The Marvels Director Blames Captain America For Thanos Snap In Avengers: Infinity War

Los Angeles, October 20 - The "Captain Marvel" sequel "The Marvels" director Nia DaCosta has a different take on the events of Thanos causing half of life in the universe to dust out of existence in Avengers: Infinity War by just a Snap. While the Marvel fans found Thanos responsible for "The Snap", "The Marvels" director explains Captain America may actually be at fault. ## Speaking to Inverse (via comicbook), Nia DaCosta explains how Captin America was at fault when the time came to decide between saving Vision or sacrificing an entire universe to Thanos, the Mad Titan. ## "Something I like to say a bit flippantly about Captain America is that the Snap is all his fault because he was trying to do his best, trying to do the right thing", the director told. "There is a world in which he's a villain because, at the end of the day, he should have just sacrificed Vision (to save the universe)".## "He chose one robot's life, albeit a sentient one, over literally the entire universe. There's a sort of anti-hero in that if you want to look at it through that lens. People would say I'm crazy for thinking that way, but there's something connected to the journey of the anti-hero and the hero", she added.## In Avengers: Infinity War, Vision had offered to sacrifice himself and mind stone to keep Thanos away from adding it to his Infinity Gauntlet. However, Steve Rogers aka Captain America denied his proposal by famously saying that the Avengers weren't in the business of trading lives. He then teamed up with Black Panther in Wakanda for one last stand against the invading aliens, only to lose as Thanos did kill Vision to claim the Mind Stone. ## Stay tuned...

A lot of the MCU elements are not included in this movie.— Herb Scribner (@HerbScribner) October 19, 2021 ## Eternals is Marvel’s version of Zack Snyder’s Justice League.

Marvel President Kevin Feige Explains The Reason Behind Postponement Of Phase 4 Movies

Los Angeles, October 19 - In a major development, Marvel Studios and Disney postponed the entire Phase 4 schedule of the MCU films, except Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3, on Monday (October 18). While the reason behind this move wasn't explained at the time of postponement, many wonders if Disney and Marvel still fear the covid-19 pandemic. ## However, that is not the case this time around as Marvel Studios' president Kevin Feige has explained the actual and genuine reason why the studio has reshuffled its Phase 4 schedule, starting with "Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness". ## Speaking to Variety's Marc Malkin at Monday's world premiere of Eternals, Feige told, "It's production shifts and changes, and because we have so many slots, we can just shift slots.## "All the Marvel slots are the same, we're just shifting when they're coming out. And yes, Strange [in the Multiverse of Madness] has moved six weeks, so instead of there being three months between Marvel movies, there will be five months between Marvel movies and I think we can all handle that", Feige added.## "It's production shifts and changes, and because we have so many slots, we can just shift slots," Kevin Feige says of the schedule changes that altered #DoctorStrange2's release date. https://t.co/F6rov2HB1g pic.twitter.com/ZaTmTKToWk— Variety (@Variety) October 19, 2021 ## Meanwhile, Marvel Studios' Disney release, "Eternals" is scheduled to debut in worldwide theaters on November 5. Directed by Oscar-winner Chloé Zhao, the movie stars an ensemble cast including Salma Hayek, Gemma Chan, Angelina Jolie, Richard Madden, Kumail Nanjiani, Barry Keoghan, and Don Lee in prominent roles.

Marvel Studios Postpones Doctor Strange 2, Thor 4, Black Panther 2, The Marvels, And More

Los Angeles, October 18 - Marvel Studios' Phase 4 movies are going to be delayed again. While "Eternals" is still arriving on November 5, Disney and Marvel have postponed the releases of the upcoming films, starting with Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness moving from March 25, 2022, to May 5, 2022.## Every Marvel / Disney's film has taken the release date of the next Marvel film. "Doctor Strange 2" takes the slot of "Thor: Love And Thunder", which has been pushed from May 5, 2022, to July 8, 2022, while Black Panther: Wakanda Forever has shifted from that July date to November 11, 2022.## Brie Larson's "Captain Marvel" sequel, "The Marvels", which was supposed to release on November 11, 2022, will now be debuting on February 17, 2023, while Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania has moved from February 2023 to July 28, 2023.## The only Disney-released MCU movie to stick where it was is Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3, which will still be released on May 5, 2023. Meanwhile, Disney has once again pushed the untitled "Indiana Jones" movie to June 30, 2023, from the previously dated July 29, 2022. ## Disney has also moved the entire schedule of the untitled MCU films. One of those on July 28, 2023, is now the release date for the new Ant-Man movie, while the other on October 6, 2023, has not been replaced by anything.## It's still unclear why Disney has moved the release of MCU films as its recently released "Shang-Chi and The Legend of The Ten Rings" performed very well at the box office and earned $414 million worldwide so far. Disney, however, will still be releasing James Cameron's "Avatar 2" on December 16, 2022. ## Stay tuned...

