The story follows Moon Knight as he battles Varnae, the first vampire in Marvel history, who is a demon connected to the god Ba’al.

Varnae isn’t a new character in the comics. He was an ancient sorcerer from Atlantis who became the first vampire through a ritual with the Darkhold. As the creator of all vampires, he ruled over them for centuries.

Pedro Pascal shared a collection of behind-the-scenes photos from Gladiator II, and fans were delighted to see not one, not two, but three slides dedicated to actress May Calamawy. The Egyptian-Palestinian star was part of the film but all of her scenes were reportedly cut from the final edit.

This move drew massive backlash from fans and the reason remains unclear, but what’s evident now is that Pascal expressed support for his costar.

Pedro Pascal Uploads Gladiator II Set Photos With May Calamawy

May Calamawy was meant to have a significant role in Ridley Scott’s Gladiator II, but it came as a shock to everyone when her scenes were ultimately removed in the theatrical version. This prompted speculation from the audience. The sequel movie was supposed to be her biggest breakout performance since Disney+’s Moon Knight.

The Pope’s Exorcist’s director Julius Avery has taken over directing duties on AGC Studios’ They Found Us, with production in Australia anticipated to start in the first half of 2025.

AGC Studios is financing and co-producing the project with Temple Hill Entertainment. Neill Blomkamp was previously set to direct the project. Joel Kinneman is no longer attached to star and casting is underway. The feature was originally scheduled to shoot in Saudi Arabia.

They Found Us is based on a screenplay by Moon Knight and Fantastic Four writer Jeremy Slater and follows a father and daughter who undertake a...

A year and a half ago, it was announced that Neill Blomkamp, the director of District 9, Elysium, Chappie, Demonic, and Gran Turismo, was preparing to go into production on an alien abduction thriller called They Found Us, which had Joel Kinnaman of The Suicide Squad and the RoboCop remake attached to star. At first, the plan was to film in Australia, but then the decision was made to film in Saudia Arabia instead. About seven months after the first announcement, pre-production shut down so the project could rework its financial structure while hostility in the region where filming was going to take place increased due to the Israel-Gaza conflict. Now, Deadline reports that They Found Us is moving forward again, with the filming location shifting back over to Australia and Julius Avery of Overlord and The Pope’s Exorcist replacing Blomkamp as director.

When Blomkamp was at the helm,...

Julius Avery (Samaritan, Overlord, The Pope’s Exorcist) has come on board to direct They Found Us, an alien abduction thriller from Stuart Ford’s AGC Studios being co-produced with Temple Hill (Smile, Twilight franchises)

Ford and Temple Hill’s John Fischer will act as executive producers. AGC International will handle international sales and co-rep US rights with UTA Independent Film Group.

District 9 helmer Neill Blomkamp was originally attached to the project, with Joel Kinnaman to star as a father who tries to mend his broken relationship with his daughter during a camping trip in the Utah wilderness, only to be attacked by a hostile extraterrestrial, determined to kidnap them and take them to an unknown and terrifying alien world.

Mortal Kombat director Simon McQuoid is back at the helm for the sequel Mortal Kombat 2, and while the video game adaptation wrapped production back in January after a bumpy ride through the year of the strikes, they had to go back for some reshoots this past summer. So we still don’t know when this movie is going to be released – but it shouldn’t be much longer before we’re hearing release date news, because the Motion Picture Association ratings board has seen the movie and given it a rating! Mortal Kombat 2 has been rated R for strong bloody violence and gore, and language. The previous movie was rated R for strong bloody violence and language throughout, and some crude references.

The screenplay for Mortal Kombat 2 has been written by Jeremy Slater, who was the lead writer on the Marvel / Disney+ series Moon Knight. Last year,...

There’s no denying that The Fast and the Furious was inspired by a plethora of vehicular heist films that preceded it, but it also ended up being a source of inspiration for many action films that came after it. If we look at the North American market, after the success of the Ff franchise, films like Torque, Need for Speed, and Baby Driver were greenlit. Russia jumped on the trend with Street Racers. So did Malaysia with Evolusi Kl Drift and its sequel Evolusi Kl Drift 2; yes, they weren’t hiding their love for Tokyo Drift. India launched the massively popular Dhoom franchise. The Norwegian film industry also spawned a franchise inspired by the Ff films, i.e., the Borning trilogy. While the French were ahead of the curve with the two Taxi movies, they eventually expanded it into a five-film franchise after the demand for vehicular mayhem increased in the 2000s.

