Some new rumors are suggesting that James Gunn may be adapting Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning’s Marvel Cosmic event Annihilation Conquest.
The user claims to have a 200-page notebook filled with Marvel info that he acquired while working at Marvel for the past year.
Details for Guardians of the Galaxy 2 include that “Marvel is ready to push Adam Warlock on everyone and it’s going to rock!” The user also says Guardians of the Galaxy 2 is still being written and that “Gunn keeps that close to his chest.”
When questioned in regards to what movie coming up should be the most exciting, the user responds, “Guardians 2.”
The user also suggests to read Abnett and Lanning’s Annihilation Conquest stating “it’s a good book.”
Adam Warlock is also said to be the “#1 ‘wow, blown away, didn’t see that coming’ type item.”
“Adam Warlock. He’s a character Marvel has been sitting on for years. When they put him into play, it’s going to elevate the MCU to something else all together,” the reported Marvel leaker said.
The leaker also added that no one has been cast as Adam Warlock as far as he knew.
Other details mentioned include:
Mephisto will be the “new Loki” for Phase 3.
Adam McKay, Matt Reeves and Gareth Edwards are wanted to direct Thor 3.
Beta Ray Bill is a possibility.
It’s said Marvel ended discussions with Sony about Spider-Man because: “Marvel didn’t feel like they wanted to wait on Sony and Avi Arad. They were playing hardball and were difficult to deal with. not worth Marvel’s time so they dropped discussions.”
New Infinity Stones will show up in Doctor Strange and Guardians of the Galaxy 2.
ABC’s Agents Of SHIELD will appear in The Avengers 2.
Hank Pym is said to be a “Villain” with the following also stated:
Flashbacks would reveal that Hank and Janet worked as a duo. During a small mission, Janet is killed. This devastates Hank.
He devotes himself and his company to protecting people. Think like Tony in IM1. Problem is, he becomes paranoid, over protective. The board and Cross decide that Pym is out of control, and that he’s abusing the company’s resources. they out him as president.
Hank then hires Scott to steal from Cross, which he has a plan which would put him back in control of his company. During third act Pym reveals that he has a plan to control heroes. He doesn’t want anybody to get hurt like Janet did. Hope and Scott see how deranged this is.
By end of movie, Cross is outed and Pym is back. He starts the hard path towards Civil War by setting up the Registration act with Tony who he sees as a tool to accomplish his goals.
Again, not a true ‘villain’ more of a misunderstood good guy.
It should be noted, another Reddit user claiming to be an actual Marvel intern is stating the above is false.
