Leaked Marvel Avengers Infinity War Spider-Man Announcement Trailer?

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18748:]]

Yesterday saw a rumor hit that stated Spider-Man would be featured in The Avengers: Infinity War – Part 1.

Then Sony publicly came out and stated the information was an “old rumor” with “no validity whatsoever.”

Now we’ve just been tipped off about a potential Marvel Avengers Infinity War Spider-Man announcement teaser.

We received an e-mail from a reader with a link to the following video on vidme.

Included with the video was the following:

Rough Cut Avengers/SpiderMan Announcemnt[sic] Video 23.11.2014

I’m a Sony employee that was laid off during the infamous Sony Hack that took place several months ago. Before I was let go I found an extremely early rough cut video sent to us by Marvel Studios for a join Avengers/Spider-Man announcement. Doesn’t show much beside stock footage and music from The Avengers (2012) with the title Avengers: Infinity War inside a bunch of spider-webs. Take the video how ever you like. Was filmed from my iPhone.

Obviously the video could be fake, and recently there has been the fake Batman Vs. Superman “Enter The Knight” trailer image in addition to the leaked image from the Fantastic Four movie.

The video below teases Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo and Chris Hemsworth, with the Avengers Infinity War logo shown wrapped in webbing.

Sony Denies Spider-Man Marvel Rumors

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18745:]]

Sony has finally commented on the rumors of Spider-Man returning to Marvel.

Earlier, a report surfaced online, which was filled with wild speculation and guess work, stated Spider-Man would be featured in The Avengers: Infinity War – Part 1.

Now Sony is stating it’s an “old rumor” with “no validity whatsoever.”

Following the rumor that was posted earlier today, CBR reached out to Sony who told them the rumor isn’t true.

“A Sony Pictures representative dismissed the report, calling it an ‘old rumor’ with ‘no validity whatsoever,'” CBR reports.

They also state they reached out to Marvel Studios, but haven’t received a reply.

Spider-Man returning to Marvel surfaced with leaked e-mails as a result of a hack attack by North Korea.

The e-mails read that Sony and Marvel had been in talks for Spider-Man to return, but nothing has been confirmed.

Of course, it’s still possible that Spider-Man could return to Marvel, but this is the first time Sony has publicly dismissed the notion.

Furthermore, some leaked e-mails did reveal that Sony executives wanted to keep Spider-Man and not work with Marvel.

Update: A possible Spider-Man Avengers Infinity War teaser has surfaced.

Poltergeist Remake Said To Be A Kids Movie

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18742:]]

The new Poltergeist movie is set to be released July 24, 2015, and now some new details have become known.

The Collider spoke with Sam Rockwell, who stars in the remake, where Rockwell offered the following:

It will be in 3-D:

“I’ve seen a little in looping.  I hope it’s good.  I really don’t know.  I really wish I could tell you.  I’m praying that it’s – I mean, it’s gonna be hard to live up to the first one.  The first one’s pretty damn good.  This one’s gonna be in 3D though, I can tell you that.”

Said to be more of a kids movie:

“The 10-year-old boy is really the protagonist this time.  JoBeth Williams was the protagonist for the most part in the first one and now the kid, it’s really through his point-of-view.  So it’s more of a kids’ movie so I don’t know if it’s gonna be like rated-R scary.”

Said to be more of an adventure film:

“It’s not like Conjuring type of scary.  You know, it’s a different kind of movie.  It’s more of an adventure.  It’s essentially a child abduction film when you come down to it.  I mean, the original Poltergeist is too.”

Another detail included in the article states the Poltergeist reimagining will see Jared Harris’ character, Carrigan Burke, as a “guy who ditches the world of academia to host the show Haunted House Cleaners.”

It’s also said the new Poltergeist will be rated PG-13, with it noted the original film was going to be rated-R, but Stephen Spielberg talked the MPAA into giving it a PG rating instead (PG-13 didn’t exist in 1982).

Matthew Vaughn Says Fantastic Four Is A Good Movie

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18741:]]

The Fantastic Four reboot has been taking a lot of heat.

There is the obvious in that Johnny Storm, ak The Human Torch, is being played by Michael B. Jordan.

There is mention of the new Doctor Doom being a computer hacker.

In addition, there has been talk that Marvel Comics has cancelled their Fantastic Four comic book because the CEO of Marvel, Ike Perlmutter, is at odds with Fox Studios over the film rights and ordered the cancellation. Marvel Comics even killed off the Fantastic Four movie cast.

