No Chance For Hulk or Captain Marvel In Guardians of the Galaxy 2 Says James Gunn

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21993:]]

Over a year ago saw it rumored that at the end of The Avengers 2, the Hulk would be stuck in a pre-programmed Quinjet jettisoning the Green Goliath off to space where the Hulk would meet up with the Guardians in Guardians of the Galaxy 2.

Gunn previously shot down the Hulk Guardians of the Galaxy 2 rumor, and now seeing how it’s learned the Hulk’s story will not be told in Captain America: Civil War, speculation has again started up that the Hulk would be appearing in Gunn’s sequel.

However, Gunn once again shoots down any notion of the Hulk appearing.

“I will comment on it now (as I’ve done before) – there is zero chance you will see Hulk in GotGVol2,” Gunn offered on Twitter.

Gunn continued with mention that Captain Marvel won’t be featured in Guardians of the Galaxy 2 as well.

“For the time being, it’s important to me that Quill is the sole human (earthling) character,” Gunn replied to questioning about Captain Marvel making her MCU debut in Guardians of the Galaxy 2.

Gunn also offered he doesn’t want a lot of new characters in GoTG2 because he would like to focus on the characters already from the first movie.

“Not too many, that’s for sure!” Gunn responded in regards to how many new characters he would like to take on in Guardians 2. “I want all of our characters to get MORE personal time than they did in the 1st film.”

Regarding Gunn’s statement about Star-Lord being the sole human, which he has stated before, the line of reasoning stirs contention amongst the Cosmic fans as many Marvel Cosmic fans want to see Richard Rider Nova a part of the Guardians movies (Gunn cut Nova from an earlier script), and Star-Lord could easily be argued as not being a relatable human as, for one, he’s half alien, and secondly, in Gunn’s movie, Star-Lord was abducted at a young age and grew up in space. Hopefully a different director will want to tackle Richard Rider Nova’s story at some point.

“Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2” has a May 5, 2017 release.

WB Dates New Christopher Nolan Movie For Summer 2017

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21990:]]

Warner Bros. has announced a new untitled Christopher Nolan movie for a Summer 2017 release date.

WB will have full worldwide distribution rights for the untitled project, which has been given a July 21, 2017 release date.

Nolan’s previous project with WB was with Interstellar, but Paramount shared in the distribution rights.

No details are known about the new Christopher Nolan movie as the director’s projects are often shrouded in secrecy, but it’s probably safe to say it will be a large scale production on par with Interstellar and the Batman movies.

Regarding Nolan doing another DC movie, Wonder Woman actually comes out a month prior, so more than likely it won’t be another DC flick.

Marvel and Sony do have the new Spider-Man reboot coming out a week later, on July 28, 2017, so it will be an interesting showdown against Nolan.

Christopher Nolan’s latest project is the short film about the Quay brothers.

The film is playing in the UK and select theaters and film festivals.

Synopsis:

A teenage virgin is possessed by a ghost, an evil spirit inhabits the body of a young boy, and Santa murders elves: it must be a Christmas Horror Story!

Myths of all sorts come to life is this festive take on anthology horror by the directors of the cult horror classic GINGER SNAPS films. 

We’re introduced to the cast of victims and villains on Christmas Eve. When one family accidentally unleashes an evil spirit while visiting an estranged aunt, frightful things begin happening across the small town of Bailey Downs.

A group of teenagers are unable to escape the abandoned school they are exploring and must deal with an angry ghost who has possessed the virgin in the group; a couple deals with the consequences of cutting down a Christmas tree in the woods when it becomes clear that their child has been possessed by a demon; and a long-haired Santa must use an ax to fight off his elves who have suddenly become flesh-eating living dead.  

With eggnog and a bottle of hard liquor in hand, William Shatner takes over the airwaves of the town (think radio personality Grant Mazzy in Bruce McDonald’s 2008 psychological thriller PONTYPOOL), weaving the events of the evening together until we reach the terrifying conclusion.

Now Kevin Feige Blamed For Avengers 2 Failure

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21972:]]

Shots are now fired from both sides and a true Civil War has erupted within Marvel.

Earlier saw news of the split between Marvel Studios and Marvel CEO billionaire extraordinaire and the Marvel Comics Creative Committee.

Kevin Feige has taken the movie branch under his wing, and left Marvel TV and publishing (Comics) under Perlmutter.

Many reports have been hitting the net from a variety of sites lying blame with Perlmutter and the MCC, which consists of Joe Quesda, Brian Bendis, Alan Fine and Dan Buckley.

A couple of the reports suggested Feige had enough with Perlmutter’s frugality and the MCC’s slow process, with it mentioned both the “failure” of Avengers: Age Of Ultron and creative development on Captain America: Civil War were to blame and reasons used by Feige to leverage Marvel Studios away from Perlmutter.

Regarding The Avengers 2, the same site that first reported on Feige using the failure of Avengers 2 as leverage, is now stating sources close to Marvel have filled them in the blame actually lies with Feige.

According to Bleeding Cool, they heard rumors a while back that the “extensive and expensive re-shoots on the movie could have been avoided if Feige had been receptive to notes” — with the notes of course coming from Perlmutter’s Marvel Creative Committee.

The report goes on to suggest Feige’s people have been using various sites to finger-point, i.e. provide spin, that makes it look as if Feige is in the right and Perlmutter is in the wrong.

It’s also suggested Feige surrounds himself by “yes-men” as a former employee in Marvel’s film division is said to have offered: “if you want a target on your back, just say no to Kevin.”

Chris Evans Confirms Avengers 3 & 4; Wants To Extend Marvel Contract (Video)

With Ike Perlmutter out of the way, it’s possible the original cast of the Avengers could be on board with Marvel Studios for the long haul.

The Collider caught up with Chris Evans in the above video, with Evans confirming he has only two movies left on his Marvel contract, which are The Avengers Infinity Part 1 and Part 2 movies.

Evans has said at various times he might want to be done with acting and just focus on directing, but at the same time has stated he may want to stick with Marvel. Now Evans says “if Marvel wants me, they got me.”

“I’ve never had such a relationship where… I mean look at my resume. I’m used to being on set being ‘is this movie going to be terrible?’ [laughs] It’s Marvel… They can’t stop making great movies. They just do it in their sleep. It’s wonderful directors and producers, and actors and scripts, and it’s like a playground as an actor. It’s so mind boggling that I was tentative in the beginning to jump on board. What an asshole I would be if I hadn’t done this. I mean, can you imagine? I’m kicking myself. I would never forgive myself… I mean it’s just the best.”
