Anthony & Joe Russo Talk Black Panther & Spider-Man Sides In Captain America: Civil War

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23779:]]

While speaking with the foreign press about Captain America: Civil War, Anthony and Joe Russo were asked about Black Panther and Spider-Man, with it brought up the characters are similar in that they aren’t directly connected to The Avengers. The Russo brothers talk about the sides the characters may or may not choose in addition to letting it be known when Spider-Man gets introduced in the film.

“They both have a special place in Civil War because of the reasons you’re saying,” Anthony Russo offered. “They don’t fall neatly into either side.”

“For the emotional reasons that Tony and Cap do,” Joe Russo added.

On Black Panther:

“Black Panther is one of our favorite characters in the movie because he is on his own side in this film,” Anthony Russo said. “He’s not aligned with either side, and he has his own road forward with the movie that’s very central to the plot of the film – like he’s very invested emotionally – but it doesn’t fall into clean sides.”

On Spider-Man:

“Spider-Man, similarly, enters the movie after the Avengers pick sides,” Anthony Russo continued. “He doesn’t have a huge investment politically, but he develops a very personal relationship why he picks a side. I won’t talk about the personal relationship he develops. It’s very interesting. Very Cool. One of the most special parts of the movie.”

The Russo’s also smiled and responded “I don’t know” when asked if we’ll ever get a glimpse of Spider-Man before Captain America: Civil War.

“Who knows. Who can say,” Joe Russo teased with a grin.

“Captain America: Civil War” has a May 6, 2016 release date directed by Anthony and Joe Russo starring Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Elizabeth Olsen, Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Frank Grillo, Paul Bettany, Don Cheadle, Emily VanCamp, William Hurt, Martin Freeman and Chadwick Boseman as Black Panther.

Synopsis:

Captain America: Civil War picks up where Avengers: Age of Ultron left off, as Steve Rogers leads the new team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity. After another international incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability and a governing body to determine when to enlist the services of the team. The new status quo fractures the Avengers while they try to protect the world from a new and nefarious villain.

Anthony & Joe Russo Would Be Interested In Black Widow Movie

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23778:]]

If Marvel Studios was ever to make a Black Widow solo movie, would Anthony and Joe Russo, the directors behind Captain America: Civil War, be interested?

You betcha.

Anthony and Joe Russo were asked about a Black Widow movie while doing press for the Chinese. Here is what they had to say:

“Hell, yeah. We love that character,” Joe Russo responded.

“And we love Scarlett [Johansson],” Anthony Russo added.

“We find that the character is one of the richest, if not the richest character,  in the Marvel universe,” Joe Russo said. “A very complex character, who is haunted by demons and her understanding of the world is fascinating. I think there is a lot that can be done with that character.”

Regarding Black Widow in Captain America: Civil War, Anthony Russo said:

“Her and Captain America, I think their relationship came to a very intersting place in The Winter Soldier. They developed a trust of one another that was really intersting. One of our favorite parts of that movie was the relationship between him and her. And so because they have such a thick emotional relationship, yes, in Civil War, of course we are going to use that. She has a very important role in Civil War, it’s a very complicated role in Civil War, and it goes very much to the heart of the relationship of her and Captain America.

“Captain America: Civil War” has  a May 6, 2016 release date directed by Anthony and Joe Russo starring Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Elizabeth Olsen, Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Frank Grillo, Paul Bettany, Don Cheadle, Emily VanCamp, William Hurt, Martin Freeman and Chadwick Boseman as Black Panther.

No Red Hulk For Captain America: Civil War

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23777:]]

With William Hurt reprising as General Thunderbolt Ross from The Incredible Hulk movie for Captain America: Civil War, some fans online speculated the Red Hulk might make an appearance.

Now in an interview with the Chinese press, Anthony and Joe Russo shoot down an appearance by the Red Hulk.

“There’s always a chance in Marvel you could see anything, but let’s say: There is no Red Hulk in Civil War.”

The Russo’s also offer a description of the role Ross will be playing in Captain America: Civil War.

“General Ross is a big presence in Civil War. He’s a character who was ham-fisted in his approach in The Incredible Hulk. I think that’s a polite way to put it. And I think he’s learned from his over-aggressiveness in that movie and he’s become more of a politicaian. He’s much savvier now, and he’s cornering the Avengers. Superheroes have always been anathema to him; he’s not a fan of them. So now he’s come at them strategically, by aligning the world against them and cornering them… I think you’ll find he’s grown as a character, he’s different than he was in Incredible Hulk, and he’s a more formidable, policital opponent to him.”

Watch: Weaponized Trailer; Stars Tom Sizemore, Mickey Rourke & More

Check out the cool trailer above for the upcoming sci-fi movie Weaponized, which stars Tom Sizemore and Mickey Rourke.

