J.J. Abrams Talks New Star Wars Lightsaber: Star Trek 3 Still Set In Space

Fans of Star Wars nervous about the new lightsaber seen in the first Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer may be relieved to hear what J.J. Abrams says in the above video.

It turns out that all the reactions to the lightsaber – whether it works or not – were already thought of by Abrams and the crew working on Star Wars. Abrams says it was funny to see everyone talking about it.

“It’s been the funniest thing to see the arguments that have developed over this thing,” Abrams said. “It was a sketch that became a whole thing. This was not done without a lot of conversation, and it’s fun to see people have the conversation that we had, but in reverse.”

Abrams also lets it be known that he will be onboard Episodes VIII and IX as an executive producer and stated Rian Johnson is at least directing Star Wars: Episode VIII.

J.J. Abrams was also asked about Star Trek 3 as the movie has a new co-writer on board with Simon Pegg. When the title “Star Trek 3” was brought up, Abrams dismissed the notion with a smile.

“I don’t know ‘Star Trek 3’ really, though,” Abrams said, insinuating it will instead have a subtitle.

It’s then brought up that an example for the title could be “Star Trek: Adventures In Space,” with J.J. Abrams stating, “That is actually a great title,” and looking directly into the camera.

When Robert Orci was still attached to direct Star Trek 3, previous story details he let be known for the movie included that it would be set in space as well as would be closest to the original series more than any of the other prior movies.

With Abrams confirming Star Trek 3 will be set in space, it seems at least they are sticking with that aspect.

“Star Wars: The Force Awakens” has a December 18, 2015 release directed by J.J. Abrams from a screenplay by Lawrence Kasdan and Abrams. Kathleen Kennedy, J.J. Abrams, and Bryan Burk are producing, and John Williams returns as the composer.

Actors John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Oscar Isaac, Andy Serkis, Domhnall Gleeson, Max von Sydow, Lupita Nyong’o and Gwendoline Christie will join the original stars of the saga, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher, Mark Hamill, Anthony Daniels, Peter Mayhew, and Kenny Baker in the new film.

Spider-Man Back At Marvel? Amy Pascal Onboard As Producer

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19029:]]

Amy Pascal has stepped down from being co-chairman of Sony Pictures Entertainment and chairman of the Motion Picture Group.

She’s leaving to be a part of a new Sony production venture, which will see Pascal produce new movies.

THR reports part of the deal is for Pascal to be onboard as producer on the new all-female Ghostbusters film as well as future Amazing Spider-Man movies. It’s also reported Matt Tolmach will serve as a Spider-Man producer after having left his position as Columbia Pictures president.

Regarding whether Spider-Man has returned to Marvel is unknown, but the the officially released press details are rather interesting.

Pascal released a statement which reads in part plans are set for the next two years, which more than likely includes plans for Spider-Man (note: bold below my own).

“I have spent almost my entire professional life at Sony Pictures and I am energized to be starting this new chapter based at the company I call home,” Pascal said in a statement. “I have always wanted to be a producer. [Sony Entertainment CEO] Michael [Lynton] and I have been talking about this transition for quite some time, and I am grateful to him for giving me the opportunity to pursue my long-held dream and for providing unparalleled support. As the slate for the next two years has come together, it felt like the right time to transition into this new role. I am so grateful to my team, some of whom I have worked with for the last 20 years and others who have joined more recently. I am leaving the studio in great hands. I am so proud of what we have all done together and I look forward to a whole lot more.”

It’s further reported that Sony “will finance Pascal’s venture and retain all distribution rights worldwide to the films.”

Previously leaked e-mails that revealed Sony and Marvel were in talks for Spider-Man mentioned Marvel wanted the creative rights with Sony keeping distribution rights.

However, what is unclear is whether Spider-Man is technically staying at Sony (with Pascal just on as producer), or if Spider-Man is moving to the new production wing under Pascal (and possibly Marvel).

The news of Amy Pascal coming onboard as producer follows reports that Sony was holding a Spider-Man summit in January. Leaked e-mails revealed that Pascal was undecided about Spider-Man returning to Marvel, with reports also stating Marvel wanted a new Spider-Man actor while Pascal wanted to keep Andrew Garfield.

It probably should be noted both Marvel and Sony recently denied rumors of Spider-Man returning to Marvel.

Sinister Six is supposed to be released next year, so more than likely announcements should be coming soon.

Sony Brazil Facebook also teased future plans for Spider-Man are underway as well as teasing Sinister Six.

The Avengers 2 Hulkbuster Iron Man Vs. Hulk Statues

Check out a first look at The Avengers 2 Kotobukiya’s Hulkbuster Iron Man and Hulk ARTFX+ Statues.