Warner Bros. and New Line Cinema are bringing live action sequel Mortal Kombat 2 to theaters next Halloween, and the film has received its “R” rating from the MPA this week.

Mortal Kombat 2 is rated “R” for “strong bloody violence and gore, and language.”

For the sake of comparison, 2021’s Mortal Kombat movie was similarly rated “R,” but only for “strong bloody violence and language throughout, and some crude references.”

Mortal Kombat 2 comes to theaters October 24, 2025.

You can expect the film to release in IMAX as well as traditional theaters.

Simon McQuoid returns to the director’s seat for Mortal Kombat 2, which will feature a screenplay by Jeremy Slater (“The Exorcist,” “Moon Knight”).

Director Ridley Scott hasn't built such a legacy over his career by doing things halfway, as shown by the early reactions to his latest epic "Gladiator II" (you can check out /Film's review by Chris Evangelista here for more on that). Still, the long-awaited sequel might be making more headlines these days for what's not in it than what actually is. We recently heard it straight from star Denzel Washington that the blockbuster cut a gay kiss between his character and another. Of course, it wouldn't be out of character in the least for Scott to resort to an extended director's cut of the movie sometime down the line and restore even more deleted footage that ended up on the cutting room floor. Now, overseas audiences who've seen "Gladiator II" a smidge earlier than the rest of us are noticing that an actor best known for her Marvel work also...

By September 2018, Marvel Studios began developing limited series for Disney+, focusing on “second-tier” MCU characters who were unlikely to have their own films. These series would feature actors reprising their roles from the films, with Kevin Feige playing a central role in ensuring continuity between the series and the movies

The keyword here is “limited series” as those types of shows have a predetermined number of episodes to tell the story, and they are unlikely to return for a second season with the exceptions being ‘Loki,’ ‘What If…?’ and now ‘X-Men ’97.’

Back when Marvel shows were not tied to Disney+ it was the norm to give them several seasons the prime examples being ‘Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’ and The Defenders Saga which was released on Netflix.

Now Feige’s recent comments seem to indicate that Marvel Studios might take this strategy under consideration again. Speaking to Omelete during this year’s D23 in Brazil,...

Politics and the entertainment industry go way back for neither can really exist without the other. So while the main purpose of actors and actresses is to ‘entertain’ the audience, they cannot really exist in a vacuum given their immense fanbase and influence. This was a feat we saw at the recently held Presidential elections in the US. Similarly, when it comes to situations like wars and conflicts or an issue as indispensable as the Palestine-Israel one, for years celebrities have spoken up in the support of one or the other.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has been going through a bit of a reset in recent years. Certain projects from the franchise haven't been hitting quite as hard with audiences as their sure-fire predecessors did, and it has forced Marvel Studios to re-evaluate which titles and characters to focus on going forward.

Over the past year, there have been reports that projects such as Disney Plus series She-Hulk: Attorney At Law have been quietly cancelled by the studio, while plans have been made to bring back shows such as Hawkeye and Moon Knight for second seasons. Further reports have claimed that film projects such as Eternals, The Marvels, and Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania have had their planned sequels cancelled due to their underperformances at the box office.

The good thing about when a project within the MCU has been cancelled is that there is always a possibility that the character...

Over the years, we have met a lot of great characters in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. That's not surprising, for the franchise has been enriching fans' lives since 2008, with 34 movies and 11 TV shows full of rich and complex characters that it's hard to dislike. And yes, that includes a lot of the villains, because the MCU has produced some of the most famous antagonists in recent cinema history and it's truly impossible to hate them entirely because they are just so good at being bad.

The franchise has used its ongoing Multiverse Saga to introduce audiences to new characters, both on the silver screen and via the multitude of Disney Plus shows that have come along since. Those new characters include Agatha Harkness, Ms. Marvel, Moon Knight, Kate Bishop, She-Hulk, and Captain Carter. And they have successfully made themselves at home in the franchise, with fans eagerly awaiting their returns in future titles.

This article contains spoilers for "Agatha All Along."