The latest saw a possible logo image of the Fantastic Four movie leaked, which included details about the movie.

There is also the fact that Fantastic Four opens in about seven months, and Fox has yet to release a trailer or promote the film.

While all that might sound like a recipe for a disaster, some good news comes in the form of comments from Matthew Vaughn, producer on Fantastic Four.

Vaughn, known for Kick-Ass and the upcoming Kingsman: The Secret Service, has seen the Fantastic Four movie and says it’s good; however, there is one catch – if you liked Chronicle.

“I’ve seen the movie, it’s good,” Vaughn told Flickering Myth.“I thought Chronicle was a fantastic movie and [Josh] Trank has gone off and done his version of Fantastic Four. If you like Chronicle, then you’ll like this.”

Chronicle was Trank’s 2012 hit found-footage movie, written by Max Landis, that starred Jordan. The movie saw high-schoolers gain superpowers and followed their experiences and discoveries in real-world fashion. Josh Trank is also Disney’s choice to helm a Star Wars spinoff.

“We’re all backing Josh Trank’s vision,” Vaughn added. “And hopefully the world will like Josh Trank’s vision.”

Leaked e-mails as a result of the Sony hack also revealed Fox has plans for a Fantastic Four and X-Men crossover movie.

The latest regarding the Fantastic Four trailer is that it might be attached to Vaughn’s Secret Service, which gets released February 13th.

“Fantastic Four” has an August 7, 2015 release directed by Josh Trank starring Miles Teller as Reed Richards, Michael B. Jordan as Johnny Storm, Jamie Bell as Ben Grimm, Kate Mara as Sue Storm and Toby Kebbell as Victor von Doom.

Synopsis:

THE FANTASTIC FOUR, a contemporary re-imagining of Marvel’s original and longest-running superhero team, centers on four young outsiders who teleport to an alternate and dangerous universe, which alters their physical form in shocking ways. Their lives irrevocably upended, the team must learn to harness their daunting new abilities and work together to save Earth from a former friend turned enemy.

Spider-Man Marvel Deal Said To Have Gone Through

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18740:]]

A new report has hit the net stating, again, that Spider-Man and Marvel are a done deal.

The latest comes from Latino Review who speculates at length about the future of the Marvel Studios movies.

Among their guess work is a tidbit that Spider-Man will be in Avengers: Infinity Wars Part 1.

Their report may contain a few spoilers, but it’s nothing you haven’t read on any of the fan message boards or heard before.

It’s also again stated that Andrew Garfield is out, and Marvel will be recasting Spider-Man.

Spider-Man first returning to Marvel became known through leaked Sony executive e-mails as a result of a hack by North Korea.

The hacked e-mails revealed that Marvel and Sony have been in talks for Spider-Man to possibly be featured in Captain America: Civil War. It was revealed Marvel wanted a new actor as Spider-Man in addition to a new costume. Sony would still retain certain rights and would be able to create standalone Spider-Man movies of their own. Further e-mails revealed that if Spider-Man did go back to Marvel, Sony would fast-track a new Spider-Man movie following Captain America 3.

It was also reported that Sony was holding a Spider-Man Summit this month to finalize the details.

Neither Sony nor Marvel have commented on Spider-Man as of yet.

Update: Sony has stated the rumor has “no validity whatsoever.”

Update #2: A possible Spider-Man Avengers Infinity War teaser has surfaced.

Fantastic Four Logo and Details Leak Online

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18732:]]

We may have a first look at the logo for the Fantastic Four movie as well as a few details.

The info comes from a user on Reddit who claims to do work for Fox and also posted the following.

The relevant posts have since been deleted, but someone posted them on IMDB.

Potential spoilers follow.

Hello all! 

My name is…well, you can refer to me as Mr. Blue if you wish. 

I’m an employee at 20th Century Fox, and I usually specialize in editing. I help make rough cuts of movies before they get sent off for finalization. Anyway, a few months ago I was contacted to work on the 2nd rough cut for Fox’s Fantastic Four movie. I was pretty excited because I’m a big fan of the characters, and even though the movie didn’t sound great… I was still looking forward to seeing it. 

The movie itself wasn’t all bad – it feels like Chronicle 2, which isn’t a bad thing. It manages to keep the basis of the characters despite the race change for Johnny and the uh… original love story between two of the characters (I won’t mention who). Since I’m a fan, I decided to take a picture of the logo shown during the end credits for the fans. If this were any other scenario, I would have used a screenshot… however they trace our computers at work, so I had to be sneaky and use my cell phone. 

