WARNING: SPOILERS BELOW
It’s been one spoiler leak after another for Iron Man 3 this summer: First there was the news of the Iron Patriot, the leaking of four Iron Man megavillains (including Iron Man arch-villain The Mandarin), an army of 47 Iron Men, the destruction of Tony Stark’s home, and the revelation that The Mandarin was responsible for Tony...
One of the more entertaining activities of the 2012 has been to construct the entirety of Iron Man 3’s plot solely by the plot spoilers that continue to leak from the set of the upcoming Marvel film. Today, we’ve got another tidbit on the film’s villain, one that links it back to the first Iron Man, very much in the same vein that elements of the...
Oh, Lego, is there anything you can’t do? Building entire cities, vehicles, superhero lairs, etc. It seems like there’s nothing you can’t do…and that includes leaking huge plot spoilers to some pretty major upcoming superhero films.
Warning: Iron Man 3 and Man of Steel plot spoilers below.
While we’ve been busying ourselves with whatever rumors can be found concerning such superhero films as Justice League, The Avengers 2, and Guardians of the Galaxy, filming on Iron Man 3 has been chugging along without much comment from us. Earlier this summer there were the leaked villain and armor info but then… meh. Not much. So,...
Despite seeming nigh-invulnerable (or Hulk-invulnerable, if you will) after The Avengers’ box office dominion, Marvel suffered a bit of a hiccup this week—Robert Downey Jr. injured himself on the set of Iron Man 3, which will delay production on the sequel that hopefully doesn’t suck as much as Iron Man 2.
No matter how hard studios try, there's always someone who steals set footage and spreads it on the web. Luckily, director Shane Black and Marvel's Kevin Feige used today's Comic-Con press conference (for Iron Man 3) to clear up a matter of stolen images (can be seen below).
During the conference,...
Guardians of the Galaxy—a 31st Century group of superheroes that protect the Milky Way galaxy within the Marvel comics universe—appears to be the newest big Marvel property that will be hitting the big screen. What’s more, the film will apparently take place within the same continuity of Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, and The Avengers, and will act as a...
Yesterday, we reported to you that Sony’s in-development Venom spinoff will likely take place in the same fictional universe as the upcoming Amazing Spider-Man, with random crossovers and cameos, a la The Avengers with Iron Man, the Hulk, Thor and Captain America. Now, it was leaked today that, originally, The Avengers was set to feature a Spider-Man crossover…...
Earlier this week, we reported that Warner Bros. has is responding to the success of Marvel’s The Avengers by gearing up for their own superhero supergroup film: DC’s Justice League. Word has already trickled out that the team-up film will be “dark and mature,” a la Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy; now it seems that Warner Bros. is set to take a page from the...
While Marvel continues to issue denial after denial (much as they denied that Loki would be the villain in The Avengers), the film studio continues to deny that a certain arch-villain will be appearing in Iron Man 3. However, the Latino Review (which was among the first to announce that Loki was indeed the Avengers villain), has now announced that they...
Between such works as Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Dollhouse, Joss Whedon is known for featuring strong female characters in his TV shows and films. And while The Avengers did have Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow kicking ass and helping to save the world, the film was still a festival of testosterone between Thor, Iron Man,...
We get it, The Avengers—people like you. People like you a lot. But $1 billion in global box office receipts in 19 days? Now you’re just showing off, Tony Stark-style. Turns out people really, really want to see four superheroes (plus one athletic super-spy and one pointless dude with a bow and arrow) beat the hell out of New York City.
After The Avengers hit us with a massive $207 million opening weekend (grossing a worldwide $700 million), it should be no surprise that Disney/Marvel has officially announced the obvious; a sequel is on the way. Of course, we already knew a sequel would be on the way (Marvel rarely stops at just one, and its stars are all signed to multi-film contracts); this is...
If the box office is any indication (and it is), a lot of you enjoyed The Avengers this weekend. And even though the record-breaking superhero film is already 2.5 hours long, fans are already clamoring for more. While it’s a bit early for sequel news, director Joss Whedon is promising a three-hour director’s cut of The Avengers with 30 minutes of new...
Not that it’s any surprise, but in case you were curious, The Avengers took in nearly $20 million from midnight showings on Thursday night, entering a pantheon of memorable blockbuster films that set records for their midnight-premiere screenings: The Dark Knight, The Hunger Games and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 1.
Since exploding onto the screen in 2008, Marvel's Iron Man has imbedded himself into the pop culture. In addition to headlining two Hollywood blockbusters, the character made a scene stealing cameo appearance in 2008's The Incredible Hulk and will be featured prominently in The Avengers, which hits theaters Friday....
Let’s face it—one of the primary reasons for Marvel Studios recent box office dominion (Iron Man 1 and 2, Thor, Captain America, and however many millions upon millions that The Avengers will make) is Robert Downey Jr. The charismatic actor’s winning performance in the first Iron Man is what made the film such a...
We’re just under two weeks until the official release of The Avengers, one of the most anticipated films of 2012. The Joss Whedon-directed superhero film features such Marvel hotshots as Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, the Hulk, Black Widow and Hawkeye teaming up to defend Earth from the threat posed by Thor’s villainous brother, Loki. And in a new clip from the film, you can...
Now that Iron Man 3 is set to start production this summer, you can expect a bevy of casting news and (potentially) spoilers to start spilling forth from the Marvel offices. Just last week, we reported that Ben Kingsley was being cast as the film’s villain (rumored to be Mandarin), and now we can report that Lockout star Guy Pearce has been given a...
While we all sit around counting down the minutes until The Avengers is officially released, Iron Man 3 is already gearing up for production to begin shooting in May. Avengers star Robert Downey, Jr. will be returning as Iron Man, along with Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow, Gwyneth Paltrow as Pepper Potts and Don Cheadle as Lt....
