. Brie Larson will star as Captain Marvel next year. She is pictured above on Jan. 21, 2018 in Los Angeles. Photo: Christopher Polk/Getty Images for Turner Period Piece: This will be Marvel’s first period movie since “Captain America: The First Avenger,” but the Brie Larson-starrer isn’t going that far back. “Captain Marvel” will take place in the 1990s. Villains: A superhero needs a good villain to fight. At San Diego Comic-Con, it was confirmed that Carol would be going up against the Skrulls, and Mendelsohn is rumored to be playing the Skrull leader. Plot: First and foremost, “Captain Marvel” is an origin story. The Marvel movie will show how Air Force pilot Carol Danvers ends up with powers. It will also dive into the Skrull-Kree war. Other than that, Marvel Studios hasn’t revealed much. Creative Team: Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck will direct. Although Nicole Perlman and Meg LeFauve wrote drafts of the screenplay together, Geneva Robertson-Dworet has taken over writing. The female team in front of and behind the camera makes it the perfect flick to release on International Women’s Day. Funny Girl: Robertson-Dworet can’t give away too much about the movie, but she noted that Captain Marvel knows how to deliver laughs. “Carol Danvers is one of the funniest comic book characters,” she told Entertainment Weekly. “She’s so sassy, she’s such a smartass, she won’t take [expletive] from anyone, and the comic books do an amazing job at capturing that voice, and it was important that the entire Captain Marvel creative team [kept to that].” Altered Origin: As previously reported, the origin story isn’t expected to be the same as the comics. Perlman noted that she didn’t want the story to look too similar to Green Lantern’s start, so some changes were made. “There’s a lot of reinvention that needs to happen,” she told the Any Time with Vin Forte podcast in 2016. Green Suit: Captain Marvel won’t start out in her red, blue and gold suit. Set photos revealed that she is in a green outfit. It could be a reference to the original Mar-Vell suit in the comics, or it might be a reference to her alliance with the Kree.

Having starred in his 2006 directorial debut Slither, James Gunn has revealed that he’ll be reuniting with actress Elizabeth Banks on a new horror movie which he is set to produce. “Elizabeth and I have been on the same artistic page since we first met when she auditioned for Slither back in 2005,” said Gunn. “She’s since remained one of my best friends in the world, and I’ve been fighting tooth and nail to work with her again. She’s the perfect partner to Yarvo, the H Collective and myself in creating this very special project.” Gunn, who is busy developing his next Marvel offering Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, will produce the as-yet-untitled horror, while David Yarovesky (The Hive) will direct from a script by Brian and Mark Gunn. Banks is currently preparing to star in Taylor Hackford’s upcoming drama Signal Hill, and has recently completed filming on Brian Henson’s puppet noir The Happytime Murders.

We still have two more Marvel movies on the docket for 2018 – AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR and ANT-MAN AND THE WASP – but already fans are dying to see what CAPTAIN MARVEL has in store when it arrives in 2019. Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige shared some more details on the movie, including how Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) factors into the adventure, and how the setting has influenced the style of the movie. While talking about the future of Marvel with EW, Feige shared a considerable amount of detail about the setting of MARVEL, in particular, talking about how the movie will find Fury discovering his first super-powered individual (Carol Danvers, played by Brie Larson), setting him on his path to forming the Avengers. We wanted to explore a period before Samuel L. Jackson’s Nick Fury had any idea about any of the other heroes and crazy stuff going on in the world. You know, we first met Nick when he told Tony [Stark], “You’re part of a big universe. You just don’t know yet.” Well, we want to go back to a time when he didn’t know it yet, and really showcase and announce that Carol Danvers was that first hero that Nick came across. That meant she could be the singular hero, but place it within timing of the MCU. It also got us talking about different genres, exploring this notion of sort of the ‘90s action film. We hadn’t necessarily done anything like that before either, so there are definitely homages to our favorite ‘90s action films within CAPTAIN MARVEL The movie will be set in the 90s, about a decade-plus before the events of IRON MAN, and Feige spoke more about the kinds of movies that influenced MARVEL. The movie may not take from the plot devices of any of those films, but they're certainly looking for inspiration in numerous action elements. Well, not necessarily talking about any particulars of the story, but the action elements TERMINATOR 2. That’s about as iconic as you get, looking at kind of those cool street level fights, street level car chases, and fun stuff like that. That being said, much of the movie takes place in outer space, as you might think a Captain Marvel movie would. Like all of our genre inspirations, there are bits and pieces here and there. In some ways, I'm looking forward to MARVEL more than AVENGERS and ANT-MAN, simply because I don't know what to expect. Going back to the 90s to reveal that Danvers has existed as a hero in this world years before the events of IRON MAN, but hasn't really shown herself to the world, opens up some exciting possibilities for this universe that will surely affect how things play out in AVENGERS 4 and onward. Plus, when you compare your movie to TERMINATOR 2 you can just take my money now. CAPTAIN MARVEL arrives exactly one year from yesterday on March 8, 2019.

