Doctor Strange 2 Will Feature Nightmare


Marvel Studios has not yet revealed any plans to follow up the mystical adventures of Doctor Stephen Strange but it seems that a sequel to Doctor Strange is already in works. In a recent interview, the co-writer of MCU’s Doctor Strange, C. Robert Cargill revealed that he and the director Scott Derrickson have already decided the villain for the sequel.

In a recent Q&A session, C. Robert Cargill hinted that Nightmare will be the main villain if the sequel to Doctor Strange gets a green light from Marvel Studios. Nightmare, who is the demonic ruler of Marvel’s Dream dimension, is surely the ideal opponent who can bring serious threat to the Time Stone holder, Doctor Strange played by Benedict Cumberbatch.

In addition to that, Cargill also hinted that Baron Mordo, who was played by Chiwetel Ejiofor will also be back. However, Mordo who was an ally in the first Doctor Strange movie will be a villain this time around. It would be great to see Chiwetel Ejiofor taking up the mantle of Baron Mordo, who is one of the most formidable foes of the sorcerer supreme in the Marvel comics.

Cargill said, Marvel movies work in threes. They also work outside of their threes. Some of the better Marvel films have more than one villain in them. Me and Scott have not laid the groundwork for it but what I can say is that I have a feeling that whatever Nightmare is involved with, Baron Mordo, being somebody who considers himself the defender of natural law will have something to do with it.”

He added, “For those of you who have ever read the comics, you know that Baron Mordo has a very particular arc, and that’s something we discussed with Chiwetel while working on the first movie. And part of the reason Chiwetel wanted to play Mordo was because he has a definitive ending as a character and it’s such a fascinating ending. And I do know that whether we’re attached or not, that Marvel plans on working towards that ending and fully realizing Mordo as more than just a cardboard cutout villain, but actually taking him to kind of Loki levels of awesomeness. That’s the goal with him.”

Doctor Strange will be seen next in Avengers Infinity War along with RDJ, Chris Evans, Chris Pratt, and the rest of MCU cast to defend earth from the Mad Titan, Thanos.

The Title Of Avengers 4 Will Scare Marvel Fans


One of the most anticipated superhero movies of all time, Avengers Infinity War is just a few weeks away from release. All eyes are on the third Avengers movie at the time and both critics and fans are eagerly waiting for the MCU movie to hit screen on April 27, 2018.

If you are an ardent MCU fan or marvel comic reader, you might have heard a number of fan theories, predictions, and spoilers for Avengers Infinity War. However, what’s surprising is that Marvel studios has refused to share details about the fourth Avengers movie, which is set for 2019 May release. In fact, even the title of the movie has not yet been revealed because everyone who is working behind the movie claims that the title of Avengers 4 will be a major spoiler to Avengers 3.

In a recent tweet, the directors of Avengers Infinity War and the Untitled Avengers movie, Russo Brothers stated that MCU fans and comic book readers should be very afraid of what Avengers 4 will be eventually called. This means that the title of the fourth Avengers movie might actually spend the ending of Avengers Infinity War. Russo Brothers also talked about the way how they approached Avengers 4.


Joe Russo said, “We look in a way that you would look at writers in comic books. People pick up different runs, and they go with it. If there are things from mythology that you are inspired by or you find relevancy in, you go with that. If there are things in mythology that you want to see differently, then you explore ways to execute it differently.”

He added, “I think, of course, there is a list of movies that have preceded this. Those movies have been directed by a lot of different directors, with a lot of different styles, and a lot of different things to say. Anthony and I have found repeatedly that the best and only way for us to move forward, is to receive that information, keep what we like, explore what we like, and exploit what we like, and tell the story that we want to tell.”

He concluded by adding that "I think the audience goes with you when you make those changes, or there are things that you discard. Same with you do in a comic run, when you're reading it. You go, 'I want to see someone else's point of view on this. That was an awesome point of view, and I had a lot of fun with that. Now I want to see something else. Now I want to see ... ' That's, I think, what Marvel's done really well, by bringing in a lot of different voice to execute their films."

The Central Character Of Avengers Infinity War Will Be Thanos


The Mad Titan, who can destroy half the universe with just a tap of his fingers has already started scaring MCU fans since the launch of the fist Avengers Infinity War leaked trailer. It is evident that at least a couple of the founding members of MCU’s Avengers will meet their demise in the third Avengers movie because stopping Thanos is not going to be a simple task.

One of the most surprising facts about this third Avengers movie, Avengers Infinity War is that it will be first Marvel movie, in which the central character is a villain. Yes, Thanos who is in pursuit of the Infinity Stones to destroy half the universe is the major character of Avengers Infinity War. 

The writers and directors of the movie have also explained than Avengers Infinity War will serve as the origin movie of the Mad Titan. Fortunately, it has been confirmed that both Gamora and Thor will also have a significant amount of screen time in the movie. Sebastian Stan, who plays Bucky and Anthony Mackie, who is MCU’s Falcon recently talked about Infinity War and shared a few insights into the epic superhero showdown.


Sebastian Stan said, “I’m sure it’s going to be challenging for sure because there’s so many different tones to these films and that all of these characters carry. So I think it’ll be interesting to see how tonally everybody fits into the same world. You’ve shot already some, right?”

