Synopsis: SUPERGIRL is an action-adventure drama based on the DC Comics character Kara Zor-El (Melissa Benoist), Superman’s (Kal-El) cousin who, after 12 years of keeping her powers a secret on Earth, decides to finally embrace her superhuman abilities and be the hero she was always meant to be. Twelve-year-old Kara escaped the doomed planet Krypton with her parents’ help at the same time as the infant Kal-El. Protected and raised on Earth by her foster family, the Danvers, Kara grew up in the shadow of her foster sister, Alex (Chyler Leigh), and learned to conceal the phenomenal powers she shares with her famous cousin in order to keep her identity a secret. Years later at 24, Kara lives in National City assisting media mogul and fierce taskmaster Cat Grant (Golden Globe Award winner Calista Flockhart), who just hired the Daily Planet’s former photographer, James Olsen (Mehcad Brooks), as her new art director. However, Kara’s days of keeping her talents a secret are over when Hank Henshaw (David Harewood), head of a super-secret agency where her sister also works, enlists her to help them protect the citizens of National City from sinister threats. Though Kara will need to find a way to manage her newfound empowerment with her very human relationships, her heart soars as she takes to the skies as Supergirl to fight crime.

Watch the first episode of Machinima’s new digital series Justice League: Gods and Monster Chronicles.

Info:

From visionary producer and animator Bruce Timm (Batman: The Animated Series,Superman: The Animated Series), Justice League: Gods and Monsters Chronicles turns the DC Universe upside-down. In this dark, alternate world, telling the good guys from the bad guys is never easy: Superman is not the son of Jor-El, he’s the son of General Zod; Wonder Woman is not from peaceful Themyscira, but rather the warring nation of Ares; and Batman is more vampire-bat than man…and he’s not Bruce Wayne. It is unclear if our greatest heroes are here to protect us…or to rule us. With Season 1 set to launch in June, Machinima, Blue Ribbon Content and DC Entertainment have already begun development on Season 2, a 10-episode follow-up to the initial limited series.

The Justice League: Gods and Monsters animated movie will also be available July 28th.

Constantine Officially Over

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:20895:]]

Constantine is officially cancelled.

Following NBC not renewing the series for a second season, showrunner Daniel Cerone released the following statement that states no other network has picked up Constantine.

I promised I’d share news when I had it — sadly, that news is not good. The cast and writers of Constantine are being released from their contracts. The studio tried to find a new home for the show, for which we’re forever grateful, but those efforts didn’t pan out. I’m sorry, I wasn’t provided any information on the attempts to sell the show elsewhere. All I can report is that the show is over. 

Many ingredients went into this TV series. From the dedicated cast that breathed these characters to life, led by Matt Ryan as the comic-made-flesh embodiment of John Constantine, to the exceptionality talented crew that put unreal images on screen, to the original Hellblazer writers and artists who gifted us a universe. 

As a general principle, writers don’t choose a writing career to achieve stardom. Whatever demons or insecurities drove them to find freedom of expression through written words generally keeps writers comfortably obscure behind their words. Nor do people choose writing as a means to financial freedom. I’d venture to guess that most who set out to write professionally never receive a paycheck for their hopeful scribbles or key strokes. 

In fact, nobody I know ever chose a writing career — it chose them. You write because that’s what you do. Like breathing, it just happens and you have to do it and you just hope that someday somebody out there notices what you’re trying to say. 

If that’s the dream of writers, than the writers of Constantine lived the dream, because we’re leaving behind wild and passionate fans who believe in and were moved by what we tried to do. To leave such a significant, dedicated and active fan base on the table — that’s the real sadness. You all deserve many years of the series we set out to make, and we’re disappointed that we couldn’t deliver that to you. The good news is that Constantine will live on for years in many more forms. But our time as caretakers has ended. 

Thank you for letting us in.

Jason Statham Rumored For Bullseye In Daredevil Season 2

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:20881:]]

Update: Marvel TV is stating there is no truth to the rumor of Jason Statham.

Update #2: Jason Statham has no ambition for comic book movies and says Marvel isn’t authentic.