Via Marvel:

Both statues are sculpted by the same master artist who was responsible for the Avengers Marvel Now series, the infamous Junnosuke Abe and are intricately crafted to perfection. The Hulkbuster Iron Man stands at a towering 11 ½ inches tall while the Hulk reaches 9 ½ inches (both in the ARTFX+ 1/10th scale).  Both massive combatants stride across the field of battle, while destroying a brick street underneath their massive weight. While each of the Marvel’s ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ ARTFX+ is an incredible display piece on their own, they’re even better together… as you can join their bases to recreate the epic battle scene in this summer’s highly anticipated film.

More info will be coming soon.

“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.

Synopsis:

When Tony Stark tries to jumpstart a dormant peacekeeping program, things go awry and Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, including Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, The Incredible Hulk, Black Widow and Hawkeye, are put to the ultimate test as the fate of the planet hangs in the balance. As the villainous Ultron emerges, it is up to The Avengers to stop him from enacting his terrible plans, and soon uneasy alliances and unexpected action pave the way for an epic and unique global adventure.

Ryan Reynolds Talks Green Lantern & Deadpool

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19002:]]

Ryan Reynolds latest movie, The Voices, hits February 6th.

With Reynolds doing press rounds for the film, he has also been talking Deadpool.

Ryan Reynolds previously stated they are doing Deadpool the right way and he hopes it’s R-rated.

Now Reynolds compares working on the Green Lantern movie to Deadpool in that when he started GL, there wasn’t even a script, but for Deadpool, it’s already ready and leaked online (via Yahoo).

Well, script. When we shot Green Lantern, nobody auditioning for the role of Green Lantern was given the opportunity to read the script, because the script didn’t exist. I’m not complaining about it — it was an opportunity of a lifetime, and if I were to go back and retrace my steps, I would probably do everything the exact same way. But script, that’s what’s different on this one. 

We’ve had a script for three years. The script got leaked, and people even loved that. That says a lot — if you can create a script around a comic-book character that is directly within the canon of the character and be embraced. That’s a huge step in the right direction. I’ve since learned that a lot of superhero movies don’t really have a fully functioning draft of the screenplay ready until they’re already well into shooting.

Reynolds also lets it be known the reason Deadpool was recently green lit was because of the leaked Deadpool footage.

I was excited, because you can look back at an email chain from all of us, the core group involved in Deadpool, saying “We should leak this, f—-,” like three years ago. Saying, “Hey, if this thing is going to stagnate, one of us should just say ‘Whoops, I slipped it online by accident.’” And nobody seemed to want to nut up and do that, myself included. Someone did it for us, years later, when we all completely assumed it was dead in the water.

Now, we get to make the movie. We don’t get to make it with the budget of most superhero movies, but we get to make it the way we want to make it, so that’s even more exciting than having a catered lunch.

Deadpool has a February 12, 2016 release.

Andy Serkis Confirmed As Klaw For The Avengers 2

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19001:]]

It’s finally confirmed what everybody has been speculating: Andy Serkis is playing Ulysses Klaw in The Avengers 2.

Marvel provided their Disney fan site, Stitchkingdom, an official description of the recent Serkis image stating the character is Ulysses Klaw.

With Serkis confirmed as Klaw, it’s probably more than likely The Avengers 2 will reference Black Panther. In the comics, Klaw went to Wakanda to steal Vibranium and ended up killing Black Panther’s father.

It’s been our guess for a while that Chadwick Boseman will first appear in The Avengers 2 as T’Challa, and then in full costume as Black Panther in Captain America: Civil War, which follows Avengers 2 a year later.

“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.

Synopsis:

House Forrester is in disarray. Their liege lord and his heir are dead, and Ironrath is occupied by Whitehill soldiers. The survival of the family depends upon those who are left. Placed at King’s Landing, the epicenter of intrigue, Mira Forrester must weigh her loyalty to Margaery Tyrell against the needs of her family, while choosing how to play the political games of Tyrion Lannister. One misstep could spell doom for Mira and her entire family. To the far north, Gared Tuttle finds that the wall and its crows hold little love for a squire from the Wolfswood, but finds kinship in the bastard son of Ned Stark. Gared must prove worthy of becoming a ranger in order to carry out the mission given him; one that is vital to the future of those he serves. To the east, Asher Forrester, the exiled son, is called back to Westeros to aid his family, but how can one man help when the Boltons rule the north with an iron fist? Meanwhile, an unexpected source of hope returns to the Forresters, but Ironrath is no place for the weak.

Ryan Reynolds Hopes Deadpool Is R-Rated & More (Video)

We get more from Ryan Reynolds above talking Deadpool.

Reynolds previously stated they are doing Deadpool the right way, and now Reynolds talks briefly about a potential R-rating for the movie and also about director Tim Miller.

