Sons of Anarchy Mayan Spinoff In The Works

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21868:]]

Following the success of Sons Of Anarchy, it’s being reported Sons creator Kurt Sutter is developing a spinoff centering on the Mayans Motorcycle Club.

THR notes, the Mayan spinoff is still early in the development process and that Sutter is keeping mum on the Sons Of Anarchy spinoff details.

In the Sons of Anarchy series, the Mayans were a rival motorcycle gang comprised of Mexican and Mexican-Americans who at times sided with the Sons and butted heads with them as well. 

It’s possible the Mayan spinoff could star Emilio Rivera, who portrayed the Mayan president Marcus Alvarez.

Kurt Sutter left the Mayan storyline pretty much opened following what went down in the Sons final season.

Matthew Willig Cast As Inhumans Lash For Agents of SHIELD Season 3

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21858:]]

Marvel and ABC released a new synopsis for Agents Of SHIELD Season 3 where it’s revealed former NFL player turned actor Matthew Willig will be playing the Inhuman Lash.

Check out the new synopsis and details below.

Marvel’s Agents Of SHIELD returns Tuesday, September 29th at 9 pm EST on ABC starring Clark Gregg, Chloe Bennet and Ming-Na Wen.

Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD Season 3 Synopsis:

“Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” returns for an action-packed third season, with Director Phil Coulson (Clark Gregg) and Agent Daisy Johnson (Chloe Bennet) leading the charge as S.H.I.E.L.D. searches the world for more powered people in the aftermath of their epic battle with Jiaying and her army of Inhumans. However, Coulson and the team soon find out that they are not the only group looking for these new Inhumans.

Many months after their war with a rogue group of Inhumans, the team is still reeling. Coulson is again trying to put the pieces of his once revered organization back together while also dealing with the loss of his hand. His confidante and second in command, Agent Melinda May (Ming-Na Wen), has yet to return from an impromptu vacation with ex-husband Andrew (Blair Underwood); deadly superspy Agent Bobbi Morse (Adrianne Palicki) is recovering from her traumatic torture at the hands of Grant Ward (Brett Dalton); Fitz (Iain De Caestecker) is obsessed with discovering the truth behind the mysterious disappearance of Simmons (Elizabeth Henstridge); and all are on high-alert for the next move from Ward and Hydra.

Ever since the existence of Super Heroes and aliens became public knowledge after the Battle of New York, the world has been trying to come to grips with this new reality. Coulson assembled a small, highly select group of Agents from the worldwide law-enforcement organization known as S.H.I.E.L.D. (Strategic Homeland Intervention Enforcement and Logistics Division). S.H.I.E.L.D.’s mission: to protect those who cannot protect themselves from threats they cannot conceive.

But bigger threats loom ahead, setting the stakes even higher for the Agents, including the spread of Terrigen, an alien substance that unlocks superhuman abilities in select individuals; the emergence of new Inhumans who cannot yet control nor understand their powers; the rise of a new government organization that will go toe-to-toe with S.H.I.E.L.D.; the unknown properties of the massive alien Kree monolith, which has taken one of their own; and the constant threat of a rebuilt Hydra terrorist organization under S.H.I.E.L.D. traitor Grant Ward, who is making it his personal mission to take down Coulson and S.H.I.E.L.D.

New faces, both friend and foe, will join the series, including the no-nonsense, highly-skilled and somewhat mysterious leader (Constance Zimmer) of the ATCU (Advanced Threat Containment Unit), her intimidating partner, Banks (Andrew Howard), Lash (Matthew Willig), a monstrous Inhuman whose loyalties remain ambiguous, and new Inhuman Joey (Juan Pablo Raba), who is struggling to harness his newfound abilities, among other surprising characters.

Coulson, with the help of Daisy and Mack (Henry Simmons), will work to slowly assemble a team that is stronger than ever before, combining the highly skilled Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. with powered individuals in the hopes of protecting the innocent in a world where the balance of power is ever-shifting, and new dangers are constantly emerging.

“Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” stars Clark Gregg as Director Phil Coulson, Ming-Na Wen as Agent Melinda May, Brett Dalton as Grant Ward, Chloe Bennet as Agent Daisy Johnson, Iain De Caestecker as Agent Leo Fitz, Elizabeth Henstridge as Agent Jemma Simmons, Nick Blood as Agent Lance Hunter, Adrianne Palicki as Agent Bobbi Morse, Henry Simmons as Agent Alphonso “Mack” MacKenzie and Luke Mitchell as Lincoln Campbell.

“Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” was co-created by Joss Whedon, Jed Whedon & Maurissa Tancharoen, who also serve as executive producers along with Jeph Loeb and Jeffrey Bell. “Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” is produced by ABC Studios and Marvel Television, and is broadcast in 720 Progressive (720P), ABC’s selected HDTV format, with 5.1-channel surround sound.

“A year ago, a terrorist attack in Odessa, Texas, left the city decimated.

Watch: The Driving Dead Episode 4 With Michael Rooker

Actor Michael Rooker returns to his starring role in The Driving Dead Series with a new webisode, “The Chase,” premiering today.

The Driving Dead Series launched in August 2014 by the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) to thwart dangerous driving behaviors, like drinking and driving and failure to wear a seat belt, among the most at-risk audience – young men. According to recent IDOT data, seat belt usage in Illinois reached an all-time high of more than 95 percent in 2015. This marks an increase over last year representing an estimated 377 lives saved on Illinois roads. 

The web-based Driving Dead Series has amassed more than 2.4 million YouTube views with its first three episodes. Rooker, renowned for his roles in Marvel’s, Guardians of the Galaxy, and AMC’s, The Walking Dead, has been involved with the series from its inception.

“Years ago, I lost my brother to a seat belt related traffic fatality, so this series is extremely close to my heart,” said Rooker. “It is my sincerest hope that my fans will watch and share these videos, and that by doing so, we can make people think twice before engaging in any kind of dangerous driving behavior.

Fear The Walking Dead Ratings Score Record 10.1 Million Viewers

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21836:]]

The premiere episode for AMC’s Fear The Walking Dead is a smash hit as the first episode scored a cable record 10.1 million viewers.

To put the numbers in perspective, the first episode of The Walking Dead that aired back in October of 2010 manage 5.35 million viewers, and most recently AMC’s first episode for Better Call Saul, the Breaking Bad spinoff, netted 6.88 million viewers.

Fear The Walking Dead also managed to have 6.3 million viewers amongst the coveted adult 18-49 advertising demographic, which gave the show a 4.9 rating.

Fear The Walking Dead, similar to The Walking Dead, also managed to top the NFL’s Sunday Night Football.

The Walking Dead franchise continues to prove itself as last season saw TWD’s Season 5 opener scored a record-breaking 17.3 million viewers, with the Season 5 finale drawing 15.8 million viewers. Season 6 premiers October 11th.

“Fear The Walking Dead” Season 1 airs for six episodes Sundays on AMC starring Kim Dickens, Cliff Curtis, Frank Dillane and Mercedes Mason.

Synopsis:

Fear The Walking Dead is described as a gritty drama living in the same universe as The Walking Dead that explores the onset of the undead apocalypse through the lens of a fractured family. Set in a city where people come to escape, shield secrets, and bury their pasts, a mysterious outbreak threatens to disrupt what little stability high school guidance counselor Madison Clark and English teacher Travis Manawa have managed to assemble. The everyday pressure of blending two families while dealing with resentful, escapist, and strung out children takes a back seat when society begins to break down. A forced evolution, a necessary survival of the fittest takes hold, and our dysfunctional family must either reinvent themselves or embrace their darker histories.

Watch: Stephen Amell Vs Stardust At SummerSlam

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21832:]]

Stephen Amell happened to to be the one shining moment in a rather lackluster WWE SummerSlam PPV.

While Amell took to the skies as the Green Arrow during the match, overall, many fans were disappointed with the majority of matches as about 50% voted on the WWE Facebook page that they didn’t like SummerSlam.

Yours truly has been watching wrestling for about 35 years, and while I felt a majority of the SummerSlam matches were done rather well, I found a problems with the Cena vs Rollins match, and like everybody else, the disappointing end to the Taker/Lesnar match (also: isn’t Cesaro allowed to win, or what?).

If you’re paying for the WWE Network – and it’s a PPV – how about some clean finishes?

That said, check out Stephen Amell, star of Arrow, who debuted last night at SummerSlam partnering with Neville to take on Cody “Stardust” Rhodes and the “Cosmic King” Wade Barrett. I was really impressed with Amell’s in-ring action as he pulled off some nice moves and sold them really well.

Amell also offered, in a pre-match interview, that the upcoming season of Arrow will resemble the Green Arrow: Year One graphic novel.

Hopefully, Stephen Amell gets a shot at Wrestlemania.

 

Just… one of the greatest nights of my life.http://represent.com/amellstardust

Nathan Fillion Wants To Play Booster Gold, Ambush Bug or Greatest American Hero

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21813:]]

Nathan Fillion, a one time fan-favorite choice to play Star-Lord for Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy, lets it be known he would be interested in playing Booster Gold for DC.