Weaponized arrives on Blu-ray, DVD & Digital HD March 1st directed by Timothy Woodward Jr. also starring Johnny Messner and Jon Foo.

Info:

A damaged homicide detective must prevent a grieving father from unleashing a “robotic virus” in Weaponized, an action-packed thriller arriving on Blu-ray, DVD & Digital HD March 1. Ripped-from-the-headlines horrors meets 21st century weapons tech in this muscular sci-fi film featuring an all-star action cast with Tom Sizemore (Saving Private Ryan, Black Hawk Down, Heat), Mickey Rourke (The Wrestler, Iron Man 2), Johnny Messner (4GOT10) and Jon Foo, star of the upcoming CBS series “Rush Hour”.

After a blatant terrorist attack on the Pentagon, and the resulting new war on terror, private military contractor Kyle Norris (Sizemore) facilitates the development of a bio-mechanical weapons program by Professor Clarence Peterson (Rourke). The next-gen program allows soldiers to swap consciousness with a target, giving them temporary, yet complete, control.  While the program was intended to combat terrorists and safe guard American soldiers, abuse has been rampant.  Enter down-and-out Detective Walker (Messner), who unwittingly stumbles upon the failing bio-weapons program, and he’s forced to fight to both shut it down and protect his young family from those who’ll stop at nothing to keep things moving forward.

Timothy Woodward Jr., the producer/director behind the recent action films Checkmate, starring Danny Glover, Sean Astin and Vinne Jones and 4Got10 starring Dolph Lundgren, Danny Trejo, Vivica Fox and Johnny Messner, delivers a non-stop genre film that delivers both thrills and a shocking twist of an ending that’ll keep audiences guessing until the credits roll. Taylor Cole (“CSI: Miami” and “The Glades”) and Michael Paré also co-star; bonus features include deleted scenes.

Weaponized gave us the unique opportunity to combine fast-paced action with an intellectual scientific element that really makes you think. With the plot being set in the future, we were able to really use our imagination and create our own world, making the storytelling more exciting and challenging,” said Woodward Jr.

Captain America: Civil War Spider-Man Costume & Scene Description Lands Online

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23775:]]

In addition to a possible first look at Spidey merchandise, a potential description for Spider-Man in Captain America: Civil War lands online.

A redditor posted some Atlanta set images from Captain America: Civil War in which he states Spider-Man was in involved. The description appears to be from early filming as it’s noted Tom Holland wasn’t apparently cast, and they may have been using a placeholder costume.

We do see the scene may involve both Captain America and Falcon, and Iron Man even gets a mention.

Hello! I am the previously described friend.

To be more accurate, Spidey wasn’t in the scene they were filming outside my place, but they were reviewing VFX work on a macbook pro after filming for the day.

I only knew they were VFX shots because the guys were doing things that were impossible to be filmed on the day (Cap throwing his shield at a full IronMan suit flying in the air, etc) and from my admittedly distant view, it looked photoreal and not an animatic.

After the action beats, there were several shots of Spidey sitting or standing on the edge of a building next to (I believe) Ironman and several other super heroes. He was visibly shorter than everyone which was a pretty cool look. You could really tell he was a kid. Overall the suit looked pretty similar to the Andrew Garfield Amazing Spiderman 2 outfit with the large comic-booky eyes, except this time they were extremely reflective. I’ve since read rumors about him having goggles, but from what I saw they were the same large spidey-shape we’re used to, and there was no visible strap around his head. It makes sense that they could be reflective glass, though. (Basically chrome eyes – not white or matte silver.) The only reason why this stuck out to me was because Spidey’s eyes were reflecting the setting sun.

But take all of this with a grain of salt as far as final designs go. At that time they had flown multiple actors out here for screen-tests, so no one had been locked down as Spider-Man yet. Plus with the other obvious-CG shots, I’m assuming the outfit I saw was fully CG, and could just be a placeholder. (Like I said, from what little I saw, it looked a lot like the 2nd Garfield Spider-Man movie, which admittedly is extremely close to the comic design.)

Anyway, as proof, here’s two shots I took earlier in the day. 

The only thing really sticking out to me are those patches on the arms. I didn’t catch that at all from what I saw. Basically the only takeaway I had at the time is that the general shapes were very much the Spidey we know. It wasn’t the weird tapered swirly basketball crap from Amazing 1, nor was it a patched together costume a kid would make. The eye size was comparable to the last Andrew Garfield film, but were highly reflective like glass. All in all it just looked like a good Spider-Man….just one a good couple of inches shorter than the rest of the Avengers. I didn’t see anything lower than his hips, I think, so I don’t know if he had shoe soles or anything like that for his feet. Truthfully if my buddy didn’t bring it up in this thread, I really wouldn’t have chatted on the internet about it because there isn’t a whole lot different about the overall design from what I could make out. It was just cool to see Spider-Man. 🙂 

 

Scene said to have filmed in this building in Atlanta:

Well, typical to the internet, some fans went nuts as not many Rey toys were available, with cries of misogyny and male chauvinism hitting various social networks.

