Check out this character featurette for Iron Fist
with Finn Jones talking about Danny’s character through the series. Side note:
looking at the series’ Wikipedia page, it looks like this season will be
adapting some of the Immortal Iron Fist run (#17-20 from 2008).
There have been plenty of casting
rumors for Inhumans, but the first one to be confirmed
is Maximus the Mad, who will be played by Game of Thrones’ Iwan Rheon.

Anything not related to the MCU
that I find interesting
Producer Scott Kinberg has “no idea” if they will
make another Fantastic Four movie.
Honestly, after Fant4stic they would have to be crazy to throw
more money at that property unless Marvel Studios produces it with them.
Speaking of troubled Marvel-FOX
productions, Gambit won’t start filming
until at least 2018 now.
Which of these possible spinoffs
from the X-Men universe would you be interested in seeing—Alpha Flight
or Exiles?
So I guess The Batman
isn’t in as much trouble as we thought.
It is confirmed
that Matt Reeves is replacing Ben Affleck as director. And in even better news, it is also confirmed that Ben Affleck is
still going to be playing the title character!
Color me intrigued: Reportedly,
Warner Bros. has begun working on a Nightwing movie set in the DCEU,
with Chris McKay (LEGO Batman) in negotiations to direct.
Black Lightning cast its lead: Cress Williams will play Jefferson Pierce,
a.k.a. “Black Lightning.” It looks
really interesting, especially with Black Lightning having been in retirement
for a while before the series starts.
Do you remember Mystery
Science Theater 3000? I never
watched it, but my wife got me started watching it recently. Anyways, the reboot (which includes Patton
Oswalt) is set to debut on Netflix on April 14.
