Gwyneth Paltrow will reportedly exit the Marvel Cinematic Universe after Avengers: Endgame. The actress told Variety that the April film will be her last hurrah as Stark Industries exec Pepper Potts, whom she debuted in 2008 at the start of the MCU.

“I mean, I’m a bit old to be in a suit and all that at this point,” she said (Pepper suited up in 2013’s Iron Man 3 after nearly dying in battle). “I feel very lucky that I did it, because I actually got talked into it…It was such a wonderful experience making the first ‘Iron Man’ and then to watch how important it has become to the fans.”

Marvel’s The Punisher and Jessica Jones are getting axed.

Don’t freak out, Jessica Jones fans — the third season of the show will still be streamed. But the relationship between Netflix and Marvel looks like it’s over. The two struck a deal in 2013 that involved four series based on Marvel characters, as well as The Defenders. 

Confirming that The Punisher “will not return for a third season,” Netflix nodded to showrunner Steve Lightfoot and the crew in a statement to Deadline. “We are proud to showcase their work on Netflix for years to come.”  Read more…

Mixing super heroes, memes, girl power, and social justice in one movie is just about the most 21st century theme you could think of. That movie is Black Panther, and it just became the first super hero movie to be nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars.

Aside from that, it’s also nominated for Best Adapted Screenplay, Achievement in Production Design, Best Original Song, Achievement in Costume Design, Best Original Score, Achievement in Sound Editing, and Achievement in Sound Mixing. YO.

This is truly a milestone — not just for Marvel or the film community, but in terms of representation as well. Read more…

Spider-Man’s European vacation gets cut short in ‘Far From Home’ trailer

sudshr47 January 15, 2019

Even your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man needs a vacation. Between all of the mild-mannered studenting and Avenger-style world saving (not mention what transpired during Infinity War), Peter Parker could clearly use a break. The first trailer for July’s Far From Home finds Parker going Griswold, for a little European vacation, sans-suit (and Lindsey Buckingham soundtrack). But […]

Audi partners with Disney to entertain car passengers with VR

Audi is getting into the entertainment business — well, sort of…

The car-maker is collaborating with Disney Games and Interactive Experiences this week at CES to demonstrate how a car’s backseat can be more than just a place to hangout while you travel to your final destination.

Using a virtual reality headset in this limited-run experience, passengers could shoot lasers at asteroids and drones, and fly through space with Marvel’s Rocket Raccoon guiding them around.

Iron Man also makes an appearance and flies alongside the car. But this isn’t simply sticking on a headset and pressing play — the VR world matches what’s happening with the car in the real world. If the car turns, so does the rocket ship. You brake suddenly, so does the game.  Read more…

sudshr47 January 2, 2019

In 2009, Disney paid $4 billion to acquire Marvel. Less than 10 years later, in 2018, Marvel movies accounted for more than half of Disney’s $7.3 billion box office haul.
