DC Comics Announces Justice League: Gods And Men

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21329:]]

During Friday’s One on One panel at COMIC-CON INTERNATIONAL: SAN DIEGO 2015, JUSTICE LEAGUE writer Geoff Johns revealed his plans for a series of one-shots spinning out of his current “Darkseid War” story arc.

Scheduled for October, JUSTICE LEAGUE: GODS AND MEN is a series of six single issues focusing on key characters in the Darkseid War and extends their individual conflicts against the backdrop of universal Armageddon, with Darkseid squaring off against the Anti-Monitor:    

Batman – Armed with the godlike power of the Mobius Chair, the Dark Knight has taken on the role of Metron and plans to use the infinite knowledge of this device to turn Gotham City into a completely crime-free zone!    

Superman – Corrupted by the weird energies of Apokolips’ fire pits, Superman has been turned into an angry, violent brute. And only one man can possibly save him: Lex Luthor.               

Green Lantern – Oa has been conquered and transformed into a Parademon factory and the Green Lantern Corps is no more! Only Hal Jordan remains to follow a distress call from the last active Lantern seen fighting on Oa: John Stewart               

Lex Luthor – At last, Lex Luthor, the new ruler of Apokolips, can do what he never could accomplish on Earth: hold the fate of a world in his hands. But his one failure from the “Darkseid War” continues to keep him from the peace he craves – and only a crazed Superman can help him get it!               

The Flash – The Flash takes on the role of death’s harbinger, the Black Racer. And the beneficiary of his first visit is Aquaman!

Shazam! – Instead of accessing the powers of the old gods, Billy Batson now commands the combined powers of the New Gods like Highfather, Mantis and others trapped within the Source Wall. And that’s power that no mortal should possess!

Pacific Rim 2 Starts Filming This Fall

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21325:]]

It’s learned Pacific Rim 2 starts filming this Fall.

Yahoo caught up with director Guillermo del Toro who let it be known shooting begins in November.

Plot details aren’t specific, but it’s said Pacific Rim 2 picks up a few years following the first one, with the report mentioning it will have a sharper focus on the monstrous kaiju.

Guillermo Del Toro confirmed a huge end scene for the movie, and that they are in the middle of designing the new robots and kaiju for the sequel.

“We have an epic battle at the end [that] we started designing a couple weeks ago,” Guillermo Del Toro said.

“It’s a few years after the first one,” Del Toro stated in a previous interview. “It’s not an immediate follow-up.  It is the world having been freed of Kaiju, what happens to the world after – what happens to the Jaeger technology once the Kaiju are not a threat.  It’s quite a jump.”

It’s also said it’s unknown whether Charlie Hunnam will be back as Jaeger pilot Raleigh Becket, but with filming to start soon, expect casting announcements to be made in the coming months.

Pacific Rim 2 has an August 4, 2017 release date.

An image of the final look of Nicholas Cage in his Superman Lives costumes has surfaced online, and ten minutes of the new documentary has been released exploring the film with The Death of ‘Superman Lives’: What Happened? which is now available on DVD, Blu-ray and VOD and can be found at booth #3915 at Comic-Con

Info:

The Death of “Superman Lives”: What Happened? is a Feature Length Documentary about the unmade movie “Superman Lives”. This film, out of all the various attempts to make a Superman movie between 1987 and 2006, would have stood the test of time and become a bonafide Cult Classic nowadays. I am not alone with my intense interest in knowing everything I can about this project, and so now I’m embarking on making a Documentary that will cover everything ever made for this film, from interviewing as many people as I can who were involved, to including actually recreating scenes from the script!!!

For the first time in nearly a century, humans have returned to planet Earth.

Watch: Three Minority Report Teasers

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21307:]]

Fox has released three new teasers for their upcoming new series Minority Report, which premiers Monday, September 21st.

Minority Report follows the unlikely partnership between a man haunted by the future and a cop haunted by her past, as they race to stop the worst crimes of the year 2065 before they happen.

