Exclusive Deadpool Trailer Attached To Star Wars: The Force Awakens

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23261:]]

Deadpool trailer will be shown in front of Star Wars: The Force Awakens next Friday on IMAX. 

Update: According to Alberta Film Ratings, the Deadpool IMAX trailer will be 27 seconds long. In addition, two new Deadpool trailers are listed (which may be a PG-13 and a Red-Band version) coming in at 2 minutes and 24 seconds.

A user on Reddit who works at a movie theater posted a picture of the box that contains the Star Wars: The Force Awakens movie where listed are the following trailers:

Batman Vs. Superman
Captain America: Civil War
Deadpool
Independence Day: Resurgence
Jungle Book
Warcraft

Note: The Deadpool trailer may be new as it appears to be an IMAX 2D exclusive.

It was thought Fox was going with the X-Men: Apocalypse trailer (perhaps in different screenings for the Force Awakens?), but we see from the image some sort of Deadpool (assuming a non-Red-Band version) will be featured on IMAX.

You can watch the latest Deadpool trailer below.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens opens Friday, December 18th, with advance screenings kicking off Thursday night.

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23260:]]

“Deadpool” has a February 12, 2016 release directed by Tim Miller starring Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool, TJ Miller as Weasel, Gina Carano as Angel Dust, Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead, Morena Baccarin as Copycat and Ed Skrein as Ajax.

Synopsis:

Based upon Marvel Comics’ most unconventional anti-hero, DEADPOOL tells the origin story of former Special Forces operative turned mercenary Wade Wilson, who after being subjected to a rogue experiment that leaves him with accelerated healing powers, adopts the alter ego Deadpool. Armed with his new abilities and a dark, twisted sense of humor, Deadpool hunts down the man who nearly destroyed his life.

Mark Hamill To Host EPSN Star Wars Documentary

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23192:]]

While we have yet to see Mark Hamill as Luke Skywalker in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the actor can be seen hosting a Star Wars documentary on ESPN.

Examining the sport and athleticism behind the choreography and training utilized in the making of Star Wars lightsaber duels, Star Wars: Evolution of the Lightsaber Duel, hosted by Mark Hamill, will air Tuesday, Dec. 15, at 7 p.m. ET on ESPN. The documentary will precede the Friday, Dec. 18, launch of Star Wars: The Force Awakens in U.S. theaters.

Check out the trailer below.

“Lightsaber duels from the Star Wars films are some of cinema’s most recognized battles and an iconic part of the most popular movie franchise of all time,” said Craig Lazarus, ESPN vice president, SportsCenter & News, Storytelling Units.

“We will take viewers on a unique journey that examines the connection of these duels to sports and their evolution, from the original trilogy through the prequels, and now to Star Wars: The Force Awakens,” said Lazarus. “Viewers will see the transition from fencing and samurai swordplay in the original films to an increased focus on martial arts and the sport of kendo.”

For the documentary, ESPN traveled to the 2015 Kendo World Championships in Japan to gather interviews and information to explain the genesis of kendo and how it applies to Star Wars lightsaber duels.

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23193:]]

Hamill, who reprises his role of Luke Skywalker in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, lived in Japan for his last two years of high school and is very familiar with kendo.

“I really feel that kendo has informed so much of what we have done in the films it is about time that it gets some long-overdue recognition,” Hamill said.

What people don’t realize is how much goes into what appears to be just minutes on the screen,” Hamill said. “The elaborate choreography for the actual fight is done on several different sets over a period of weeks and then it is edited down to what you see on the screens, so I am happy people are able to see the amount of work that goes into it.”

The program also will include behind-the-scenes video of actor John Boyega, who plays Finn in the new film, as he trains for a lightsaber battle scene. Boyega is interviewed for the program as is his kendo trainer, Paul Vincent.

SC Featured also traveled to England to interview actor Ian McDiarmid, who portrayed Emperor Palpatine in previous Star Wars films and Nick Gillard, kendo expert and former Star Wars stunt man and choreographer.

New interviews with film director/producer J.J. Abrams and Jonathan W. Rinzler, Lucasfilm historian, are also part of the documentary along with rare, behind-the-scenes footage from the Lucasfilm archive.

On Oct. 19, the trailer for Star Wars: The Force Awakens debuted during halftime of ESPN’s Monday Night Football game between the New York Giants and Philadelphia Eagles, with tickets for the movie going on sale immediately afterward.

“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.

Mark Hamill Teases Where Is Luke Skywalker?

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23188:]]

Where the heck is Luke Skywalker?

Luke has been noticeably absent from all teasers, trailers, promos and even merchandise.

As we get closer to the premiere of Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the only tidbit from Mark Hamill and Luke Skywalker has been two cast images (pictured above) and a voice-over in a teaser. While an image of Luke Skywalker may have leaked online, we still don’t have a clue about anything in regards to the character.

While we here at Cosmic Book News actually think it’s a good thing (we’re not posting spoilers until the movie debuts), mainstream newspapers and even Mark Hamill himself have taken notice to the lack of attention — or maybe it should be said the lack of “promotion.”

Hamill posted the following image on Facebook of himself peeking behind a newspaper where the headline reads: “Where is Luke?”

An image has also been making its rounds on social media of a “Missing” Luke Skywalker as well (see below).

Obviously we’ll all discover what becomes of Luke on December 18th when the movie opens, and we are also guessing Disney will be amping up a second wave of promotion and merchandise following the movie’s debut with Luke Skywaker and more of the original cast as well.

Here is what Boyega had to say to Shanter:

 “Here’s what you need to do,” Boyega said, addressing the man who played Captain Kirk. “Take a seat. Have a nice tea. And keep your mouth closed.”

Carrie Fisher Responds To Slave Leia Complaints

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:23121:]]

It’s been said that since Disney now owns the rights to Star Wars, they will not be producing any more merchandise of Slave Leia.

Recently also saw a father complain about a Star Wars Slave Leia toy — in that he didn’t know how to explain it to his daughters, which went viral.

Now word of the incident has reached Carrie Fisher who offers up her own explanations to the guy’s daughters.

Via WSJ:

There’s been some debate recently about whether there should be no more merchandise with you in the “Return of the Jedi” bikini.

I think that’s stupid.

To stop making the merchandise?

The father who flipped out about it, “What am I going to tell my kid about why she’s in that outfit?” Tell them that a giant slug captured me and forced me to wear that stupid outfit, and then I killed him because I didn’t like it. And then I took it off. Backstage.

And again via LA Times:

How about telling his daughter that the character is wearing that outfit not because she’s chosen to wear it. She’s been forced to wear it. She’s a prisoner of a giant testicle who has a lot of saliva going on and she does not want to wear that thing and it’s ultimately that chain, which you’re now indicating is some sort of accessory to S&M, that is used to kill the giant saliva testicle…. That’s asinine.
