WESTWORLD: We All Have Our Role To Play In The New Promo For Season 3, Episode 2: “The Winter Line”

SUPERGIRL: Alex Danvers Suits Up In The New Promo For Season 5, Episode 16: “Alex in Wonderland”

Image

A few weeks back, Chyler Leigh shared an interesting photo of her, in character as Alex Danvers, wearing her very own Super suit and while she opted not to share any major details then, it looks like next week’s promo has confirmed that Alex will indeed be suiting up as National City’s new Girl of Steel, albeit with a slight twist.

According to the description, Alex will use the Obsidian lenses to take a day off and visit a virtual rendition of National City, except in this new reality, she’s Supergirl instead of Kara. Everything seems to be going well too until the lenses malfunction and trap her inside while also simultaneously warping her personality, which is not good news for anyone.

“Alex in Wonderland” – (9:00-10:00 p.m. ET) (Content Rating TBD) (HDTV)

ALEX TAKES ON A NEW ROLE – Alex (Chyler Leigh) uses a pair of Obsidian contact lenses to visit a virtual National City where she takes on a whole new persona. Meanwhile, Kelly (Azie Tesfai) helps William (Staz Nair) investigate Lex. Kara (Melissa Benoist) deals with difficult news. Tawnia McKiernan directed the episode with story by Rob Wright and teleplay by Jess Kardos & Mariko Tamaki (#516). Original airdate 3/22/2020.

BATWOMAN: Things Get Crazy In The New Promo For Season 1, Episode 16: “Through the Looking-Glass”

Image

Next week, on Batwoman, when Alice (Rachel Skarsten) needs to free someone from the depths of Arkham Asylum, she enlists the help of her sister Kate (Ruby Rose) to enact a high-stakes prison break that ultimately leaves Kate questioning all of her natural instincts.

Meanwhile, back on the homefront, Luke (Camrus Johnson) gets some seriously upsetting news.

“Through the Looking-Glass” – (8:00-9:00 p.m. ET) (Content Rating TBD) (HDTV)

FACING THE PAST – Kate (Ruby Rose) begins to question her instincts and Luke (Camrus Johnson) gets upsetting news. Alice (Rachel Skarsten) seeks her sister’s help with a special task. Also starring Dougray Scott, Meagan Tandy, Nicole Kang and Camrus Johnson. Sudz Sutherland directed the episode written by Nancy Kiu (#116). Original airdate 3/22/2020. Every episode of BATWOMAN will be available to stream on CWTV.com and The CW App the day after broadcast for free and without a subscription, log-in or authentication required.

Kate Kane never planned to be Gotham’s new vigilante. Three years after Batman mysteriously disappeared, Gotham is a city in despair. Without the Caped Crusader, the Gotham City Police Department was overrun and outgunned by criminal gangs. Enter Jacob Kane and his military-grade Crows Private Security, which now protects the city with omnipresent firepower and militia. Years before, Jacob’s first wife and daughter were killed in the crossfire of Gotham crime. He sent his only surviving daughter, Kate Kane, away from Gotham for her safety. After a dishonorable discharge from military school and years of brutal survival training, Kate returns home when the Alice in Wonderland gang targets her father and his security firm, by kidnapping his best Crow officer Sophie Moore. Although remarried to wealthy socialite Catherine Hamilton-Kane, who bankrolls the Crows, Jacob is still struggling with the family he lost, while keeping Kate — the daughter he still has — at a distance. But Kate is a woman who’s done asking for permission. In order to help her family and her city, she’ll have to become the one thing her father loathes — a dark knight vigilante. With the help of her compassionate stepsister, Mary, and the crafty Luke Fox, the son of Wayne Enterprises’ tech guru Lucius Fox, Kate Kane continues the legacy of her missing cousin, Bruce Wayne, as Batwoman. Still holding a flame for her ex-girlfriend, Sophie, Kate uses everything in her power to combat the dark machinations of the psychotic Alice, who’s always somewhere slipping between sane and insane. Armed with a passion for social justice and a flair for speaking her mind, Kate soars through the shadowed streets of Gotham as Batwoman. But don’t call her a hero yet. In a city desperate for a savior, she must first overcome her own demons before embracing the call to be Gotham’s symbol of hope.