Synopsis:

Based on the international blockbuster film by executive producer Steven Spielberg and the first of his films to be adapted for television, MINORITY report follows the unlikely partnership between a man haunted by the future and a cop haunted by her past, as they race to stop the worst crimes of the year 2065 before they happen.

Set in Washington, D.C., it is 10 years after the demise of Precrime, a law enforcement agency tasked with identifying and eliminating criminals…before their crimes were committed. To carry out this brand of justice, the agency used three precogs – “precognitives” Dash, Arthur and Agatha – who were able to see the future. Now, in 2065, crime-solving is different, and justice leans more on sophisticated and trusted technology than on the instincts of the precogs.

Precog DASH (Stark Sands, “Inside Llewyn Davis”) – driven by his terrifying, but fragmented visions – now has returned in secret to help a brash, but shrewd, police detective, LARA vega (Meagan Good, “Think Like A Man” franchise, “Californication”), attempt to stop the murders that he predicts.

As they navigate this future America, they will search for Dash’s missing twin brother, ARTHUR, and elude others who will stop at nothing to exploit their precog abilities. Also complicating matters is Dash and Arthur’s ingenious, but reclusive, foster sister, AGATHA (Laura Regan, “Mad Men,” “Unbreakable”), who just wants Dash to return home.

A drama of crime and conspiracy, this is a timeless story of connection: two lost souls, Dash and vega, who find friendship, purpose and redemption in each other.

Comic-Con: Ron Perlman Says He Wants Hellboy 3

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21301:]]

Ron Perlman has been teasing fans on social networks with mention of Hellboy 3.

Now while attending the Comic-Con panel for the Amazon series Hand Of God, Perlman lets it be known he definitely wants to complete the Trilogy.

“If there’s a real honesty to fan-culture relationships, we owe the world the finale of Hellboy,” Perlman told the audience, reports Deadline. “We set up the whole film. It’s a deal we made (with fans). I don’t want to do Hellboy IV or V. I want to finish the f-cking trilogy!”

Perlman also acknolwedged his first tweet wasn’t a confirmation of Hellboy 3 as he had to “call studio executives to apologize,” but Perlman did note there’s been some talk with the Hellboy‘s director Guillermo del Toro, but nothing concrete.

Perlman offered the direction he thought Hellboy 3 should go with his character becoming the beast of the Apocalypse so that he can vanquish the foe in the third film — in order to defend humanity, Hellboy has to become a darker character.

Watch: Nicole Perlman Talks Guardians of the Galaxy & Captain Marvel

Check out video above of Nicole Perlman talking Captain Marvel and Guardians of the Galaxy.

Perlman is on board writing the Captain Marvel movie in which she says it’s currently in the brainstorming stage.

Regarding Guardians of the Galaxy, Perlman recounts how she got involved with writing the first version of the script. Perlman was a part of a Marvel writing program back in 2009 in which Marvel told the writers to develop lesser known properties.

A new Gamora comic book series is also in the works from Perlman which is set prior to Gamora joining the Guardians of the Galaxy team.

Here are some highlights:

They gave us a list of lesser known properties and said ‘choose one of these and you will be developing it for a couple of years by yourself.’ So we said ‘okay’ and everybody chose one. The one I chose was Guardians, which I got a lot of funny looks about because it was the least well known property on the list. 

I was originally drawn to the first group of Guardians. I thought there’s something really cool about Vance Astro and the whole idea about being temporally dislocated, but I loved the 2008 Dan Abnett and Andy Lanning reboot of the series. It just had so much color and sarcasm, and that was something that the producers were excited about as well.

I tried a lot of different versions of which Guardians to include in the story, but the ones that ended up in the movie are the ones that we decided fulfilled all the best parts of that team. We’re encapsulated by those guys.

Rocket Raccoon was a late addition. I’m really glad we put him in. He was very much on the fence for a while. I loved him, and Kevin loved him. There was some back and forth, and he made it in. Thank goodness.

With Quill we changed his backstory fairly significantly because we didn’t want him to start out too noble at the beginning and be doing this for noble reasons. We wanted him to be a bit of a scoundrel.
