Mark Millar Talks Civil War & Spider-Man Back At Marvel

Mark Millar recently attended the Glassgow Film Festival where he participated in a QnA with IGN about his Civil War Marvel comic book and Spider-Man returning to Marvel.

Millar offered the following about Spider-Man, and you can listen to more above where Millar compares writing the Civil War comic with juggling gasoline due to all the tie-ins, talks using the likeness of Samuel L. Jackson in the comic and more.

People kept saying to me ‘they can’t do [Captain America] Civil War‘ without Spider-Man,’ but in the actual book Spider-Man only appears in about six pages.

In the end what they’ve got is Spider-Man back, which is actually great as somebody who has been baffled by the last two Spider-Man films, the idea of Marvel getting it back does feel like ‘coming home’ a little bit. It’s not that they can do no wrong. Thor 2 wasn’t very good and Iron Man 2 wasn’t very good, so they have their misfires as well, but I think Spider-Man is like the holy grail for them. They are not going to mess this up. They are going to make it great. All eyes are on them, so they have to bring their A-game.

Mark Millar is known for Kick-Ass, Kingsman: The Secret Service, and his Starlight comic is coming to the big screen with Star Wars writer Gary Whitta on the screenplay.

Peter David Comments On Jason Momoa as Aquaman

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19430:]]

With Zack Snyder releasing the first look at Jason Momoa as Aquaman, with it comes some contention amongst the fans.

While most fans seemed to be in favor of Momoa as Aquaman and approved of the first image, apparently some weren’t too happy.

Now comic book writer Peter David has addressed the situation. David wrote Aquaman back in the 1990s and says the Jason Momoa Aquaman is obviously his version and asks: Why do fans have to bitch about EVERYthing?

Check it out:

So now I’m reading comments from fans widely decrying the photo of Aquaman that Zack Snyder put up on Twitter. Apparently oblivious to the fact that it’s clearly my version of Arthur, fans are shouting that it looks nothing remotely like the DC Aquaman. Which I guess makes sense; mine was twenty years ago and that’s two generations of comics fans to have passed through and forgotten my iteration of the Sea King.

But still: when will they learn? I still remember clearly being at a convention back in the early 90s, and it had been announced that Tim Burton was casting Michael Keaton as Batman. I was on a panel and we were asked about it. Every other panel member said it was an insult, that it was going to be 1960s Adam West all over again. And I was the last person to speak, and I said, “Look: Tim Burton is a director. Keaton is an actor. They’re both good at what they do, and just because they’re mostly known for comedy doesn’t mean they can’t turn out a great Batman film.”

And I was booed. By everyone. Even the other panelists gave me the evil eye.

Flash forward several years, and I’m at another convention, and I hear two fans talking about the just announced “Batman Returns.” Their opinion: “It better be Tim Burton and Michael Keaton or otherwise it’s gonna suck.” I felt vindicated.

Remember when photos of Heath Ledger surfaced as the Joker and fans proclaimed he looked completely wrong and the film was going to suck?

And fans never learn. They NEVER learn.

Why the hell can’t they rein in their perpetual expectation for the worst and just wait to see the damned film? Yes, “Man of Steel” was a flawed film. Y’know what? It was still 100% better than Superman III and IV.

Now Michelle Rodriguez Says To Write Our Own Mythology & Stop Being Lazy (Video)

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19427:]]

Lately, Hollywood has been replacing white characters with minority actors, and while their spiel is usually “the best actor got the job,” some think it to be a form of racial diversity.

Earlier saw Fast and Furious actress Michelle Rodriquez questioned about potentially playing Green Lantern, with Rodriguez laughing it off and suggesting Hollywood stop replacing white superheroes and come up with their own.

Now Rodriguez has taken to her Facebook page to further clarify her statements.

You can watch the video below or check out the text:

Yeah, guys, I want to clarify about my comment yesterday. I stuck my foot in my mouth once again, and I said that people should stop trying to steal white people’s superheroes. I guess it got taken out of context ’cause a lot of people got offended or whatever. I have a tendency to speak without a filter. Sorry about that. 

What I really meant was that ultimately at the end of the day there’s a language, and the language that you speak in Hollywood is successful franchise. I think there are many cultures in Hollywood – that are not white – that can come up with their own mythology. I mean we all get it from the same reservoir of life. The fountain of life, and it doesn’t matter what culture you come from. I’m just saying that instead of trying to turn a girl character into a guy, or instead of trying to turn a white character into a black character or a latin character, I think that people should stop being lazy. People should actually make an effort in Hollywood to develop their own mythology. And you know what? If being American is your mythology, and the American culture is deep embedded into who you are and what makes you or the archetype that you are trying to portray in a Hollywood feature or in a comic book — so be that, but I’m just saying that the different cultures from around the world that are in Hollywood – latin, black, asian, so on and so forth – considered “minorities,” because there are not a lot of writers representing them, they should start focusing that on making that a serious priority.

