Tom Holland Says They Tried To Make Miles Morales Spider-Man

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23199:]]

In a recent interview while promoting his latest film, In The Heart of the Sea (which stars Chris Hemsworth), Tom Holland talks about auditioning and getting cast for Spider-Man.

Interestingly enough, according to Holland, either Sony or Marvel (or the Marvel Creative Committee that Feige canned) was attempting to make Miles Morales as Spider-Man. Holland filled the Daily Beast in on the info:

“I know they’re trying to make Miles Morales, but let me try and send a self-tape.” The agent replied, “Actually, they’ve requested you to send a self-tape.” 

Holland goes on to tell the story of how he worked on self-tapes with both Joel Kinnaman and Jon Bernthal (who was recently cast as the Punisher in Marvel’s Daredevil Netflix series).

“I went on to my next movie, Pilgrimage, and by that point I’d done two self-tapes, and they asked me to do another self-tape,” he says. “So I did a second set of sides and this time I had Jon Bernthal helping me out, which was great. I had to do those sides twice and my agents kept telling me, ‘This is the one!’ And then they’d ring me saying I have to do another one. I ended up doing five self-tapes in total.”  

Holland continues with mention he participated in two screen tests, one with Robert Downey Jr. and the other with Chris Evans.

“I went to Sarah Finn’s office and did a reading with her, and after that I got asked to screen-test,” says Holland. “I did two—one with RDJ, Robert Downey Jr., who was amazing. I couldn’t have asked for a cooler guy. And the second test was with Chris Evans, and it was pretty awesome and kind of surreal for me.”

Holland also reiterates that the standalone Spider-Man film will be similar in tone to a John Hughes movie (Mr. Mom, Sixteen Candles, Weird Science, Home Alone, Breakfast Club, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off) and not like the Christopher Nolan Batman movies.

“It’s not The Dark Knight,” he says. “One of the special things about what we’re going to try and create is that you’re going to see the biggest independent film ever. It’s not going to be an epic thing; it’s going to be a film surrounded by these incredible things, but that follows this boy and his life. Peter Parker is a favorite of many because everyone can relate to him, and we’re going to try to make everyone relate to our Peter Parker. And John Hughes is a perfect example of what we’re going to try and do.”

Tom Holland is first set to appear in Captain America: Civil War in May followed by the standalone Sony Spider-Man movie in 2017.

Mark Hamill To Host EPSN Star Wars Documentary

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23192:]]

While we have yet to see Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the actor can be seen hosting a Star Wars documentary on ESPN.

Examining the sport and athleticism behind the choreography and training utilized in the making of Star Wars lightsaber duels, Star Wars: Evolution of the Lightsaber Duel, hosted by Mark Hamill, will air Tuesday, Dec. 15, at 7 p.m. ET on ESPN. The documentary will precede the Friday, Dec. 18, launch of Star Wars: The Force Awakens in U.S. theaters.

Check out the trailer below.

“Lightsaber duels from the Star Wars films are some of cinema’s most recognized battles and an iconic part of the most popular movie franchise of all time,” said Craig Lazarus, ESPN vice president, SportsCenter & News, Storytelling Units.

“We will take viewers on a unique journey that examines the connection of these duels to sports and their evolution, from the original trilogy through the prequels, and now to Star Wars: The Force Awakens,” said Lazarus. “Viewers will see the transition from fencing and samurai swordplay in the original films to an increased focus on martial arts and the sport of kendo.”

For the documentary, ESPN traveled to the 2015 Kendo World Championships in Japan to gather interviews and information to explain the genesis of kendo and how it applies to Star Wars lightsaber duels.

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23193:]]

Hamill, who reprises his role of Luke Skywalker in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, lived in Japan for his last two years of high school and is very familiar with kendo.

“I really feel that kendo has informed so much of what we have done in the films it is about time that it gets some long-overdue recognition,” Hamill said.

What people don’t realize is how much goes into what appears to be just minutes on the screen,” Hamill said. “The elaborate choreography for the actual fight is done on several different sets over a period of weeks and then it is edited down to what you see on the screens, so I am happy people are able to see the amount of work that goes into it.”

The program also will include behind-the-scenes video of actor John Boyega, who plays Finn in the new film, as he trains for a lightsaber battle scene. Boyega is interviewed for the program as is his kendo trainer, Paul Vincent.

SC Featured also traveled to England to interview actor Ian McDiarmid, who portrayed Emperor Palpatine in previous Star Wars films and Nick Gillard, kendo expert and former Star Wars stunt man and choreographer.

New interviews with film director/producer J.J. Abrams and Jonathan W. Rinzler, Lucasfilm historian, are also part of the documentary along with rare, behind-the-scenes footage from the Lucasfilm archive.

On Oct. 19, the trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens debuted during halftime of ESPN’s Monday Night Football game between the New York Giants and Philadelphia Eagles, with tickets for the movie going on sale immediately afterward.

“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.

Mark Hamill Teases Where Is Luke Skywalker?

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23188:]]

Where the heck is Luke Skywalker?

Luke has been noticeably absent from all teasers, trailers, promos and even merchandise.

As we get closer to the premiere of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the only tidbit from Mark Hamill and Luke Skywalker has been two cast images (pictured above) and a voice-over in a teaser. While an image of Luke Skywalker may have leaked online, we still don’t have a clue about anything in regards to the character.

While we here at Cosmic Book News actually think it’s a good thing (we’re not posting spoilers until the movie debuts), mainstream newspapers and even Mark Hamill himself have taken notice to the lack of attention — or maybe it should be said the lack of “promotion.”