Ruby Rose as Kate Kane/Batwoman
Rachel Skarsten as Alice
Meagan Tandy as Sophie Moore
Nicole Kang as Mary Hamilton
Camrus Johnson as Luke Fox
Elizabeth Anweis as Catherine Hamilton-Kane

WONDER WOMAN 1984 Iron Studios Statue Offers An Incredibly Detailed Look At The Golden Eagle Armor

Image

As of right now, the plan is for Wonder Woman 1984 to be released in theaters this June. Thanks to the Coronavirus, things could change over the next few weeks, of course, but you can’t blame the studio for wanting to keep the DC Comics adaptation in its prime summer release date slot.

There’s a lot to look forward to in the Wonder Woman sequel, but seeing Gal Gadot’s Diana Prince take to the skies in her Kingdom Come-inspired Golden Eagle armour is bound to be a highlight!

Thanks to Iron Studios, we now have a much better look at that. Set to retail at $199.99, this is going to be a must-have for fans of the Amazon Warrior, and with two different heads (one with a helmet, and one without), we may now have a better idea of how the hero is going to look in action.

These images are well worth checking out, so hit the “Next” button to look through this gallery!

Image may contain: 1 person, text

Before we get to that awesome Golden Eagle armour, it’s worth noting that the based used here appears to be from some sort of jungle setting.

Comic book fans will be well aware that some of Wonder Woman’s most memorable battles with Cheetah took place in those surroundings, so perhaps this should be taken as confirmation that the same will happen on the big screen?

Image may contain: one or more people and text

Wonder Woman looks absolutely fierce here, and that helmet should definitely protect the hero when she comes to blows with the powerful Cheetah (played by Kristen Wiig).

The prevailing theory among fans is that Diana Prince will wind up being depowered or somehow weakened, hence why she needs to “suit up” to battle her newfound enemy.

It’s not hard to see why so much of the sequel’s marketing campaign is based around Wonder Woman’s Golden Eagle armour.

After all, it makes for an impressive visual, and the hero clearly has a lot of freedom to move around despite being glad in a formidable looking costume you have to believe was probably given to her by the Amazons.

Where Wonder Woman gets this from is hard to say, especially as we have to believe Diana Prince hasn’t returned to Themyscira since leaving her home during World War I.

It’s possible it was hidden elsewhere on Earth, of course, and the movie will definitely have to go some way in explaining why we haven’t seen it before now.

Taking a closer look at the this armour reveals some amazing new details, and it’s an intricate design which definitely leans heavily into that eagle imagery.

The version from the comic books looked great, but this translation to live-action has worked wonderfully.

What do you guys think of Wonder Woman’s Golden Eagle armour? As always, be sure to let us know our thoughts in the comments section below, and stay tuned for more on the movie!

LOKI And WANDAVISION Have Also Been Put On A Two-Week Hiatus Due To Coronavirus Pandemic

Image

Unsurprisingly, Variety has now confirmed that production on The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, Loki, and WandaVision has been put on hold due to the outbreak of the Coronavirus.

Disney made the decision to hit the pause button on its Disney+ TV shows yesterday, and it’s said that those currently in the pre-production phases will continue being worked on “remotely.” That bodes well for their future, but there’s still a lot of uncertainty surrounding what Hollywood will do next depending on how bad things get with this pandemic.

The Falcon and The Winter Soldier was the first to delay production earlier this week due to having to leave Prague. Loki has been filming in Atlanta, while it’s thought that work on WandaVision has pretty much been completed, so it’s likely in-studio scenes which have now been put on hold.