Greg Berlanti, the superhero TV producer extraordinaire who has given DC fans the heroes they deserve on TV with Arrow, The Flash, Supergirl, and Legends of Tomorrow, still intends to direct a Booster Gold movie, with Zak Stentz (X-Men: First Class, Thor) having written a screenplay. It has been a while since there were any updates, but with Berlanti on the promotional trail for Love, Simon, it's time to talk about the Booster Gold movie again. Berlanti confirmed that the Booster Gold movie is "still in development with DC." “They’re trying to figure out both the distance that we still have to travel and how we want to execute it,” Berlanti told The Wrap. Adding that it's still unclear whether or not this will be part of the official DCEU or part of the slate of non-continuity standalone movies they're developing (that's where that weird Joker origin movie sits). This could make sense. After all, Booster is a time traveler, and that creates its own complications without trying to line things up with six other franchises. Booster Gold is a time traveler whose huge ego and hunt for celebrity masks the fact that he's actually one of the greatest heroes history will ever know. Flashy and tech-powered, he's a natural fit for the big screen. The Blue Beetle is Ted Kord, an inventor and non-powered superhero who becomes Booster's best friend. Both characters were members of the Justice League and had tremendous comedic rapport when written by Keith Giffen and JM DeMatteis and illustrated by Kevin Maguire and others

“The Sopranos” is get the big-screen treatment. New Line is developing a movie prequel, currently titled “The Many Saints of Newark,” penned by David Chase. Chase, who created the hit HBO series, wrote the screenplay with Lawrence Konner. Some of the fan-favorite characters from “The Sopranos” are expected to appear in the film — set in the era of the Newark riots in the 60s, when African-Americans and Italians were adversaries. Considered one of the greatest television series of all time, the groundbreaking series ran for six seasons on HBO from 1999 – 2007. Its numerous accolades include 21 Primetime Emmy Awards and five Golden Globe Awards. Chase will serve as producer as well as co-writer on the film. Nicole Lambert will serve as executive producer. Chase’s last feature film was the 2012 drama “Not Fade Away,” starring James Gandolfini. “David is a masterful storyteller and we, along with our colleagues at HBO, are thrilled that he has decided to revisit, and enlarge, the Soprano universe in a feature film,” Warner Bros. Pictures Group chairman Toby Emmerich said. Chase is repped by Peter Benedek and Andrew Cannava of UTA and Michael Gendler of Gendler and Kelly. Konner is repped by UTA.

Audiences preparing for Pacific Rim Uprising can learn more about one of the new movie’s most important players with a free, digital comic prologue launching on the LINE Webtoon platform Friday. Pacific Rim: Amara, by writers Cavan Scott, Zhang Ran and artist BigN, follows the titular character — played in the upcoming movie by newcomer Cailee Spaeny — as she survives a kaiju attack that kills the rest of her family, only to join another couple of survivors as they start to retro-engineer their own Jaeger to defend themselves from future attacks. The series is the exclusive debut for Amara and her Jaeger Scrapper, and the only place fans will be able to find out the true origins of both. The series, which will be released online every Friday, is the result of a collaboration between LINE Webtoon and Legendary Comics, which is also publishing a second prologue to Uprising, Pacific Rim Aftermath (also written by Scott). “This was an exciting adventure from beginning to end with a global creative team,” Editorial Director of Legendary Comics Robert Napton said in a statement. “We are delighted with the results of producing our first comic with this international team from China and the U.K., and we have found the perfect distribution partner in Webtoon. Our story deepens the understanding and appreciation of not only the character of Amara, but also her homemade Jaeger Scrapper. It’s an origin story that adds yet another layer to Pacific Rim, and dives into the world of Mech Racing. I hope fans enjoy it!”

