Jesse Eisenberg Talks Going Bald For Batman Vs. Superman (Video)

Check out video above with new Lex Luthor Jesse Eisenberg talking playing the character in Batman Vs. Superman.

Eisenberg recently appeared on Late Night With Seth Meyers where the two first discussed SNL and Mark Zuckerberg.

Meyers then mentions Jesse Eisenberg is playing Lex Luthor in Batman vs. Superman to the delight of the crowd, with Meyers revealing the first look image at Eisenberg as Luthor.

Eisenberg confirms he did shave his head, and that it wasn’t CGI, as well as goes on to discuss the experience.

“I actually came out of the womb with a full head of hair. I’ve never been able to touch my scalp. Yes it’s freezing. It’s really strange. You know, it’s the kind of mixed thing where you feel like ‘I can really damage myself.’ You want to wear a helmet. It’s terrifying, it’s terrifying.”

Meyers then pulls out a set image of Eisenberg wearing a bandana to hide his bald head from the paparazzi, with Meyers comparing the look to ET in the basket.

“You’d think there would be something more threatening than the floral arrangement,” Eisenberg responded. “Everything is shrouded in secrecy, and the people are shrouded in bandannas. You know, Superman, this is Henry Cavill, he’ll walk the set in baggy sweatpants.”

James Gunn Says Chris Pratt Indiana Jones Rumor Seems Like BS

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19293:]]

James Gunn recently participated in a QnA where he discussed Guardians of the Galaxy 2, Spider-Man, X-Men and more.

Gunn also commented on the rumor that Chris Pratt will be the new Indiana Jones.

According to Variety, Gunn said that Chris Pratt playing Indiana Jones would be cool, but the report mentions Gunn goes on to say that the rumor “seemed like complete bullshit.”

The report goes on to speculate that since James Gunn had been hanging out with Chris Pratt recently, it’s possible Gunn got the information straight from Pratt.

So from that info, we can gather either Pratt never was in the running for the new Indiana Jones or that Pratt didn’t get the job.

Of course, it could also just be Gunn’s opinion on the rumor as well.

The latest rumor stated Steven Spielberg wanted Chris Pratt for Indiana Jones.

The Avengers 2 Character Descriptions Reveal New Details

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19913:]]

In addition to the fun facts, a batch of Avengers 2 character descriptions have been released revealing new details.

Tony Stark/Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.). Brash but brilliant billionaire Tony Stark returns, still struggling with the emotional fallout from the Battle of New York that took place in “The Avengers.” Tony is now bankrolling his Super Hero dream-team in an ongoing effort to protect the world from the evil forces that he knows are out there. Stark carries the weight of the world on his shoulders, which leads him to team up with Bruce Banner to create Ultron as the ultimate peacekeeping program.

Bruce Banner/The Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) is back and ready to be unleashed as The Avengers’ not-so-secret weapon. He has embraced the Hulk and is now an important part of the team, although surprising protocols have been put in place to make sure Hulk doesn’t ever get out of hand in a conflict. Banner worked alongside Tony Stark to develop the Ultron program as a peacekeeping initiative.

Steve Rogers/Captain America (Chris Evans) has fully embraced the mantle of team leader, but with the unraveling of S.H.I.E.L.D. in “Captain America: The Winter Soldier,” he continues to reconcile with what he has lost in a world he does not totally recognize. Outmatched and on the run, he must find a way to rally The Avengers and find a way to defeat the terrifying Ultron.

Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) returns to the fray as the deadly and beautiful super-spy turned hero. Her intelligence, resources and lethal fighting ability far outweigh her lack of “super” powers. With the threat of Ultron looming, Natasha will need to confront the demons of her shadowy past and draw strength from her teammates to defeat him.

Thor (Chris Hemsworth). The Asgardian God of Thunder returns as Earth’s sworn protector. More brash and powerful than ever, Thor serves as the moral compass for the team and continues his personal quest to find the identity of his brother’s secret ally while also warning his teammates of threats that are bigger than any of them can imagine.