This news comes shortly after Disney decided to suspend production on all its live-action films, including Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings and The Little Mermaid.

As of right now, we have no idea whether this is going to lead to any delays, but WandaVision isn’t set to hit Disney+ until November, and Loki is scheduled for 2021. As for The Falcon and The Winter Soldier, that’s coming our way this August, but it’s entirely possible it will be delayed if these delays continue posing a problem for Hollywood productions.

Stay tuned for updates as we have them!

THE FALCON AND THE WINTER SOLDIER Is Reportedly The Latest Production To Take A Two-Week Hiatus

Image

As is quickly becoming clear, Hollywood is closing down one production at a time thanks to the Coronavirus pandemic. While there have been rumblings that work will continue on Loki as planned this Monday, a Facebook post by Catrett Locke Casting points to The Falcon and The Winter Soldier now taking a two-week hiatus until the end of March.

In their post, the company shares a list of TV shows which have been put on hold, and “Tag Team” is among them. For those of you who may not realise, that’s the production title for the Marvel Studios TV series. “Architect” is Loki‘s working title, and there’s currently no mention of that anywhere.

The Falcon and The Winter Soldier was forced to leave Prague last week due to the spread of Coronavirus, and it’s thought that Marvel Studios was unable to shoot everything they needed to.

Whether this will delay the Disney+ series’ planned premiere on the streaming service is hard to say, but it’s certainly possible depending on how things play out over the coming months. As of right now, Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings has been put on hold, but luckily for Disney, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and other Marvel TV shows don’t shoot until the summer.

Hollywood is definitely in chaos at the moment thanks to this pandemic, but the health of those working on these big and small screen projects is understandably a priority for studios right now.

We’ll share more updates as they continue coming in.

UPDATE: It now appears as if Loki has been postponed for an undisclosed amount of time based on an updated version of this Facebook post.

To check out some huge Black Widow reveals from the latest
issue of Entertainment Weekly, hit the “Next” button below!

Why Kevin Feige Didn’t Want A Straightforward Origin Story

Previous MCU movies have dropped some big hints about Natasha’s past, with references or flashbacks to her first meeting with Hawkeye in Budapest and the time she spent in the Red Room. With that in mind, many fans expected Black Widow to be a straightforward origin story.

Instead, it will be set between the events of Captain America: Civil War and Avengers: Infinity War, a surprising move which means we won’t get to visit the hero’s early years.

“A prequel that simply filled in the blanks of things you already know is not very exciting,” Feige argues. “How does she get her Widow stingers for the first time? How did she learn to do a flip? That doesn’t matter.” It’s a valid point, but many fans were hoping to see all that here!

Natasha Romanoff’s “Family”

Guardian

In the trailers for Black Widow, characters like Melina, Alexei, and Yelena have been described as Natasha’s mother, father, and sister. Avengers: Endgame revealed that she never actually even knew her father’s name, so you probably won’t be surprised to learn that they’re not her real family.

Instead, the site reveals that this foursome went undercover as a family when Natasha was just a child, so they have a lot of history together. Melina Vostokoff is described as being “mysterious” and someone else who trained as Widow, while Yelena Belova is another Red Room alum who Natasha now views as an “estranged little sister.”

Finally, there’s David Habour’s Red Guardian, Russia’s answer to Captain America. “I thought it would be a straightforward action movie,” the actor admits, “and then it wound up being a real character study of a dysfunctional family.”

Scarlett Johansson’s Reaction To That Age Of Ultron Scene

Joss Whedon delved into Black Widow’s Red Room history in Avengers: Age of Ultron when he introduced a romantic element to Natasha’s relationship with Bruce Banner.

That alone was pretty controversial, but something which really angered a lot of fans was the filmmaker’s decision to reveal that the hero had been forced to undergo sterilization years earlier and seemingly viewed herself as a monster as a result. Johansson didn’t have much to say about that, but pointed out that filming those scenes required some movie magic.