Meanwhile Anthony Mackie stated, “Yeah. The great thing is that tonally, how the movie’s working now everyone, it’s not like you see one person who is the lead of the movie. It’s truly and ensemble movie. I would say if anybody is the lead of the movie it’s Thanos. And it’s all of us working around, orbiting Thanos because he’s such a big bad guy. He’s the uber bad guy. He’s the worst bad guy of all bad guys of all time. So you can’t like put them in three scenes down, then a fight scene at the end. You really have to give them just due. So, our relationship and our scenes are more ensemble based. Everybody playing with a relationship with each other.”

We will patiently have to wait for one of the most anticipated movies of the year, Avengers Infinity War, which is just a few weeks away to gather more news about Bucky, Falcon, Thanos, and the rest of the MCU characters.

Girlfriend Chooses Infinity War Over Prom Text Goes Viral


The greatest MCU superhero showdown, Avengers Infinity War will finally release by the end of the month. Avengers Infinity War being one of the most awaited superhero movies ever has increased the anticipation among both casual movie lovers and die hard Marvel Cinematic Universe lovers.
A few days ago, a Reddit user shared a text message with his girlfriend, where she asked him to take her to the movie instead of going to the senior prom. The boyfriend shared the text message on social media platforms and hinted that he is proud of her.

Skipping a once in a lifetime event such as Senior Prom to watch Avengers Infinity War will give you a clear idea on the hype. In addition, it also implies that just like us, there are tons of MCU fans who have been dreaming about the release of the third Avengers movie, Avengers Infinity War.

The screenwriter of Avengers Infinity War, Stephen McFeely said, “This is about the culmination of the Marvel Cinematic Universe,". "This is about everyone getting together, or trying their hardest to get together, to fight a guy named Thanos. We’ve been teasing Thanos for many movies in 30 second clips, so hopefully all the lead up will allow us to really go to town with him and make him a villain that requires this epic level of storytelling. That is the word I would use most often. It’s ridiculously big."


The co-director of the third Avengers movie, Joe Russo said, “If you were to think of the Marvel universe over the last ten years as a book, this is the ending of the book. And then there may be new books written, but this is certainly the ending of this book.”

Anthony Russo stated, "I think as story tellers, what it means for us is that while you're always looking for a cataclysmic event in a film, to change a character, to challenge a character, and to sort of explore who that character is, and test who that character is, I think it gave all of us in this film an opportunity to figure out, well what were those ultimate tests for these characters?. To sort of go one step further even than how you would normally test a character in one of these films because we have the freedom to sort of think of it, in many cases, as sort of a final test.”

Hawkeye Will Be On A Solo Mysterious Journey In Avengers Infinity War



One of the founding members of MCU’s Avengers, Clint Barton/Hawkeye was notably left out from the trailers, posters, and other promotional materials of Avengers Infinity War. This flooded the internet with rumours that the archer might not be making an appearance in the third Avengers movie while others believe that Hawkeye is going to take up the mantle of Ronin in Infinity War, which is why Marvel has left him out from the promotional materials.

If you are an ardent marvel comic book fan or a passionate MCU film lover, then the question of is Hawkeye going to be in Avengers Infinity War might have popped into your mind at least a couple of times. The directors of the third Avengers movie recently confirm that Jeremy Renner’s archer will indeed make an appearance in the movie. In fact, Hawkeye will be on a solo mysterious adventurous journey during Infinity War.


Joe Russo said, “Hawkeye coming out of Civil War is in the same position that the Cap and Falcon are in at the end of that movie. And Ant Man. And coming into this movie, the characters who are on Cap's side coming out of Civil War, some made certain decisions and others made other decisions that led to different paths and them dealing with oversight in this movie in a different way. So, Hawkeye's on his own journey in this movie.” Anthony Russo added, “Yeah, he has a unique reaction to the Civil War situation that puts him in a special spot this film.”

Joe Russo continued by stating that "There's a lot of characters in these movies that have tones that they're bringing from their own franchises. I think it's a very unique film. I don't think there are a lot of movies that have the kind of tone that this movie has, because it's a combination of franchises. I don't think we've ever seen that before, on this scale. It's got a really unique tone to it. I think it's propulsive. I would say it's an adventure film, but it has elements of a... We were inspired by 90s crime films when we were working on the script, so it's got an energy to it, a bit of a smash-and-grab energy." Avengers Infinity War release date was recently moved o April 27, 2018 by Marvel Studios.

Thor Meet Guardians in new Avengers Infinity War Clip


A new clip from one of the most anticipated superhero movies, Avengers Infinity War has finally made its way to MCU fans and casual movie lovers. The clip was actually a part of the Avengers Infinity War trailed, which was released at the D23 Expo last year. In the leaked Avengers Infinity War clip, we get to see the meeting of the God of Thunder and the Guardians of the Galaxy.

In the clip, we can see that Thor is floating lifelessly through the cosmos of Marvel Cinematic Universe. The Asgardian king end up on the windshield of Guardians’ ship. The guardians bring Thor inside where Drax suggests that he is not a dude but a man whereas Gamora admires Thor for Thor’s impressive physique. Finally, Star Lord asks Mantis to wake Thor up The God of Thunder, who is a bit startled to meet the Guardians asks “who the hell are you guys”.

The directors of Avengers Infinity War have already revealed that the Guardians will play a crucial role in the ensemble flick. Joe Russo said, “They have a great role in this film. Everyone is interwoven into this plot, in a way where they have an emotional connection to the story, and are emotionally effected by the stakes in the movie. You can't tell a movie with this many characters, and not have each of those characters show up, honor them from their different franchises, if they are not motivated to be there, if they are not in life or death circumstances, if they are not fighting to save their belief system, or their way of life.”