It’s not about taking Catwoman or Superman or Green Lantern or whatever these characters are and trying to make them fit to whatever cultural background you are. I just feel like it should be more creative than that. I think that people need to stop being lazy. That’s what I meant by my comment. You know, I’m taking it to heart as well. I’m considering this while I am out there coming up with projects to do and things to write. I just think it’s time to stop. Stop trying to take what’s already there and try to fit culture into it. I think it’s time for us to write our own mythology and our own story. Every culture. That’s what I really mean, and I am sorry if it came off rude or stupid. It’s not what I meant.

So cheers.

Michelle Rodriguez Slams Playing Green Lantern & Racial Diversity

A rumor or speculation surfaced online stating Michelle Rodriguez may be the new Green Lantern.

DC Comics recently introduced a new female Green Lantern by the name of Power Ring.

Michelle Rodriguez, known for the Fast and Furious movies, doesn’t pull any punches when asked about playing Green Lantern by TMZ in the above video.

“That’s the dumbest thing I ever heard,” Rodriguez said with a laugh. “I think it’s so stupid because of this whole minorities in Hollywood thing. It’s so stupid. Stop stealing all the white people’s superheroes. Make up your own. You know what I am saying? What’s up with that?”

Update: Michelle Rodriguez has released a video clarifying her thoughts.

Regarding minorities playing white characters, the biggest question as of now is whether the new Spider-Man will be black and/or latino.

We obviously see that Rodriguez, of Dominican and Puerto Rican descent, would probably be against that.

Other notable characters that have been replaced include:

Nick Fury by Samuel L. Jackson
Aquaman by Jason Momoa
Human Torch by Michael B. Jordan
Electro by Jamie Foxx
Perry White by Laurence Fishburne
Jimmy Olsen by Mehcad Brooks
Iris West by Candice Patton

The Avengers 2 Is An Onslaught Says Chris Hemsworth And More

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19424:]]

Chris Hemsworth recently talked with Marvel.com and offered where Thor is in The Avengers 2.

“We pick up with Thor having stayed on Earth from Thor: The Dark World,” Hemsworth said. “He’s part of the team. This is his home for the moment. The initial attack from Ultron is personal because it’s at all the Avengers, and Thor then begins to see a bigger sort of picture here about what this threat could be potentially. And it begins to tie in to all of our films. It’s hard to say too much without talking about what I can’t talk about.”

Hemsworth also lets it be known that just because the Avengers and Ultron are set on Earth doesn’t necessarily mean Thor will be staying earth-bound, as Thor can bring his cosmic knowledge to the table.

“What information can I bring?’ So [Thor] calls upon some of his guardian knowledge and is able to go into another realm to pull out some information that’s hugely useful [and] certainly benefits where they are at that point,” Hemsworth offered.

As mighty as Thor is, and as much as Thor has seen, even Thor thinks the Avengers may not stand a chance against Ultron.

“I think he openly admits he doesn’t think we can win this one,” Hemsworth admitted. “The threat is so great that all of them are scratching their heads wondering if this it. It’s just an onslaught, and it doesn’t stop.  It’s a floodgate, and it could also set in motion is an even bigger threat. I think that’s what Thor’s stuck on, or where his attention certainly is. An even bigger picture of Thor being from Asgard where he can just say, ‘Hang on, there’s a whole universe here which is signaling something else.’”

Hemsworth also offers he will be fighting Iron Man in the movie (which also may help set up Captain America: Civil War).

“We’re not as conflicted [as a team] as we were before,” Hemsworth said. “[But Thor] has a pretty solid battle with Iron Man in this one, which is cool. It’s a lengthy fight scene of destruction.”

Now the interview reveals a new scene – so spoiler warning – involving Scarlet Witch in that the Avengers will be a part of a nightmare sequence.

“I think [the Avengers] will begin to have their fears held up in front of them,” Hemsworth said. “For Thor, I think it’s a corruption of power. Trying to have the understanding that we’re in this endless battle here and wondering when this is going to end, and how does it end. That’s where he really starts to kind of move through the story. Once that dream occurs, he can see what’s coming. It’s a ticking clock.”

Chris Hemsworth is also set to star in the third movie, Thor: Ragnarok, which hits November 3, 2017.

“The Avengers: Age Of Ultron” hits May 1, 2015 directed by Joss Whedon starring Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson, Mark Ruffalo, Jeremy Renner, Samuel L. Jackson, Elizabeth Olsen as Scarlet Witch, Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Quicksilver, Paul Bettany as Vision, with James Spader as Ultron.

Jason Momoa Talks Aquaman, Batman vs. Superman & Justice League

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19417:]]

Jason Momoa is set to play the King of the Seven Seas on the big screen come March 2016 in Batman Vs. Superman.