Clint Barton/Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner). A skilled and accurate archer, Hawkeye is one of the team’s most lethal operatives. After having his mind controlled by Loki in “The Avengers,” Hawkeye returns to the team in fully functional mode, complete with more advanced weaponry.

Pietro Maximoff/Quicksilver (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) has the power of super-speed. He is fiercely protective of his twin sister Wanda and will do anything to defend his war-torn home of Sokovia. Along with his sister, he volunteered for a secret program and gained his speed through Baron Strucker’s experimentation with an unusual power source.

Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch (Elizabeth Olsen) is the beautiful and mysterious twin sister of Pietro. Possessing the powers of mental manipulation and telekinesis, Wanda as Scarlet Witch is able to attack her enemies from the inside out. Along with her brother, she is the product of Baron Strucker’s experiment.

Ultron (James Spader) is a technological super villain the likes of which have never been seen. Unhinged and terrifying, Ultron is born out of a corrupted pilot program that Tony Stark and Bruce Banner created to help usher in peace on Earth. When their programming went haywire, Ultron came to life with the goal to save the planet by eliminating the biggest threat to it—humanity. He will stop at nothing to see this goal realized and promises to kill The Avengers for daring to try to stop him.

Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson), the man that first brought The Avengers together, is now disavowed and living in hiding after the events of “Captain America: The Winter Soldier.” Nevertheless, Fury continues to be an important mentor and leader for our team of heroes.

The Vision (Paul Bettany) is a powerful and mysterious android that is raw, dangerous and uncontrollable.

Ulysses Klaue (Andy Serkis) is a black-market arms dealer, smuggler and gangster operating out of South Africa. He is a former acquaintance of Tony Stark’s from his weapons-dealing days and a powerful new player in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Baron Strucker (Thomas Kretschmann) is a brilliant HYDRA scientist who worked under the cover of S.H.I.E.L.D. for far too long. Human experimentation, advanced robotics and artificial intelligence are just a few of the things Strucker is working on when Wanda and Pietro Maximoff volunteer for his program.

Dr. Helen Cho (Claudia Kim) is a world-renowned geneticist and an ally of The Avengers. From her offices in Seoul, South Korea, to sharing workspace with Bruce Banner in his lab at Avengers Tower, Dr. Cho’s research and technology help keep The Avengers in the fight.

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19910:]]

While chatting about his SundanceTV series The Red Road, Jason Momoa also talks about Aquaman and the Justice League movie.

Fear not fans of The Red Road, Momoa says if a third season is green lit, he will still have time to do it. 

Regarding the Justice League movie, Momoa offers he hasn’t read a script as of yet.

“Justice League is quite a ways off. We don’t have scripts and stuff like that,” Momoa told THR. “I’ll bring my professionalism there. I’ll bring my sense of humor. Hopefully people will like that. If they don’t I’ll modify it.”

Momoa also talks about the big reveal when Zack Snyder released the first image of Jason Momoa as Aquaman.

“Michael [Wilkinson], the head costume designer, he created all of that,” Momoa said. “I basically just showed up and he made it happen. And it’s all Zack, through his genius mind.”

Momoa continues with mention that balancing the smaller TV roles with the larger movies roles is a “dream job.”

“I have a TV show that I love,” Momoa said. “I’m going to be in one of the biggest movies in history in a minute, playing a superhero. And I have kids so that’s cool. My kids can finally see something that I’m in.”

Prior to Justice League in 2017 and Aquaman in 2018, Jason Momoa will be first appearing in Batman Vs. Superman next March as well.

Rob Liefeld Addresses Deadpool Movie & R-Rating

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19902:]]

Ryan Reynolds just announced that Deadpool will be Rated-R in a super cool video.

Now Deadpool creator and comic book writer and artist Rob Liefeld has taken to his Instagram page to offer the following.

Check it out below.

“Deadpool” has a February 12, 2016 release directed by Tim Miller starring Ryan Reynolds, Morena Baccarin, TJ Miller, Ed Skrein and Gina Carano.

