'S.H.I.E.L.D.': J. August Richards Signs Up In Mystery Role
5 April 2013 12:21 PM, PDT
by Brett White
Fans of the Whedon-verse can commence freaking out, as TV Line has reported that J. August Richards has landed a top secret role in ABC's just-wrapped pilot for a "S.H.I.E.L.D." television series. This news is so juicy and flat-out exciting that it has me questioning whether or not TV Line is playing a belated April Fool's Day prank. If so... not cool, y'all.
But it is April 5th, so this seems incredibly legit. Richards is no stranger to Joss Whedon; he spent four seasons as Gunn on the television series "Angel," endearing himself to "Buffy" and "Angel" fans a million times over with his heartfelt, confident and charming portrayal of Angel Investigations' no-nonsense demon hunter. But who could J. August Richards be playing in "S.H.I.E.L.D."? Let me take a wild guess...
When a Whedon alum shows up in a new Whedon show, they usually play a big role. »

'X-Men: Days Of Future Past': Beast Revealed
5 April 2013 11:54 AM, PDT
by Brett White
Well, actually only half of Beast has been revealed. "X-Men: Days of Future Past" director Bryan Singer has tweeted a picture of the Beast, and we assume that's returning star Nicholas Hoult underneath the blue fur. Hoult is reprising the role that he took on in "X-Men: First Class," and he's one of only four actors from that first film to return.
Singer included a passage from Jeanne Marie Le Prince de Beaumont's Beauty and the Beast in the tweet. Check out the full picture below. As far as first looks go, this one is pretty awesome.
"Many a monster wears the form of a man; it is better of the two to have the heart of a man & the form of a monster" twitter.com/BryanSinger/st…

Awesome, right? This version of Beast looks much more ape-like than the feline-esque makeup worn »

'Iron Man 3' Minimates Show Off Tony Stark's Armory
5 April 2013 11:15 AM, PDT
The final three Marvel Minimates tied in to "Iron Man 3" have been released. The Toys "R" Us exclusives will hit stores later in April, just in time for "Iron Man 3's" May 3rd release date.
While Tony Stark and an Extremis soldier Minimates have already been revealed, this latest batch of collectibles focuses on Tony's array of armor. There's one figurine wearing the Iron Man Mark 17 Artillery Level Rt Suit "Heartbreaker" Armor, another wearing the Mark 33 Enhanced Energy Suit "Silver Centurion" Armor and a third wearing the Mark 41 Skeleton Suit "Bones" Armor.
This isn't the first time we've seen these armors, like the Silver Centurion, in "Iron Man 3's" marketing campaign. Marvel has made Tony's new collection of Iron Man suits a big part of the promotional push for this movie, and even will have them featured at Disneyland starting April 13.

'Iron Man 3' Clip: Tony Stark Sends Mandarin A 'Holiday Greeting'
5 April 2013 10:33 AM, PDT
by Brett White
The first full clip from "Iron Man 3" has arrived, courtesy of Yahoo! Screen. The clip features an impromptu press conference given by Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.), where he challenges the Mandarin (Ben Kingsley) to a face-to-face confrontation. "There's no politics here," Stark exclaims, "just good old-fashioned revenge." But revenge... for what?
Check out the full clip below, and keep your phones safe!
Every smart phone owner had to wince at that, right? And I think we all know how that last bit plays out, thanks to every trailer for the film; locked or unlocked, doesn't make a difference to the Mandarin.
"Iron Man 3" opens on May 3rd.

'Iron Man 3' TV Spot: Meet Mandarin's Army
5 April 2013 10:00 AM, PDT
by Brett White
TV trailers for "Iron Man 3" have been coming fast and furious lately, but this fourth spot contains a lot of new footage and, more importantly, a lot more Mandarin voice. This trailer has much more of an action movie tone, with explosions taking up almost as much screen time as Iron Man himself. The spot also shows off Mandarin's ring collection and dope sunglasses (still waiting for a tie-in line of Ray-Bans). Guy Pearce's Aldrich Killian even gets a line! Check out the full trailer below.

'Amazing Spider-Man 2' TwitPic Round Up: Times Square Set And More
5 April 2013 8:45 AM, PDT
by Brett White
"The Amazing Spider-Man 2" is currently swinging through its shooting schedule on location in New York, and director Marc Webb is documenting the process on a near-daily basis via Twitter. We've reported on these images as they come up, but this week we decided to compile all of his TwitPics (and more) into one mega post. Check out all of the pics, including a touching tribute to Roger Ebert, below.
Here's the 8 legged (appropriate) lighting rig used to light the elaborate replica Times Square set up in Bethpage, NY.