Jac Schaeffer's 2024 TV series "Agatha All Along" stars Kathryn Hahn as Agatha Harkness, a wicked sorceress who serves as a nemesis to the Scarlet Witch. The show is a direct spinoff of 2021's "WandaVision," where the character was first introduced. The new series saw Agatha forming a new coven of witches so that they along with her new teenage sidekick Teen (Joe Locke) could face the trials of the Witches' Road, a mysterious process that grants its survivors any wish they want. Agatha lost her witch powers, so she very much would like to have them back. The series also featured Aubrey Plaza as the Rio Vidal aka Death (who was Agatha's ex-girlfriend), as well as living legend, Patti LuPone, Sasheer Zamata, Ali Ahn, and Debra Jo Rupp.

The shows from within the Marvel Cinematic Universe have been a little frustrating to viewers,...

Marvel Television has entertained us with over 10 TV shows since it began expanding the Marvel Cinematic Universe on the small screen via the Disney Plus streaming service, but Moon Knight may have been the most truly gripping of them all. The show marked the live-action debut of the most famous Marvel hero that isn't an X-Man to never appear in the MCU franchise, ending his MCU drought and starting a new chapter for him.

Its greatest strength was, of course, Oscar Isaac, who turned in one of the most nuanced performances in the whole franchise. What he accomplished as Marc Spector and Steven Grant (and of course Moon Knight) was nothing short of outstanding and it was a thrill to watch him perform each and every week throughout the show's six-episode run.

The show completed its first season in spring 2022 and ever since fans have been on tenterhooks waiting to...

Valorant, Riot Games’ tactical first-person shooter, has become a phenomenon not just for its fast-paced and competitive gameplay but also for its rich, immersive narrative. In addition to sharp aim and tactical strategy, players connect with the game’s diverse cast of agents: each one with their own intricate backstory, motives, and personal struggles (that can be uncovered through voice lines and in-game dialogues).

Players are curious about the lore behind the game and all its agents. | Image Credit: Riot Games

From Phoenix’s fiery ambition to Sage’s deep sense of duty, each agent is uniquely crafted. Almost all of the agents have received tons of lore through in-game documents, voice lines, and even cinematic trailers. However, there’s one agent whose backstory seems strangely absent. And that agent is none other than Sova, who has been part of the game from the start.

The Curious Case of Sova...

We’ve seen tons of high-profile games released this year that missed the mark, but Marvel Rivals looks to be heading in the right direction. With a massive boost from the Marvel license, the hype around the game continues to build after new character reveals, and a phenomenal beta gave gamers a taste of what’s to come.

Marvel Rivals is quickly approaching its release, and developer NetEease has confirmed another playable character for the game, Moon Knight. While he looks to be an incredible addition to the game’s already-packed roster, NetEase might’ve dropped the ball by not making him similar to Valorant’s Sage.

Marvel Rivals Has Missed a Great Opportunity With Moon Knight

In Marvel Rivals, Moon Knight will be a Dualist-style character, joining the ranks of Punisher, Winter Solider, and many others. Just...

A viral social post has fans thinking Moon Knight Season 2 may be canceled. 

It has been several years since Oscar Isaac's Moon Knight was last seen. The character debuted as a part of his Disney+ series in March 2022, but a Season 2 of Moon Knight has still not been greenlit, despite "conversations" having reportedly been had on the subject. 

In the years since Moon Knight's end, only one single appearance from the hero has been confirmed for a future MCU project, which is part of the upcoming What If...? Season 3.

In 2021, Marvel gave us WandaVision, the first show set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Since then it's been off to the races, with shows like Loki, Moon Knight, Ms. Marvel and more following. Personally, I feel the decision to expand the MCU to television was a genius idea. In fact, I’d argue that in some ways the shows have been better than the movies because they are able to go more in depth.

With that in mind, we thought we’d look back at all of Marvel Disney+ shows we’ve gotten so far and rank them from worst to best. Bear in mind that being “the worst” doesn’t mean the show was a disaster, because Marvel rarely puts out anything bad. It simply means that it did not match the level of hype and excitement as the other series.

Now, without further adieu, let’s get ranking.

Marvel Studios has been in the business of dominating the silver screen for the past 16 years. In the past four, however, it has turned its attention to the small one, too. The Disney Plus streaming service allowed Kevin Feige and all involved in Hollywood's biggest franchise to tell stories on television, and they wasted little time in producing bangers with the Emmy-winning WandaVision. That was followed by The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Loki, What If...?, and Hawkeye, which made for an incredible first year of TV from the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

There have been multiple highs and lows since (and not just on the small screen), with some of the shows not engaging viewers in the way that those aforementioned ones did. And it has all led to Marvel attempting to alter its release strategy, with reports that the studio may end up renewing some of the shows it...