Congrats to Team Deadpool on each and every victory along the Deadpool highway! The R rating ensures the film will be unique and faithful to the amazing vision of the filmakers Tim Miller, Rhett Reese, Paul Wernick and Ryan freakin’ Reynolds!! DEADPOOL RANT….So you’re thinking, “of course Liefeld, you brought Deadpool to life, what else are we to expect but you to cheer, homer.” Let’s get something straight, after Wolverine:Origins I went on the apology tour, for those many umpteen thousands of you who came up to me at the bazillion conventions I do and asked me “Hey, Liefeld, what did you think of Deadpool in Wolverine:Origins?” you saw me smile through gritted teeth and give a very deliberate response “Well, it’s a good start..” Because I already knew that there were plans underway to restore Deadpool and that given the opportunity, the new team that Ryan was assembling would produce the film we all wanted. But I knew that I couldn’t apologize twice, I couldn’t smile through gritted teeth any longer, this one would have to be earned. Rhett Rheese and Paul Wernick came on board and wrote the most amazing, exciting, unique comic book script I’d ever read. Even my Marvel pals have confided and said, “Wow, that Deadpool script…That’s spectacular..It should get made” but it didn’t. And years passed and management at Fox passed and executives came and went, each unable to move it forward. During this time, the outstanding Tim Miller stepped into the directors chair to guide the film and from the word go, he started making things happen. I saw storyboards, costume designs and animatics. The vision was becoming a reality and that amazing test reel footage was shot and I thought for certain that the film would be on its way to a green light. Then…more waiting. And here we are, this outstanding vision is being filmed and prepared for a Feb. 12th 2016 release date. I can tell you that you are in for a cinematic comic book experience unlike any you have experienced! Deadpool is all that you’ve been waiting for and a round of applause to Tim, Rhett, Paul, Ryan and Simon Kinberg for seeing it through! #robliefeld#deadpool

Update: Gunn held another QnA where he revealed Guardians of the Galaxy 2 will start filming February 2016 at Pinewood Studios in Atlanta, Georgia.

 

James Gunn recently gave the new Periscope App a test drive where he answered questions regarding Guardians of the Galaxy 2, Marvel and other topics.

Gunn has been busy developing the sequel, in which he previously let it be known Marvel thought his latest approach was “risky.”

Screen Rant caught the QnA and jotted down the following:

Gunn has submitted his treatment for Guardians of the Galaxy 2 to Marvel brass.

He has a follow-up meeting this Friday about the treatment and will begin the actual screenplay in about a week, in which he later added he is about 70 pages into it.

Gunn confirmed that Ronan is dead and that “not everything is going to happen in the movies as same as the comics.”

Gunn said fans will get to know the Guardians in the sequel in a “deeper way.”

Guardians of the Galaxy 2 will be in 3D.

Gunn offered they don’t do motion-capture work for Rocket and Groot, they just reference images at times.

They may have figured a way for Karen Gillan not to shave her head for Nebula.

Regarding the writing process of both movies, Gunn said he plots out the whole story, and then writes it after.

Other tidbits mentioned include:

Gunn has seen and liked Avengers 2; “lept for joy” about Spider-Man joining Marvel; current favorite comics are Silver Surfer, Wolverines and Secret Avengers; “really dug” the Fantastic Four trailer; would never direct an X-Men movie, and his favorite villain is Heath Ledger’s Joker.

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

Guillermo del Toro Still Waiting On WB For Justice League Dark

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19891:]]

Guillermo del Toro’s Justice League Dark film featuring the more supernatural characters of the DC Universe is all set on his end as the director is finished with the script and has handed it in to WB.

Now it’s a waiting game.

Guillermo del Toro attended a press event for his FX series, The Strain, where he offered an update on Justice League Dark to IGN.

“We turned in our [script] revision, and it all depends on the calendar, you know?” del Toro offered earlier today. “If I can do it, I would love to do it. And I think the screenplay and the characters are very solid.”

The report goes on to mention that del Toro stated that if he is unable to direct Justice League Dark due to other commitments and timing, that “somebody will do it.” It’s reported del Toro said it’s not easy to commit to directing considering the amount of time it takes to direct a movie and especially with Justice League Dark being a part of a shared DC movie universe.

