Harrison Ford Survives Indiana Jones 5 Says Steven Spielberg

Steven Spielberg is returning to direct the fifth Indiana Jones movie for Disney and drops a tidbit regarding Harrison Ford whose Han Solo was killed off in Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

No worries, though, as Spielberg says the same thing isn’t happening to Indy.

Spielberg told THR he’s “super excited” about Indiana Jones 5 and offered, “I think this one is straight down the pike for the fans. The one thing I will tell you is I’m not killing off Harrison [Ford] at the end of it.” 

We can even speculate that news of not killing off Harrison Ford may even mean Ford may be brought back for more Indiana Jones movies.

The untitled Indiana Jones 5 has a July 19, 2019 release.

Joker’s Tattoos Have Meaning In Suicide Squad

That first pic of Jared Leto as The Joker in Suicide Squad saw the internet explode as many fans weren’t – and still are not –  happy with the look of the Joker, particularly in regards to the tattoos.

Director David Ayer spoke with Yahoo movies about the Joker tattoos and mentioned they have meaning as well as admitted they are controversial.

The tattoos tell a very specific story…And eventually people will decipher them and understand what’s going on, but obviously they’re contentious, any time you do something new it’s contentious. There’s very specific stories and easter eggs in those tattoos. And even his teeth, there’s an entire story behind that which is absolutely canon. It’s putting his history on his body. This Joker is a little more working class, who I believe could live in our world.

“Suicide Squad” has an August 5, 2016 release date directed by David Ayer starring Will Smith as Deadshot, Jared Leto as the Joker, Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, Cara Delevingne as Enchantress, Jai Courtney as Boomerang, Joel Kinnaman as Rick Flag, Viola Davis as Amanda Waller, Adam Beach as Slipknot, Karen Fukuhara as Katana, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje as Killer Croc, Jay Hernandez as El Diablo, and Scott Eastwood in an unknown role.

Synopsis:

It feels good to be bad… Assemble a team of the world’s most dangerous, incarcerated Supervillains, provide them with the most powerful arsenal at the government’s disposal, and send them off on a mission to defeat an enigmatic, insuperable entity. U.S. intelligence officer Amanda Waller has determined only a secretly convened group of disparate, despicable individuals with next to nothing to lose will do. However, once they realize they weren’t picked to succeed but chosen for their patent culpability when they inevitably fail, will the Suicide Squad resolve to die trying, or decide it’s every man for himself?

X-Men’s Shawn Ashmore Wants To Play Ghost Rider

Though Norman Reedus happens to be a HUGE fan-favorite choice to play Ghost Rider, X-Men’s Iceman, Shawn Ashmore, says he wouldn’t mind playing the Spirit Of Vengeance as well.

IGN caught up with Shawn Ashmore who also said he would be interested in an Iceman standalone movie.

“An Iceman solo movie? If Fox would make it, I would do it,” Ashmore said. “I love that character. I love the Marvel universe… If that was even an opportunity, absolutely.”

Ashmore went on to state that Iceman probably works better as a member of the X-Men, but when asked if he would play another super hero, he mentioned Ghost Rider.

“I would love to play another super hero. If I could play another super hero – it’s so tough – Marvel-wise, some of my favorite books… I love Nightcrawler, and I love Ghost Rider. I don’t know if I would ever get a chance to play those characters, but I would love to see another take on Ghost Rider.”

Watch Shawn Ashmore talk more about Iceman and Ghost Rider in the video below.

Star Wars: Episode VIII Rumors Hint At Jedi & Rey Origins

Warning: Possible spoilers for Star Wars: Episode VIII follow.

We get some potential insights as to the origins of the Jedi as well as Rey from a rumored Star Wars: Episode VIII script(?) leak featuring a scene and dialogue between Luke and Rey.

The scene seems to indicate that Luke takes Rey on some sort of Force vision journey (à la Force Awakens‘ Maz Katana) where the origins of the Jedi are revealed.

If legit, it says that Anakin Skywalker is not the Chosen One, but that this girl is actually “The One” (sounds a lot like The Matrix).

The info says that a brother and sister discover a tree which gives them Force powers. The brother ends up killing the girl and their mother and father. He then gets transformed into what sounds like the first Dark Side/first Sith. The girl then gets transformed into the Light side.

It’s then said that the girl (“The One”) trains locals as being the first Jedi Order, and that one day she will return as “The One” — either as a boy or a girl — to bring balance to The Force.

Luke then explains that the Jedi got it wrong about Anakin being The One, which led to the earlier Star Wars movies and Vader.

We can speculate that Rey is “The One,” and that the tree may be located on Ahch-To, the planet at the end of Force Awakens where Rey meets Luke.

Read it for yourself below (click to enlarge).