He added, There's a lot of characters in the film, and there are a lot of people who are dealing with a lot of issues in a lot of moments, and you look to do the best that you can with each of those characters in the storytelling. We'll get into whether Quill returns to Earth or not, but certainly, Earth is a pivotal player. But as is Space. So there's a lotta stories we told in this one."

From Thor Ragnarok end credits, it is evident that the surviving Asgrdian Parties including Thor, Hulk, Loki, and Valkyrie will be confronted by Thanos. So, it is safe to assume that Thanos might fight Thor and throw him to the cosmos and he will eventually end up with the Guardians of the Galaxy.

Deadpool 2 Will Be Very Different From Its Prequel


The gory kill scenes and witty character representation in Deadpool that was 100 percent accurate to the Marvel comic books had enabled the Ryan Reynolds starrer superhero movie to earn a wide acceptance among both critics and movie lovers. However, recent reports that indicated that the cast members had to reshoot a few scenes because the test screening didn’t go well has made Deadpool fans a bit worried.

However, Ryan Reynolds and Josh Brolin, who will be playing Cable in the second outing of the Merc with the mouth has assured fans that the movie will be an absolute treat for Deadpool and Cable. Additionally, the cast members have also promised that the second instalment of Deadpool will be a lot different from its prequel. Consequently, Deadpool 2 will seem a lot more fresh and funny.

In a recent statement, Josh Brolin said, “Deadpool [2] I know is going to be very fun and funny and fresh because it’s very different from the first Deadpool.” This will be the second superhero movie for Josh Brolin this year, as he will appear in Avengers Infinity War as the Mad Titan, Thanos. From the Avengers Infinity War leaked trailer, it is evident that Josh Brolin will have a fair screen time in the third Avengers movie and he will cause destruction while searching for his precious Infinity Stone.


Moving back to Deadpool 2, another cast members of the movie, Zazie Beetz who plays Domino in the movie said, “In Deadpool 2, I think we go heavier than the first one did. Like Atlanta, the themes are darker. I liked playing this woman who could meet Deadpool face-to-face and toe-to-toe. In terms of our wit and our banter, we match. It really was nice to play that.”

Only time will be able to tell whether Ryan Reynolds and the rest of the crew will be able to enjoy success with Deadpool 2 or not. However, the film is just a few months away from release and it is rumoured to be the second most awaited movie of the year after Avengers Infinity War. It is evident that 2018 is another great year for superhero fans because Black Panther has already been fantastic and it has set the bars really high for the upcoming superhero films such as Deadpool 2, Avengers Infinity War, Venom, X-Men Dark Phoenix Saga, and Aquaman.

Superhero Deaths In Avengers Infinity War Will Be Permanent


As the release of Avengers Infinity War is around the corner, several MCU fans and casual movie watchers have been speculating about who will survive in Avengers Infinity War and who will meet demise in the third Avengers movie. Even though, Marvel has refused to share any clue on who will fall prey to Thanos’ destruction in the movie, it is safe to assume that at least a couple of the founding members of the MCU’s Avengers will not survive the third phase of MCU.

In a recent statement, the head of the Marvel Studios, Kevin Feige said that some of the deaths of the MCU superheroes that will happen in Avengers Infinity War will stay permanent. This means that the Marvel characters who dies in Infinity War will not be resurrected. So, it certainly is the end of the path for at least a couple of our beloved MCU heroes.

Kevin Feige said, “I mean, I could always list off the characters that we’ve killed in our movies that haven’t come back, but the big ones, which I know they’re looking at…? I would just say, yes… People need to be careful what they wish for.” He added, “People always will jump to that. That’s not necessarily what we’re talking about. I talk a lot, because I’m a big-ass nerd, about Star Trek: The Next Generation, All Good Things. That to me is one of the best series finales ever. That wasn’t about death. Picard went and played poker with the crew, something he should have done a long time ago, right?”


The fact that the MCU contracts of Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans, and a few more will end by the fourth Avengers movie have urged several fans to see that either these characters will die in the upcoming Avengers movie or they will simply retire. It has been confirmed that Shuri, played by Letitia Wright will have a big role in the upcoming Marvel movies. So, there is a good chance that she might take up the mantle of Iron Man after Tony’s demise.

Rumours surfacing the internet also suggest that Valkyrie, who is played by Tessa Thompson might take up the mantle of Thor once Chris Hemsworth leaves the MCU. Finally, it makes sense if Bucky Barnes or Sam wield Cap’s Shield too. However, fans have been asking is Bucky Barnes White Wolf after the end credit scene of Black Panther. So, Sam Wilson might be the one who is the front runner to take up the mantle of Captain America.

Avengers Infinity War Will feature Multiple Character Deaths


If you are a person who has passionately followed the Marvel Cinematic Universe since the release of Iron Man in 2008, you might be probably aware of the fact that Avengers Infinity War is going to be the ultimate showdown between good and evil. However, the million dollar question Marvel fans and MCU lovers have been asking for a very long time is who dies in Avengers Infinity War.
It is true that the official from Marvel studios have confirmed that not every one of our favorite Marvel superheroes will survive Avengers Infinity War. So, if the question of who will survive in Avengers Infinity War has popped into your head multiple times, you are not alone. We all are dying to know who will fall prey to Thanos’ destructive forces and who will live to see another day.

It has almost been officially confirmed that one or two major Marvel characters will not survive the third Avengers movie, Avengers Infinity War. Robert Downey Jr., who plays Tony Stark / Iron Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, recently stated that heads will roll in the third installment of the Avengers movie.


