James Gunn Debunks Report About Bradley Cooper’s Marvel Future

Image
It’s been a good stretch of time since fans have seen the Guardians of the Galaxy in action, with the last occasion being in Avengers: Endgame . So when can audiences expect to see them next? The band of misfits is set to pop up next in the upcoming Thor: Love and Thunder film, followed by Guardians of the Galaxy Holiday Special and Vol. 3 . With all the appearances that the group has had over the last few years, there is no doubt the gang is good friends off the screen. However, recently Guardians director James Gunn revealed an interesting tidbit to the world: neither Van Diesel nor Bradley Cooper, who have voiced Groot and Rocket repetitively, have ever stepped foot onto one of his sets. ADVERTISEMENT After putting that information out in the world, the inevitable happened: it was misinterpreted. Thankfully, Gunn’s active Twitter habits were there to save the day. False Reports of Cooper and Diesel’s Involvement Marvel Guardians of the Galaxy Vol....

Image
Benedict Cumberbatch is only a short time away from kicking off Marvel Studios' Phase 4 theatrical efforts with Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness . After appearing in the last two Avengers movies and an Avengers-level solo movie in Spider-Man: No Way Home , the MCU veteran is ready to lead the way in his own massive solo sequel. Doctor Strange 2 will see Strange deal with everything the Multiverse can throw at him, from other-worldly visitors to a Scarlet Witch that's seemingly more powerful than ever. This all comes during a time when the Avengers are largely broken up as a team after defeating Thanos in Avengers: Endgame , and there are no signs pointing to when they may assemble again. ADVERTISEMENT An early synopsis for Doctor Strange 2 teased Strange's status within the Avengers hierarchy, particularly now that Captain America and Iron Man are no longer around for the team. However, Cumberbatch recently revealed that this s...

Marvel Boss Debunks Rumors About Doctor Strange 2 Director Problems

Image
Scott Derrickson was first announced as the director of  Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness  in 2018 after first taking the reins on 2016's Doctor Strange . At San Diego Comic-Con 2019, Multiverse of Madness was revealed to be an MCU movie that would make fans jump, mainly due to Derrickson being a horror director at heart.  However, in January 2020, Derrickson departed the project. C. Robert Cargill, co-writer of the original  Doctor Strange  film, later revealed in a May 2021 interview that  "creative differences"  were the main reason behind the exit, although nobody elaborated any further on the news:  ADVERTISEMENT "It was creative differences. [Scott Derrickson] wanted to do one movie, and Marvel wanted to do another movie." Although the veteran filmmaker left the director's chair, Derrickson is still attached to the project as its executive producer. Derrickson  reassured fans that he is very happy with his ...

Following his impressive run with DC's Peacemaker on HBO Max, director James Gunn is now fully back on board with Marvel Studios for Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 . Coming with that return to Marvel Studios will be yet another round of catchy music in the Guardians threequel - a defining trait of Gunn's iconic directorial style.  Fans really wanted to taste it with Gunn's latest stroke of musical genius as he used Wig Wam's "Do Ya Wanna Taste It" as the opening intro music for Peacemaker .

Disney Officially Debunks Moon Knight Release Rumor

Image
MCU fans may be waiting to have their super-powered thirst quenched, but they will soon be drinking from a fire hose of content. Kicking off Marvel Studios' 2022 calendar is  Moon Knight  on Disney+. The streaming series will introduce a new kind of hero to the MCU in Oscar Isaac's Steven Grant. Grant suffers from dissociative identity disorder and becomes plagued by memories of living another life, one of mercenary-like crime-fighting. The gritty MCU show premieres on March 30, but the exact details of that debut are still up in the air. It has been long rumored that  Moon Knight  would kick things off with two episodes on Disney+ to start Isaac's story off with a bang. ADVERTISEMENT This was assumed due to many believing Disney would want to ensure that the MCU project would not overlap with a May 4th premiere of  Obi-Wan Kenobi . Well, with the recent news that  Obi-Wan  would in fact debut on May 25, 2022, that dual episode premiere of  M...

Multiverse of Madness Report Debunks Scary Scarlet Witch Rumors

Image
Despite all the chaos and surprises that Spider-Man: No Way Home  delivered, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness  looks to be Marvel Studios' biggest venture since the record-breaking  Avengers: Endgame.  With both Benedict Cumberbatch's titular sorcerer and Elizabeth Olsen's Scarlet Witch coming back, the heroic cast was already looking stacked. But the most recent trailer has made clear the immense scale of the Multiverse romp between Ultron Bots and the return of Patrick Stewart's Charles Xavier. While fans' attention may be focussed on all the cameos and game-changing events  Multiverse of Madness  promises, there's far more to the long-awaited sequel than just that. Ever since its initial conception, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige has promised it will be the MCU's first scary film and, with veteran horror director Sam Raimi at the helm, it appears set to deliver on expectations. ADVERTISEMENT Even with assur...

The movie's second full trailer came before the start of Super Bowl LVI, instantly breaking the internet in the process. With this movie tackling stories from multiple properties, including WandaVision and Loki from Disney+, the sequel could be something massive in the MCU's legacy. Both of the movie's two full trailers have provided plenty of Easter eggs and opportunities for fans to predict what's coming, particularly regarding ties to other entries in Phase 4. ADVERTISEMENT Although the headliner right now is Patrick Stewart's likely comeback as Professor X, the second trailer also provided a tease for how Doctor Strange 2 follows up on Wanda Maximoff's solo story. This came with a look at two different Wandas in her Westview home from WandaVision , confirming that the Hex-based realit...

Doctor Strange 2 Trailer Debunks MCU What If Theory

Image
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness  is mere months away and MCU fans cannot wait. The Multiversal adventure is being directed by Marvel veteran Sam Raimi, and is supposedly set to feature a flurry of cameos from across super-powered realities. This collection of characters includes Patrick Stewart's Professor X, Captain Carter, and a couple different versions of Doctor Strange.  Among these is what some believe to be the version of Marvel's good Doctor seen in  What If...? , known as Strange Supreme. The character made his debut in last Fall's MCU animated series and served as one of the main protagonists of the alternate reality adventure.  ADVERTISEMENT Now with Captain Carter seemingly confirmed to be making the jump from the animated world into live-action, it didn't seem like too much of a jump to assume this new Strange was also from the streaming series. As things turn out, that may not be the case.  Strange Supreme No Mo...
