By Germain Lussier/July 12, 2013 5:30 pm EST The Hollywood Reporter posted the news. Hugh Jackman and James Mangold will be on hand for The Wolverine. Andy Serkis Jason Clarke, Keri Russell and Matt Reeves will be there for Apes. As for that surprise? I’d guess it’s footage from X-Men: Days of Future Past, though a reveal of something Fantastic Four would be just that.

Exactly how he’ll be worked into the films has been a bit murkier. It’s assumed that the Mad Titan will appear in The Guardians of the Galaxy and The Avengers 2, but now Joss Whedon has suggested that he may not actually be the main villain in either....
LOL: How ‘Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace’ Should Have Ended By Germain Lussier/Feb. 4, 2014 9:00 am EST In 1999, anticipation was so high for George Lucas’ Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace, many of us initially overlooked the film’s obvious problems.

Paul Feig To Develop R-Rated Comedies For Fox By Angie Han/Jan. 10, 2013 10:55 am EST Feig’s credits include the family-friendly Unaccompanied Minors and network TV series like Freaks and Geeks, Arrested Development, and The Office, but it was the raunchy Bridesmaids that launched his career into a whole new level. Still, I’d argue that it’s not his willingness to get dirty that makes his movies so great, but his ability to imbue those projects with heart and fill them with well-developed characters....

Video History Lesson: Who Are The Guardians Of The Galaxy? By Angie Han/March 14, 2013 12:25 pm EST Many of the superheroes that make it to the big screen get there because they’re so major they need no explanation.
