New Spider-Man To Possibly Be Named Next Week

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:20988:]]Pictured Left: Tom Holland
 

The latest regarding the new Spider-Man is more speculation and rumor, with it now said the new Spider-Man may possibly be named next week.

Deadline calls attention to the recent rumor that Spider-Man is down to two to four actors, with Asa Butterfield apparently out of contention.

While the report doesn’t confirm or deny the rumor, they do state the decision for the new Spider-Man may come next week.

It’s also stated the new Spider-Man used in Captain America: Civil War will be similar to the Marvel Comics storyline in that Spider-Man may be a swing vote when it comes down to super hero registration (or whatever “super hero registration” movie equivalent Marvel goes with). 

The wallcrawler plays a key role in the 2006-2007 Marvel Comics storyline on which the film is based. That story put Iron Man and Captain America on opposite sides of the law, with Tony Stark the public face of a government effort to force superheroes to register with the government, enacted in the wake of outrage over a devastating battle between heroes and villains that left behind numerous civilian casualties. Citing concerns about liberty and freedom, Captain America goes underground and becomes the leader of those heroes who refuse to register. Spider-Man serves as what amounts to the swing vote on the question. At first publicly unmasking himself, as the government becomes more heavily focused on rounding up fugitive heroes, Spidey switches sides. Captain America: Civil War will hit similar beats, and supposedly, Spider-Man is intended to play a role similar to that of the comics, which means Marvel needs him, and quick.

Deadline also repeats the rumor that Marvel and Sony are at a casting standstill over the choice of the Spider-Man actor, though their own report instead mentions Marvel and Sony are “very carefully deliberating over who will play Peter Parker in the Marvel Cinematic Universe for the foreseeable future.”

Regarding Asa Butterfield, Deadline says he is “now apparently out of contention.”

The four actors said to be up to play the new Spider-Man are: Tom Holland, Charlie Rowe, Matthew Lintz and Charlie Plummer.

It’s noted Tom Holland is currently in Atlanta (where Captain America: Civil War is filming) for a golf outing.

Watch: The Stanford Prison Experiment Trailer; Stars Ezra Miller

Check out new Flash Ezra Miller in action in the trailer for the indie film The Stanford Prison Experiment.

Ezra Miller is WB’s Flash of choice for their DC cinematic universe, with The Flash movie due out in 2018.

The Stanford Prison Experiment has a July 17, 2015 release directed by Kyle Patrick Alvarez also starring Olivia Thirlby, Jesse Carere, Billy Crudup, Thomas Mann, Keir Gilchrist, Michael Angarano and Ki Hong Lee.

Synopsis:

In this tense, psychological thriller based on the notorious true story, Billy Crudup stars as Stanford University professor Dr. Philip Zimbardo, who, in 1971, cast 24 student volunteers as prisoners and guards in a simulated jail to examine the source of abusive behavior in the prison system. The results astonished the world, as participants went from middle-class undergrads to drunk-with-power sadists and submissive victims in just a few days. Winner of two awards at the Sundance Film Festival, including Best Screenplay, and created with the close participation of Dr. Zimbardo himself, “The Stanford Prison Experiment” features an extraordinary cast of rising young actors, including Ezra Miller, Olivia Thirlby, Tye Sheridan, Keir Gilchrist, Michael Angarano, and Thomas Mann.

Watch: Chris Pratt Talks “Dance Off Bro” With Conan

The beginning and the end of the Guardians of the Galaxy movie saw Chris Pratt’s Star-Lord dancing.

Honestly, when Star-Lord asked Ronan to do a dance off at the end, I dropped a WTF-bomb.

I was laughing, though.

Now check out Pratt talking with Conan O’Brien about “Dance Off Bro” above as Pratt recently appeared on Conan to promote Jurassic World.

Pratt also recollects a dance competition he did with his brother to C&C Music Factory’s “Everybody Dance Now.”

Jurassic World is currently in theaters, and Pratt might be dancing again come May 5, 2017 with Guardians of the Galaxy 2.

Maybe ballet this time, James?

Watch: Zootopia Trailer

Check out the trailer above for Zootopia, the next animated movie from Disney.

Zootopia has a March 4, 2016 release featuring the voice talents of Jason Bateman and Ginnifer Goodwin.

Synopsis:

Like nothing you’ve seen be-fur… Zootopia. The modern mammal metropolis of Zootopia is a city like no other. Comprised of habitat neighborhoods like ritzy Sahara Square and frigid Tundratown, it’s a melting pot where animals from every environment live together—a place where no matter what you are, from the biggest elephant to the smallest shrew, you can be anything. But when optimistic Officer Judy Hopps arrives, she discovers that being the first bunny on a police force of big, tough animals isn’t so easy. Determined to prove herself, she jumps at the opportunity to crack a case, even if it means partnering with a fast-talking, scam-artist fox, Nick Wilde, to solve the mystery. Walt Disney Animation Studios’ “Zootopia,” a comedy-adventure directed by Byron Howard (“Tangled,” “Bolt”) and Rich Moore (“Wreck-It Ralph,” “The Simpsons”) and co-directed by Jared Bush (“Penn Zero: Part-Time Hero”), opens in theaters on March 4, 2016.

Asa Butterfield Said To Be No Longer In Contention For Spider-Man

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:20967:]]

It’s now being reported that Asa Butterfield is no longer being considered for Spider-Man.

Apparently the info is coming from a reporter from The Wrap that was the same one to state he was 95% certain the new Spider-Man would be non-white.

However, every actor said to be up for the role by the Hollywood trade sites (and The Wrap) is white.