“[It was] ironic because I was also really pregnant at the time,” the actress reveals with a laugh.

Why Black Widow Wasn’t Part Of The Infinity Saga

Widow-2

It’s definitely surprising that Black Widow is the movie Marvel Studios has chosen to kick off Phase 4 as Avengers: Endgame set the stage for whole new era of storytelling. However, there’s a good reason why Feige decided against including this spinoff in the series now known as the “Infinity Saga.”

Johansson reveals that she and Feige first discussed the possibility of a Black Widow movie during the press tour for The Avengers as just “a tiny speck on an idea,” and the Marvel Studios President ultimately decided to prioritise Natasha’s story as part of the wider MCU during that period.

“We had been planning the conclusion for the Infinity Saga for the past five or six years, and Natasha’s journey within those films took the priority,” he explains. “The notion of breaking out for a stand-alone film that takes place in the past, for a character that we already knew and were already following, didn’t feel right.”

The MCU’s Female-Led Future

When The Avengers was released in 2012, Black Widow was the MCU’s only female Avenger. Things have changed a lot since then, of course, and the likes of Captain Marvel, Okoye, and the Scarlet Witch have since assembled alongside the rest of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes.

As a result, a female-led superhero movie is no longer a novelty, and Johansson sees that as a good thing. “For anyone who said to me, ‘Oh, this [Black Widow film] should’ve happened five or 10 years ago,’ I’m like, it would not have been as substantial. We just would not have been able to do it. This film is happening now as a result of what’s going on in the zeitgeist, and I think it’s pretty cool.”

The actress believes that just casting female heroes isn’t enough; instead, distinctly female stories should be a pritority (once being told that Black Widow “could be like Bourne, but with a woman” didn’t sit well with her). “I think this character’s strength really lies in her vulnerability and her acceptance of that. She has emotional intelligence that has allowed her to survive without any real superpowers.”

“She’s someone who is a problem-solver. She’s a pragmatic person. I think a lot of those qualities are inherently female.”

Why Cate Shortland Decided To Direct Black Widow

Cate Shortland didn’t have any real interest in directing superhero movies until Black Widow came along, but it sounds like Johansson managed to win her over. “We just bonded over stories about trust and about intimacy and about women surviving,” the filmmaker reveals.

“You didn’t have to be a superhero to identify with a woman who has had a really tough childhood and has survived and has a huge heart and helps other people,” Shortland continues.

Interestingly, Shortland doesn’t sound overly impressed by how Black Widow has previously been portrayed in the MCU. “When I looked at the past films, there’s a lot of sitting outside of the character, so that she is seen and kind of objectified. Oftentimes we don’t really get to see who she is when she’s by herself — who she is when she takes off the action-hero facade.”

How Black Widow Informs The Events Of Avengers: Endgame

Wndgame-Wido

The magazine doesn’t exactly shed a lot of light on Black Widow‘s plot, but notes that Natasha ends up being drawn into a Red Room-related conspiracy which forces the hero reexamine both her history and past trauma (the latest trailer pointed to her wanting to close down the program which transformed her into a spy once and for all).

“I thought it was interesting to explore this part of her life before she rejoins the Avengers, before she makes that ultimate sacrifice,” Johansson explains. “How does she become this full person from all these broken pieces?”

There’s certainly been something of a mixed response over the decision to set Black Widow between Civil War and Infinity War, especially when there’s a desire among fans to dive into her early years. With any luck, we will get to see her meet the likes of Hawkeye and The Winter Soldier for the first time, but time will tell on that front.

Black Widow’s MCU Legacy

We all know how Natasha’s story ends, and with Black Widow likely to be a one-off adventure for the fallen Avenger, what does Johansson hope will be the hero’s legacy moving forward?

“I hope that this film continues pushing that boundary, so that we can actually have more female superheroes who are inherently female, and aren’t just Batman in heels or whatever.”

