James McAvoy Will Be Bald In The Next X-Men!

In a recent interview with the Huffington Post Prof X actor James McAvoy (Wanted) divulged that his character will finally lose his hair in the next X-Men installment. McAvoy said "I'll be older in this one, [And] I think I'm losing my hair finally. And, yeah, that's kind of all I know. I got an email from the [producer/writer Simon Kinberg] who informed me he was getting dead excited about stuff, but he didn't want to divulge anything for a couple of weeks, so I really don't know. It does seem fairly global, if we're talking apocalypse. Maybe it's just the character's name, but I think the nature of the film is going to be fairly apocalyptic." X-Men: Apocalypse is expected to start shooting in April and will be out in theaters in 2016.

Andy Serkis Has Role In 'Avengers: AOU' !

A few weeks back, The King of Mo-Cap acting Andy Serkis (Dawn of the Planet of the Apes) was called to the Avengers: Age of Ultron set to help Hulk actor Mark Ruffalo (13 Going On 30) perfect his performance. Now Hitfix is reporting that Serkis was there for more than just to help out Ruffalo and may have an actual role in the film. Today Hitfix's Drew McWeeny wrote about his sources on the set saying "...They clarified that he (Andy Serkis) is only playing one character in the film, and that the nature of that role is still meant to be a secret."

So who is this secret character that Serkis is playing? So many possibilities. With his mo-cap skills he can legitimately play just about anyone in the MCU. Whoever it is, I guarantee that it will be a scene stealer. Serkis's Gollum and Caesar performances are iconic and I expect nothing less from him as a Marvel character.

I loved Cap 2 and X-Men: DOFP, but Dawn of the Planet of the Apes is my most anticipated movie of the summer. I am on the edge of my seat for every word Caesar speaks. Gonna be insanely epic.

Netflix's 'Daredevil' Adds Rosario Dawson

Netflix's Daredevil announced today the addition of Rosario Dawson (Sin City: A Dame To Kill For) to it's cast. Dawson's role is currently unspecified, but according to Marvel's Head of Telvision Jeph Loeb (Smallville) “Her role in the series is absolutely critical to Matt Murdock’s journey to become the hero we know as Daredevil.” 

Dawson could be playing any number of characters. The most likely suspect in my opinion is Karen Page, Daredevil's longtime girlfriend who is later murdered by Bullseye. Hopefully if I'm right, Bullseye's casting will be right around the corner. Netflix's Daredevil will be available to stream in early 2015.

Daredevil Dance Sequence? I think Yes!

Superhero Women Crush Wednesday (6/18/14)

Hey guys! its Wednesday we all know what that means. Time to crush on some of the ladies in the super hero world.

Actress: Anna Paquin

This week for my crush, I decided to choose Anna Paquin. Paquin is best known for her role as Sookie on True Blood, but I chose her because of her Rogue in the X-Men franchise. Anna is a great actress and through out all the X-Men movies that she was in, I loved the way she portrayed Rogue. I was very pleased to see her return in Days of Future Past after the time line was reset. She has great looks, and is a fantastic actress, and hopefully we can see more of her in the upcoming X-Men Apocalypse reprising her mutant role.

Character Crush: Barbara Gordon (Batgirl or Oracle)

Barbara Gordon has had quite a journey over the years. She became a capable crime fighter alongside Batman. During that time engaged in an on-again off-again with Dick Grayson. Then the Joker paralyzed her in the famous storyline The Killing Joke. Most people would wallow in sorrow or give up on the vigilante lifestyle for good. Instead Barbara didn't give up. She used her computer skills to reinvent herself as a guide to the Bat-family known as Oracle. For years Oracle was an essential part of the Batman mythos until current continuity had Babs get her legs back and take back the mantle of Batgirl. No matter what future obstacles Barbara may face, she will always come out a greater hero.

Barbara's Batgirl first showed up in Batman: The Animated Series in the episode Shadow of the Bat Pt. 1+2. An amazing two parter with a great score. Give it a watch sometime.

Director Edgar Wright Exits 'Ant-Man'

CBM.com has reported that Marvel Studios and director Edgar Wright (Hot Fuzz) have parted ways due to "creative differences". Wright was set to first Marvel's Ant-Man or the first film of their Phase 3. Wright spent 6 years developing the project. The Studio will have to quickly find a replacement because the rest of the crew and cast are set to shoot. This a big blow to Marvel Studios that has had trouble with actors and directors in the past. When you are owned by the Big Mouse it's his way or the highway. My guess is Wright probably tried to inject some of his brand of comedy to the superhero genre and Mickey would have none of it because it doesn't fit into Disney's "family friendly agenda". Or maybe he really did just have "creative differences. well whatever, Fight the Power Edgar! Ant-Man is still expected Summer 2015.

Zac Efron Up for Role in Upcoming Marvel Project?!

So CBM is reporting that Zac Efron is up for a role in an upcoming Marvel project. They suspected that it could be the Daredevil or an Iron Fist project. Here are my thoughts after reading this article which I will post on the bottom. So I saw Neighbors last night with him and Seth Rogan and I found it hilarious. I thought they both were great and it was a strange team up but non the less funny. As far as Efron being in a role such Dare Devil or Iron Fist, I'm a little on the fence. Not to take anything away from the kid he's making his way up the actor pole and getting all these great deals on movies. But the way I see it, the fan boy community is a tough community to please. Ben Affleck can't even catch a break for playing Batman, I can't begin to think what they would do if they saw him as Dare Devil or Iron Fist. Personally I would give him the benefit of the doubt, I've been wrong before, and who knows he could be amazing. What do you guys think? Is Zac Efron as Dare Devil or Iron Fist a good call by Marvel, or should he leave the super hero rolls to the big guys? Let us know in the comments!
