Rumor: David Zaslav is pressuring James Gunn for more heroes in order to sell DC to potential buyers. I mean it's been a year with three, potentially four failed movie on DC's resume after Discovery merger. Yeah, it's a hot commodity. https://boundingintocomics.com/2023/07/21/rumor-warner-bros-discovery-ceo-david-zaslav-ordered-james-gunn-to-stack-superman-legacy-with-more-dc-characters-to-lure-potential-buyers/

Spider-Man 2 story trailer reveals that Harry is back, MJ look is different, and Venom will probably become the ultimate bad guy in the last hour after fighting Kraven for 90% of the game. https://insider-gaming.com/new-marvels-spider-man-2-trailer-gives-a-look-at-the-story-venom/ Trailer starts at 1:26 if you wish to skip pass all the talking. #spiderman #marvel #insomniacgames

Blue Beetle final trailer, but also Gunn reaffirms that Blue Beetle will be in the Gunnverse. But what does that really mean? Superman: Legacy will be the first movie in the Gunnverse, and Creature Commandos the first show. So the movie that is Blue Beetle doesn't make any impact on the future Gunnverse. Meaning I don't have to watch it? https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/blue-beetle-trailer-dc-movie-1235533369/ https://www.cbr.com/james-gunn-blue-beetle-part-of-new-dcu/ #bluebeetle #dcu #gunnverse

At first we didn't know how long it would take the Gunnverse to fill in. As the search for Superman and Lois took forever. Then erratically more and more names dropped. Anthony Carrigan, Isabella Merced, Nathan Fillion, and Edi Gathegi. I would be surprised if we get ten more actors in the coming week or two. https://deadline.com/2023/07/james-gunn-excitement-superman-legacy-explains-green-lantern-guy-gardner-hawkgirl-mister-terrific-1235434964/ https://www.msn.com/en-us/tv/news/superman-legacy-nabs-barry-star-anthony-carrigan-as-dc-hero-metamorpho-exclusive/ar-AA1dMzGD #supermanlegacy #superman #gunnverse #greenlantern #hawkgirl #misterterrific #metamorpho

Vigilante will reappear before Peacemaker S2. This will probably be in Waller, as a member of Creature Commandos will also appear or minor throughout the season of Waller. (I'm leaning towards Rick Flag Sr.) https://www.cbr.com/james-gunn-peacemaker-vigilante-return/ #vigilante #jamesgunn #dcu #wbd

EA announces a new Black Panther video game, with a newly created Triple-A developer Cliffhanger Games. Cliffhanger games has recruited developers who have worked on projects like Shadow of Mordor, God of War, Halo Infinite, and Call of Duty. So a mix bag of good and bad. https://insider-gaming.com/ea-black-panther/ #blackpanther #EA #marvel

The Last of Us Part III will take place in a house located outside of a major post-apocalyptic city. The story will follow five characters inhabiting the house. Ellie will be featured as a main character, but according to the leak, doesn't seem to live in the house, making me believe she won't be present throughout the whole game. But that's all just maybe, we won't know until more information is leaked or Naughty Dog gives us more information. https://www.cbr.com/the-last-of-us-part-3-leak-ellie-new-characters/ #thelastofus #naughtydog

Disney+ is losing popularity, is this a sign of foreboding or is it just growing pains before Disney comes charging back. https://thedirect.com/article/disney-plus-popularity-competing-streaming-services #disney

Daniel Radcliffe will not be seeking a cameo in WBD upcoming Harry Potter television series. Which is completely okay, as long as you focus on giving me a good story with solid performances and CGI, I don't need cameos. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/daniel-radcliffe-harry-potter-series-1235529005/

HBO shows are heading to Netflix. Now this isn't a big surprise, I mean HBO/Max just had a huge cleansing a couple of months back. We'll see more projects of WBD go to rival streamers, and more content removed from Max. This, I believe, is solely in the interest of making coin wherever coin can be made. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/netflix-insecure-six-feet-under-ballers-hbo-1235528469/

Robocop and Frankenstein are inspirations for James Mangold writing for 'Swamp Thing.' So, a man trying to find himself now that he's this grotesque monster rejected by friends and family. Hmm, that is good. Swamp Thing is a great comic, I'm reading it right now. https://boundingintocomics.com/2023/06/29/james-mangold-shares-he-plans-to-incorporate-robocop-and-frankenstein-themes-into-his-swamp-thing-movie/