The future certainly looks bright for female superheroes on the big screen, and there’s no denying that Johansson and her take on Black Widow have been a big part of making that happen.

What The Movie Means To Scarlett Johansson

“This film is very much a result of that journey, my own personal journey,” Johansson says of the decade she’s spent playing this character. “I feel that I probably wasn’t as willing or able to go to the kind of uncomfortable, embarrassing, ugly places before. I think it’s just as you get older, you trust yourself more.”

Despite spending years being badgered about a Black Widow solo movie, the actress admits that she was privately unsure whether that was something she even wanted to happen.

“I was like, I think I’m good,” she admits. “If we [were] going to do this, it had to be creatively fulfilling. I’ve been working for such a long time, and I have to feel like I’m challenged. I don’t want to do the same thing that I’d already done before.”

Scarlett Johansson’s Avengers: Endgame Concern

As we’ve alluded to a few times here, Black Widow made the ultimate sacrifice in Avengers: Endgame when she leapt off that cliff on Vormir to her death to secure the Soul Stone for Hawkeye.

Johansson alluded to an earlier version of the scene which was a lot less personal and featured Thanos’ army chasing the heroes down and forcing Natasha to end her life in the process. However, the actress was concerned that such a dark scene would have upset a lot of younger moviegoers.

“I was thinking, ‘Parents will never forgive us for how these creatures look,'” she said, describing them as an “army of Dementor-type creatures.” As for why it was later reshot by the Russos, Johansson added: “We wanted to leave [the audience] with the weight of that loss and the shock of it.”

THE BATMAN Production Halted In The UK By Warner Bros. Over Coronavirus Concerns

Image

It’s been confirmed today that Warner Bros. has decided to stop production on The Batman.

While there were plans in place for the movie to move from London to Liverpool in an effort to protect those working on the DC Comics adaptation, the ongoing concerns surrounding the Coronavirus mean that a two-week hiatus has been decided as the best course of action.

This is pretty much exactly what every other major studio has decided to do, and the situation will more than likely be reassessed at the end of March. However, considering the fact things are only expected to get worse in the UK (it’s thought they’re about two to four weeks away from where Italy is right now), there’s a chance The Batman could ultimately be heavily impacted by the pandemic.

“Warner Bros. Pictures feature production of The Batman will be on a two-week hiatus starting today,” reads an official statement from Warner Bros. “The studio will continue to monitor the situation closely.”

Variety’s Justin Kroll notes that, “Sources telling me MATRIX still in production as majority of shoot is in soundstage in Berlin where they are taking precautions while KING RICHARD shoot has already been reworked because of bad weather in Los Angeles.” There’s no word on the next Fantastic Beasts movie, but seeing as it was set to start shooting in the UK on Monday, chances are it too will be delayed.

As we mentioned above, it’s seemingly become the norm for productions to go on hiatus until the end of the month, but depending on how bad things get with this pandemic, that could last longer.

We’ll be sure to keep you guys updated as we learn more over the coming days and weeks.

This Year’s Razzie Awards Have Been Postponed/Possibly Canceled Thanks To Coronavirus Pandemic

Image

The Razzie Awards honor the worst that Hollywood has to offer, and was scheduled to take place in the Barnsdall Theatre in Los Angeles tonight. However, despite previous protestations that the show would go on, John Wilson, the co-founder of the awards, has confirmed that the event is now either “canceled/postponed.”

“The Mayor of Los Angeles shut down all city-owned venues where more than 50 people could gather, including our site, The Barnsdall Theatre,” he said in a statement to Deadline. “Without a hall, we could not proceed with the show. But we are hoping to have something to disseminate by tonight – Perhaps even by what had been our original ‘curtain time’ of 8 p.m. tonight (Saturday, March 14). Obviously, if there is no live show, there is nothing to be streamed, either.”

