Black Adam: Dwayne Johnson Hints at Dark Tone for New DC Movie

The long-awaited Black Adam movie is now filming in Atlanta, and Dwayne Johnson, in his typical style, is letting fans know exactly what’s what. “If you know the comic book mythology, then you know where his pain comes from,” Johnson wrote in an Instagram post. “His rage. His wife and children killed. His people brutally enslaved. He is not a superhero, but rather a champion. Champion of the poor and beaten down. Champion of the people. And he is the most unstoppable force in the DC UNIVERSE.” Johnson has been attached to the role of Black Adam for many years…

Three years after the release of the original The Meg, which swallowed up an astonishing $530 million worldwide at the box office, director Ben Wheatley — fresh off his eerie new horror film In The Earth — is deep in pre-production on a sequel to the 2018 thriller that pitted puny humans against a couple of oversized prehistoric sharks. “I’m storyboarding at the moment on Meg 2,” Wheatley says when we catch up with him for the release of In The Earth. “It’s been going on for four months, five months.

Warning: contains spoilers for the It’s a Sin finale Five-part 1980s-set AIDS drama It’s a Sin would have been three hours longer if creator Russell T Davies had his way. Speaking at Damian Barr’s Literary Salon, as reported by the Huffington Post, the screenwriter confirmed that there were originally plans for eight instalments, another housemate with their own story, and a final episode that would have revisited the characters in the present day.  Given the opportunity, Davies says he would have shown Lydia West’s Jill in her mid-50s going to visit an elderly Valerie Tozer (Keeley Hawes), the mother to Olly Alexander’s lead Ritchie.…

Godzilla vs. Kong Trailer Promises Epic Final Battle, Hints at Larger History

It’s the championship bout that we’ve all been waiting for…and apparently it’s happened before. No, we’re not talking about 1962’s Toho classic King Kong vs. Godzilla, which brought the big ape from Skull Island and the nuclear-powered dinosaur from the Sea of Japan into conflict for the first time onscreen. But as we find out in the first trailer for Godzilla vs. Kong — the fourth entry in the modern-day series of films known as the “Monsterverse” — these two gigantic icons of monster mythology have possibly met before…in the distant past. “The myths are real,” says Rebecca Hall, one…

WandaVision: Marvel Comics Accurate Vision Costume Hints at Mystical Story

The first full trailer for Marvel’s WandaVision dropped during the 2020 Emmys, and with it came a TON of new information about the show. But there’s one quick little nod to comics history that might herald a shift in how the Scarlet Witch and Vision are portrayed in the greater Marvel Cinematic Universe. For a brief moment, Vision joined his wife the Scarlet Witch in wearing a comics-accurate costume. That’s right: he’s rocking the big yellow cape, the drab green body, and the diamond. Even if it’s only for a second, and clearly during trick or treating, it’s still there,…

The Wrath of Khan Producer Hints at New Potential Star Trek Movie

Den of Geek recently had the opportunity to speak at length with Robert Sallin, producer of Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (1982). The film is Sallin’s sole feature film production credit, but it’s a huge one, as the picture — which pitted Captain Kirk and the crew of the Enterprise against their old nemesis Khan and ended with the death of Mr. Spock — is still held as the gold standard of Star Trek movies. Hired by executive producer Harve Bennett — who in turn was recruited by Paramount to save the franchise after 1979’s Star Trek: The…