Robert Downey Jr. Celebrates Birthday With Intense 'Iron Man 3' Cake
5 April 2013 7:30 AM, PDT
by Brett White
Tony Stark himself, Robert Downey Jr., celebrated his 47th birthday while he was in South Korea kicking off the "Iron Man 3" promotional tour. And when you're Iron Man, you get an Iron Man cake. Them's the rules! The cake itself is way more impressive than the "Iron Man 3" sheet cake found in your local grocery store. This one's so detailed, it's probably capable of taking off into orbit.
To see Robert Downey Jr.'s elaborate birthday cake in its full glory, check out the picture below. Also take a gander at some of the publicity shots from Robert Downey Jr.'s appearance in South Korea, courtesy of Walt Disney Studios Publicity.
Update: This post now contains 100% more Robert Downey Jr. dancing to "Gangnam Style," thanks to Comic Book Movie.

Marvel Cinematic Universe: Phase One – Avengers Assembled Blu-ray Box Set Is Our Hero Of The Week
5 April 2013 6:15 AM, PDT
by Brett White
Its title may be a mouthful, but we're going to let that slide since this one box set delivered so many mind-blowing goodies this week. The box set, which came out on April 2nd, contains all of Marvel's Phase One movies: "Iron Man," "The Incredible Hulk," "Iron Man 2," "Thor," "Captain America: The First Avenger" and "Marvel's The Avengers." But, as we learned pretty much every day this week, the box set contains more than just the films themselves. Featurettes, concept art, Gif-able behind the scenes moments, memorabilia and more were all crammed into the collectible briefcase, along with a tiny Tesseract. It's rare that a box set really brings the goods to back up the hype; this box set has proven to be worthy enough to wield Mjolnir.
Here's a rundown of all the news set off via this one Blu-ray box set:

'Justice League Dark': 5 Supernatural Heroes For Consideration
5 April 2013 5:00 AM, PDT
by Ryan Rigley
While nothing further has been revealed about the in-development "Justice League" film, Guillermo Del Toro's "Justice League Dark" adaptation is coming together more and more each day. Earlier this week, while promoting "Pacific Rim" at WonderCon, Del Toro had this to say on the project: "The route we’re going is Constantine is our lead. Constantine is the guy who leads us in and out of the plot. We have Swamp Thing, Etrigan, we have Zatanna, we have the Floronic Man. We have stuff that those who love the darker side of the DC Universe are going to appreciate, and we’re trying to be true to the origins of the characters."
So the confirmed lineup for "Justice League Dark" (or "Dark Universe") thus far is Constantine, Deadman, Swamp Thing, the Spectre, Etrigan, Zatana, and, apparently, the Floronic Man. However, as DC fans know, there are »

'Man Of Steel': Statues Show Off General Zod And Faora
4 April 2013 2:00 PM, PDT
by Brett White
So far all of the photos released from "Man Of Steel" have been pretty uneventful, mostly depicting the cast and crew behind the scenes. We've yet to get a clear shot of Michael Shannon as General Zod or Antje Traue as Faora, but these images from "Previews" are the next best thing. These "Man of Steel" statues show the two Kryptonian opponents all armored up and ready to fight.
The General Zod statue differs from his action figure; we assume the action figure duds are hiding out underneath all that bulk. The Faora statue matches up with her action figure well, just with a much higher level of detail. Also shown are statues for Superman and Jor-El, two guys that we've already seen a bit of thanks to the trailers and action figures.

'Arrow' Promo For 'Home Invasion' Arrives
4 April 2013 12:45 PM, PDT
Have we all recovered from the events of "Unfinished Business" yet? Good, because "Arrow" fans now have three weeks to wait until its follow-up episode arrives, "Home Invasion."
To help ease the wait, an extended promo for The CW show has arrived that serves as quite the teaser for "Arrow's" return after its mini break. It seems as though Diggle will finally take on Deadshot -- or vice versa -- and Oliver is still trying to prevent those closest to him from finding out he's actually the a vigilante. Will he succeed? We'll have to wait and see.
"Home Invasion" airs on The CW on April 24.

New 'Avengers' Deleted Scenes Surface On Blu-ray Box Set
4 April 2013 10:21 AM, PDT
by Brett White
The new Marvel Cinematic Universe box set is the gift that keeps on giving. In addition to everything else it's given us this week, now we find out that there is even more deleted footage from "Marvel's the Avengers." Like, a lot more. The footage on the box set easily doubles the previously released deleted footage. Most of it comes from the film's intense final act; losing all of these vignettes and subplots really helped that last battle zip by. It's totally understandable that all of this stuff was lost, even if it does shed some light on the Chitauri's plan.
Check out all of the new scenes below.

