Into the Spider-Verse 3 Title Officially Revealed

Image
As great as  Spider-Man: No Way Home  was, there's another Spidey Multiverse movie that ranks among some of the best films ever for many fans:  Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse . The film saw Miles Morales take over the role of Spider-Man after the untimely death of Peter Parker, only to get pulled into a Kingpin-led scheme that brought several other Spider-People over into his dimension. Critics and fans alike raved about the film, and it's become something of a modern classic. Needless to say, many are looking forward to its sequel, Across the Spider-Verse , which was sadly recently delayed until June 2, 2023. ADVERTISEMENT As disappointing as the news may be, Sony just revealed at CinemaCon that the project is set to have 240 characters, explore 6 different universes, and it has roughly 1,000 people working on it—so they have a lot of work to do. Hopefully it lives up to the massive hype which will have boiled to a breaking point by the time ...

Venom 3 Officially Greenlit By Sony

Following the amazing critical and financial success from Spider-Man: No Way Home , Sony Pictures continues working to expand its own cache of Spider-Man movies outside of the MCU. Before the critical and financial letdown from Morbius and ahead of Madame Web and Kraven the Hunter , this venture started with Tom Hardy’s Venom movies in 2018 and 2021. Hardy's first outing as Eddie Brock and his symbiotic alien best friend shocked the world, earning more than $850 million at the global box office along with an 81% Audience Score on Rotten Tomatoes. Three years later, Venom: Let There Be Carnage helped bring the global box office back to prominence with a $90 million opening weekend haul, the best non- No Way Home total of the year. ADVERTISEMENT With both movies having pulled in enough success to compete with other major names in the superhero genre, it seems to be only a matter of time before this duo becomes a full trilogy. Now, after a brief sto...

Doctor Strange 2 Now Officially Banned In Multiple Countries

Image
Marvel Studios now approaches the finish line for the release of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness , a feat that is certainly cause for celebration thanks to this sequel’s scale and expectations. However, even with a story that breaks the Multiverse open and introduces potentially dozens of new characters, the lead-up to its debut hasn’t come without its hiccups. Particularly in Phase 4 of the MCU, the franchise has made a more concerted effort than ever toward bringing much-needed representation to the big and small screen. This started with Phastos being portrayed as gay in last year’s Eternals , and Doctor Strange 2 will continue that trend, but it’s clear that parts of the world still have progress to make in this area. ADVERTISEMENT Just the other day, Saudi Arabia banned the release of Doctor Strange 2 in its theaters due to America Chavez being shown as gay on-screen; she’s a member of the LGBTQIA+ community in the comics as well. Now,...

Doctor Strange 2 Extra Footage Officially Released

Image
The next film fans will see from Marvel Studios is  Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness . While there will have been a five-month wait since  Spider-Man: No Way Home  last year, if the trailers are any indication, those months of anticipation are sure to be worth it. Given how great the Multiverse was for the web-slinger, the opportunities are endless for Benedict Cumberbatch's next adventure. The latest trailer showed plenty of footage, including Patrick Stewart's return, some mysterious Ultron bots, Elizabeth Olsen's Wanda Maximoff going crazy, and Strange having some weird nightmares. ADVERTISEMENT Even with everything, the recent teaser showed fans the original TV spot that aired during the Super Bowl has never been officially released online. Those precious thirty seconds contained even more new footage, which audiences have only been able to re-experience via bootleg copies on YouTube. Thankfully, that's now changed. Extra...

No Way Home’s Blu-ray & Digital Release Dates Officially Announced

Image
Spider-Man: No Way Home  has been dominating the box office ever since its worldwide premiere, with the film slowly climbing up the box office ranks while also breaking records along the way. Directed by Jon Watts, the Tom Holland-led threequel pushes the concept of the Multiverse to the forefront by bringing back multiple villains from previous Spider-Man films while also featuring a rare team-up between the MCU's hero, Tobey Maguire's web-slinger, and Andrew Garfield's web-crawler.  So far, the movie is currently playing in theaters worldwide, but fans would agree that they are already highly anticipating its home media release.  ADVERTISEMENT Initially, a listing from Vudu revealed that No Way Home will be available on digital on February 28, 2022. However, a listing from the Microsoft Store unveiled that it was available for digital on March 1, 2022 instead.  Now, Sony placed the conflicting reports to rest due to an official announceme...

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...