He said, “Believe me, I’m tired of every movie, you know, “It’s the end! It’s Armageddon! It’s the Be All, End All, Forever!” And then it’s… not. This one actually is. They’re not kidding. This is a heads-will-roll scenario.” Unfortunately, this doesn’t seem like a surprise, as the Mad Titan’s Arrival with the Black Order has hinted that something bad was really going to happen to our beloved Marvel heroes. From the Infinity War trailer leak, we were also able to see a glimpse at what Thanos is really capable of.

In addition, the Avengers Infinity War footage and the Avengers Infinity War prelude comics did hint that MCU heroes will have to take extreme measures to stop the Mad Titan and his Black Order. This means that Iron Man, Captain America, or Thor might even have to sacrifice their lives for the greater good.

So, you should be ready to stay farewell to at least a couple of the founding members of MCU’s Avengers. The writer of Captain America Winter Soldier and Civil War, Stephen McFeely recently warned fans to get ready to say goodbye to a few of their favorite MCU heroes. He said, “It’s safe to say we will say farewell to people.”

Black Panther Crosses Dark Knight In The Box Office


It seems that even the Dark Knight is unable to stop the king of Wakanda, Black Panther at the box office. Ryan Coogler’s Black Panther has just earned another 41 million dollars in the box office last office. This has brought the domestic box office total of the newly released MCU movie to be around $562 million.

One of the most interesting things you need to note is that the solo outing of the Wakandian King has just surpased the box office collection of one of the best superhero movies ever made, that is, The Dark Knight. According to reports from reliable sources, MCU’s Black Panther is currently the highest grossing solo comic book superhero movie ever. In addition, Black Panther is also the seventh-highest grossing movie in the domestic box office at the moment.

The only MCU movie with more box office earning than Black Panther is the first Avengers movie, which was released in the year 2012. MCU’s first superhero showdown Avengers had scored 623.4 million dollars and went on to became the fifth highest grossing movie of all time and the highest grossing superhero movie. However, records are meant to be broken and Black Panther is rumoured to break MCU’s box office records in the coming weeks.


Even if Black Panther managed to break the box office record of Dark Knight and the first Avengers movie, the success enjoyed by the ones who made Black Panther might be short lived. This is mainly because the greatest MCU superhero showdown, Avengers Infinity War is just a few weeks ago and it is estimated to break every superhero movie record.

However, in a recent statement, Mar Millar, who is writer some of the top selling Marvel comic books including Civil War believes that Black Panther’s box office record will remain intact even after the release of Avengers Infinity War. He said, “I'm going to make a bold, crazy prediction and you can giggle all you want: But I think Black Panther is going to outgross Avengers: Infinity War. I can feel it in my BONES”

Black Panther ending has really hinted a few clues about Bucky Burney’s character in the third Avengers movie, particularly the end credits scene. So, if you have not yet got a chance to see Chadwick Boseman, Letitia Wright, Michael B Jordan, and more in action, grab your Black Panther tickets and enjoy the show before Avengers Infinity War releases.

Letitia Wright knows how Shuri would interact with the Avengers


Ryan Coogler, who has earned a name in Hollywood through “Creed” and “Fruitvale Station”, has just directed one of the best MCU movies ever. The solo outing of Chadwick Boseman’s T’Challa aka Black Panther has received huge praise from both critics and viewers alike, which is something Ryan would be really proud of.

Ryan Coogler’s MCU debut took viewers on a visual journey to the fictional nation of Wakanda. The movie showed the heroics of T’Challa, introduced the king’s allies, and gave us an incredible protagonist in the form of Michael B Jordan’s Killmonger. However, one of the major allies of Black Panther who was introduced in the movie was T’Challa’s sister Shuri.

Letitia Wright’s take on the character was phenomenal and she was one of the best things about the movie. She used her skills and genius to develop a number of devices and suits, which allowed Black Panther to thrive against Kilmonger and other villains.

Letitia Wright’s Shuri is rumoured to have a greater role in MCU and the actress have a clear idea on how her meeting with Bruce Banner or Tony Stark would go. She said, “I think she'll be OK. I think she would humble herself to learn from them, and challenge them as well with new designs and new ideas from Wakanda. And she's willing to learn from the West because her brother is so open now. I think she's embracing that as well. She would hold her own."

As the Marvel Cinematic Universe is swiftly drifting to the fourth phase, it has been rumoured that Tony Stark, Bruce Banner, and a few more Avengers will be existing the franchise, which will leave a major spot for a tech genius. The on-screen charisma and the brilliant performance delivered by Letitia Wright will undoubtedly make her a forerunner for the spot.


Letitia Wright talked about working aside Chadwick Boseman and said, "It was easy, and I’ll tell you why. I feel like it was ordained. I really, really feel like this is just a God thing. Even before I met him, I knew that he was going to play my brother. I just knew that we would connect because of the type of actor he is as well. He’s a person of the spirit, a like soul. Very grounded, down-to-earth, humble. I knew that when I met him, I wasn’t going to try and impress him, to force a friendship. I was just going to vibe and see if we connect on a soul level, and we did. And even in our first scene together, it was kind of like we’ve always been brother and sister."

Black Panther, which is currently running near you, will be the last Marvel movie before the ultimate superhero showdown, Avengers Infinity War. So, try to catch it to get pumped up for the next Avengers movie.