 

It’s rumored that Jason Statham is being eyed by Marvel to play Bullseye in Season 2 of the Daredevil Netflix series.

According to Latino Review, Statham has even took a meeting with Marvel, and at one time, Statham was in talks for a DD movie reboot over at Fox.

The same report also mentions potential villains for Daredevil Season 2 with Mr. Fear, Elektra (seemingly already confirmed) – and get this – Spider-Man villain Mysterio.

It would be rather interesting to have Statham featured on the Netflix series as he is a pretty big-named action star. The quesion is: Is Statham too big?

Daredevil Season 2 is currently in devlopment and will be released in 2016.

26-Episode Animated Mega Man Series Announced

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:20840:]]

Dentsu Entertainment USA has partnered with Man of Action Entertainment to develop a 26-episode animated series based on Capcom’s iconic video game franchise Mega Man for the global market, it was announced today by Yuichi Kinoshita, President and Chief Executive Officer, Dentsu Entertainment USA, Inc.  Under terms of the deal, Dentsu Entertainment holds worldwide broadcast and licensing rights for all aspects of the new Mega Man TV series. 

Dentsu handpicked Man Of Action Entertainment, creators of Ben 10 and Generator Rex, to create, write and executive produce the all-new Mega Man animated series. Disney/Marvel’s Academy Award-winning feature Big Hero 6 utilized the characters and team created by Man of Action, the bi-coastal creative studio and writers’ collective formed by creators and acclaimed comic book writers Joe Casey, Joe Kelly, Duncan Rouleau and Steven T. Seagle.  Marvel called upon Man of Action to produce and write Ultimate Spider-Man and Marvel’s Avengers Assemble for their successful launches on Disney XD.  The new Mega Man series has a target air date of 2017, coinciding with the franchise’s 30th anniversary.

“We are very excited about the opportunity to introduce an all-new Mega Man to loyal fans and kids,” said Kinoshita, commenting on the deal.  “Having a celebrated character from Japan reimagined by Man Of Action is the ideal project for Dentsu Entertainment USA.”

Man of Action’s Rouleau said, “The 1990s Mega Man TV series was cool and different than other series targeted at kids during that time.  It featured great action, but also brought the laughs.  Mega Man is a character that is even more relevant for today’s kids and we are really looking forward to creating something new that still respects the long tradition of the character.”

The Mega Man franchise is grounded in a series of video games, first launched in 1987, featuring battles fought by the eponymous blue robot protagonist and an ongoing cast of allies and enemies.  The Mega Man multiverse has spawned over 130 video games on multiple gaming systems, selling over 30 million copies worldwide, as well as a plethora of toys, comics and collectibles.  A highly-rated Mega Man TV series was popular in the USA in the 1990s and aired for several seasons.

Watch: Game Of Thrones Epic “Hardhome” White Walker Battle

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:20822:]]

Sunday’s episode of Game Of Thrones saw an epic battle take place between the army of the White Walkers and the free men of the North in addition to Jon Snow and his Crows.

The episode was the best of the season to date (finally), with the battle lasting almost twenty minutes long.

Kit Harington, who plays Jon Snow, told Huff Post the scene took two weeks to film with the cast and crew “cold and wet” as they “painstakingly filmed the scene amid terrible conditions.”

“All the money on ‘Thrones’ is spent on the actual sequence or finishing the thing. None of it’s spent on the actors’ luxury. So we had this tiny cast tent with a river running through it, which is fine,” Harington said. “You just muck in with ‘Thrones.’ It was great.

“The really amazing bits were the bits where you said, ‘Okay, now this giant is going to burst out of the hut, and then all these undead are going to fall off the cliff,’ and those are the bits you obviously can’t see. So you kind of really geek out about that stuff, and then getting to watch it afterward is really, really amazing,” he said.

Stephen Amell Rumored To Be Wrestling At WWE’s SummerSlam 2015

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:20804:]]

While WWE’s Sting (6’3″ 250lbs) may be just a bit outside of Stephen Amell’s range, that doesn’t mean the Arrow will be sitting in the stands come SummerSlam.

Stephen Amell is rumored to be appearing at WWE’s big SummerSlam event on August 23rd at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, NY.