The story of the movies in the 2010s is basically the story of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Iron Man laid the foundation in 2008, but The Avengers turned the franchise into a proper phenomenon in 2012. From there, Disney rode the wave all the way to the bank. Things climaxed in 2019, with three Marvel movies — Captain Marvel, Avengers: Endgame and Spider-Man: Far From Home — all making over a billion dollars.

That was around the time the streaming wars were really getting underway, so Disney and Marvel Studios set their sights on a new realm to conquer: television. Things got off to a solid start with WandaVision, a surprisingly esoteric show about Wanda Maximoff that took inspiration from, of all things, sitcoms through the ages. Back in 2021, people were enraptured by this show; the buzz was very real.

And then things seemed to taper off. The Falcon and the Winter Soldier came next,...

Exclusive: Bulldog Film Distribution has picked up the feature Signs of Life for a theatrical release in the UK and Ireland.

Moviehouse Entertainment has also joined the film to handle international sales ahead of the upcoming American Film Market.

The film stars Sarah-Jane Potts as a silent protagonist, and actor David Ganly is her highly vocal foil. The film was predominantly shot using exteriors in southern Europe.

The story centers around Potts’ character who attempts to shift her life by fleeing abroad but, on arrival at her destination, meets with danger. A chance encounter with another solo traveler offers her an unexpected solution and a chain of surprising events unfolds between the two strangers which will either make or break them.

The score is by Oscar-winning composer Anne Dudley who also serves as Producer with Millson and Roger Dudley.

Marvel fans tuning in for the season finale of Agatha All Along on Wednesday (October 30) are likely wondering if the show will return for a second season on Disney+.

The series, which stars the likes of Kathryn Hahn, Joe Locke, Aubrey Plaza and Patti LuPone, premiered in September. It picks up where the previous show WandaVision left off and has been heralded as a breath of fresh air within the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

With good reviews from critics and fans alike, it seems like Agatha All Along would be renewed for another season. However, that might not be the case.

Keep reading to find out more…

If you were unaware, Agatha All Along, like many of the MCU shows on Disney+ so far, has been billed as a miniseries. That traditionally means that there are no plans for a second season.

Thus far, Marvel has only brought back Loki for a second season.

Egyptian producer Mohamed Hefzy said securing international sales remains a challenge for Arab films, as he presented two features at El Gouna Film Festival (October 24-November 1).

Hefzy, head and co-founder of the Cairo-based production company Film Clinic, produced Egyptian filmmaker Jaylan Auf’s feature debut The Inevitable Journey To Find A Wedding Dress, which premieres in El Gouna’s narrative competition. He was also present for a retrospective screening of his own writing debut Snakes And Ladders (2001).

The seasoned writer/producer noted that, while many Arabic and Egyptian films tour festivals worldwide and often win awards, securing sales is problematic.

It’s been two and a half years since Moon Knight wrapped up with a major cliffhanger. Remember that intense final scene when Harrow encounters Khonshu in the car, only to learn the god still has a human avatar—Jake Lockley—who then shoots Harrow, seemingly also ending Ammit’s threat?

Since then, news about Marc’s return to the MCU has been scarce. But now, Mohamed Diab, director of the first, third, fifth, and sixth episodes of Marvel Studios’ Moon Knight, has teased what’s next for Marc Spector in the MCU:

“You never know – with Marvel nothing is called finished. There could be a film, or he could go into another universe. Right now nothing is in talks but I definitely with Moon Knight, I would love to be involved in anything else and it could happen for sure. I have a great relationship with them.”

“Working on Moon Knight was amazing,...

It’s been two and a half years since ‘Moon Knight’ ended on a huge cliffhanger Since then, we haven’t received much news on Marc’s MCU return.

Finally, Mohamed Diab, who directed the first, third, fifth, and sixth episodes of Marvel Studios’ ‘Moon Knight,’ teased Marc Spector’s MCU future:

“You never know – with Marvel nothing is called finished. There could be a film, or he could go into another universe. Right now nothing is in talks but I definitely with Moon Knight, I would love to be involved in anything else and it could happen for sure. I have a great relationship with them.”