Fillion did cameo in Gunn’s Guardians of the Galaxy and is known for voicing Green Lantern in the DC animated universes.

A fan at Wizard World Chicago asked Fillion if he could play any character in either DC or Marvel, who would it be?

“I think I could take a pretty good crack at Booster Gold,” Fillion told the crowd, who were in attendance for a Firefly panel. “That’s kind of my niche – show-offy, vain. I think I could handle that – not too bright. I think Ambush Bug; little bit off his rocker. You never see my face. But I think Greatest American Hero is do for a reboot.”

Fillion then questioned Summer Glau about what she knows about super heroes, with Glau responding, “I like She-Ra.”

Fillion replied, “You are totally a princess of power.”

Adam Baldwin chimed in stating maybe he could play Green Lantern, with Fillion shaking his head no.

“I don’t know,” Baldwin smiled, and they all laughed with Fillion stating Green Lantern has already been taken.

Regarding Booster Gold, a while back there was talk about a SyFy series in development, but really nothing has been mentioned in a couple years.

Interestingly enough, a Greatest American Hero remake is underway.

You can watch the video below for more from Nathan Fillion talking super heroes.

Stephen Amell Says Batman in Arrow & A Movie Appearance Is Possible

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:21812:]]

Prior to Stephen Amell’s debut in the squared circle later tonight for SummerSlam, the actor stopped by Wizard World Chicago.

Amell talked about a range of topics, which happened to include the Dark Knight potentially appearing in the Arrow universe as well as the possibility of Amell appearing in the DC Cinematic Universe.

Regarding Batman appearing on Arrow, Amell admitted it would be “tough,” but did state it’s possible.

“In the same way that [Ezra Miller’s] playing the Flash in the cinematic universe – theoretically, we haven’t seen him yet – I see no reason why we couldn’t have our own Bruce Wayne. That’s my opinion; that might not be DC’s opinion, and they’re the bosses.”

Amell has been a fan-favorite choice to play the Green Arrow in the DCCU as well, and the actor has not been silent about wanting to appear in the movie universe. Amell says it’s not like his contract forbids it, so technically it’s possible.

“Whenever I talk to people, it’s like, ‘this is an evolving process,'” Amell offered. “And there’s absolutely no contractual barriers and/or creative barriers between me and being in a movie, one of the DC movies.” 

Speaking of Ezra Miller, Miller recently mentioned that his version of The Flash and the Grant Gustin Flash actually exist in parallel universes, which brings up speculation of some sort of Crisis event, in which the DC multiverses collide. There hasn’t been any hints or mention that may actually happen, but it always exists and would make for a pretty cool two part Justice League movie.

Amell also let it be known he has been filming Constantine scenes all week with Matt Ryan (via CBM).

“Arrow” Season 2 premiers Wednesday, October 7th.

Watch: Stephen Amell Confirms Arrow Costume For SummerSlam

 

Packing for #SummerSlam

 

Posted by Stephen Amell on Thursday, August 20, 2015

We have confirmation that Stephen Amell will be suited up as the Arrow for his WWE SummerSlam match that takes place later tonight in Brooklyn, NY.

Stephen Amell released the above video teasing his Arrow costume mentioning “you didn’t think I was coming without it.”

Amell will be teaming with Neville, the “Red Arrow,” to take on Wade Barrett and Cody “Stardust” Rhodes.

The actor has been feuding with Stardust for some time, which recently came to a head on an episode of RAW when Rhodes attacked Amell, causing the Arrow star to retaliate in the ring, and then sign a WWE contract.

Amell actually looked pretty good in the ring as he jumped the ropes, tackled Rhodes and dropped some elbows.

Maybe Amell will also have a finisher up his sleeve?

SummerSlam airs on the WWE Network starting at 7pm ET/4pm PT.

You can also purchase an Arrow vs. Stardust shirt for charity at represent.com/amellstardust.

The series is said not to be a strict spin-off, but “rather an entirely new project solely focused on the two characters to continue their story.”

Plot details are presently unknown, but Marvel’s Most Wanted is said to follow Mockingbird and Blood and their adventures together.

The report makes note ABC has not made any decisions regarding the premiere date for Marvel’s Most Wanted or how they will introduce the series (i.e through an episode of Agents Of SHIELD).

Marvel presently has Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD Season 3, Agent Carter Season 2 and a John Ridley “top secret” series in development as well.
