Another week, and more MCU news! We’re
only a week away from Iron Fist, Thor: Ragnarok is ramping up its
marketing, and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 is only 2 months away!
Put some ketchup on your eggs, and catch-up on your Marvel news!
Sorry I haven’t posted anything
but MCU Reviews for a while. I’ll try to
get a “Too Long; Didn’t Watch” article on Iron Fist published early in
the week, and then post expectations for it on Thursday.

They really pulled back the
curtain on Thor: Ragnarok this week.
There are a whole bunch of photos
showing Valkyrie, Hela, Thor, Loki, and even the Grandmaster. There’s also a little information
about the role Hela plays in the movie.
It all looks and sounds really cool and exciting, but I do worry that
there might be a little too much going on.
What do you think?
Why is the working title for Ant-Man
and the Wasp “Cherry Blue”? What does that even mean? At least this means they are getting closer
to filming the sequel.
Ant-Man and the Wasp is planning to begin filming
July 6 this year. Captain Marvel will begin shooting
January 8 next year.
We’re just a week away from the Iron
Fist release, so it’s time to get a little more information on the
series. In an interview with SFX
Magazine, Scott Buck revealed that Danny will not be wearing a costume or mask
in season 1 because he’s still figuring out who he is as a hero. That’s basically what happened with Jessica
Jones and Luke Cage. Even Daredevil
didn’t put on his actual suit until the last episode of his first season.
Marvel and Netflix can’t be happy
that the first reviews for Iron Fist are sounding like this.
Marvel’s Inhumans (the “movie” of the series’
first 2 episodes) is confirmed
to premiere in IMAX theaters on September 1.
It will be in theaters for a couple weeks before premiering on ABC. This isn’t exactly breaking news, but before
now the exact date was kind of speculative.
So it appears that some of the
NuHumans characters
from the comics will appear in the Inhumans series. Does this mean they could be adapting a
version of the Inhumans, All-New Inhumans, or Inhumanity
stories? The pieces are there,
considering that Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. spread Terrigen across the world
and it should reach everywhere by the fall.
The Runaways pilot has
finished filming. I doubt we will find out anything more about
this series for a while.
News from Around Geekdom
Anything not related to the MCU
that I find interesting
Zazie Beetz has been cast
as Domino in Deadpool 2.
Matt Nix is reuniting with Coby Bell
(Burn Notice) for his X-Men pilot, in which Bell will play what
sounds like the lead antagonist.
Star Wars Rebels has been renewed for season 4,
and Dave Filoni will have information on it at Star Wars Celebration!
I’m not entirely sure what to
think about this stand-alone Marian movie
starring Margot Robbie. It could be
good, but it’s from Sony… That’s not a death sentence by any stretch of the
imagination, but it certainly doesn’t instill confidence after their last 3 Spider-Man
movies—and greenlighting The Emoji Movie.
Is it sad that I honestly forgot
this was even
happening? There’s been so much talk
about the gay Le Feu in the live-action Beauty and the Beast (did anyone
else get the vibe he might be gay in the animated movie?) that this one
completely slipped my mind.