James Mangold says he's cancelled Boba Fett movie was going to be a one world spaghetti western. That's neat, I guess. I mean it's still not the direction I would take, and ultimately it would probably still be a continuation of Boba climbing out of the Sarlacc and fighting gangsters on Tatooine. https://variety.com/2023/film/news/boba-fett-movie-r-rated-canceled-solo-box-office-1235658248/

Now that we have our Superman and Lois Lane, up next Lex Luthor, Jimmy Olsen, Perry White, Mama and Papa Kent, the Authority, etc... Jesus, that's a lot. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/superman-legacy-cast-david-corenswet-rachel-brosnahan-1235358907/

Patrick Stewart wants to make a Picard movie. Doesn't he know that he's chapter is over? I mean why else do you think Picard ended with a poker match, just like in Next Generations. Can we please put Picard out to pasture. https://www.cbr.com/star-trek-patrick-stewart-picard-movie/

“After a brief 10-year hiatus, Futurama has crawled triumphantly from the cryogenic tube, its full original cast and satirical spirit intact. The 10 all-new episodes of season 11 have something for everyone. New viewers will be able to pick up the series from here, while long-time fans will recognize payoffs to decades-long mysteries — including developments in the epic love story of Fry and Leela, the mysterious contents of Nibbler’s litter box, the secret history of evil Robot Santa, and the whereabouts of Kif and Amy’s tadpoles. Meanwhile there’s a whole new pandemic in town as the crew explores the future of vaccines, bitcoin, cancel culture and streaming TV.”

Kraven the Hunter trailer dropped, and it was...alright. I mean it's not our version of Kraven, but a new version where he gets his powers from the most protein chugging, never skipped leg day lion. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/kraven-the-hunter-trailer-aaron-taylor-johnson-spider-man-villain-1235519105/

Blue Beetle will be the first DCU Hero, but Superman: Legacy will be the first DCU movie. So, I don't have to watch Blue Beetle in preparation for the Gunnverse? James Gunn says Blue Beetle is the first hero in the new DCU, but he really elaborate and says it nonchalant. I don't even know if he's talking about Ted Kord, because Booster Gold tv show is in the line up, or if he means Jaime Reyes played by Xolo Maridueña. https://www.cbr.com/blue-beetle-first-dcu-hero-james-gunn/

Farewell, John Romita Sr. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/john-romita-sr-dead-marvel-artist-1235515094/

Deadline states that Dial of Destiny will make $60 million dollars it's opening weekend, which could turn into a five day weekend with Fourth of July being on Tuesday. But based on the numbers, being price of tickets and number of people who will see the movie if they do accrue $60 million, that is a little disappointing. https://deadline.com/2023/06/indiana-jones-and-the-dial-of-destiny-box-office-projection-1235412010/

Ubisoft dropped their new trailer for Star Wars Outlaws. And I feel.....nothing. I mean it doesn't really show anything, doesn't tell you what the game will be about. I mean I guessing we're a con-woman, with a heart of gold, looking for that big steal where we'll finally retire and live a life of ease.

Elizabeth Olsen not eager to return to Marvel, but if she does she wants Scarlett Witch to be given redemption and be more lighthearted. I personally believe she should go to prison, she killed how many people? https://thedirect.com/article/elizabeth-olsen-marvel-return-not

Chris Hemsworth acknowledges Thor 4's disappointment in it's several fields: humor, character arcs, wasting of Christian Bale's Gorr the God Butcher, and CGI. https://thedirect.com/article/chris-hemsworth-thor-4-disappointing-reviews

Raised by Wolves is still being pushed, one year after it's cancellations. Billboard in Times Square lite up with advertisement, pushing for people to send #saveraisedbywolves. How I would love for this show to come back. To me it's a one of a kind sci-fi,. https://www.cbr.com/raised-by-wolves-lobby-season-3-billboard/

Andy Muschietti apparently has a lot of love in the new WBD DC leadership, as he's already being eyed for the Brave and the Bold directors chair. Now this could be 100% speculation, but James Gunn did state he wanted to work with Andy again, this could mean a DC project, just maybe not Batman. https://theilluminerdi.com/2023/06/05/andy-muschietti-the-brave-and-bold/

Andy Muschietti sings Ezra Miller's praise and wishes to work with Ezra again, they even already have a sequel written for the Flash. But without JG giving his approval, The Flash will just join the hemp of failed ventures. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/the-flash-andy-muschietti-ezra-miller-sequels-1235503589/