If you ever wanted to live like a Star Wars star, now is your chance! Do you have a few million dollars laying around? If so, this is the article for you!

Star Wars sequel trilogy actor Oscar Isaac is selling his New York penthouse in Brooklyn. The massive four bedroom, three bathroom apartment (which is huge by New York standards) is at the cross section between Fort Greene, Park Slope, Boerum Hill, and Cobbie Hill, according to The New York Post. If this is something you're interested in, you just need to shell out about $4.5 million dollars which is what it's currently listed.

Isaac has owned this property since 2018, where he got it for the same price he is listing it for. It was on the market a bit last year before it was taken down.

Maybe the real estate change is thanks to the star's rise the last several years.

Filmmaker Mohamed Diab (Cairo 678) directed the first, third, fifth, and sixth episodes of Marvel Studios' Moon Knight, surely making him a top contender to take charge of another story featuring the character.

The Disney+ series ended on a huge cliffhanger; while Marc Spector and Steven Grant seemingly rid themselves of Khonshu, we'd later learn that a third personality - Jake Lockley - was secretly working as the Moon God's enforcer.

Updates on plans for Moon Knight have been few and far between over the past two years and Diab shared what he knows about the Fist of Khonshu's future in an interview with Deadline.

"You never know - with Marvel nothing is called finished. There could be a film, or he could go into another universe," the filmmaker shared. "Right now nothing is in talks but I definitely with Moon Knight, I would love to be involved in anything else...

Exclusive: Marvel’s Moon Knight Director Mohamed Diab has revealed fresh details about his new feature Lion, starring Egyptian megastar Mohamed Ramadan in a role inspired by Ancient Rome rebel slave Spartacus.

“It’s a period piece, a kind of Spartacus meets Braveheart set in 1850s Egypt,” said Diab, talking to Deadline on the fringes of Egypt’s El Gouna Film Festival.

Currently mid-way through shooting in Cairo, Lion marks Diab’s first picture back in his native Egypt since 2016 breakthrough Clash. In between times, he made the Palestine-set drama Amira, followed by directing Moon Knight for Marvel.

Diab has revealed very little about the new movie, which was originally announced under the title of Black Lion and is being billed as his most ambitious Arab-language production to date.

“It’s about slavery in the 1850s. It’s an epic film. It’s not based on a real person but inspired by true events.

Blade was recently removed from Marvel Studios' slate, but it sounds like the movie is still very much alive.

Though the long-awaited MCU reboot won't be arriving in theaters next year, scooper Daniel Richtman believes that it is still on track to commence production in the UK at some point in 2025. He also notes that it will be "dark and R-rated," and have a "smaller budget than other recent Marvel films."

Richtman also claims that a new script is currently being worked on.

Last we heard, the latest draft by Eric Pearson - who is the sixth writer to have been assigned to the project after Michael Green, Stacy Osei-Kuffour, Michael Starrbury, Beau DeMayo and Nic Pizzolatto - had "finally satisfied everyone involved," but clearly this isn't the case if they've gone back to the drawing board yet again.

As previously reported, The Cosmic Circus' Alex Perez believes the real...

The moment that Marvel Studios made the decision to expand the Marvel Cinematic Universe through multiple different streaming shows on the Disney Plus platform, it became an opportunity to showcase some of the McU's most beloved - and underappreciated - characters. Clearly, Marvel felt the same way as fan-favorites like Wanda Maximoff, Vision, Bucky Barnes, Sam Wilson, Hawkeye and Nick Fury all got their chances to shine. And yes, of course, Loki did too.

Tom Hiddleston reprised his role as the McU's nefarious trickster in Loki, a story about the God of Mischief's attempts to protect the sacred timeline from major threats. The first season was good, but the second was amazing; featuring Loki and the Time Variance Authority attempting to stop the Temporal Loom from exploding.

Since the show ended, however, there have been very little updates regarding Loki, the show, or if it will be widely available...

Last night, we got the disappointing (though not entirely unexpected) news that Marvel Studios had once again removed the Blade reboot from its slate, with the movie now delayed indefinitely.

Blade has been plagued by production woes ever since it was first announced over four years ago, going through a number of directors and writers. When the latest filmmaker enlisted to helm the project, Yann Demange, stepped away, it was widely speculated that the movie would ultimately be shelved, but we were assured that it was still moving forward with Mahershala Ali attached to star as the Daywalker.