“You cannot say, ‘Yeah, I’ll do it after I do this,’ or ‘I have the first season of The Strain,” said del Toro. “[Justice League Dark] needs to fall into the plan of the DC Universe.”

Synopsis:

Our story begins in a dark prison cell with a mysterious man chained to the wall, tired and hungry. He is the only living survivor from an attack on a group of soldiers. The only living witness to the atrocities a demon of the night performed in front of his very eyes.

Entrusted by the church to hunt down the beast that slaughtered their brothers in arms, a group of battle-worn Templar Knights must use this only witness to find and kill the demon that plagues the English countryside. To lead this group is a knight who no longer believes in God or country and has given up on humanity. But will this one last battle help him regain his lust for life and save his fellow brothers as well as himself?

The soldiers are only too aware of the devastation that was brought to their lost comrades and so must turn to others to assist in their quest. A group of battle-hardened, money-driven mercenaries are called upon to join the hunt. Having to not only drag with them a suspicious sole survivor who is an eyewitness but also a pack of untrustworthy mercenaries, a difficult path full of twists and turns lies ahead for the Templar Knights, more so than they first believed.

Ryan Reynolds Confirms Deadpool R-Rating In Video

Yep, you read that right – and it’s not an April Fool’s Day prank – the Deadpool movie will be Rated-R.

Reynolds confirmed the news in the above video with Extra’s Mario Lopez.

Reynolds is currently in Vancouver, his hometown, where he confirmed the news.

“Yeah, he was in Wolverine, but that’s not the character we are putting on screen right now,” Reynolds offered. “Deadpool is definitely a wise-cracker, but I think the most distinct feature is that he is a guy who is morally flexible and has a motormouth. He doesn’t care if people love him or hate him.”

Watch the above video for more (as we don’t want to spoil anything!).

Deadpool” has a February 12, 2016 release directed by Tim Miller starring Ryan Reynolds, Morena Baccarin, TJ Miller and Gina Carano.

Dwayne Johnson Explains Why Black Adam

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19885:]]

With Dwayne Johnson being the People’s Champ, why did the fan-favorite actor go with Black Adam for the DC Shazam movie?

Johnson explains to Digit Spy that Black Adam is a character he loves and has been drawn to for the past ten years.

I felt ultimately, and this is with all due respect to Shazam, Billy Batson, it’s a mythology that I love, it’s been with me for almost 10 years now. What made me choose Black Adam was I just inherently felt Black Adam was more interesting to me, because I felt like there were more layers to Black Adam, starting out as a slave and then ultimately becoming the anti-hero who we enjoy today.

Shazam has a 2019 release, though Dwayne Johnson did recently state the release date might be moved up. 

The actor playing Shazam has yet to be cast as well.

Batman Vs. Superman Trailer Said To Be Attached To Mad Max: Fury Road

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19878:]]

Do we finally know when Warner Bros. will be releasing the Batman Vs. Superman trailer?

Now it’s being said the Batman Vs. Superman trailer will be attached to the May 15th release of Mad Max: Fury Road.

Apparently the online chatter is stating WB doesn’t want to release the Batman Vs. Superman trailer while Avengers 2 is showing (plus the Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer) and wants to wait a bit until mid-May with Mad Max so they can have the attention soley centered on Batman Vs. Superman.

Per the norm, consider this another rumor as nothing officialy has been announced, but since Mad Max is a WB movie, this has been just about everyone’s guess.

Update: Variety is reporting the Batman Vs. Superman trailer is confirmed for Mad Max.

Watch the Batman vs Superman Comic-Con trailer:

“Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” has a March 25, 2016 release starring Ben Affleck as Batman, Henry Cavill as Superman, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, Amy Adams as Lois Lane, Laurence Fishburne as Perry White, Diane Lane as Martha Kent, Jeremy Irons as Alfred, Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor, Ray Fisher as Cyborg with Callan Mulvey, Holly Hunter and Tao Okamoto in new character roles for the film.