Wonder Woman Coming To Comic-Con; Batman Vs. Superman Featurette Announced & Logo

DC officially announces plans for Wonder Woman‘s 75th anniversary, which includes Comic-Con, a Batman Vs. Superman Blu-Ray featurette and more (Suicide Squad will be at Comic-Con as well).

See below.

 

Info:

New Commemorative Logo Kicks Off Festivities Leading to First Solo Film in 2017

 

To mark the 75th anniversary of one of the world’s best-known Super Heroes, Warner Bros. Entertainment and DC Entertainment today unveiled plans for a year-long celebration of Wonder Woman. The character has transcended the pages of comics to become a powerful global symbol of justice, equality and peace.

Beginning with a new commemorative logo honoring the Amazon Princess’s legacy, highlights of the year will include the relaunch of her comic book series; new graphic novels; convention panels; and consumer products, including apparel, toys and other exclusive merchandise. These and further anniversary events will culminate in the release of the very first “Wonder Woman” feature film on June 2, 2017.

First seen in October 1941 in All-Star Comics #8 in a back-up story meant to test her appeal at a time when female superheroes were rare, Wonder Woman quickly broke out and headlined her own title by the next year. Subsequent generations came to know the star-spangled heroine with metal bracelets on her wrists and a magic lasso by her waist via her hit 1975-79 television series and roles in animated shows and movies, as well as her historic appearance on the cover Ms. Magazine #1 in 1972. This past March, Wonder Woman was seen for the first time in a live action motion picture with her introduction in the global blockbuster Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.

“Wonder Woman is a legend around the world and one of the most valuable franchises at our studio, and we’re thrilled to celebrate this anniversary,” said Kevin Tsujihara, Chief Executive Officer, Warner Bros. “Millions of fans already know her from comic books, television, and her big screen debut in ‘Batman v Superman,’ but the upcoming year building to her first solo film will be the most dynamic and exciting in the character’s history.”

Over the decades, Wonder Woman has run for president, organized a union, flown an invisible plane, lost and regained her powers, studied martial arts, battled Ares, the God of War, worked at a fast food chain, and had a romantic relationship with Superman. Her diverse history will be integrated and celebrated in a new comic book series launching this month as part of DC Universe: Rebirth that honors what fans love most about the character.

Written by fan favorite Greg Rucka and on sale June 22nd, Wonder Woman #1 will be the first print debut of the new Wonder Woman 75th commemorative logo. Other variations of the new logo created for various products merge the character’s name and traditional “W” symbols with the number 75, set alongside a striking blue silhouette of the iconic character in a warrior stance.

“Wonder Woman has long stood with Batman and Superman in the trinity of DC’s most iconic Super Heroes, but she also stands alone as a symbol of equality, justice and female empowerment and is more relevant today than ever,” said Diane Nelson, President of DC Entertainment, President of Warner Bros. Consumer Products, and President and Chief Content Officer of Warner Bros. Interactive Entertainment. “With her roots in Greek mythology and American feminism, Wonder Woman is one of the most unique and compelling characters in comic book history; her longevity is a testament to her global appeal and the special place she holds in the hearts of generations of girls who have imagined wielding their own lassos of truth.”

Created by William Moulton Marston, a psychologist who invented the lie-detecting polygraph machine, Wonder Woman was conceived as a new type of superhero who used wisdom and compassion, not just her fists, to triumph over evil. Daughter of the queen of the all-female Amazon tribe from Greek mythology, Wonder Woman was imbued by the gods with powers, including super-strength and a lasso that compels anyone it surrounds to tell the truth. Wearing a costume inspired by the flag of a downed American pilot, she travelled to “patriarch’s world” to fight for such values as peace and equality. She is the only female comic book character to have her own stories continuously published for the past three quarters of a century.

Among the events and products Wonder Woman fans can look forward to over the next year from Warner Bros. and DC Entertainment are:

• At long last, June 2, 2017, will see the long-held hopes of millions of fans fulfilled as the first “Wonder Woman” movie is released in cinemas worldwide, starring Gal Gadot in the title role, Chris Pine as Captain Steve Trevor, Robin Wright as the Amazonian General Antiope and Connie Nielsen as Queen Hippolyta, directed by Patty Jenkins.
• A “Wonder Woman 75” panel at San Diego Comic-Con International in July 2016 will celebrate the history and future of the Super Hero, along with displays at DC’s booth of Lynda Carter’s original costume from the 1970s television series and numerous additional costumes, including the one worn by star Gal Gadot in the upcoming film.
• A commemorative box set of Wonder Woman’s greatest stories to be released by DC in July, as well as a hardcover special edition celebrating her 75th anniversary to be released in October and available through the holidays.
• A life-size Wonder Woman invisible jet will be on display at San Diego Comic-Con and the rare plane will illuminate at night for fan photos, along with one-of-a-kind Wonder Woman-inspired graffiti-art pieces. WBCP and Mattel will offer an exclusive anniversary DC Multiverse™ Wonder Woman Action Figure and Invisible Jet combo set (available exclusively on Mattycollector.com beginning June 17) designed especially for the 75th celebration.