While Reynolds can’t say much, he offers a lot of testing is coming up, but he does have the following to say about Miller:

“[He’s] always been the right guy.  He’s always, you know, shown nothing but a fierce loyalty to the canon of Deadpool and that’s the thing you look for first and foremost, a guy that is always wanting to push a little bit farther.  And the advantage of doing a movie like this on a budget that is significantly less than any other kind of superhero movie is that you get to do things that you don’t get to do on other superhero movies so that’s what we’re most excited about.”

Regarding an R-rating for Deadpool, Reynolds doesn’t want to spoil anything, but does hope that is the case.

“I have no idea … I don’t want to spoil anything so we’ll see.  We hope.”

Deadpool has a February 12, 2016 release.

M. Night Shyamalan Still Hopes For An Unbreakable Sequel

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18977:]]

Before comic book movies were all the rage, there was M. Night Shyamalan’s Unbreakable (and X-Men four months prior).

Unbreakable was a realistic comic book movie that starred Bruce Willis as the “super” hero and Samuel L. Jackson as the “super” villain.

The movie made almost $250 million at the box office (X-Men made almost $300 million).

There has been sequel talk since the movie’s release, and now fifteen years later, M. Night Shyamalan says he would still like to do a second film.

Speaking with Collider, Shyamalan offered the following:

Is he still hoping for a sequel?

Yeah, I do sometimes.  I love those characters and I love that world.  Of course, the whole world makes comic book movies now.  At the time, it was completely novel.  I remember when I made it, Disney was literally like, “Comic books?!  There’s no market for comic books!”  That’s all they make now!  It was a hilarious conversation.  I remember it.  I was like, “Maybe you’re right.  Maybe nobody will come see comic book movies.”  They were like, “Those are people in little conventions who like comic books.”  And I was like, “But, I like comic books!”

It would be interested to see Unbreakable in the world of today:

Yeah.  But the beauty of the world of Unbreakable is that you’re playing it for reality.  It should never feel like a comic book movie.  It feels like a straight-up drama.  It’s real.  You’re confronting the possibility that comic book characters were based on people that were real.  That’s the premise, so the tone has to be super grounded.  It would be cool.

Ultron & Adam Warlock Rumored For Guardians of the Galaxy 2

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:18974:]]

Some new rumors are suggesting that James Gunn may be adapting Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning’s Marvel Cosmic event Annihilation Conquest.

According to a Reddit user claiming he has been laid off as an intern for Marvel Studios, Guardians of the Galaxy 2 will feature Adam Warlock and Ultron.

The user claims to have a 200-page notebook filled with Marvel info that he acquired while working at Marvel for the past year.

Details for Guardians of the Galaxy 2 include that “Marvel is ready to push Adam Warlock on everyone and it’s going to rock!” The user also says Guardians of the Galaxy 2 is still being written and that “Gunn keeps that close to his chest.”

When questioned in regards to what movie coming up should be the most exciting, the user responds, “Guardians 2.”

The user also suggests to read Abnett and Lanning’s Annihilation Conquest stating “it’s a good book.”

Adam Warlock is also said to be the “#1 ‘wow, blown away, didn’t see that coming’ type item.”

“Adam Warlock. He’s a character Marvel has been sitting on for years. When they put him into play, it’s going to elevate the MCU to something else all together,” the reported Marvel leaker said.

The leaker also added that no one has been cast as Adam Warlock as far as he knew.

Other details mentioned include:

Mephisto will be the “new Loki” for Phase 3.

Adam McKay, Matt Reeves and Gareth Edwards are wanted to direct Thor 3.

Beta Ray Bill is a possibility.

It’s said Marvel ended discussions with Sony about Spider-Man because: “Marvel didn’t feel like they wanted to wait on Sony and Avi Arad. They were playing hardball and were difficult to deal with. not worth Marvel’s time so they dropped discussions.”

New Infinity Stones will show up in Doctor Strange and Guardians of the Galaxy 2.

ABC’s Agents Of SHIELD will appear in The Avengers 2.

Hank Pym is said to be a “Villain” with the following also stated:

Flashbacks would reveal that Hank and Janet worked as a duo. During a small mission, Janet is killed. This devastates Hank.

He devotes himself and his company to protecting people. Think like Tony in IM1. Problem is, he becomes paranoid, over protective. The board and Cross decide that Pym is out of control, and that he’s abusing the company’s resources. they out him as president.

Hank then hires Scott to steal from Cross, which he has a plan which would put him back in control of his company. During third act Pym reveals that he has a plan to control heroes. He doesn’t want anybody to get hurt like Janet did. Hope and Scott see how deranged this is.

By end of movie, Cross is outed and Pym is back. He starts the hard path towards Civil War by setting up the Registration act with Tony who he sees as a tool to accomplish his goals.

Again, not a true ‘villain’ more of a misunderstood good guy.

It should be noted, another Reddit user claiming to be an actual Marvel intern is stating the above is false.
