Amazing Spider-Man 3 May Have Featured Zombie Captain Stacy?

With Marvel and Sony rebooting Spider-Man, Denis Leary reveals potential details for what could have been for Amazing Spider-Man 3, which sounds like something more out of The Walking Dead.

Leary tells IGN that Spider-Man would have created some kind of formula that brought people back from the dead.

Possibly in 3, there was this idea at one point that Spider-Man would be able to take this formula and regenerate the people in his life that had died. So, there was this discussion that Captain Stacy would come back even bigger in episode 3.

While it could be zombies, possibly the story may have connected to Morbius the Living Vampire in some way?

Marc Webb also recently commented on the Spider-Man reboot offering he would have liked to use The Gentleman and Venom.

Tom Holland will be the new Marvel Spider-Man speculated to first appear in Captain America: Civil War next May, and the Spider-Man reboot follows in 2017 directed by Jon Watts.

Green Lantern Reboot Titled Green Lantern Corps

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21336:]]

Update: Concept art and leaked footage has hit the net.

WB revealed at Comic-Con that the title of the new Green Lantern movie will be “Green Lantern Corps.”

At their big Hall H presentation earlier today in Hall H, Warner Bros. played a video on the big screens surrounding the audience that featured their upcoming slate of movies with Green Lantern Corps among them.

The video also featured various concept art and logos for the films which included:

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice

Suicide Squad

• Wonder Woman

Justice League 1 & 2

• The Flash

Aquaman

Cyborg

• Green Lantern Corps

Previous rumors mentioned that WB was looking at using multiple Green Lanterns for the reboot, which this reveal looks to have confirmed.

The Green Lantern Corps movie has a 2020 release date, but most likely we’ll get a first look at the GLC in the Justice League movie (it would be pretty awesome if the GLC was involved in some sort of war which would explain their absence during Man of Steel).

Pacific Rim 2 Starts Filming This Fall

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21325:]]

It’s learned Pacific Rim 2 starts filming this Fall.

Yahoo caught up with director Guillermo del Toro who let it be known shooting begins in November.

Plot details aren’t specific, but it’s said Pacific Rim 2 picks up a few years following the first one, with the report mentioning it will have a sharper focus on the monstrous kaiju.

Guillermo Del Toro confirmed a huge end scene for the movie, and that they are in the middle of designing the new robots and kaiju for the sequel.

“We have an epic battle at the end [that] we started designing a couple weeks ago,” Guillermo Del Toro said.

“It’s a few years after the first one,” Del Toro stated in a previous interview. “It’s not an immediate follow-up.  It is the world having been freed of Kaiju, what happens to the world after – what happens to the Jaeger technology once the Kaiju are not a threat.  It’s quite a jump.”

It’s also said it’s unknown whether Charlie Hunnam will be back as Jaeger pilot Raleigh Becket, but with filming to start soon, expect casting announcements to be made in the coming months.

Pacific Rim 2 has an August 4, 2017 release date.

Fox Cancels Fantastic Four 3D Conversion

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21324:]]

It’s learned that Fox has cancelled plans to convert Fantastic Four to 3D.

Following early promotions that listed RealD 3D on the footage, it’s now been confirmed by Josh Trank that Fantastic Four will only be in 2D.

I want the viewing experience of Fantastic Four to remain as pure as possible for the audience, which means in 2D, just as we shot the movie.” 

As the UK’s Final Reel notes, there was actually an earlier rumor that Fox scrapped plans to convert Fantastic Four into 3D because of budget restraints that saw the money used for reshoots, with it also rumored that Simon Kinberg filmed the re-shoots due to problems with Trank while filming FF.

“Fantastic Four” has an August 7, 2015 release directed by Josh Trank from a screenplay by Jeremy Slater, Simon Kinberg and Josh Trank; produced by Matthew Vaughn, Simon Kinberg, Hutch Parker, Robert Kulzar and Gregory Goodman; starring: Miles Teller, Michael B. Jordan, Kate Mara, Jamie Bell and Toby Kebbell.

Synopsis:

FANTASTIC FOUR, a contemporary re-imagining of Marvel’s original and longest-running superhero team, centers on four young outsiders who teleport to an alternate and dangerous universe, which alters their physical form in shocking ways. Their lives irrevocably upended, the team must learn to harness their daunting new abilities and work together to save Earth from a former friend turned enemy.

“You know, I got to arrest Han Solo in a movie once,” Holloway said, referencing 2013’s Paranoia. “I grabbed him, pulled his hands behind his back, cuffed him. He turned around and said to me, ‘You’re losing it, boy.’ Then I stuffed him in a car. But that might be as close as I get to Han Solo.”

There is good news for fans of the King of the Monsters that may have been a bit disappointed with Godzilla‘s screentime in last year’s movie, and that is Godzilla will be featured more in the sequel.

Dread Central caught up with Legendary’s Barnaby Legg, creator of the Godzilla Encounter exhibit, who offered the following:

“Oh, don’t worry. We know. All I can say is stay tuned! You’re going to get exactly what you’re hoping for.”

Fans had issues with Godzilla in that, for one, Godzilla didn’t really show up until about an hour into the movie, and there is also the fact that all of Godzilla’s screentime made up about 8-11 minutes worth of footage.

The Godzilla sequel has a June 8, 2018 with Gareth Edwards set to return to direct and a script by Max Borenstein.
