Spider-Man Sony Hacked Documents Now Online

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:20096:]]

The leaked e-mails and documents as a result of the recent Sony hack are now online.

WikiLeaks published all the hacked documents, which includes information on Spider-Man and Marvel.

The WikiLeaks site has a search engine which allows users to input keywords, with “Spider-Man” returning more than 1000 results (inputting “Marvel” yields a similar number).

Leaked e-mails also reveal communications between Pascal and Disney billionaire and Marvel CEO Ike Perlmutter.

E-mails reveal that Pascal and Perlmutter had a friendly relationship as e-mails are regularly sent back and forth between the two ranging from Pascal congratulating Marvel for a movie’s success, to Perlmutter and Pascal talking about Kevin Feige, to Perlmutter offering Pascal a Happy Jewish New Year and a happy birthday.

Further e-mails reveal some sort of problem with Drew Goodard as litigation is cited. E-mails from Head Of Marvel TV Jeph Loeb state something about litigation, Drew Goddard, Sony and Netflix – with Perlmutter replying to Pascal they should be “very concerned,” which was dated April 15, 2014. Subsequent e-mails read Marvel worked everything out, with Pascal excited for the upcoming Amazing Spider-Man 2 and Goddard writing Sinister Six. Perlmutter regularly replies Marvel and Disney will help in any way and often calls Spider-Man, Marvel’s “baby.”

An e-mail sent from the CEO of Sony, Michael Lynton, reads he thought putting Spider-Man in Captain America 3 served no benefit to Marvel: “Putting Spider-Man in Captain America 3 with Chris Evans and with Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man doesn’t provide much benefit to Marvel, but it definitely provides a significant amount of benefit to Sony and to Spider-Man.”

An e-mail offers a tidbit about Sinister Six in that Spider-Man is set to appear. Andrew Garfield had questions about his pay as he wondered if it would be the equivalent of  an “Amazing Spider-Man 3,” as well as if it would fulfill his three movie contract obligation. Sony’s Doug Belgrad told Garfield’s reps Sinister Six was a “standalone” with Spider-Man only set to “appear.” In addition, a Sony e-mail reads they are not paying Garfield “the same money.”

Another e-mail from Perlmutter to Lynton reads Perlmutter apparently is against solo female movies and cites Electra, Catwoman and Supergirl as being “disasters.”

An e-mail from an executive at Marvel, John Turitzin, concerns Fox’s Deadpool movie as an article at Variety is cited to state Kevin Feige is producing. Turitzin’s e-mail to Bob Cohen of Fox Studios tells Fox that isn’t the case and to correct their information. The e-mail says Marvel doesn’t want people to think there is a chance of a Marvel / Fox crossover with the “falsehood” of Feige being involved on Deadpool (dated October 2014).

Regarding Spider-Man returning to Marvel, e-mails from Lynton to Perlmutter feature a list of articles on various sites, dated October 2014, about the character’s return. Perlmutter states some of the mainstream press is asking about Spider-Man returning to Marvel – with Perlmutter questioning “how can this be?” – and states it could be a problem. Lynton responds it has been brought to his attention, but he has no idea where it’s coming from, and that it can be ignored.

Other leaked Spider-Man documents include information on the Amazing Spider-Man films media budget, TV spots, Amazing Spider-Man 2 Superbowl trailer, marketing strategy (where a memo mentions they think AS2 will do better than the first), and lots more.

Bear in mind the e-mails were date 2014, so obviously things could have changed regarding some of the contents and subjects (and obviously have such as Spider-Man now a part of Marvel).

Ryan Reynolds Hit By Car Driven By Paparazzi

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:20031:]]

This past Friday saw Ryan Reynolds hit by a car driven by the paparazzi.

Reynolds, who is presently filming Deadpool in his hometown, was struck by the car in a parking garage in Vancouver.

Canada’s CTV News reports the car drove off after striking Reynolds, and that the police are investigating.

The report mentions that Ryan Reynolds was not injured by the incident.

“While walking, Ryan was struck by a paparazzi driving a car through an underground parking garage,” Reynolds’ publicist, Leslie Sloane, confirmed.  “The man fled the scene. Ryan is okay.” 

It’s said the police presently have “an idea” who hit Reynolds, and also that the hotel where the parking garage is located is fully cooperating. As Reynolds wasn’t hurt by the incident, it’s said the police need to speak with Reynolds in person to determine charges.

As the incident happened this past Friday, we see that Reynolds was unaffected as filming continued on Deadpool Saturday, with Reynolds tweeting out the image of Brianna Hildebrand as Negasonic Teenage Warhead.

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

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.”

Ryan Reynolds Still Hoping For Deadpool R-Rating

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19857:]]

The rating is still to be determined for the Merc With The Mouth movie.

Fans of the comics know that Deadpool could easily go the R-Rated route; however, that was one thing that seemed to be holding up the movie from getting made in that Fox Studios executives didn’t think an R-rated “superhero” movie could make it.

Things changed when the Deadpool footage was leaked, and the movie is now getting made.

Earlier today saw Ryan Reynolds fire off a couple of tweets: one showing his Deadpool physique, but the other stated they are still fighting for the R-rating.

A while back, Deadpool creator Rob Liefeld agreed that the movie could still be hilarious and brutal with a PG-13 rating.

It’s possible Negasonic Teenage Warhead may be different than her comic book counterpart as the article notes Brianna Hildebrand is undergoing physical and stunt training for the part, which possibly suggests more than just precog abilities.

Spider-Man Back In Trouble? Tom Rothman Named Head Of Sony Motion Picture Group

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:19342:]]

It’s learned that Tom Rothman has replaced Amy Pascal and has been named the head of Sony’s motion picture group.

We’re not sure if or how this will affect plans for the new Spider-Man, but for comic book movie fans, red flags should be going off.

Rothman was recently said to have been let go from Fox due to a lackluster performance, with Rothman said to have interfered in the production of X-Men Origins: Wolverine without the director’s knowledge and apparently was also responsible for blocking the Deadpool movie (see below). Rothman was also behind X-Men: The Last Stand.

Regarding Spider-Man, Amy Pascal is spearheading the new direction as part of a new Sony venture production wing, so it’s possible Rothman’s input may be minimal. In addition, Marvel’s Kevin Feige is onboard as producer.

The Amazing Spider-Man movies ran into problems when the producers didn’t care much for director Marc Webb’s input, which obviously led to the current situation. Hopefully, history isn’t going to repeat itself with Rothman.

Deadpool creator Rob Liefeld isn’t a fan and tweeted the following about the Rothman news:

ROLE REQUIRES THREE SEQUEL OPTIONS.

[SIMON] Any ethnicity, late 20s to early 40s. Quirky, great sense of humor. Smart, funny, but more than a little bit slippery. Fast talker, always looking to make a buck. He looks out for himself first and foremost, but reveals loyalty at the end of the day. ROLE REQUIRES THREE SEQUEL OPTIONS.

[SHIRLIE] African American, late 60s to early 80s. Worldly, great sense of comedic timing, sarcastic, dry, funny. ROLE REQUIRES THREE SERIES OPTIONS.