Black Panther’s Killmonger Has Just Solved MCU’s Villain Problem


As you would probably know, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has enjoyed tremendous success over the last 10 years that is since the release of Iron Man back in the year 2018. Even though MCU has grossed over 13.5 billion dollars in their 17 films, casual movie lovers and even die hard Marvel fans often complain that MCU has a major villain problem.

The criticism among fans and critics for not having a phenomenal antagonist was something marvel movies had been trying to fix for a very long time. However, when a new Avengers movie or marvel movie is being released, fans still complain that the  adversary in the movie was not up to the mark.
The God of Mischief, Loki played by Tom Hiddleston had earned huge praise after his first two appearances in marvel movies but it seems that marvel fans want to see the god side of Loki, which was explored a bit in Thor Ragnarok.

It is true that the likes of Cate Blanchett (“Thor: Ragnarok”), Michael Keaton (“Spider-Man: Homecoming”), and Kurt Russell (“Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol 2”) did show a glimpse of their talent in the last few MCU movie but most of these A-list actors failed to create a lasting impression. This is where Michael B Jordan’s Killmonger set things apart.


Jordan’s performance as Eric “Killmonger” Stevens in Ryan Coogler’s Black Panther was phenomenal and it did leave a lasting impression on the viewers. Some critics even hailed him as the most memorable antagonist in the MCU movies. In fact, Jordan’s character is skilful, smart, powerful, and he do have a clear motive, which will make the fans feel for him.

In a recent interview, Jordan said, “The goal was to build a character that will entertain you, educate you, inspire and also scare you a little bit. For the first time for me playing a character like that, obviously, you want to put your best foot forward and try to shoot for the moon. Hopefully we got something that reaches up there.”

Jordan added, "A villain's agenda is deeply impacted by their backstory, their upbringing, their history, and Killmonger's was systemic oppression. That's what he grew up in the States. The only way he saw his way out was to go equip yourself, train yourself and take over." Even though, the comic origin of the character has been altered by the filmmakers, they were still able to give fans a clear idea on why Killmonger turned out to be a misunderstood person, who was forced to become a villain. This is what makes Eric “Killmonger” Stevens the best MCU antagonist ever.

Captain America: Civil War Explains The Difference Between Killmonger And T’Challa


The third installment of MCU’s Captain America Trilogy, Captain America Civil War was one the most important MCU movie ever. Captain America Civil War was crucial to MCU not because it divided the Avengers but because it introduced two iconic Marvel superheroes, Spider-Man and Black Panther.

The web crawler, Spider-Man played by Tom Holland got his solo movie a year ago. Even though Spidey is one most popular and best Marvel heroes, fans were more excited to see a solo Black Panther movie because of three reasons. The first reason is that the top-notch performance from second reason while the second was that fans wanted MCU to explore the fictional nation of Wakanda, which has an extensive collection of Vibranium.

The final reason was that some of the founding members of MCU’s Avengers will exit the franchise by Avengers Infinity War or the untitled Avengers 4 movie. So, you will need a strong and capable leader to lead the Avengers and Chadwick Boseman’s Black Panther is one of the leading contenders who could lead a new team of Avengers.

Chadwick Boseman’s T’Challa leaped straight into the action after the death of his father, T’Chaka in Captain America Civil War.  About two years later, Black Panther is on a solo mission against a greater foe, Erik Stevens aka Killmonger played by Michael B Jordan. If you have seen the movie, you will be well aware that Black Panther and Killmonger are similar in a number of aspects. However, the producer of the movie, Nate Moore recently stated that Captain America Civil War shows how Black Panther is different from Killmonger.


He said, “You feel the sympathy but you realize he never got over this awful thing that happened to him as a kid, right but was never able to circumvent that and become a good person. He actually becomes a bad person because of it, because vengeance consumes him to a degree he becomes a killer and has plans of essentially mass murder. Interestingly enough, T'Challa makes the opposite choice at the end of Captain America: Civil War, right? So there, he's confronted with Zemo and decides not to do the thing that I think Killmonger would have done immediately. That is where they are two sides of a different coin in a way because the men who they are dictate how they react to that very tragic circumstance.”

Even though the motives and reasons of Killmonger does makes him a reasonable guy, his actions depicts that Killmonger and Black Panther are two opposite sides of a coin. Black Panther will return for the next Avengers movie, Avengers Infinity War, which is scheduled for a May 4 release.

Ryan Coogler Writes an Emotional Letter to Black Panther Fans


Ryan Coogler’s Black Panther is not just another success MCU movie that will beat box office records instead it is a flat out phenomenon, which was an absolute treat to MCU fans and casual movie lovers.  As per reports, MCU’s Black Panther has earned 202 million dollars in just three days after its opening. The only other Avengers movie that has acquired more money in the box office was The Avengers

As Marvel fans and movie lovers are enjoying the massive success of Black Panther, the director of the movie, Ryan Coogler is speechless but he still does have a few things to say to fans. Ryan Coogler, who has enjoyed success with Creed and Fruitvale Station has made history, as Black Panther is the highest grossing film in the United States, which was directed by a black director. Coogler celebrated the success of Black Panther by writing an emotional letter to shows his gratitude to fans.

Coogler Wrote, “I am struggling to find the words to express my gratitude at this moment, but I will try. Filmmaking is a team sport. And our team was made up [of] amazing people from all over the world who believe in this story. Deep down we all hoped that people would come to see a film about a fictional country on the continent of Africa, made up of a cast of people of African descent.”