Transformers: The Last Knight Story Rumors Sound Horrible

My high hopes of seeing Unicron unleashed in Transformers: The Last Knight look to be crushed based on new rumors surrounding the movie, which sound frickin’ horrible.

Per the title, JoBlo is stating the plot of Transformers: The Last Knight will center around the legend of the Merlin and the Arthurian Knights of the Round Table.

The details have it that Optimus Prime finds his home planet of Cyberton, which is now dead — and Optimus is responsible for killing it. Well, Optimus finds a way to bring Cybertron back to life with the help of an artifact that is on Earth. 

It’s said the artifact ties in with Merlin as – get this – the power of magic was given to Merlin by a Transformer, which the artifact ties into (somehow). It’s also speculated it may have something to do with the sword, Excalibur (again per the title logo).

If the plot details are indeed true, it basically sounds like Michael Bay is adapting the Arthurian legend of the Knights of the Round Table, the Holy Grail (could be the artifact), and I am wondering if Bay is going to throw in the Merovingians, Mary Magdalene and the Illuminati to boot. 

What a disaster.

That said, JoBlo also has it that:

• Bumblebee will me more the leader as Optimus is off on his own mission. 

• Hound, Crosshairs, and Drift are said to be returning. 

• The Autobots have set up camp in the Badlands of South Dakato, which serves as their base of operations. 

• Dinobots are said to be back in addition to “mini-dinobots” (unclear what that means).

• Three new Transformers will be featured in the movie, including some with “English” origins (meaning English accents).

• It’s speculated Anthony Hopkins is voicing one of the “English” Transformers.

• One of the “English” Transformers is called “The Creator” who is said to have ties to the origins of the Transformers.

• Another “English” Transformer is named Cogman whose vehicle-mode is an Astin Martin.

• A third “English” Transformer is said to be named Squeaks whose vehicle-mode is a Vespa.

• As previously made known, Megatron will be the villain (Barricade is back, too), with this report stating he will be able to change into a jet figher.

“Transformers: The Last Knight” has a June 23, 2017 release directed by Michael Bay starring Mark Wahlberg, Josh Duhamel, Stephen Merchant, Isabela Moner, Jean Dujardin, Jerrod Carmichael, Allen Phoenix, Anthony Hopkins, with Peter Cullen returning as the voice of Optimus Prime.

“A little behind the scenes. The hardest working and kindest actor in all of Hollywood,” Singer posted on Instagram with the haghtags: #HughJackman #Wolverine #XMen #XMenApocalypse.

Hugh Jackman is currently filming his third and final untitled Wolverine movie.

Also check out behind-the-scenes images of Hugh Jackman as Wolverine from the movie below.

Me and this cool dude. Taken at the end of February 2016 on set in Montreal when Mr. Jackman filmed his epic cameo for Xmen Apocalypse as Wolverine/Weapon X. Anyone who has not seen it yet better go this weekend or soon. Hugh is a truly awesome guy and incredibly genuine. A gentle giant who is gracious and funny. My creative and talented friend Bryan (@bryanjaysinger) picked him 17 years ago for this now incredibly iconic role. Hugh is very accessible though and so engaging and natural.

Donald Glover Cast In Spider-Man: Homecoming

It’s learned Donald Glover will be joining the ranks of Spider-Man: Homecoming.

THR reports Glover’s role is being kept a secret.

Donald Glover has been a fan-favorite choice to play the Ultimate universe version of Spider-Man, Miles Morales, and even embraced the concept when fans started a campaign for it.

Glover did voice Miles Morales for the Ultimate Spider-Man cartoon as well.

Donald Glover is now 32-years-old, so more than likely he wouldn’t be playing Miles Morales Spider-Man, but it’s possible he could simply appear as “Miles Morales,” in the movie which would be a nod to the fans. 

Miles Morales also happens to be a Brian Michael Bendis-created character, and we know Marvel Studios president and producer Kevin Feige recently booted Bendis from having any more involvement in the Marvel movies as part of Ike Perlmutter’s Marvel Comics creative committe that made a mess with things at Marvel Studios and previous films.

“Spider-Man: Homecoming” has a July 7, 2017 release also starring Tom Holland, Robert Downey Jr., Michael Keaton, Marisa Tomei, Zendaya, Laura Harrier, Tony Revolori, Michael Barbieri and Kenneth Choi.