The Batman Trailer Promises A Visually Stunning Experience For Audiences On The Big Screen

Mumbai, October 17 - Robert Pattinson-led "The Batman" trailer was launched on Saturday (October 16) during DC Fandom, and believe us, it is going to make audiences go nuts in movie theaters. There was already a lot of hype and expectations from this DC film, and the new trailer only has raised those expectations. ## The new trailer of Matt Reeves-directed "The Batman" shows the glimpse of Zoë Kravitz as new Catwoman and Colin Farrell as Penguin. The trailer also gives a proper look at Gotham City and teases the action sequences. It promises a visually stunning experience for the audience and the darkest cinematic outing yet for the Caped Crusader, even when compared to Christopher Nolan's gritty "Dark Knight" trilogy. ## The trailer begins with the arrest of the Riddler, played by Paul Dano, who is clearly the main antagonist driving "The Batman" story, as a serial killer who leaves cryptic clues with his victims and holds a special fixation on Batman. It also gave a broader look at Zoë Kravitz as Catwoman. Earlier, the Catwoman character was played by Michelle Pfeiffer in 1992's "Batman Returns" and Anne Hathaway in 2012's "The Dark Knight Rises". ## "The Batman" movie also marks the return of Penguin, who was last appeared in the "Batman Returns", played by Danny DeVito. The trailer also gives the first look at Andy Serkis as Alfred Pennyworth, Bruce Wayne/Batman's loyal butler. Scheduled to release on 4 March 2022, "The Batman" will debut in English, Hindi, Tamil, and Telugu in India. ## Have a look at some of the stills from the trailer, which are visually stunning - ## 4K shots of Robert Pattinson as #TheBatman pic.twitter.com/roDeremrqp— Culture Crave 🍿 (@CultureCrave) October 16, 2021 ## #TheBatman 4K screenshots pic.twitter.com/BY3o7VShLV— Culture Crave 🍿 (@CultureCrave) October 16, 2021 ## The cinematography in #TheBatman slaps illegally hard pic.twitter.com/agQ8q8CVjW— 𝐁𝐚𝐫𝐭 (@ClunkSpider) October 16, 2021 ## You just know this sequence is gonna be a work of art. #TheBatman #DCFanDome pic.twitter.com/boJkw2hGg4— Binge Watch This (@BingeWatchThis_) October 16, 2021 ## Watch the trailer here - ## ## Stay tuned...

Two Time Academy Award Winner, Michael Caine To Retire From Acting After Best Sellers

Los Angeles, October 16 - Michael Caine, a British actor, and two-time Academy Award winner, is putting a brake on his legendary 70-year old film career. The 88-year old said in an interview broadcast Friday that the newly-released "Best Sellers" is the last film he has acted. ## "Because I haven't worked for two years, and I have a spine problem which affects my legs so I can't walk very well, so...", he told BBC radio host Simon Mayo. "And I also wrote a book, a couple of books, which were published and were successful, so I'm now not an actor, I'm a writer, which is lovely because as an actor you have to get up at half-past six in the morning and go to the studio. As a writer, you can start writing without leaving the bed". ## Caine, in his decades-long film and tv career, worked over 170 films including "The Dark Knight" trilogy. He got nominated for Oscars six times and went on to win on two occasions for roles in 1986's "Hannah and Her Sisters" and 1999's "The Cider House Rules". ## The frequent collaborator of Nolan's film, Caine most recently appeared opposite John David Washington and Robert Pattinson in the Nolan directed Tenet and Martin Owen's Twist. When asked if the Aubrey Plaza co-starring Best Sellers is his final film, Caine answered, "I think it would be".## "I don't have any — there haven't been any offers, obviously, for two years, because nobody's been making any movies I'd want to do", Caine said of the COVID-19 pandemic. "But also, I'm 88. There's not exactly scripts pouring out with a leading man who's 88, you know?".## The veteran actor turned author has penned multiple biographies and said he wrote his fictional debut, a thriller titled "If You Don't Want To Die", during the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown.## Stay tuned...