His opponent?

Stardust Cody Rhodes!

Recently on RAW, Amell and Rhodes (listed at 6’1 216 lbs) exchanged words, which continued on their social networks and WWE.

Rhodes got in Amell’s face on RAW, with Amell telling Stardust to tread carefeully or he’ll back back. Stardust then followed up on WWE.com calling out Amell.

Stephen Amell has been pretty vocal about how he is a big of a fan of wrestling, and that he wouldn’t mind guest hosting – or even suiting up for the squared circle.

The gossip site Hollywood Life is now saying Amell will duke it out with Rhodes during SummerSlam – and get this – that Amell may even don his Arrow persona while doing so.

Obviously, it could be just a big rumor, but it’s not unheard of for celebrities to participate in various WWE matches and shows. Arnold Schwarzenegger has taken on Triple H, and Shaq, Floyd Mayweather Jr., Snoop Dogg, Ozzy Osbourne, Jerry Springer, Flavor Flav, Mike Tyson and others have all be a part of events.

Update: Both Stephen Amell and Cody Rhodes respond to rumor. See tweets below.

Neil Gaiman Comments On One Million Moms Boycott Of Lucifer TV Series

[[wysiwyg_imageupload:20471:]]

WB, DC and Fox are launching the new Lucifer TV series next year.

Now with the recent release of the trailer and synopsis, a controversy has ensued.

As the show is about Lucifer potentially being a good guy, “One Million Moms” have stepped in to start a petition to get Fox to cancel the show.

The petition presently has just over 11,000 signatures.

Now the petition has caught the eye of Neil Gaiman, who is known for writing Sandman where the Lucifer character debuted. Gaiman offers “One Million Moms” had similar issues with Sandman, but obviously that didn’t work out.

Ah. It seems like only yesterday (but it was 1991) that the “Concerned Mothers of America” announced that they were boycotting SANDMAN because it contained Lesbian, Gay, Bi and Trans characters. It was Wanda that upset them most: the idea of a Trans Woman in a comic book… They told us they were organising a boycott of SANDMAN, which they would only stop if we wrote to the American Family Association and promised to reform.

I wonder if they noticed it didn’t work last time, either…

Regarding Lucifer, from the synopsis below, it seems as if the Lord of Hell may be seeking redemption. It’s assumed “One Million Moms” must not believe in forgiveness?

Lucifer premiers on Fox in 2016.

Synopsis:

The Devil has come to Los Angeles…

Based upon the characters created by Neil Gaiman, Sam Kieth and Mike Dringenberg for DC Entertainment’s Vertigo imprint, LUCIFER is the story of the original fallen angel. Bored and unhappy as the Lord of Hell, LUCIFER MORNINGSTAR (Tom Ellis, “Merlin”) has abandoned his throne and retired to L.A., where he owns Lux, an upscale nightclub.

Charming, charismatic and devilishly handsome, Lucifer is enjoying his retirement, indulging in a few of his favorite things – wine, women and song – when a beautiful pop star is brutally murdered outside of Lux. For the first time in roughly 10 billion years, he feels something awaken deep within him as a result of this murder. Compassion? Sympathy? The very thought disturbs him – as well as his best friend and confidante, MAZIKEEN aka MAZE (Lesley-Ann Brandt, “The Librarians”), a fierce demon in the form of a beautiful young woman.

The murder attracts the attention of LAPD homicide detective CHLOE DANCER (Lauren German, “Chicago Fire”), who initially is dismissive of Lucifer. But she becomes intrigued by his talent for drawing out people’s secrets and his desire to dispense justice, doling out punishment to those who deserve it. As they work together to solve the pop star’s murder, Lucifer is struck by Chloe’s inherent goodness. Accustomed to dealing with the absolute worst of humanity, Lucifer is intrigued by Chloe’s apparent purity and begins to wonder if there’s hope for his own soul yet.

At the same time, God’s emissary, the angel AMENADIEL (DB Woodside, “Suits,” “24”), has been sent to Los Angeles to convince Lucifer to return to the underworld…can the Devil incarnate be tempted toward the side of Good, or will his original calling pull him back toward Evil?
