  • Robert Downey Jr. Says ‘Never Say Never’ About Iron Man Return

    Robert Downey Jr. Says ‘Never Say Never’ About Iron Man Return

    Avenger’s star Robert Downey Jr is open to suiting up for a return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Tony Stark\Iron Man.

    Downey concluded an 11-year tenure as the armored Avenger in 2019’s box office-breaking Avengers: Endgame, where Stark sacrifices himself to defeat Thanos (Josh Brolin) and save the ever-expanding Marvel universe. After confirming in a December interview that he was moving on from Marvel, saying he’s “done all [he] could” with the franchise’s flagship character after a “creatively satisfying” reign launched with 2008’s Iron Man, Downey is leaving the door open to step back into the MCU.

    During a recent interview with GQ, Downey, who has was asked how Holland’s new film, Cherry, might affect his career. To which, he said, “Look, Tom won’t be playing Spider-Man when he’s 37. At least I hope not. And when you’re in the MCU, there’s a feeling of all life beginning with it and ending it. But there’s life outside too. I can confirm this. Been there, done that, got the T-shirt. It’s funny, I bumped into Keanu [Reeves] the other day, somewhere in Malibu, I think, and he told me he’d just been filming The Matrix again; he’d stepped back into that world that he once occupied. I asked him what it felt like: ‘Like being in Australia.’

    What I am saying is there was a Spider-Man before Tom Holland and there will be a Spider-Man after Tom Holland. That’s facts, Tommo. Sorry.”

    On being asked the much-awaited question about his return to the MCU, he said, “Well, I have alighted, for now. Real-world to save. But never say never.”

    Last year, the Iron Man star did admit he would return to the MCU on one condition.

    Appearing on The Joe Rogan Experience, the comedian host asked the actor: “Is the door to Iron Man totally closed because I don’t believe it is? You guys can go through time now. You’ve already opened up that door.”

    Downey Jr said: “There would have to be a super compelling argument and a series of events that made it obvious… We all have to do what [Marvel Studios boss] Kevin Feige says.”

  • Marvel Finally Reveals Real ‘Spider-Man 3’ Title

    Marvel Finally Reveals Real ‘Spider-Man 3’ Title

    Marvel has revealed that “Spider-Man: No Way Home” is the offical title for third “Spider-Man” film.

    The revelation comes after Holland and his co-stars set the Internet humming on Tuesday night with their own fake titles for the film, including Spider-Man: Phone Home, Spider-Man: Home Slice and Spider-Man-Homewrecker.

    Stars Tom Holland, Zendaya and Jacob Batalon revealed the title as “Spider-Man: No Way Home” as you can see in the video below posted Wednesday:

    “Spider-Man: No Way Home” also features Benedict Cumberbatch as Marvel mainstay Doctor Strange and is rumored to delve into the multiverse as it will also unite separate generations of Spider-Man films. Alfred Molina, who played Doctor Octopus in Tobey Maguire’s Spider-Man 2, will appear. So will Jamie Foxx, playing Electro, the villain he portrayed in 2014’s The Amazing Spider-Man 2, which starred Andrew Garfield. The new title adds fuel to the multiverse speculation.

    Spider-Man: No Way Home Arrives in theaters on December 17, 2021.

  • Black Panther Series is coming to Disney Plus

    Black Panther Series is coming to Disney Plus

    The Walt Disney Company has announced that a new Disney+ series is in development based on the Kingdom of Wakanda to be helmed by “Black Panther” director Ryan Coogler.

    The TV series set in the “Black Panther” kingdom of Wakanda will be developed as part of a five-year, exclusive television deal the Walt Disney Co. announced Monday.

    Coogler wrote and directed 2018’s “Black Panther,” a box-office hit that turned Chadwick Boseman into a superstar. Chadwick died in August of cancer.

    “Ryan Coogler is a singular storyteller whose vision and range have made him one of the standout filmmakers of his generation,” Bob Iger, executive chairman of The Walt Disney Company, said in a statement. “With Black Panther, Ryan brought a groundbreaking story and iconic characters to life in a real, meaningful and memorable way, creating a watershed cultural moment. We’re thrilled to strengthen our relationship and look forward to telling more great stories with Ryan and his team.”

    Coogler is currently working on a follow-up to “Black Panther,” which is set to be released July 8, 2022.

    Marvel Studios and Disney announced back in December that the role played by the late Chadwick Boseman would not be recast and, instead, the companies would move forward with a sequel that would “honor the legacy” that the actor helped build.
