Disney reportedly rejected Lucasfilm’s proposal to delay Solo: A Star Wars Story to December 2018 in the wake of the spinoff’s infamous production woes. When the film was first confirmed by the studio in 2015, LEGO Movie directors Phil Lord and Chris Miller were set to helm, but things went catastrophically wrong. Four months into production, the duo was fired due to creative differences, and Ron Howard came in to replace them....

Warner Bros. is reportedly prepping for Ben Affleck to no longer be the DC Extended Universe’s Batman. Affleck’s relationship with Batman has been controversial from day one. Upon his casting, the majority of people could not fathom the idea of Affleck playing the Dark Knight after what happened with Daredevil. Once the perception started to turn around, his DCEU debut in Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice was incredibly divisive. Even though he was one of the brightest spots of the film, he could not shake the backlash and pressure that was suddenly on his shoulders....

Patrick Melrose actor Benedict Cumberbatch is demanding equal pay for his female co-stars, claiming roles should be turned down if this condition is not met. 2017 proved to be a difficult year for the movie industry as the Harvey Weinstein scandal triggered an avalanche of women to come forward with tales of abuse and inappropriate behavior in the business. This led to the #MeToo and #Time’sUp movements taking center stage at various award ceremonies, as actors of both genders took a stand against the treatment of women in the world of TV and film....

The Big Bang Theory’s Penny gave a reasonable reason for not wanting to have kids with Leonard, explaining that she doesn’t want to risk losing their perfect life together by getting pregnant and raising a family, but this might not actually be the truth. Early this season, Penny revealed that she doesn’t want to have kids ever - which broke her husband’s heart given his eagerness to have children. While the issue was never brought up again after Leonard suddenly agreed to his wife’s wishes, it remains unresolved....

The cast of Bill & Ted Face the Music continues to grow, with both Kristen Schaal and Holland Taylor signing on. The titular pair, played by Alex Winter and Keanu Reeves - and known collectively as the rock band Wyld Stallyns - first debuted in 1989’s Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure.

As the leader of Wakanda’s security and intelligence outfit in Black Panther, Danai Gurira’s Okoye is an extremely busy woman. While each Marvel movie has to set up its world, conceit, and cast of characters, films like Thor and Guardians of the Galaxy have had considerably more work to do as they’re not solely based on Earth. While Black Panther will take place entirely on our planet, everything from the trailer to the official Black Panther images make it clear: the world of Wakanda will be like nothing audiences have seen onscreen before....

Kimberly Peirce (Boys Don’t Cry) is another name added to the Black Widow movie director shortlist, but she is probably not the frontrunner for the job. That doesn’t mean Peirce won’t get the job, though. In the end, it all depends on Marvel Studios’ preferences, as well as the availability of those being considered before her. Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) first appeared in the Marvel Cinematic Universe in Iron Man 2....

The latest Captain Marvel trailer fixed the marketing problems that have been plaguing the next MCU film: it’s good! A new look at the movie, which stars Brie Larson as the half-human, half-Kree Carol Danvers teaming up with a two-eyed Nick Fury in the 1990s, released during the College National Championship on ESPN to coincide with the ticket release, and despite it being the third proper trailer, it’s the first that’s really sold what Captain Marvel’s actually about....

HBO has officially ordered Curb Your Enthusiasm season 10, with filming on the next season of Larry David’s comedy series beginning in 2018. Curb Your Enthusiasm, which ran eight seasons between 2000 and 2011, was never really cancelled, and the line from HBO was always that the comedy series would return at some point if Larry David felt like doing another season. Last year, it was confirmed that he would, and a ninth season of Curb aired on HBO this fall, following a six-year hiatus....

WARNING: This article contains SPOILERS for The Terrifics #1 – The first issue of DC Comics’ new science-action series The Terrifics ended with a shocking cliffhanger, which revealed that another one of writer Alan Moore’s original characters has been assimilated into the DC Comics Universe. This follows hot-on-the-heels of Alan Moore’s creation Promethea appearing in Justice League of America and the publication of Doomsday Clock - a sequel series to Moore’s graphic novel Watchmen, which is being produced without any input from Moore or Watchmen artist Dave Gibbons....

The latest word from behind the scenes of The Muppets franchise holds an explanation as to why longtime Kermit the Frog actor Steve Whitmire was fired last October following one season of the rebooted The Muppet Show on ABC. Ever since taking over the role of Kermit following the tragic death of the Muppets’ creator, Jim Henson, in 1990, Whitmire has remained an integral cog in the working machinations of The Muppets Studio....

A new rumor is circulating online suggesting that EA may be on the verge of losing their licensing agreement for Star Wars games.

The latter will introduce us to Stephen Strange, played by Benedict Cumberbatch, in his first standalone movie in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Doctor Strange will feature other major characters from Strange’s mythology, such as Baron Mordo (played by Chiwetel Ejiofor) and their mentor, the Ancient One (Tilda Swinton)....

Ben Affleck says he had a much better time working on Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice with Zack Snyder than on Justice League. Affleck and Snyder’s days of working within the DC Extended Universe are over, and their limited time together cut short what Snyder had planned. After playing Daredevil several years before, Affleck only returned to superhero movies to work with Snyder and bring his vision for an aged Batman to the big screen....

Release Date: Unknown, but possibly 2020 Confirmed Cast: Scarlett Johansson Director: Unknown Writer: Jac Schaeffer The Black Widow Movie Is Finally On Its Way Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow was introduced in 2010’s Iron Man 2, and fans immediately began to ask for a solo film. Although Marvel seemed receptive, for years there was no real news; until May 2015, when Kevin Feige committed the studio to the film. He suggested that it would happen in about four or five years’ time, after the buildup to Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers 4....

Joymasher’s Blazing Chrome is a retraux action game which seeks to woo Contra aficionados with its challenging run-and-gun pixelated gameplay. It walks like a duck and talks like a duck, and even sits squarely on modern hardware like a proud retro duck in glowing 16-bit pixels. Blazing Chrome is a clear example of SNES-level-tech run-and-guns done fairly, but how far does it push the genre past a straightforward representation of it?...