Momoa also stars in The Red Road TV series that airs on Sundance TV. While doing press for the series, Momoa talks about his DC slate and Aquaman.

Jason Momoa notes he didn’t shoot any action scenes for Batman Vs. Superman and looks forward to the Justice League movie for that; Momoa also says he doesn’t have a big role in Batman Vs. Superman as it’s their movie (via EW).

No, we haven’t done too much on the action yet. You know, Justice League is still quite a ways away. But I’m looking forward to it. Henry’s a sweetheart, Ben is a badass, so I’m really looking forward to when we all shoot Justice League.

Well, it’s Batman and Superman, it’s not my movie. It’s the first time in history to have them both on the screen together, and I’m just excited to see those two up there.  

Momoa also talks about the big Aquaman poster reveal that took everybody and the internet by storm.

That was a shocker for sure. It was supposed to be a surprise in 2016, so it definitely helps [our show]. I’ve been holding that secret for a long time. Zack Snyder called me up and said, “I’m posting this picture now.” He’s just a genius and I love him to death. He sent it over and we’re in the middle of the editing suite for the thing I’m doing right now, and we all freaked out, man. It was so amazing to see it come out.  

Momoa says Aquaman will be amazing with lots of surprises on the way.

The whole mythology of Aquaman is pretty amazing. There’s so many things to tell, and there’s a whole backstory that’s just amazing. There’s a lot of surprises coming. I think, yeah, he’s been cast aside. But, um [laughs] times are going to change now, buddy.

Batman Vs. Superman has a March 25, 2016 release; Justice League is due out in 2017, with Aquaman in 2018.

Gary Whitta Would Kill For Last Starfighter Remake

Gary Whitta Would Kill For Last Starfighter Remake

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19409:]]

Hollywood screenwriter Gary Whitta is known for writing The Book Of Eli, After Earth, The Walking Dead video game and most recently wrote a draft of of the Gareth Edwards Star Wars spinoff movie.

Whitta’s next project is Mark Millar’s Starlight, but Whitta also says he would like to write a remake for The Last Starfighter.

“Man, I wish. I’m one of a very long list of screenwriters who would kill for the opportunity to bring that back,” Whitta told Slash Film.

At one time, Steven Spielberg and Seth Rogen were interested in The Last Star Fighter as well, but similar to why they never got to remake it, Whitta also says it’s a rights issue.

“It just seems like the rights are impossible to figure out,” Whitta said. “Maybe one day. If there’s one thing that movie taught me, it’s to never stop believing that anything is possible. Even in Hollywood.”

According to Wiki, a remake for The Last Starfighter was on the table back in 2008, with the rights owned by GPA Entertainment, but the project stalled for some reason.

Various rumors have even said there were plans for a “Son of Starfighter” sequel.

The Last Starfighter originally launched back in 1984 that saw a teenager in a trailer park recruited through playing a video game to fight in an intergalactic war.

No Batman Vs. Superman Trailer With Focus

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19405:]]

It’s probably safe to say that there is no Batman Vs. Superman trailer attached to Will Smith and Margot Robbie’s Focus.

Focus debuted last night with advanced screenings and no word has surfaced about a Batman Vs. Superman trailer.

The internet would have exploded if the Batman Vs. Superman trailer was shown last night; so it looks like the guessing game continues.

With Zack Snyder releasing a first look at Jason Momoa as Aquaman, it was hoped the Batman Vs. Superman trailer would be released with Focus. In addition, Smith and Robbie are starring in Suicide Squad, which follows Batman Vs. Superman.

The first Man of Steel trailer actually didn’t debut until 11 months prior to its own release date; so the Batman Vs. Superman trailer may actually not be revealed until April.

Fast and Furious 7 appears to be the major movie for April, which hits April 3rd.

If we go back a previous month to March, there is Insurgent on March 20th.

Heading on to May sees The Avengers 2, which would be an obvious no-brainer for Warner Bros.

There is also WB’s Mad Max: Fury Road on May 15th starring Tom Hardy, which seems a likely candidate.

“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.

Neill Blomkamp Says New Alien Won’t Undo Alien 3 Or Resurrection

Neill Blomkamp is developing a new Alien film which will star Sigourney Weaver.

Blomkamp in a recent interview stated that his new Alien movie would be “the genetic sibling of Aliens” and then said “so it’s Alien, Aliens, this movie.”

The statement led some to believe that Blomkamp’s Alien would be ignoring or rewriting the third and fourth Alien movies.

However, now Blomkamp has cleared things up.

“My favorites are the first two movies,” Blomkamp said in the above interview. “So I want to make a film that’s connected to Alien and Aliens. That’s my goal. I’m not trying to undo Alien 3 or Alien: Resurrection, I just want it to be connected to Alien one and two.”