Movie Theaters Using Fan-Made Posters Of 'Spider-Man: No Way Home' To Promote Upcoming Superhero Film

Mumbai October 13 - Marvel/Sony made the Spider-Man fans wait a long time before releasing the first teaser/trailer of "No Way Home" on August 24, and once it was released, the response was so loud that it became the most viewed teaser/trailer in the world in 24-hours.## While we have seen the official trailer of "Spider-Man: No Way Home" the wait for the official "No Way Home" poster continues, and it's resulted in some movie theaters taking matters into their own hands. In the absence of an official poster of the upcoming Spider-Man movie, movie theater owners, who have high hopes from this Marvel film, are promoting the film using fan-made posters.## Several of these posters are drawing on the imagery of Tom Holland's Spider-Man and Benedict Cumberbatch's Doctor Strange working together, showing the wallcrawler leaping through the magical portals that the Sorcerer Supreme has employed in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. ## Some other fan-made posters feature two other big-screen Spider-Men, Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire, standing alongside Holland's hero. There are rumors that the new Spider-Man movie will also feature these two after some leaks and reports on the same. The official inclusion of some of their villains in the story has fueled those fires that two have a role to play in the new film.## Theatres around the world are Starving for official #SpiderManNoWayHome posters and using Fan Made Posters!@SpiderManMovie about time we get that Official Poster! pic.twitter.com/4gGDCYhd8E— Spider-Man News (@SpiderMan_News_) October 11, 2021 ## However, despite all the leaks, reports, and other stuff, Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire along with Tom Holland have kept denying all the possibilities of former two Spider-Man featuring in the new film. "Unless they have hidden the most massive piece of information from me, which I think is too big of a secret for them to keep from me. But as of yet, no. It'll be a continuation of the Spider-Man movies that we've been making", Holland previously told Esquire.## Garfield too has spoken the same on the many occasion that he is not a part of "No Way Home". "I understand why people are freaking out about the concept of that because I'm a fan as well", he had told Variety.## Directed by Jon Watts and starring Tom Holland, Zendaya, Jacob Batalon, Marisa Tomei, Jamie Foxx, Alfred Molina, and Benedict Cumberbatch, Sony and Marvel Studios' Spider-Man: No Way Home is scheduled to release in theaters on December 17. ## Stay tuned...

Box Office: James Bond 'No Time To Die' Storms Past $300M Worldwide; 'Shang-Chi' Crosses $400M Globally

Mumbai, October 10 - James Bond "No Time To Die" opened with $56 million at the North America box office, very much in line with the industry's early box office projection of $55M-$60M. Daniel Craig's final outing as 007, the movie scored the fifth-best domestic opening during the covid-19 pandemic. ## The pre-ticket sales of "No Time To Die" had better than "Venom - Let There Be Carnage" and the Hollywood industry insider had hoped to cross $60 million in its domestic launch. However, it was always going to be an uphill task for the movie as unlike the recent Hollywood pics, the Bond movie has always been fueled in large part by moviegoers 35 and older. ## It was still a good start for the Bond pic as recent reports suggest that the movie-going confidence is getting back among the older audiences, thanks to the rapid vaccination against the virus. According to The Hollywood Reporter, 57 percent of ticket buyers were over the age of 35, including 36 percent over 45 years old. The male audience is turning into large numbers as 64 percent of ticket buyers are male. ## Meanwhile, despite the above par opening domestic weekend, "No Time To Die" continues to score big in the international market. The Bond pic stormed past $300 million worldwide after grossing an estimated $89.5M internationally in the second weekend, taking its total overseas collection to $257M. The total global box office of No Time To Die stands at $313 million, without China, where the movie is scheduled to debut on October 29.## On the other hand, Marvel Studios' "Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Three Rings" has crossed $400 million worldwide and becomes the third Hollywood pic to achieve the milestone during the pandemic. The Simu Liu-fronted pic stands at $401.6 million globally, including $212.5 million domestically and $189.1 million overseas. ## "Shang-Chi" is the only film to reach $200 million at the North American box office during the 18-months of covid-19. It also surpassed fellow Marvel movie "Black Widow" to go past $400M worldwide. Universal Pictures' "Fast & Furious 9" is the highest grosser Hollywood film worldwide with $717M followed by Warner Bros.' "Godzilla vs Kong" which earned $468M. ## Stay tuned...