Despite this latest setback, The Cosmic Circus' Alex Perez believes Blade has not been scrapped, and was pushed back again because Marvel is prioritizing Multiversal stories in the build-up to Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars.

The real reason why #Blade isn’t getting done is because the story is disconnected from the rest of the Multiverse Saga.

Last December, the folks at Cosmic Circus dropped the rumor that a team of supernatural characters known as the Midnight Sons might be coming to the Marvel Cinematic Universe… and now, industry scooper Daniel Richtman has revealed that sources indicate Marvel might be putting a Midnight Sons movie on the fast track to production! According to Richtman, Marvel is currently looking to get a director attached to the project.

One of my favorite comic book story arcs is the “Rise of the Midnight Sons”, which saw Doctor Strange overseeing the formation of a team of supernatural heroes – Ghost Rider, Johnny Blaze, Morbius, the Nightstalkers, and Darkhold characters Vicki Montesi, Louise Hastings, and Sam Buchanan – who were brought together to battle Lilith, the Mother of All Demons, and her evil offspring, the Lilin. There have been different variations of the Midnight Sons over the years, with other team members like Moon Knight,...

Ready for another round of Beef with double the star power? The Emmy Award-winning Netflix original comedy-drama series is taking the anthology route with its long-rumored second installment. After months and months of whispers, Netflix officially confirmed Beef season 2 on Oct. 22 and announced the four leading cast members that will be beefing.

While the first season was led by Steven Yeun and Ali Wong, Beef season 2 will star Oscar Isaac, Carey Mulligan, Charles Melton, and Cailee Spaeny. The names of the talented stars' characters have yet to be revealed, as do a number of other details about the second installment, including further cast members and a production start date.

However, the streaming service did reveal that season 2 will contain eight episodes this time around, down two episodes from season 1's order of 10 episodes. Each episode will still be around 30 minutes, though. On top of how many episodes we'll be getting...

“Beef” is officially moving forward with a second season at Netflix, with Oscar Isaac, Carey Mulligan, Charles Melton, and Cailee Spaeny set to star.

It had long been rumored that a second season of the series was moving forward but nothing had been officially confirmed until now. The official logline for the new season states, “A young couple witnesses an alarming fight between their boss and his wife, triggering chess moves of favors and coercion in the elitist world of a country club and its Korean billionaire owner.”

The season will consist of eight 30-minute episodes. Lee Sung Jin returns as creator, showrunner, and executive producer. Steven Yeun, Ali Wong, and Jake Schreier also executive produce. A24 is the studio.

The first season of “Beef” starred Wong and Yeun as two people involved in a road rage incident that quickly escalates and disrupts both of their lives. The series debuted...

The Avengers became the biggest thing in the world after a flurry of successful blockbuster films took over Hollywood in the past two decades. Year after year, the Marvel Cinematic Universe grew and dominated the film industry and dipped its toes on the streaming front through Disney Plus. It is time for the universe to expand even further to a different format that could rival the storytelling and spectacle of the live-action film counterparts.

Video games could be President Kevin Feige’s next frontier and the definitive interactive experience for the gaming community after the disappointing 2020 game crashed and burned. Perhaps Marvel Studios could succeed where others have failed.

What Do We Know About the upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe series Daredevil: Born Again? More in recent weeks than ever before. The sequel to the Netflix street-level superhero series has been one of the most anticipated MCU projects since it was announced. With Vincent D’Onofrio and Charlie Cox already having appeared in Hawkeye, Echo, She-Hulk: Attorney At Law, and Spider-Man: No Way Home, fans have a tease of what they can expect from this new dive into Matt Murdock and Wilson Fisk. So, let’s dive in and take a look at what we know about Daredevil: Born Again.

Season one will have nine episodes and has a release date

Development on Daredevil: Born Again began back in March of 2022. At the time, Matt Corman and Chris Ord were hired as head writers with the aim to create a lighter tone and episodic structure compared to the Netflix series. When...

The Disney Plus streaming service has changed how we consume Marvel media. Now, we can binge-watch new adventures from our favorite Marvel Cinematic Universe superheroes on the small screen instead of (or as well as) going to the movie theaters to watch them on the big one. It's true; the MCU has expanded exponentially since it launched the first of those streaming TV shows, adding favorites such as WandaVision, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, Loki, Hawkeye, Agatha All Along, Moon Knight and more to the franchise.

