The classic cartoon franchise is getting a high-budget live-action remake, and it plays exactly by the Marvel rulebook. The trailer is focused on the central story of Adam Glenn, the lost prince of Eternia, forced to live in hiding on Earth.
The app is incredibly simple. I made use of the wonderful SimpleCSS for my design and then made use of the TMDB API. The TMDB APIs are pretty easy to use, but finding out how to get this information did take a bit of digging.
"This character is going through a time of reassessment and self-discovery and kind of, for the first time, reaching out to other people, trying to have relationships. But how do you do that when the person that taught you everything you know is the Emperor, who is the most evil character in all of 'Star Wars' history."
I don't feel out of place like this. It's like a family reunion. I love the creativity that's always been here, said Tameka Hendon, who has been attending since 2019. She said her friend handmade her customized cosplay, which features a motorized rotating ballerina in the wig, and was inspired by Queen Charlotte's Swan wig in Bridgerton.
After a decade floundering both critically and at the box office, DC Studios has regained their footing under James Gunn. With the moderate success of last year's Superman and the groundwork laid by a relatively well-received second season of Peacemaker, it seems as if the days of DC's cinematic outings getting pummeled by the MCU are over, as well as their days of approaching the plate without a plan in hand.
Aaron Pierre, the star of the upcoming series Lanterns, will reprise his role of John Stewart in Man of Tomorrow. Pierre plays John Stewart, a member of the Green Lantern Corps, in Lanterns, so his involvement in Man of Tomorrow is somewhat obvious, as we've known from the get-go that Man of Tomorrow will pit Superman and Lex Luthor against Brainiac, an alien villain.
Alan Cumming has revealed he inadvertently injured Pedro Pascal during production of the upcoming Marvel movie Avengers: Doomsday. The Traitors host, 60, is set to reprise his role as X-Men superhero Nightcrawler in the film. Speaking during a recent appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Cumming said: What was funny was my first scene with Pedro, he hurt his neck and had to go home. So I broke Pedro.
He did as much 13 years ago in Iron Man 3, the second he dropped his guise as the Mandarin to reveal that he was actually Trevor Slattery. The efficacy - not to mention the morality - of this twist has been the topic of heated debate ever since, but no one can deny that Kingsley isn't utterly sympathetic in the role.
The much-debated loss of interest in epic superhero sagas has plagued the genre for the better half of the decade, and Marvel's own dogged need to keep itself at the center of the conversation is partially to blame. Its cinematic universe used to dominate pop culture, but ever since Avengers: Endgame, it's struggled to justify its own existence. Not even self-aware jabs at the MCU's expense - like in Deadpool & Wolverine or the shaky She-Hulk: Attorney at Law - are enough to put the franchise back on track.
After the 2026 Golden Globes, Hamnet director Chloe Zhao was asked what message she wanted viewers to take away from her work. "What is grief, but love persevering?," she answered, while the cast nodded in agreement. It sounds like a beautiful maxim from Shakespeare itself, but it actually came from the Marvel Cinematic Universe - something Zhao would know, as she herself made an MCU movie. Its origin, Jac Schaeffer's show WandaVision, was the first MCU TV show to premiere on Disney+, and it set a high bar for the rest of the franchise - one that sparked a movie, two spinoff series, and countless comparisons to other shows.
In the 21st century, superhero stories are often judged on how realistic they are - how "gritty," how dark, how "adult." It's never been more visible than with Batman. Between Christopher Nolan's take in the Dark Knight trilogy and the still-ongoing takes by Matt Reeves, it seems like the Caped Crusader was built for the Nirvana-scored, brooding tone of tragic flashbacks and smeared eyeliner.