Cats, A Madea Family Funeral, and Rambo: Last Blood were leading the charge in terms of nominations this year, and even though the “winners” are usually announced the day before the Academy Awards, plans chanced this year when the Oscars ended up taking place sooner than expected.

Below is the full list of nominees for the 40th Annual Razzie Awards. When/if the winners will be announced is a mystery, but we do hope they’re revealed to us at some point because the ceremony is usually a blast to follow!

Originally, the plan was for them to be streamed by Comedy Dynamics.

PICARD Showrunner Michael Chabon Wants To Work On An ADAM WARLOCK Movie For Marvel Studios

Image

Picard showrunner is an accomplished writer and novelist, and he even won a Pulitzer Prize for Fiction back in 2001. With that in mind, it’s perhaps not overly surprising that the Star Trek TV series has received such a positive response, but could he be planning a move to another universe?

During a recent Instagram Q&A, Chabon was asked which superheroes he connects with after once penning a draft of Spider-Man 2, and it turns out that he’s a big fan of Adam Warlock!

“So many!” he responded. “Still holding out for that Warlock call from [Kevin Feige].”

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 set the stage for an appearance from Warlock somewhere down the line, but following comments from director James Gunn last year, there’s been a lot of speculation that we won’t actually see the anti-hero make any sort of appearance in Vol. 3.

Believe it or not, Chabon first expressed his admiration for Warlock way back in 2012 when he talked about the character being a dream project for him. Given how well-received Picard has been, though, Marvel Studios would definitely be smart to bring Chabon into the fold for a solo outing featuring this cosmic character (a Disney+ series might not be the worst thing in the world either).

Time will tell on that front, especially as building a “Marvel Cosmic Universe” seems to be less of a priority for Marvel Studios at the moment. Do you guys think Chabon would be a good fit for an Adam Warlock movie or TV show of some sort?

AVENGERS: ENDGAME Star Ross Marquand Ponders His Marvel Cinematic Universe Future As Red Skull

Image

One of Avengers: Infinity War‘s biggest surprises came when we learned that Captain America: The First Avenger villain the Red Skull had been transported to Vormir and forced to guard the Soul Stone. He was ultimately freed by Thanos, and later by Hawkeye (albeit in a different timeline).

Now, the villain’s big screen future is uncertain, but Ross Marquand – who replaced Hugo Weaving as the character in Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame – has some ideas where he could go next.

“[Directors Anthony and Joe Russo] said once the Red Skull is released of the Soul Stone, once Thanos gets it and then once Hawkeye gets it, he’s essentially free,” Marquand explained during a recent interview. “But if we think about it, there’s all these different multiverses now. So in one multiverse, when Thanos frees him, he’s free. I would imagine the first thing he would do if he still has a vendetta, or if any part of him still has ambition, would go back to Earth.”

“Maybe he wants to enact revenge, maybe he wants to keep his diabolical plan going,” Marquand continued. “Or maybe he doesn’t care at all. I imagine when you’re graced with infinite wisdom, you’re also graced, or cursed, with infinite pain and suffering. So he’s probably, I would imagine on one level, he’s over it. He doesn’t need to conquer anybody, because he’s [unliving].”

If the Red Skull is indeed free now, then it would make sense for him to return to Earth and seek vengeance on those that wronged him. However, as Marquand would go on to point out, it’s possible that he now sees himself above such small matters, especially after gaining the wisdom of the Infinity Stones and spending so many years guarding one on Vormir.

As for whether The Walking Dead actor has been asked to return, he noted: “I haven’t, but I would jump at the chance to do it again. I think that role obviously belongs to Hugo, he is the person that originated it and I loved what he did with that. If his heart is in a different place and he no longer wants to return, I would truly again be honored to play that character again.”

With any luck, we will get to see more of this iconic villain in the MCU because there are definitely stories left to be told with him. However, now Steve Rogers is no longer around, perhaps that would be better explored in a film revolving around Captain America’s journey through time.