It has also expanded into animation with projects that run parallel to the MCU ones. Examples of this are What If...?, which is adjacent to the MCU, and X-Men '97, which is a sequel series to the classic '90s animated show X-Men: The Animated Series. That's just a sign of what the streamer can do with classic Marvel characters, producing projects that...

Disney has had a rough few years, and while it seems that the House of Mouse might be learning, there are some things that the entertainment giant has been repeating regardless of the losses that it has generated. Especially when it comes to Marvel, arguably the company’s cash cow, there seems to be a lack of clarity as to what works and what doesn’t.

Even with great concepts like Moon Knight and Ms. Marvel, the Marvel machinery has failed to capitalize on what makes streaming great. While HBO has marched on prestige dramas that exceed the hour limit routinely, Marvel has stuck to making minuscule episodes that never give its characters enough room to break or even develop fully.

WB, leveraging HBO,...

The very first test-screenings for Captain America: Brave New World (then known as New World Order) were said to have been met with a mostly negative response, which is believed to have prompted Marvel Studios to order extensive reshoots.

Additional photography for the sequel took place over a 4-month period, with Marvel enlisting Moon Knight writer Matthew Orton to pen new scenes and material for the film. Reshoots are the norm (especially for major studio tentpoles), but such a significant period of AP led to speculation that the studio must be making some major changes to the story.

Some new test-screenings reportedly took place last week, and, based on what we're hearing, this version of the movie didn't go over much better.

Apparently, two screenings were held, with attendees split into groups with either a green or red bracelet. An initial report from World of Reel claimed that two cuts of the film were shown,...

The conclusion of Chicago Med Season 9 brought unexpected news for fans of the show. Shortly after the season finale aired, it was announced that Dominic Rains, who played trauma surgeon Crockett Marcel, would not be returning to the medical drama.

Season 10, which recently premiered, revealed that following the devastating events, Dr. Marcel has moved to Boston for a fresh start leaving behind Gaffney Chicago Medical Center. While the exact reasons behind Rains’ departure remain unclear, some speculations could potentially explain his exit from the long-running series.

FX is heading back to Oklahoma. The network has picked up a drama pilot from creator Sterlin Harjo (“Reservation Dogs”) and star Ethan Hawke to series, Variety first reported and Gold Derby can confirm.

The new Ultimate Universe was created by the Maker, a deranged alternate-reality version of Reed Richards, to be a world without superheroes. Manipulating his way through the timestream to rob our favourite characters of their destinies, the Maker and his Council rule the earth from the shadows, twisting the truth to ensure their domination.

Recently, the Maker has been put in a 16-month captivity. When he emerges, he'll find a new generation of heroes ready to fight back, and we've learned today that the Guardians of the Galaxy will be among them.

The cover reveals and synopses for January's issues spotlight the debut of the Ultimate version of that team, the climactic showdown between Black Panther and Moon Knight, Kraven's Ultimate Hunt; and the X-Men's rise as a new band of mutant superheroes.

Hailing from the far future, the new Guardians consist of Star-Lord, Captain Marvel, Ultimate Nullifier, and Cosmo.

Despite it now being nearly two years since Warner Bros. Discovery announced that it was putting its beleaguered DC Comics line of superhero films into the hands of actual money makers James Gunn and Peter Safran, the whole apparatus has still felt pretty tentative to date. Partly, that's just because,...

While the last few years have been quite tumultuous for the DC brand, they have been consistently doing justice to its rogues gallery. With the new installment in Matt Reeves’ The Batman Universe, The Penguin, opening to critical acclaim, which will be followed by next month’s Joker: Folie à Deux, things are looking pretty good for DC’s troubled souls.

The history of Marvel’s television series is a complex one. Way before the MCU, several Marvel-based television series were made, including Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Netflix series, but they are not considered to be part of the MCU, at least not in the way you’d think.

And while Marvel has, in the meantime, gotten hold of the rights to these characters and is going to integrate them into the MCU, the past is the past.

MCU’s television history starts with WandaVision, which premiered in 2021. Since then, a total of 12 series have been released as of the time of writing, with more coming out in the upcoming months and years. In light of that, have you ever wondered how these shows have fared with the critics?