He added, “Never in a million years did we imagine that you all would come out this strong. It still humbles me to think that people care enough to spend their money and time watching our film- But to see people of all backgrounds wearing clothing that celebrates their heritage, taking pictures next to our posters with their friends and family, and sometimes dancing in the lobbies of theaters– often moved me and my wife to tears. For the people who bought out theaters, who posted on social about how lit the film would be, bragged about our awesome cast, picked out outfits to wear, and who stood in line in theaters all over the world– all before seeing the film.”

He concluded his letter by adding, “To the press who wrote about the film for folks who hadn’t yet seen it, and encouraged audiences to come out. And to the young ones, who came out with their parents, with their mentors, and with their friend. Thank you for giving our team of filmmakers the greatest gift: The opportunity to share this film, that we poured our hearts and souls into, with you.”

It is possible that Coogler might return to direct Black Panther 2 but there hasn’t been any official confirmation. However, it is evident that Kevin Feige and Marvel Studious will love to have the visionary and extremely talented Ryan Coogler back. Black Panther and some of his allies will be back for Avengers Infinity War, which is just a couple of months away from release.

Sebastian Stan Loves To Take Up the Mantle of Captain America


The upcoming Avengers movies, Avengers Infinity War and Avengers 4 will bring a number of changes to the Marvel Cinematic Universe and it would possibly mark the final showdown of some of the iconic Marvel characters such as Thor, Captain America, and Iron Man. One of the most common fan theories surfacing around the internet suggest that the Steve Rogers might sacrifice his life during Avengers Infinity War to stop the Mad Titan, Thanos.

One of the most interesting things about this fan theory is that MCU fans claims that Bucky Barnes/ Winter Soldier will take up the mantle of Captain America after the demise of Steve Rogers. During an interview, Sebastian Stan who plays Bucky Barnes aka Winter Soldier was asked whether he would like to play Captain America in the MCU or not.

Stan said, “I mean, yeah I would love that one day, absolutely. I don't know when that day would be, and I just think...it would be a very different Captain America you know, you wouldn't be able to have the same Captain America as you have right now because he's a different guy. Again, there's this issue where we've got to get him to be trustworthy enough for them to give him that responsibility, you know, to fill those shoes, and those are hard shoes to fill. So I think it's possible, I really do, but it just has to make sense and we might need a little more time.”


We still have no clue or official confirmation on whether Bucky Barnes will suit up as Captain America or not but we know is that the contract of Chris Evans will end by the fourth Avengers movie. Therefore, there is a good possibility for someone else to take up the mantle of Captain America. Anthony Mackie’s Sam Wilson/Falcon is also another possible candidate to take up the position of Captain America in the upcoming marvel movies.

However, as for now, it seems that Chris Evans is incredibly happy and he is very much enjoying his time with the shield. Chris Evans said, “No, it's wonderful. It's so nice. Sometimes I've played not so savory characters in the past and it's, you know, you got to be in a really nasty headspace and you can't help but take some of that home with you and it can feel like a little bit of a storm cloud."

He added, “But playing Cap, it's such a nice energy to try to encompass every day. You can't help but try and compare it to your own life and find kind of analogous circumstances where you can live up to the person you try to portray each day. No, its a blessing. I love it.” Chris Evans and Sebastian Stan will share screen once again in Avengers Infinity War, which is scheduled for a May 4th release.

Chris Hemsworth’s MCU Contract will end by Avengers 4


The Australian actor, Chris Hemsworth who has played the God of Thunder Thor in the Marvel Cinematic Universe recently confirmed that he is through playing the iconic Marvel superhero. The actor also confirmed that his MCU contract will expire after the fourth Avengers movie, which is rumoured to hit the screen by the summer of 2019.

Chris Hemsworth said, “My contract's coming to an end, we've just finished the last two Avengers. Who knows what the future holds.” Even though the third instalment of the Thor movie, Thor: Ragnarok was considered as a breath of fresh air and one of the most enjoyable Marvel movies till date, Chris Hemsworth feel looks at the movie as an ending note.

However, the Australian actor did confirm that he is all set to make a comeback for Thor 4 if the creators at Marvel can come up with something much better than Thor: Ragnarok. Hemsworth talked about the last Thor movie and said, “We felt like we reinvented the last one in a big way. We might have a conversation if there's another great script that comes along. But at the moment that's it.”


As we are a few months into the release of one of the most anticipated superhero movie, Avengers Infinity War, we need to embrace the fact that things are changing in the MCU. The founding members of the MCU’s Avengers such as Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Hulk, Black Widow, and Hawkeye will not be around for future Marvel movies, as most of their contracts are expiring.

Additionally, the arrival of the Mad Titan, Thanos to the earth to claim the Infinity Stones might also mean that some MCU heroes may have to sacrifice their lives to stop the Mad Titan. Fortunately, it has been confirmed that Chris Hemsworth will be appearing in both the upcoming Avengers movies. So, we hope that we will be able to see a heroic and epic conclusion to Thor’s journey in the MCU.

The upcoming Avengers movies, Avengers Infinity War (2018) and the Untitled Avengers movie (2019) is rumoured to be the final act for some of our favourite MCU characters including Thor, Captain America, and Iron Man. These heroes will pass the torch to other major Marvel characters like Black Panther, Doctor Strange, Spider-Man, and Captain Marvel to transform the face of MCU.

Will Captain Marvel Debut In Avengers Infinity War


When it comes to raw power, Carol Danvers/ Captain Marvel, is one of the strongest heroes in the Marvel Universe. So, it would be a huge disappointment and shame if one of the most iconic Female marvel superheroes doesn’t make an appearance in the next Avengers movie to lend a helping hand to the MCU superheroes in their fight against the Mad Titan, Thanos.

