Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman appears to have seen her final days as part of the DC Universe (DCU) as the franchise looks ahead to an incoming reboot.

Since then, she’s starred in two Wonder Woman solo movies and both the theatrical and director’s cut of Justice League, although she’s now watching as the franchise goes through some major adjustments under new leadership. New DC Studios co-CEOs James Gunn and Peter Safran are set to unveil their…

Don’t get us wrong, we love Luis Guzman’s performance, but… As fans are still processing the bombshell first season of Wednesday, some recall the opportunities not used — or not even considered, which is even sadder. Despite Luis Guzman’s lovely performance as Wednesday’s father, Gomez Addams, many people think that Netflix has lost a chance to cast the most perfect actor for this role — Oscar Isaac.

According to fans, he would be the perfect choice not only for voicing the character, but portraying him in…
We love our behind-the-scenes drama as much as anyone else, but we never could have thought that the House of the Dragon set would be plagued by one. It looks like the drama on the set of House of the Dragon is just as intense as the drama on screen.

Sapochnik’s wife, Alexis Raben, appeared in four episodes of House of the Dragon as an actress and was a credited producer on the first season. However, when Sapochnik requested that Raben…

“It was definitely a jigsaw puzzle.” Image via Netflix Whether you do it in a book, movie, or TV series, crafting a whodunit (a murder investigation story) is never easy. Authors have to make sure that 100% of the story checks out, especially for spectators who feel like experiencing your work more than once. On Wednesday, showrunners Al Gough and Miles Millar had the task of making the audience curious as to who (or what) was killing the Nevermore students, and they decided to put all cards on the table and leave nothing hanging mystery-wise by the end of Season 1. In an interview to The…
Clearly, there was some connection between Rhaenyra and Harwin – after all, they had three children together. But some fans of House of the Dragon think they would have made a far more suitable couple than Rhaenyra and Daemon. It’s easy to see why when you consider that Ser Harwin has, in the words of Ryan Corr, “lived a lot of his life in the shadows” and is happy to do so. Ok, so Rhaenyra lusted after Daemon and, once again, there was a clear chemistry between them. But he was hardly the sort to settle down and live a sensible life,…
It was the year 2002 when director Sam Raimi introduced Tobey Maguire as Spider-Man to the world. A superhero who wasn’t born with powers but rather gifted with one by accident. A superhero who didn’t match the age-old description of one with a giant figure and deep baritone but rather felt like how a normal human would be like, with all his little flaws and shortcomings. Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man shows the story of a young Peter Parker learning how to do the right thing as he grows to be a people’s hero. Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man and his two sequels — 2004’s Spider-Man 2 and 2007’s Spider-Man 3 are ingrained with…

According to one insider, Avengers: Secret Wars could look awfully similar to Avengers: Endgame when it comes to one particular plot device. Avengers 6 may be more than three years away, but speculation is rampant surrounding the final film of the MCU’s Multiverse Saga. The film, sporting the same name as Marvel’s ultimate Multiverse comic event, is looking like it is going to be a Multiversal epic for the ages, as a number of legacy Marvel characters are expected to join the heroes of the MCU. The last Avengers film Endgame was always going to be “hard to top;” (according to actor Mark Ruffalo) however, the Marvel Studios team is confident it will be “a big bang” for…
Newly-anointed DC Studios head James Gunn may have just given fans a peek at what comic inspirations he is drawing from when writing his Superman movie script.

DC Studios CEOs James Gunn and Peter Safran are currently mapping out their franchise reboot, which has fans wondering how a character like Batman – who has already seen many iterations on-screen – will be handled this time around. Gunn has already confirmed that the Man of Steel will be rebooted with a new movie taking place at “an earlier part of Superman’s life.” Obviously, this points toward a full reset of the franchise, while separate reports have claimed the rest of the Justice League, including Ben Affleck’s Batman, may be recast too.

It has been almost three weeks since Henry Cavill has decidedly taken a gracious bow out of the long-debated and short-lived return as DC’s sole Superman. After the 14th of December announcement on the Man of Steel actor’s part, the DC universe fandom collapsed in on itself. In its aftermath, the shock and chaos that reigned supreme have been widely documented expansively over the media. However, even as the fandom comes to terms with the fact that Cavill is gone (permanently), more urgent and relatively pertinent questions arise to take up the void left behind by the actor’s exit. Henry Cavill’s Superman…

A clever detail about both Wednesday and Bianca have shows that Bianca was always meant to be a misdirect and that she was never the villain. Wednesday did an excellent job of creating potential villains, but none was as obvious as Bianca. By pitting Bianca and Wednesday against one another the show expertly set her up as the true antagonist, though a subtle parallel between the two confirmed Bianca was never the real villain. Wednesday relied on Bianca’s ability to manipulate her classmates with her siren powers to make her a prime suspect. This suspicion came to a head with the revelation that…