Hamill posted the following image on Facebook of himself peeking behind a newspaper where the headline reads: “Where is Luke?”

An image has also been making its rounds on social media of a “Missing” Luke Skywalker as well (see below).

Obviously we’ll all discover what becomes of Luke on December 18th when the movie opens, and we are also guessing Disney will be amping up a second wave of promotion and merchandise following the movie’s debut with Luke Skywaker and more of the original cast as well.

Batman Vs. Superman Trailer Scores On Twitter

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23172:]]

While Captain America: Civil War crushed Batman Vs. Superman in terms of overall trailer viewings in its first 24 hours, the recent Dawn of Justice trailer took home the title for most talk on Twitter.

It’s reported that the Batman Vs. Superman trailer was tweeted even more than the Captain America: Civil War trailer in its first week and is #5 overall for the year.

While the Captain America: Civil War trailer shattered the world record with 61 million views in its first 24 hours to Batman Vs. Superman‘s 23 million (accounting for YouTube, Facebook, Twitter viewings, etc.), Batman Vs. Superman quite possibly may have surpassed Civil War in total as a quick look at various accounts on YouTube and Facebook seems to suggest BVS is now in the lead.

Numbers to date for both trailer viewings have yet to be released, but on WB’s YouTube channel, Batman Vs. Superman netted around 16.5 million views to Civil War‘s 8 million on Marvel’s YouTube. Likewise, on Facebook, Batman Vs. Superman is at 15 million views to Civil War‘s 5.3 million.

Sounds Like Iron Spider Armor For Spider-Man in Captain America: Civil War

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23166:]]

It’s already been confirmed that Tom Holland will be seen in the classic red and blue Spider-Man costume in Captain America: Civil War, but now it looks like Holland may be sporting more than one Spidey costume.

Captain America: Civil War co-director Anthony Russo was asked about the rumor of multiple Spider-Man costumes in an interview and hinted at more than one costume (via Super Interssante):

SUPER: There are many rumors are talking about two, three uniforms in the film. What can you talk about it?

Anthony Russo: Well, we did a lot of research and experimented with the looks of each character. We went through the same process with Spider-Man. We knew it was going to be someone young and it was very important to us because we wanted to give this essence to the character, because he is someone unique to the Marvel Universe. Tom Holland is an amazing Spider-Man, people will love him. It was a very experimental process, placing him with the other actors, especially with Downey Jr., we had to learn as we worked. And we’re very happy with the final result.

Russo continues with mention of what looks to be a big hint that Tom Holland may wear the Iron Spider Armor costume that was used in the Civil War Marvel Comics comic book event as Russo says a costume that will be used will be produced by special effects.

 We’re still working on a few things, like the costume. He’s not ready yet because so much will be produced with special effects.

Anthony Russo is directly asked about the Iron Spider Armor, but only seemingly teases its existence in the film.

SUPER: Will the film show the red-and-gold costume that was made ​​famous in the Civil War comic?

AR: The film will show a mix of what everyone is waiting for with a little twist. So yeah, that’s all I can say.

With the use of numerous Spider-Man costumes in Captain America: Civil War, we can probably also safely speculate that Spider-Man may have a bigger role in the movie than the previously thought cameo.

Following Captain America: Civil War, Tom Holland will be featured in the standalone Spider-Man movie in 2017.

“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.

Watch: Trailer For Steven Spielberg’s “The BFG”

Watch the trailer above for Disney and Steven Spielberg’s new movie, The BGF.

The film is in theaters July 1st 2016 and stars Rebecca Hall, Mark Rylance, Bill Hader, Jemaine Clement, Penelope Wilton, Adam Godley, Ólafur Darri Ólafsson, John Emmet Tracy, Ruby Barnhill, Michael Adamthwaite and Marilyn Norry.

Synopsis:

The talents of three of the world’s greatest storytellers – Roald Dahl, Walt Disney and Steven Spielberg –
finally unite to bring Dahl’s beloved classic “The BFG” to life. Directed by Spielberg, Disney’s “The BFG” tells the imaginative story of a young girl and the Giant who introduces her to the wonders and perils of Giant Country. The BFG (Mark Rylance), while a giant himself, is a Big Friendly Giant and nothing like the other inhabitants of Giant Country. Standing 24-feet tall with enormous ears and a keen sense of smell, he is endearingly dim-witted and keeps to himself for the most part. Giants like Bloodbottler (Bill Hader) and Fleshlumpeater (Jemaine Clement) on the other hand, are twice as big and at least twice as scary and have been known to eat humans, while the BFG prefers Snozzcumber and Frobscottle. Upon her arrival in Giant Country, Sophie, a precocious 10-year-old girl from London, is initially frightened of the mysterious giant who has brought her to his cave, but soon comes to realize that the BFG is actually quite gentle and charming, and, having never met a giant before, has many questions. The BFG brings Sophie to Dream Country where he collects dreams and sends them to children, teaching her all about the magic and mystery of dreams. Having both been on their own in the world up until now, their affection for one another quickly grows, but Sophie’s presence in Giant Country has attracted the unwanted attention of the other giants, who have become increasingly more bothersome. Sophie and the BFG soon depart for London to see the Queen (Penelope Wilton) and warn her of the precarious giant situation, but they must first convince the Queen and her maid, Mary (Rebecca Hall), that giants do indeed exist. Together, they come up with a plan to get rid of the giants once and for all.