It has been already rumoured and almost confirmed that the Marvel superheroes will have to take extreme measure to stop Thanos from acquiring the Infinity stones. This is why it would make perfect sense to introduce Captain Marvel to the mix, as she will be able to help the Avengers in defeating the mad titan. Moreover, if you are a comic book reader, then you might also be familiar with the fact that Captain Marvel has stood tall on tall with Iron Man and Captain America. In fact, she has even punched Tony Stark, which put him in coma for years. This just gives us a subtle hint on what Captain Marvel is really capable of.


Fan theories and speculations about the appearance of Captain Marvel in Avengers Infinity War have been flooding the internet over the last few weeks. So, fans had anticipated that she might be making a cameo in the post credits scene of the movie. However, recent reports suggest that Carol Danvers might not be making an appearance in the third Avengers movie, Avengers Infinity War, which will hit the theatres in a couple of months.

During the Comic Con, one of the directors of the third Avengers movie, Joe Russo confirmed that Carol Danvers/ Captain Marvel will not appear in Infinity War. However, he did proclaim that Carol Danvers will play a crucial role in Avengers 4 movie, which will be releasing on May, 2018. In addition to that, Scarlett Johansson who plays Black Widow in the MCU stated that Brie Larson who will be playing Carol Danvers/ Captain Marvel is in Avengers 4. She also added that Larson has already shared a scene with Mark Ruffalo as the Hulk. “She’s here before shooting the stand-alone Captain Marvel movie so we get to watch her get her feet wet for real,” Johansson said.

Jessica Jones' Season 2 to premiere on March 8


Our favourite hard drinking Private Investigator and the strongest Defender, Jessica Jones will be back to our screen on March 8, 2018 for the highly anticipated second season of one of best Netflix series, Jessica Jones. Even though the second season of the critically acclaimed Marvel Netflix show is just a few months away, the show runners has not yet revealed much details about the new season.

However, according to the official synopsis, it seems that Jessica will still be dealing with her history even after the death of Kilgrave, who was the main antagonist in the first season of the show. The official synopsis reads, "New York City private investigator Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter) is beginning to put her life back together after murdering her tormenter, Kilgrave. Now known throughout the city as a super-powered killer, a new case makes her reluctantly confront who she really is while digging deeper into her past to explore the reasons why."

The new set images released gives a clear look at the titular heroine, Jessica Jones. In addition to that, we also get a brief glimpse at the supporting characters of season 2. Janet McTeer, who plays a crucial mystery character in the second season of Jessica Jones can be seen talking with the Private Detective. The show runners have already hinted that the character played by Janet McTeer will change the world of Jessica Jones and her allies.


In one of the set images, we can also see the sinister Kilgrave played by David Tennant, who is popularly known as the Purple Man among comic readers and Marvel fans. However, it has been reported that Kilgrave  will only be appearing in a single episode, as a flashback or as a manifestation in Jessica’s mind, as he was killed in the first season of the show.

The showrunner, Melissa Rosenberg said, "I will always use as much as I can from the books, but unfortunately we've gone away from that mythology. The MCU is very different, and we're probably not going to be able to do parallel storylines. But I take every little piece I can [from the comics], because it's so good." She added, "I just want to continue with Jessica's character – she's very damaged, and the damage goes beyond Kilgrave, so there's a lot to mine from in her backstory and her present day situation."

Black Panther Director Wanted Spider-Man Villain Kraven The Hunter



The King of Wakanda, Black Panther will finally make his highly anticipated solo debuted in a few days and this MCU film will set up Avengers Infinity War, which is rumoured to be the greatest Marvel superhero showdown ever. In a recent interview, the director of Black Panther, Ryan Coogler revealed a shocking statement that two iconic Marvel characters almost made their live action debut in his movie.

Ryan Coogler added that he had originally planned for the long time foe of Spider-Man, Kraven the hunter to appear in the solo outing of Black Panther. However, the executives from MCU and Marvel studious refused his suggestions because they had other plans for Kraven the hunter. This means that Kraven might appear in the sequel of Spider-Man Homecoming or in one of the future movies of Sony that comes after Tom Hardy’s Venom.

Ryan Coogler said, “Being a Marvel fan, you want to grab all the characters, you realise there’s contractual things. You don’t have that character. There was a Christopher Priest run that was pretty heavy, there’s a big scene where Panther’s fighting Kraven, Kraven the Hunter.”

He added, “I’ve always loved Kraven the Hunter in almost every iteration. So there was a moment – ‘Can I grab Kraven?’ – and they were ‘Nah, you don’t have Kraven.’ He was one where I thought ‘Oh, man.’ But I don’t even know if he would have worked in the movie we ended up with, this was the early days.”


It is pretty exciting to hear Ryan Coogler is a passionate Marvel comic book fan and he has a number of ideas to bring more Marvel characters to the screen. This might help us to see more characters that are related to Black Panther or other Marvel superheroes in the sequel of Black Panther, which is rumored to take place after the events of the upcoming Avengers movies, Avengers Infinity War and Avengers 4.

Ryan Coogler also added that he had also wanted the Young Avenger, Eli Bradley aka Patriot to make an appearance in Black Panther. He said, “Crazy enough, for comic book fans, we toyed with the character Patriot for a little bit. Early on we were interested to get our hands on him, Joe [Robert Cole] and I, but that ended up going away so we could focus on Wakanda a little more.”

