First Look At Stan Lee In Agent Carter

Stan Lee will appear in the fourth episode Tuesday, January 27 at 9:00 p.m. ET on ABC.

Years before Agent Coulson and his S.H.I.E.L.D. team swore to protect those who cannot protect themselves from threats they cannot conceive, there was Agent Peggy Carter (Hayley Atwell, Marvel’s “Captain America: The First Avenger,” Marvel’s “Captain America: The Winter Soldier”), who pledged the same oath but lived in a different time when women weren’t recognized as being as smart or as tough as their male counterparts. But no one should ever underestimate Peggy.

With Vin Diesel vying to play Black Bolt in the Marvel Studios Inhumans movie, a fan on Tumblr has created the following image of the actor as the man with the destructive superhuman voice.

A couple of weeks ago saw Vin Diesel post an image of himself (above) on Facbook that read “Are you Inhuman?“

Vin Diesel also previously stated he was in talks for a new Marvel franchise that would merge the Marvel brands, which may mean the Avengers and Marvel Cosmic (i.e. Guardians of the Galaxy).

Spoiler Confirmed As Reverse Flash, But There’s More

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18709:]]

With today’s announcement that The Flash has been renewed for a Season 2 comes with it the identity of the Reverse Flash.

Dr. Harrison Wells, played by Tom Cavanagh, is the Reverse Flash.

“He’s the man in the yellow suit. Yes, I am Reverse Flash,” Cavanagh revealed during The CW’s Television Critics Association’s panel, reports EW.com. 

While Cavanagh revealed he was the Reverse Flash, executive producer Andrew Kreisberg adds something that doesn’t quite fit as he suggests there is another Reverse Flash.

“We’re going to see what happened that night [Barry’s mother was murdered] from the Reverse Flash’s point of view,” Kreisberg said. “I didn’t say it was from Wells’ point of view, I said it was from the Reverse Flash’s point of view.”

It’s possible a second Reverse Flash might be Eddie Thawne, played by Rick Cosnett, as the same episode saw the Reverse Flash hesitate in striking Eddie, and Thawne is the character in the DC comics as well.

“His name is not an accident,” Kreisberg said. “Eddie’s connection to the Reverse Flash lore is going to pay off big time in the back half of the year.”

It’s also reported that Cavanagh stated “there is just one Reverse Flash,” which has started speculation that Wells and Thawne might actually be one and the same person, with Wells a future version of Thawne (or how about from a different Earth ala “Crisis”?).

“The Flash” returns Tuesday, January 20th at 8pm ET on the CW.

Watch: New Star Wars Lightsaber Crossguards Tested Out

With the recent debut of the teaser trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens (watch below) came with it a bit of controversy surrounding the look of the new lightsaber.

Some fans complained online that the crossguards might hurt the wielder as they appear to be energy shooting out from side-to-side.

Another theory is that whomever built the lightsaber didn’t know what he/she was doing, which is why the crossguards were built to possibly funnel away excess energy.

Well, just maybe the person that did build the new lightsaber was smarter than everyone else.

Check out the video above where the Thegn Thrand YouTube channel puts the new Star Wars: The Force Awakens lightsaber to the test.

They test the crossguard out to see if it would indeed hurt the wielder or it it would be an effective weapon against an opponent.

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18708:]]

“Star Wars: The Force Awakens” has a December 18, 2015 release directed by J.J. Abrams from a screenplay by Lawrence Kasdan and Abrams. Kathleen Kennedy, J.J. Abrams, and Bryan Burk are producing, and John Williams returns as the composer.

Actors John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Oscar Isaac, Andy Serkis, Domhnall Gleeson, Max von Sydow, Lupita Nyong’o and Gwendoline Christie will join the original stars of the saga, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill, Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew, and Kenny Baker in the new film.

Vixen Animated Series Announced In Same Universe As The Flash & Arrow

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18704:]]

The CW has added another DC Comics character to its roster with Vixen, which will be an animated series set in the same universe as The Flash and Arrow.