Watch: Pete’s Dragon Trailer #2

Watch a new trailer below for Pete’s Dragon.

Pete’s Dragon has an August 12th release directed by David Lowerly starring Robert Redford, Bryce Dallas Howard, Karl Urban, Wes Bentley, Craig Hall, Oona Laurence and Oakes Fegley.

Synopsis:

A reimagining of Disney’s cherished family film, “Pete’s Dragon” is the adventure of an orphaned boy named Pete and his best friend Elliott, who just so happens to be a dragon. “Pete’s Dragon” stars Bryce Dallas Howard (“Jurassic World”), Oakes Fegley (“This is Where I Leave You”), Wes Bentley (“The Hunger Games”), Karl Urban (“Star Trek”), Oona Laurence (“Southpaw”) and Oscar® winner Robert Redford (“Captain America: The Winter Soldier”). The film, which is directed by David Lowery (“Ain’t Them Bodies Saints”), is written by Lowery & Toby Halbrooks based on a story by Seton I. Miller and S.S. Field and produced by Jim Whitaker, p.g.a. (“The Finest Hours,” “Friday Night Lights”), with Barrie M. Osborne (“The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring,” “The Great Gatsby”) serving as executive producer.

For years, old wood carver Mr. Meacham (Robert Redford) has delighted local children with his tales of the fierce dragon that resides deep in the woods of the Pacific Northwest. To his daughter, Grace (Bryce Dallas Howard), who works as a forest ranger, these stories are little more than tall tales…until she meets Pete (Oakes Fegley). Pete is a mysterious 10-year-old with no family and no home who claims to live in the woods with a giant, green dragon named Elliott. And from Pete’s descriptions, Elliott seems remarkably similar to the dragon from Mr. Meacham’s stories. With the help of Natalie (Oona Laurence), an 11-year-old girl whose father Jack (Wes Bentley) owns the local lumber mill, Grace sets out to determine where Pete came from, where he belongs, and the truth about this dragon. Disney’s “Pete’s Dragon” opens in U.S. theaters on August 12, 2016.

FEAR COMES HOME AS CAPCOM ANNOUNCES RESIDENT EVIL® 7 biohazard

Resident Evil® Ushers in a New Era of Innovative, Immersive and Visceral Horror

 

LOS ANGELES — June 13, 2016 — At the Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE) E3 press conference today, Capcom, a leading worldwide developer and publisher of video games, announced Resident Evil 7 biohazard, the next major entry in the renowned Resident Evil series. Resident Evil 7 sets a new course for the Resident Evil series as it leverages its roots and opens the door to a truly terrifying horror experience. A dramatic new shift for the series to first person view in a photorealistic style powered by Capcom’s new RE Engine, Resident Evil 7 delivers an unprecedented level of immersion that brings the thrilling horror up close and personal. Resident Evil 7 is scheduled for release on PlayStation 4 computer entertainment system (the full gameplay experience will also be available via the included PlayStation VR Mode), Xbox One and Windows PC (Steam and Windows 10 Store) across North America and Europe on January 24, 2017.

Set in modern day rural America and taking place after the dramatic events of Resident Evil 6, players experience the terror directly from the first person perspective. The Resident Evil 7 Teaser: Beginning Hour demo, also announced today, portrays events leading up to the main game and ties directly into the impactful PlayStation VR “KITCHEN” tech demo first shown at E3 2015. In the new teaser demo, the player awakens inside a dilapidated cottage on an ominous plantation mansion. Can they make it out alive?

Resident Evil 7 embodies the series’ signature gameplay elements of exploration and tense atmosphere that first coined “survival horror” some twenty years ago; meanwhile, a complete refresh of gameplay systems simultaneously propels the survival horror experience to the next level. Terrifying fans at events across the globe last year, the PlayStation VR “KITCHEN” tech demo was developed utilizing the RE Engine’s VR oriented tools, and is the foundation on which the talented Resident Evil team has crafted the immersive horror experience in Resident Evil 7. Powered by the RE Engine in tandem with industry leading audio and visual technologies, Resident Evil 7 is poised to deliver a disturbingly realistic experience that will define the next era in horror entertainment.

PlayStation Plus subscribers can now download the standalone teaser demo for PlayStation 4 called Resident Evil 7 Teaser: Beginning Hour and will have first access before it is available on other platforms at a later date. Players can get a taste of what they can expect from Resident Evil 7 with a sampling of the nail-biting exploration and terrifying atmosphere the game will offer when it releases early next year. Attendees of E3 will be able to try out a demo on either PlayStation 4 or PlayStation VR at the Capcom booth in South Hall #2023 or try the PlayStation VR demo at the Sony booth in West Hall #4522 and #4144.