'The Walking Dead' Welcomes Three New Series Regulars
4 April 2013 10:00 AM, PDT
by Brett White
It appears as though every cast member lucky enough to survive "Welcome to the Tombs" has been rewarded with series regular status. Sunday's third season finale drew an audience of 12.4 million people, making it the most watched show of the night and last week. These new cast members will have a lot more eyeballs on them a lot more regularly when "The Walking Dead" comes back this October. Of course this news means that these characters did not get zombified in the season finale, so you may want to steer clear of it if you haven't caught up with the AMC hit.
In addition to David Morrissey (The Governor), who will be vexing Rick and Co. full-time next season, TV Line reports that Chad L. Coleman (Tyreese), Sonequa Martin-Green (Sasha) and Emily Kinney (Beth) will be sticking around. For a little while at least (you never know »

'Guardians Of The Galaxy': Zoe Saldana Is The Perfect Gamora
4 April 2013 8:32 AM, PDT
by Brett White
Yesterday the Hollywood Reporter broke the news that Zoe Saldana is in talks to play Gamora in 2014's "Guardians of the Galaxy." I want this to happen so badly that my fingers are still crossed, making it vry harz to typoi. Zoe Saldana would be the perfect Gamora, a green-skinned extraterrestrial character whose nickname is "the deadliest woman in the whole galaxy." If you don't know why she'd kill it in this role (puns super intended), check out the evidence below.
She knows how to work alongside aliens
She can handle heavy artillery on Earth...
...And in space
She knows someone who has rocked green body paint
She can give the mocap actors behind Rocket Raccoon and Groot tips
She keeps cool in the face of advanced weaponry (or...hair dryers?)
She has a pretty good idea of how Gamora thinks
Effortless. Confidence.
See? Perfect Gamora.

'X-Men: Days Of Future Past': Bye Bye January Jones
4 April 2013 7:30 AM, PDT
by Brett White
January Jones told Collider that the diamond-skinned mutant Emma Frost won't be seen in 2014's "X-Men: Days of Future Past." After landing one of the more prominent roles in the fairly crowded "X-Men: First Class" (at least what was considered crowded before "Days of Future Past" turned into a mutant clown car), Jones has learned that Frost and Magneto have parted ways in the time lapsed between films.
"I haven’t been asked back," she told Collider. "It’s called 'Days of Future Past' or something. No, they’re going into another time period, or they’re going back and forth from different time period and Emma’s not in that. Not in what they’re doing." At least, despite her hesitation, Jones did get the title of the film right.
Jones was uncertain of her return back in January, so this report confirms what we already suspected. »

'Arrow' Recap: Episode 1.19, 'Unfinished Business'
4 April 2013 6:31 AM, PDT
by Ryan Rigley
As if psychotic killers running rampant around Starling City weren't enough, last night's "Arrow" (entitled "Unfinished Business") saw the return of the Count and the deadly drug known as Vertigo. Beginning with what might as well have been an anti-narcotics PSA, a woman dances across the floor of Club Verdant high out of her mind on Vertigo. She continues dancing all the way into oncoming traffic, then proceeds to get hit by a car.
Detective Lance shows up at Verdant, not too long after the incident, and questions both Tommy and Oliver about the woman. Tommy insists that he's never met the woman and Oliver orders Felicity to run a check on all Verdant employees to see which of them may have a drug history. Lance continues his investigation at the Starling City Asylum, where the Count is currently being held.

According to a tweet, director Josh Trank's "Fantastic Four" reboot is set to begin filming in Vancouver this September. The tweet comes courtesy of @lemon_buzz (a.k.a. Lindsay), a Vancouver native who may or may not have the inside info on Marvel's First Family.

Rumor: Will Controller Do Thanos' Dirty Work In 'Guardians Of The Galaxy'?
3 April 2013 1:15 PM, PDT
by Brett White
The Marvel news keeps on keepin' on with this latest "Guardians of the Galaxy" rumor. Latino Review has a hunch that Thanos won't be working alone when he starts terrorizing our heroes at some point during Phase Two of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. The latest Marvel movie rumor (in a day full of 'em) is that the Controller will be serving as Thanos' main henchman and ambassador in 2014's "Guardians of the Galaxy."
The Controller, whose real name is the delightful-sounding Basil Sandhurst, is a super villain specializing in mind control. Sandhurst was placed into a protective exoskeleton after barely surviving a lab explosion. He then used technology to master the art of mind control, coming into conflict with Iron Man and S.H.I.E.L.D. He later crossed paths with Thanos, who upgraded his tech and offered ruler of Earth in exchange for temporary servitude. »