Daredevil Season 3 Images Teases Kingpin’s Return


The crime boss and the villainous Wilson Fisk, who goes by the name Kingpin was one the best things about the first season of Daredevil. D'Onofrio’s performance as the archenemy of the devil of Hell’s kitchen was absolutely spoon and it was widely accepted by both critics and fans who wanted to see more of D’Onofrio’s kingpin. However, the screen time given to Wilson Fisk was pretty much limited in the second season of Daredevil.

Surprisingly, the third season of Daredevil, which is rumored to adapt the Born Again comic story line, will contain D'Onofrio, as one of the series regulars. This implies that D'Onofrio’s kingpin will play a key role in the third season of the series. In fact, the recently released set photos from the set of Daredevil hints that Wilson Fisk’s is finally out of the jail

Charlie Cox will return as the Devil of Hell’s Kitchen for the third season of the series and it has also been confirmed that Deborah Ann Wolf will also be back as Karen Page. Apart from that, Rosario Dawson who plays the nurse Claire Temple in the Netflix shows of Marvel will also be reprising her role


In a recent interview, Vincent D'Onofrio spoke about playing Wilson Fisk and said, "I love the idea that I get to play him. I wanted to do the right thing, and I want to keep doing it. I remember the first season and how all of the Daredevil and Fisk fans were talking about it. It's a big deal to them, and that really inspired me. It really brought my enthusiasm up, a lot."

He added, "I've shot some pretty cool scenes, so far. It's different, but it's very Fisk. It's still very emotional. The character is evolving. His whole deal is based on emotion, so we're taking him down that role further." This season of Daredevil will certainly be emotional, as many of us are under the impression that Matt Murdock/Daredevil gave his life to save the city at the end of Defenders. So, the season will explore the state of mind of Karen, Foggy, and others who have no clue that Matt is alive after the events of Defenders.

10 Big Reveals From Avengers Infinity War TV Spot

The third Avengers movie, Avengers Infinity War had a crucial presence at Today’s Super Bowl. MCU released a short 31-second trailer, which was full of reveals, teases, and secretes for the upcoming superhero showdown. The next MCU movie, Black Panther, which will hit the screen in a couple of weeks is rumored to set up Avengers Infinity War.


As you would probably know, Avengers Infinity War will mark the 10-year celebration of MCU and it will bring the MAD Titan, Thanos to the earth in search of his precious Infinity Stones. It is pretty evident that the combined force of Avengers and Guardians of Galaxy may struggle and even have to take extreme measures to stop Infinity War villain, Thanos.

The Avengers Infinity War leaked trailer has left a few hints about the movie instead of making any statements. Moreover, the brief teaser gives us a brief glimpse on character arcs and key scenes but it also leaves more questions than answers. Let us breakdown the trailer to uncover the subtle hints in it.

Bucky’s New Arm


Shuri and the top scientists from Black Panther’s Wakanda has come up with a brand new arm for Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier. It is interesting to note that Bucky’s new arm doesn’t contain a star and it seems that the effects HYDRA had on him has been reversed.

Tony’s New Tech



We get a brief glimpse at Iron Man’s new armor in the short Avengers Infinity War leaked trailer. The new suit has spread out from the inside of Tony’s body and it is pretty much similar to the Bleeding Edge tech from Marvel comic books.

Science Bros Are Back


The last time Tony Stark and Bruce Banner shared a screen together was in Avengers Age of Ultron. From the new trailer, it is evident that the Science Bros are back. The first Avengers Infinity War footage hinted that Bruce Banner will be wearing the Hulkbuster suit for a while but it seems that he will eventually transform into Hulk to stop Thanos.

Steve Is Back


One of our greatest worries about Avengers Inifinity war was will Vision survive without the stone. However, in the trailer, Steve joins black Widow and Vision, who seems to be in a bit of pain. So, this shot might suggest that Vision has already been attacked by Thanos or his Black Order.

Spidey Heads Into Outer Space


Spider-Man can be seen crawling up on of the mysterious ring-shaped machine that Thanos has sent to Earth. Spidey might encounter Thanos during this scene, which might not end well for the web crawler. However, Iron Man and Doctor Strange might show up to save him and then Tony gifts him the iconic Iron Spider suit.

Wanda And Vision


Wanda can be seen using her powers on Vision’s Mind Stone and It seems that Wanda is communicating to him. Perhaps, she might be the one who figures out a way to keep Vision alive even if he lose the Infinity Stone.

Nebula Returns


The new sneak peak gave us a clear look on the Adolescent version of Groot and Thanos’ daughter, Nebula. Nebula who is on the verge to seek vengeance from her dad will surely have a key role to play in Avengers Infinity War.

Cap Is Suited Up


We do get a closer look at Steve Rogers new suit from the Avengers Infinity War trailer leak. However, do not be fooled because Cap is actually holding two shields in the final shot of the trailer. We have to assume that both these shields may combine together to form a larger shield, which Cap will surely need if he’s going to face Thanos.

New Team-Ups


Yay! The MCU superhero team-ups that we have been waiting to see since the last 10 years is finally upon us. In the first few moments of the trailer, we can see Tony, Doctor Strange, and Spidey suited up and ready for action. After a few close-ups later, we can see Thor with Groot and rocket. This might be an endeavor to forge a new weapon for the God of Thunder.

Iron Man & Doctor Strange



In the final moments of the trailer, we can see a joint attack from the Sorcerer Supreme and Iron man. The impressive shot shows Doctor Strange coming up with an incantation right before a blast from Tony on someone who is attacking the city, presumably Thanos.
