Infinity War Star Peter Dinklage Teases His Marvel Future

Image
The Marvel Cinematic Universe started with solo heroes that eventually merged together to create the Avengers. Four heroes currently have their own trilogies within the MCU - Robert Downey Jr.'s Iron Man, Chris Evans' Captain America, Tom Holland's Spider-Man, and Chris Hemsworth's Thor. However, come July 8, 2022, Hemsworth will be set apart from the rest of the group with the arrival of his fourth solo flick,  Thor: Love and Thunder . Thor: Ragnarok  ended with the destruction of Asgard, and  Avengers: Endgame  revealed that the surviving people relocated to Earth under Thor's rule. At the end of the movie, Thor sets out on an adventure with Peter Quill and the Guardians of the Galaxy, naming Tessa Thompson's Valkyrie as King. ADVERTISEMENT Love and Thunder , directed by Taika Waititi, will feature the return of Natalie Portman's Jane Foster. At some point, Thor's former love interest will be transforming into Mighty Tho...

No Way Home Writer Responds to Peter Parker Memory Confusion

Image
Spider-Man: No Way Home  ended in a way no one would have guessed. By the time the credits rolled, not a single soul in the MCU knew who Peter Parker was. That's quite the commitment storytelling-wise, especially in such a large, interconnected world. After all, the film literally started with the entire world knowing that Peter was the webhead. There were news reports, papers, online blogs, social media posts about Peter Parker being Spider-Man—so what happens to all of that? Will things in the universe physically disappear? Stacks of newspapers on the streets of NYC, vanishing into the mirage of Doctor Strange's spell? ADVERTISEMENT The movie ends by giving audiences an answer to where Peter himself ends up but leaves out any solutions to the questions brought up by the intricacies of the spell. But do the writers themselves even have the answers to that myriad of questions? Spider-Man Writers Address The Ending Marvel In an interview with IG...

Who Is Peter Parker's Next Romantic Interest In Spider-Man 4?

Image
Romance has been a cornerstone of Spider-Man stories for decades, with the character having numerous romantic interests in the comics. Many of them came and went, such as Betty Brant, but some, like Gwen Stacy, latched onto Peter Parker's heart like a vice. In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Tom Holland's Peter Parker had his first failure in love with Laura Harrier's Liz Toomes in Spider-Man: Homecoming . Peter was thankfully able to find love with Zendaya's Michelle "MJ" Jones in the sequel and, while Peter's identity as Spider-Man was compromised in  Spider-Man: No Way Home , they still made it work. Sadly, it ended in heartbreak when MJ and everyone else in Peter Parker's life were forced to forget he existed. The last time the audience sees Parker is him all alone in his new apartment, studying for his GED, and taking one final swing as Spider-Man. ADVERTISEMENT Despite how this trilogy ended, fans shouldn't expe...

No Way Home Reveals New Poster Featuring Emotional Peter Parker

Image
Spider-Man: No Way Home  has been in theaters for nearly a month now, and fans are still raving about the once-in-a-lifetime  Endgame -like experience the film provided. Despite the movie featuring many well-known actors from past Spidey flicks, the general consensus is in agreement that Tom Holland gave his strongest performance as the web-slinger to date, showcasing a range of emotions throughout  No Way Home 's runtime. When Holland stepped up to the plate for this movie, he brought every ounce of effort with him. Whether it was the gut-wrenching loss his character had to endure with Aunt May's tragic death, the light-hearted quips that Spider-Man is known for, or the intimate relationship between himself and Zendaya's MJ, Holland's best was on display. ADVERTISEMENT The themes of dealing with loss and consequences are clearly the basis of  No Way Home 's story. There are many times the character is beaten down to the point where h...

Zendaya Explains Peter & MJ’s Role Reversal In Spider-Man: No Way Home

Image
Spider-Man: No Way Home is finally here after over two years of waiting for a resolution to Far From Home . Last audiences saw Tom Holland’s Spider-Man, Mysterio’s insurance policy had just been released to the world, and everyone learned the truth: “Spider-Man's name… is Peter Parker.” Little did the hero know how insane his life would get, and neither did fans. It would have been impossible to see what was coming next. If someone told the world five years ago that they’d eventually be getting a movie where Tom Holland’s Spider-Man fights Alfred Molina’s Doc Ock, Willem Dafoe’s Green Goblin kills Marisa Tomei’s Aunt May, and Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield enter the MCU through Doctor Strange’s portal, they’d probably have them committed. ADVERTISEMENT Yet, it exists. It also brought with it one of the darkest conclusions to a live-action Spider-Man story yet. Peter tells Strange to cast the spell of forgetting to save the Multiverse, and in doi...

No Way Home Writers Reveal Implications of Peter Parker Ending

Image
Spider-Man: No Way Home  is the latest box office hit for Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures. The movie has surpassed the $1 billion mark at the global box office and continues to climb despite being released during a global pandemic.  No Way Home 's success can be largely attributed to the concept of the Multiverse, which brought back past Spider-Man villains and even the former web-slingers themselves for the first time in years. No Way Home  served as the third solo film for Tom Holland's Peter Parker in the MCU, rounding out the teenage character's high school years and establishing his origin story for the future. The hype surrounding the film prior to its release was second-to-none, due to the rumors and speculation that Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield would be returning after a 14 and seven-year hiatus, respectively. ADVERTISEMENT The film still found a way to exceed all expectations, as many fans are claiming it to be among the best m...

Spider-Man Movie Writer Explains How Tom Holland's Peter Differs From Tobey & Andrew's

Image
After months of rumors, speculation, and leaks, Spider-Man: No Way Home is out in the world and all its secrets have been revealed. The third MCU Spidey film has certainly lived up to the hype having broken pandemic box office records and having satisfied fans with the introduction of a Multiverse of heroes that builds on Sony's previous Spider-Man movies. While Spider-Man: No Way Home may be Tom Holland's third solo Spider-Man movie, it also happens to focus on three Spider-Men. Legacy Spider-Man actors Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield proved all the rumors to be true when they appeared mid-way through  Spider-Man: No Way Home . ADVERTISEMENT While Garfield and Maguire's roles in the film may not have come as much of a surprise after months of speculation, what was more surprising was how integral the two Spider-Men were to the film's story. Interviews with Spider-Man: No Way Home' s screenwriters have revealed that both Maguir...