And typical of the internet, they were wrong as Disney was simply holding back on Rey as to avoid the spoiler that she is the star of the film.

Now that the movie is out, Disney has unveiled their Wave 2 line of figures for Star Wars: The Force Awakens, where we see Rey is promintely featured. Happy?

Guillermo Del Toro Says Pacific Rim 2 Is Still In Development

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23767:]]

Contrary to an earlier report from last Thursday that stated Pacific Rim 2 has been shelved, the sequel to the 2013 film is stated to still be in development.

Following a report by THR, Guillermo Del Toro took to Twitter today to state Pacific Rim 2 is still being worked on.

“[Pacific] Rim 2 cancelled? Don’t believe everything you read. It’s still going and I’ll remain [with] it in one way or another!” Del Toro tweeted.

Guillermo Del Toro was originally supposed to start production on Pacific Rim 2 following Crimson Peak, but Universal Studios recently removed the movie from their schedule leading to the speculation it wasn’t happening. In addition, Del Toro is said to be in talks to direct the Fantastic Voyage remake, which only added to the thought that Pacific Rim 2 was all but done for.

The good news is not only has Guillermo Del Toro put the rumors to rest, but the Chinese have purchased Legendary Entertainment; Pacific Rim did well in China, so as THR notes, that may mean the sequel is more likely.

Ryan Coogler Directing Black Panther

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23760:]]

It’s finally confirmed that Ryan Coogler will direct Black Panther.

Marvel.com confirmed the news:

“We are fortunate to have such an esteemed filmmaker join the Marvel family,” said producer Kevin Feige.  “The talents Ryan showcased in his first two films easily made him our top choice to direct ‘Black Panther.’  Many fans have waited a long time to see Black Panther in his own film, and with Ryan we know we’ve found the perfect director to bring T’Challa’s story to life.” 
 
Coogler wrote and directed his first award-winning feature film, “Fruitvale Station,” in 2013. Most recently he directed the critically-acclaimed “Creed,” which earned Sylvester Stallone a Golden Globe for Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role in a Motion Picture.
 
Black Panther has been an important character in the Marvel universe for 50 years. He is the king of the technologically-advanced nation of Wakanda, and Panther has served as a member of the Avengers in addition to his many solo adventures. 

Black Panther stars Chadwick Boseman who will debut in Captain America: Civil War May 6th.

Black Panther has a February 16, 2018 release.

Star Wars: Episode VIII Is Darker Says John Boyega

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23746:]]

Star Wars: The Force Awakens was a knock off of New Hope, and now it seems Episode VIII will stick with the pattern – similar to Empire Strikes Back –  as it’s learned the next new Star Wars film will be darker.

Vogue caught up with John Boyega, who plays Finn.

We should say “spoiler alert” before this question, but is it a relief to finally be able to talk more openly about Star Wars: The Force Awakens – you’ve had months of interviews where you’ve had to be very secretive? Did you even tell your friends and family what happens?

“Yes, at last! Han Solo dies, OK? He dies. Phew. It feels good. But now, we just starting work on Star Wars VIII, the next film, so I’m back to keeping secrets again.”

Your co-star Daisy Ridley has already praised how good the script is.

“It’s great. Much darker, but we’re very excited.”

Star Wars: Episode VIII has a May 26, 2017 release directed by Rian Johnson.

Synopsis:

The sequel to the worldwide smash hit “Olympus Has Fallen,” a non-stop, suspenseful action thriller that delivers high-octane excitement through a heightened sense of authenticity. The visceral intensity springs from a timely premise: after the British Prime Minister passes away, his funeral becomes a target of a terrorist organization to destroy some of the world’s most powerful leaders, devastate the British capital, and unleash a terrifying vision of the future. The only hope of stopping it rests on the shoulders of the President of the United States (Aaron Eckhart) and his formidable Secret Service head (Gerard Butler), and an English MI-6 agent (Charlotte Riley) who rightly trusts no one. Morgan Freeman also stars as the Vice President of the United States.

Watch: Is Jennifer Lawrence Rude To A Foreign Reporter At The Golden Globes?

Is Jennifer Lawrence a tad bit crabby tonight?

Check out video below featuring Jennifer Lawrence calling out reporter for reading from his phone tonight at the Golden Globes.

Jennifer Lawrence won tonight for the Best Actress In A Motion Picture, Musical or Comedy for Joy.