I hope you like this small glimpse of the movie, and I will try to leak more info for y’all in the future. 🙂 

Thanks for posting this.
The love story’s between Johnny and Ben, isn’t it?

No problem! I hate how Fox have been keeping you guys in the dark about the reboot, it’s wrong. They have no reason to be so secretive, seriously. 

LoL! No, it is not. 

Any info you can share on Domaschev? 

He’s an internet blogger and a programmer who works for Dr. Storm at the Baxter Institute. However, after he gets his powers he becomes closer to the classic 616 Doom in personality. There are many hints towards him becoming ruler of Latveria in the future. 

Is his look from the leaked set photos basically what he looks like in the movie? 
There are many hints towards him becoming ruler of Latveria in the future. 
Like what? 

Pretty much. There’s gonna be some CG enhancements, obviously. But it’s more or less the same. 

Towards the end of the movie, he tells the Four that he can do “good” with his power and help his homeland. 

How’s the CGI of The Thing? How much of the movie takes place in the Negative Zone? 

The CGI wasn’t finished yet, given that it’s a rough cut… but design wise, he looks fine. Very Thing-like. 

The first half of the second act and the final battle. I’d guess around 30 minutes in total is spent in the Negative Zone (referred to as Dimension N in the movie itself). 

Cool, thanks for answering. I have one last question if you don’t mind… 
Why do you think Fox is being so secretive about this movie? Is there anything completely terrible about the film that would make Fox be hesitant about marketing it? 

I really have no idea! In my personal opinion, the movie isn’t a complete trainwreck – it’s a genuinely good movie. 

I guess they don’t want to piss off the die-hard fans, but I really don’t know. 

“Fantastic Four” has an August 7, 2015 release directed by Josh Trank starring Miles Teller as Reed Richards, Michael B. Jordan as Johnny Storm, Jamie Bell as Ben Grimm,  Kate Mara as Sue Storm and Toby Kebbell as Victor von Doom.

Watch: Superman Tribute With Foo Fighters Music

Check out a cool tribute to the Man of Steel that a fan created on YouTube with “A Smallville Man.”

The Superman short was created using over 150 illustrations with the Foo Fighters song “Walk” used as the choice of music.

From the description:

The film explores the relationship between Superman’s past and present through separate stories that take us from the jungles of South America to the quaint streets of his hometown of Smallville. For those not quite familiar with South America, it’s like America but south. The two story lines ultimately converge thematically to show that the “S” on his chest represents not just his alien power but also the strength of his humanity.

Supergirl Described As Crime Series; Costume Is Awesome

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18725:]]

Coming out of the Television Critics Association from this past weekend are details about the CBS Supergirl TV series.

In their article, EW.com states “you can definitely expect the show to be a crime procedural,” which means Supergirl will be stopping the bad guys with each episode (and we are guessing not an actual detective).

However, it is also stated the Supergirl TV series will include serialized elements for an overall story arc for the season.

“There will be [crime] cases, but what [executive producers] Ali Adler and Greg Berlanti pitched was a real series arc for her,” CBS entertainment chairman Nina Tassler said. “The beauty of it is now with shows like Good Wife and Madam Secretary, you can have serialized story elements woven into a case of the week. She’s a crime solver, so she’s going to have to solve a crime. She’s going to get a bad guy.”

It’s also said that Supergirl hasn’t been cast yet, and it appears as if they are going for a lesser known actress for the role.

Tassler said of the actress that will end up playing Supergirl “She’s got to be an every woman. She’s got to be specific. She’s got to be a terrific actor.”

Tassler continued by describing Supergirl as: a very strong, independent young woman. She’s coming into her own. She’s dealing with family issues. She’s dealing with work issues. It’s a female empowerment story. If you look at the strong female characters we have on the air, it really is resonant of that … We’re big feminists. It’s her intellect, it’s her skill, it’s her smarts. It’s all of those elements. It’s not just her strength, which she does have.”

While Supergirl has yet to be cast, the Supergirl costume is ready.

“We have seen the costume,” Tassler said, adding that it’s being created by Oscar winner Colleen Atwood, who also did the costumes for Arrow and The Flash. “Awesome costume.”

It’s expected the Supergirl TV series will debut next Fall on CBS.