It’s said the list of actors to play the new Spider-Man is now down to Tom Holland, Charlie Plummer and Matthew Lintz — with Marvel wanting Plummer while Sony favors Holland, leading to a casting standstill.

It’s also said that Asa Butterfield went on Reddit and made comments replying to fans about his potential casting, which may be a reason why Marvel let him go.

If I had to guess, I would say that Marvel already has their Spider-Man, and that they have had the actor for a while (à la Benedict Cumberbatch or Chris Pratt). 

The new Peter Parker/Spider-Man is thought to be first appearing in Captain America: Civil War and is said to be wanted on set in July.

Really, nothing has been confirmed by Marvel other than the new Spider-Man will be Peter Parker in high school.

Walking Dead’s Chandler Riggs Not Playing New Spider-Man

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:20965:]]

With Marvel searching for a new Spider-Man, it’s been said they tested a bunch of young actors for the part.

One of those actors looks to be Chandler Riggs, known for playing Carl on The Walking Dead.

Riggs tweeted out the following a couple of hours ago stating good luck to whoever lands the Spider-Man role, which seems to insinuate he tried out for the new Spider-Man, but didn’t get the part.

Riggs also uses the Captain America: Civil War hashtag, which may mean he has insider knowledge that while trying out for the Spider-Man role, he was told it is for Captain America 3.

According to the Hollywood trade sites, Marvel is close to choosing their new Spider-Man with Tom Holland, Asa Butterfield, Judah Lewis, Matthew Lintz, Charlie Rowe and Charlie Plummer said to be the top contenders.

A new Spider-Man solo movie is also being planned for 2017.

Watch: Mark Ruffalo Talks Hulk Vs. Superman With Jon Stewart

Who wins between the Hulk vs. Superman?

That’s a battle long been argued over by comic fans, and a battle that has taken place a few times in the comics with Superman winning the majority.

Now Mark Ruffalo weighs in as the actor recently appeared on Jon Stewart.

In the above video around the 2:30 mark, Stewart asks Ruffalo about Hulk vs. Superman and makes a point that the Man of Steel can fly.

Ruffalo doesn’t seem to impressed as he responds, “Okay,” and mentions if the high-jump was the determining factor then Superman would win.

While unfortunately the two don’t really get into it as Ruffalo is there to promote his latest indie movie, you can check out the Hulk vs. Superman outcome from the comics:

Mark Ruffalo & Robert Downey Jr. Tease Hulk For Captain America: Civil War

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:20963:]]

The big question following The Avengers: Age Of Ultron is where did Banner and the Hulk go off to?

But perhaps the bigger question is will the Hulk appear in Captain America: Civil War?

As of right now, the Hulk is the only Avenger that has yet to make a confirmed appearance in another Marvel movie.

No Hulk solo movie is being planned as there is a rights issue over the character having standalone movies with Universal Studios.

Now we hear from Mark Ruffalo who offers hope that the Hulk might be featured in Captain America: Civil War.

While Ruffalo spoke to the Daily Beast stating he still doesn’t know if the Hulk will make an appearance:

“I don’t know! I heard a rumor about that the other day. I haven’t seen a script, nobody’s told me, and I don’t have dates. But I can only hope so!”

Ruffalo does go on to say that Robert Downey Jr. teased the following:

“I was talking to Robert Downey the other day, and he said, ‘Ruffalo! I heard you’re coming out here,’ and I said, ‘OK! I’ll be there,’” said Ruffalo, with a chuckle.

If indeed Ruffalo hasn’t read a script, it doesn’t necessarlily mean the Hulk won’t show up in Captain America: Civil War as the appearance could be small (such as at the end of the film), and it’s possible that Ruffalo might not be appearing as Banner, but the Hulk would be CGI.

Another rumor/fan-speculation going around the net is that the Hulk will appear – as the Red Hulk. Fans of the Marvel comics know that General Thunderbolt Ross is the Red Hulk; William Hurt returns to reprise Ross for Captain America: Civil War.

Another intersting tidbit is the following tweet Ruffalo posted last month:

“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:

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.

Chris Pratt Talks Star-Lord Vs. Captain America

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:20949:]]

Chris Pratt plays Star-Lord, a member of Marvel’s cosmic team of the Guardians of the Galaxy.

Chris Evans plays Captain America, the goody two-shoes of Earth’s Mightiest Avengers.

Earlier this year saw the two duke it out on Twitter over the Super Bowl, where Captain America’s Patriots were victorious.

Now while promoting Jurassic World, Chris Pratt is asked by CBR who would win between Star-Lord and Captain America.

Oh, man. Hopefully, you’ll find out one day. Steve Rogers would kick the shit out of Peter Quill in a fair fight, but I don’t think Quill and the Guardians fight fair. I would put my money on Quill. If it was a straight UFC match, Captain America wins 100 out of 100 times. But, when you have Rocket Raccoon, who has your back, and he can take apart an air conditioner and turn it into a nuclear weapon, you have an ace in the hole.

It’s possible we actually may one day get to see that fight between Star-Lord and Captain America on the big screen as Thanos comes into play in the two part The Avengers: Infinity War movies, which may feature the Guardians of the Galaxy. Perhaps Marvel Cosmic and Marvel street-level won’t get along right away before they combine forces to take on the Mad Titan.

Dave Bautista, who plays Drax, also previously stated that Drax could beat up the Hulk and Thor, and Zoe Saldana, who plays Gamora, said the Guardians could kick the Avengers ass as well.

So, fanboys, who wins? Guardians? Or The Avengers?