With a string of box-office hits under his belt, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is one of the biggest action stars working today — and it turns out he's commanding a paycheck that's on a level Hollywood hasn't seen in years. Whether it's being matched with his "family" in the "Fast and Furious" franchise, teaming with Kevin Hart, or going it alone, Johnson is box-office gold — and because of that, he now commands over $20 million a movie. According to a term sheet of Johnson's that mirrored the final deal for the upcoming Universal movie "Red Notice" that The Wall Street Journal obtained, Johnson would earn $22 million to star in the movie, plus earn profits pending the movie's performance at the box office. The $22 million for Johnson is broken down to $21 million base pay and $1 million for Johnson's "social media support" towards the movie, according to the Journal. In regards to any profits on the movie, the producers — Johnson is one of them — and director Rawson Marshall Thurber ("Central Intelligence" and upcoming Johnson movie "Skyscraper") will receive 50%. That 50% will be split up, with Johnson receiving 30%, Thurber receiving 10%, and the other producers on the movie getting 10%. And that's not all. © Provided by Business Insider jumanji welcome to the jungle sony For each $25 million worldwide box office earned after the movie grosses 2.5 times its budget, Johnson, Thurber, and the producers pocket $1 million each. To put that in perspective, if a similar deal was made for Sony's "Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle" — which was made for $90 million and has now grossed over $931 million — Johnson would have pocketed tens of millions of dollars after his base pay. According to the Journal, all the major studios were interested in the "Red Notice" project and Universal won out. The final terms were not identical to the terms sheet, but according to the paper they "were close." The movie has a budget of around $160 million. Regardless, what Johnson can command is unheard of in today's Hollywood. Not since the late 1990s and early 2000s when actors like Will Smith, George Clooney, and Julia Roberts were earning $20 million paydays has the industry seen this. A big reason for that is with the popularity now of IPs and effects-heavy projects (like "Avatar"), moviegoers are buying tickets less for the stars, and more for the characters. But Johnson is a different breed. With his superhero size and charisma, Johnson is more the draw than him playing a known character (similar to Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sylvester Stallone in the 1980s). We may see "Red Notice" by 2020, but there's a lot of The Rock before then. Along with "Skyscraper" (which comes out this summer), he's got "Rampage" coming out in April.

Netflix has just dropped a ton of new content, but it was a release earlier this week that has everyone talking. Veronica, the Spanish horror movie, hit the streaming service on February 26 and viewers were immediately hooked. Critics and Netflix fans alike are raving about it, heralding Paco Plaza, it's director, as a genius for creating what is being dubbed 'the scariest horror movie ever'. Fright fans will remember Paco, of course, as the director of REC in 2007. While Veronica is slightly different to REC, it is no less impressive. Telling the story of a young girl, who has to raise her younger siblings as her mother is absent, it takes familiar horror tropes and adds a dose of reality. Young Veronica and her friends take a break from looking after the siblings and mess about with the Ouija board during a solar eclipse - worse time, who knew? Trying to summon the spirit of a dead friend, they accidentally disturb the spirit of her dead father - and then something or rather someone else. The movie relies on things lurking in the shadows, others skittering about, objects moving and a blind nun. Think The Exorcism of Emily Rose. It premiered at the Toronto Film Festival last year to rave reviews, but has only just come to Netflix. Rotten Tomatoes has it at 100% - an usual feat, especially for a horror movie. The real hook though is the fact you don't know what is real, and what is not. Playing with reality in such a way unsettles you enough to make you question everything. Mainly, why would you play with a Ouija board? It NEVER ends well. Is Veronica based on a true story? Yes! Possession ain't pretty (Image: Netflix/Sony Pictures) What makes this even better is the film is supposedly based on a true story taken from Madrid's police files in the early 1990s. The film’s credits roll over a terrified call to the police. The titles letting us know that what we seen is based on a real-life story. The events all took place in 1992 when a young girl in Vallecas, south Madrid, was briefly hospitalised and died after dabbling with a ouija board. The story begins with three friends playing with a Ouija board and ends three days later with Jose Pedro Negri, a police detective who entered a house to find it full of strange smells and noises. It is said to be the only time the word ‘unexplained’ marks a police file. The film fills in what happened in that three day span. With little to go on Paco’s movie plays fast and loose with facts.