KSite TV revealed that Arrow executive producer Marc Guggenheim will be overseeing the project, with the series set to debut in the Fall.

In addition, two promo images were revealed at today’s Television Critics Associate press tour revealing the animated version of Vixen alongside animated versions of The Flash and Arrow.

The CW also announced renewed seasons for The Flash and Arrow, as well as a new trailer for iZombie and a first look at the Robbie Amell Firestorm costume.

In the DC Comics, Vixen debuted in 1981 and is the alter-ego of Mari Jiwe McCabe. Vixen has a “mystical Tantu totem that gives her the abilities of one animal at a time.”

The character is described as follows:

“Originally from Africa, Mari McCabe’s parents were killed by local greed, corruption, and wanton violence. But the orphaned Mari refuses to succumb to the terrors surrounding her. Inhereting her family’s Tantu Totem, Mari can access the powers of animals — anything from the super-strength of a gorilla to the speed of a cheetah. As Vixen, she fights valiantly to protect the world from the threats like those that claimed her family.”

Update: Vixen will launch on the CW’s digital offshoot Seed in the Fall.

Watch: Better Call Saul Extended Trailer

AMC has released an extended trailer for the upcoming Breaking Bad spinoff, Better Call Saul.

Better Call Saul kicks off with a two-night series premiere on Sunday, February 8th at 10/9c and Monday, February 9th at 10/9c.

About

Better Call Saul is the prequel to the award-winning series Breaking Bad, set six years before Saul Goodman (Bob Odenkirk) became Walter White’s lawyer. When we meet him, the man who will become Saul Goodman is known as Jimmy McGill, a small-time lawyer searching for his destiny, and, more immediately, hustling to make ends meet. Working alongside, and often against, Jimmy is “fixer” Mike Erhmantraut (Jonathan Banks), a beloved character introduced in Breaking Bad. The series will track Jimmy’s transformation into Saul Goodman, the man who puts “criminal” in “criminal lawyer.”

The series also stars Michael McKean as Chuck, Rhea Seehorn as Kim, Patrick Fabian as Hamlin, and Michael Mando as Nacho — characters that will represent both legitimate and illegitimate sides of the law.

Breaking Bad creator and showrunner Vince Gilligan and Breaking Bad writer and producer Peter Gould created the show together and serve as co-showrunners of the premiere season. Gilligan directed the first episode of the series, which has already been greenlit for a second season of 13 episodes. The debut season will consist of 10 episodes.

Corey Stoll Dishes On Yellowjacket In Ant-Man

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18692:]]

Corey Stoll is set to play the villain of the Ant-Man movie Darren Cross, aka Yellowjacket.

While speaking with EW.com, Stoll offers some background on the character with specific details.

“I was this child prodigy that Michael Douglas’ character Hank Pym discovered at an early age,” Stoll said of his character. “He nurtured me and I was part of his technology company. I started to become aware of these rumors of this fabled technology that can shrink people to half an inch while keeping their full-size strength. And I became very obsessed with it and demanded that we move forward. But Pym had sort of buried it for ethical, moral reasons.” 

The article continues with mention of an interesting tidbit regarding Evangeline Lilly’s character, Hope Van Dyne, in that she “colludes” with Stoll to take over Hank Pym’s company, with Stoll adding the following revealing the Yellowjacket suit is more advanced than the Ant-Man suit.

“Now, I’ve discovered my own version of that technology and I’m using it for militaristic purposes,” Stoll said. “I’ve even started to use the technology myself, which as a sort of psychotic effect on people if they use it too much. I can’t get into the details of all the goodies of the Yellowjacket suit but it’s several generations advanced from what Ant-Man has. And then I put it on—and then I am Yellowjacket!” 

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18693:]]

“Ant-Man” has a July 17, 2015 release directed by Peyton Reed starring Michael Douglas as Hank Pym, Paul Rudd as Scott Lang, Evangeline Lilly as Hope Van Dyne and Corey Stoll as Darren Cross/Yellowjacket.
