Jean-Pierre van Wyk <![CDATA[Blade Ball Codes (December 2024)]]> https://attackofthefanboy.com/?p=955122 2024-12-19T10:45:39Z 2024-12-19T10:45:36Z

Updated: December 19, 2024

Checked for codes.

Whenever I get nostalgic about PE classes, Blade Ball makes me feel that familiar adrenaline rush that used to accompany every dodgeball match. Well, back in the day, we didn’t have cool features such as customizable swords and explosions in our regular boring dodgeball games—features that make this Roblox experience incredibly addictive and fun.

Just like in the real deal, mastering gameplay in Blade Ball is somewhat challenging at first, particularly when your opponents have powerful skills such as Wind Cloak and Freeze and you don’t. The game offers a ton of features to unlock but never enough coins. Thankfully, with some help from Blade Ball codes, you will get your hands on some of that sweet currency and other exclusive Skins and Swords. 

And if you don’t want the fun to end just yet, check out our Roblox Fireworks Playground Codes for more free rewards in that game as well.

How to redeem codes in Blade Ball

To redeem codes in Blade Ball, follow the instructions below:

how-to-redeem-blade-ball-codes-1
Image: Attack of the Fanboy
  1. Launch Blade Ball on Roblox.
  2. Click on the Extra icon in the top left corner of the screen.
  3. Choose Codes when the drop-down menu appears.
  4. Enter your code into the Redeem Code text box.
  5. Press the checkmark icon to claim your rewards.

How can you get more Blade Ball codes?

If you want to look for codes on your own and get new updates directly from the developer, join the Blade Ball Discord Server. Devs occasionally release codes on their X account (@Blade_Ball), so feel free to give them a follow. The official YouTube channel (@Blade-Ball) exists, but the developers are not very active on there at the moment.

However, the easiest way to catch the latest codes is to bookmark this page and visit it occasionally. We are constantly looking for and collecting new codes in one place, so you don’t have to waste your time and energy.

Why are my Blade Ball codes not working?

If you tried redeeming codes manually, you probably met Roblox players’ number one enemy—typos. Always double-check the spelling of your codes and be careful with the details, such as capitalization. Copying and pasting codes directly into the game is an excellent way to avoid this problem.

It’s also possible that the code you’re trying to redeem has expired. Developers often don’t specify expiration dates for every code, so an expired one can overstay its welcome on our Working list. If you find a code that no longer works, let us know in the comments, and we’ll investigate the issue.

Other ways to get free rewards in Blade Ball

The more rounds you play, the more freebies you’ll get. If you click the Quests button on the left side of the screen, you’ll open a menu with three Daily Quests. That way, you can claim some extra Coins simply by progressing through the game. Tasks are usually pretty straightforward, such as completing a certain amount of matches.

You can get even more Coins and Wheel Spins by playing the game for a particular amount of time. Press the Extra button in the top left corner of the screen, then click on Playtime Awards in the drop-down menu to claim your rewards.

What is Blade Ball?

Blade Ball is Roblox’s unique twist on dodgeball, where players can dive into competitive multiplayer matches using special abilities. The goal is simple: hit and block the ball and be the last player eliminated from the Arena. Focus and timing are the key if you want to rise through the ranks. Unlock new abilities and find the ones that most suit your game style.

Why Aren’t My Sakura Stands Codes Working

Players will want to ensure that they’ve typed the codes in exactly as they were typed on this page, and make sure to follow the capitalization. If a code is expired, this experience will let you know that it is no longer valid, but if it says the code isn’t working, there could be a small typo preventing you from claiming your bonuses.

Where To Get More Sakura Stands Codes

The developer of this experience is not very active on Social Media, so joining the Sakura Stand Discord Community is likely to be the easiest way to claim some new codes as soon as they go live for this particular game. Also, make sure that you have bookmarked this page, as we will be checking for new codes quite often.

What Exactly Is Sakura Stands?

Sakura Stands is an action game, based loosely on the JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure franchise. Players will be able to power themselves up, as well as earn plenty of unique and powerful allies from not only this franchise, but others such as Jujutsu Kaisen and more. Players can also partake in PVP battles, either in a group or via 1 on 1 battle that can be prompted at any time.

Those searching for a new action title that have tired from other experiences, such as Blox Fruits may fall in love with this title. It offers quite a competitive nature, and plenty of things to do, such as side quests and a story to follow alongside.

Roblox is available now on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Mobile Devices, and PC.

The first thing you need to do is unlock the ability to access the Mystery Gift Codes menu, which you can accomplish by reaching a Pokémon center. This will take you about 90-minutes of playtime. Once you have reached the first Pokémon center, you will gain access to the Poké Portal on the menu screen. From here, you have several options to redeem content. Here are the various options you have available to you:

  • Get via Internet
  • Get with Code/Password
  • Check Mystery Gifts
  • Check Poké Portal News

Get via Internet

The Get via Internet option will search for available gifts you can download. You can only download one gift at a time. This option is available for all players and is what you want to use to get the Adventure Set gift.

Get with Code/Password

The Get with Code/Password option allows you to enter a mystery gift code. Once the code has been entered and verified, the gift will download to your game. For example, you want this option to get a Special Pikachu gift using the Mystery Gift code you received via email.

Check Mystery Gifts

The Check Mystery Gifts option will display a list of all Mystery Gifts you have obtained using either of the above methods.

Check Poké Portal News

The Check Poké Portal News option will provide you with up-to-date news from Nintendo on anything Mystery Gift related, so check back often!

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet are available now on Nintendo Switch.

We’ve all wished at some point that everything in life was as formulaic as a video game. You develop your skills and strategy, hit certain checkpoints and like clockwork, and you advance to the next level.

Unfortunately, as we all know, real life is a little more complicated than that—with plenty of unexpected obstacles that can derail our progress. One area where this is especially true is transforming our bodies. You can hit the gym everyday and consume protein shakes like there’s no tomorrow and still fall short of your goals thanks to the many biological and lifestyle factors at play.

  • Collection three is “the build,” with a focus on controlled heavy lifting with drop sets and pyramids to optimize your gains. 

There’s also a fourth, bonus collection, “no excuses,” with optimal workouts under 25 minutes that are perfect for when you want to sneak in a quick session during a streaming marathon.

Available to stream on the BODi app on your phone, tablet or computer, you can do the fast and effective workouts anytime and anywhere.

Gunn has stated that Corenswet will “blow people away” due to his acting range and physicality.

The director has praised Corenswet’s ability to excel in both comedic and dramatic roles, describing him as “the best physical action star I’ve probably ever worked with.” Gunn has worked with tons of action heroes, so it’s pretty amazing to hear something like that from him.

David Corenswet is going to blow people the f*** away. He is the movie star that everyone dreams he could possibly be and I don’t think anyone really understands the depth of this guy’s talent – dramatically, comedically, he’s the best physical action star I’ve probably ever worked with except for Frank [Grillo].

Gunn has also expressed excitement about Rachel Brosnahan, who will star as Lois Lane. He describes her as “extraordinary” and noted that she delivered “the best audition tape of anyone who read.” Gunn has also commented on the “magic” that occurred during Corenswet and Brosnahan’s first screen test, saying they were “two of the most extraordinary, vibrant, and meticulous actors” he has worked with.

One year ago today David and Rachel screen-tested for Clark and Lois. When they first read together it was like magic. What a wonderful year it’s been with two of the most extraordinary, vibrant, and meticulous actors I’ve ever had the opportunity to work with. I can’t wait for you to see them on screen in just a little over a year.

The casting of Corenswet and Brosnahan has gotten a lot of excitement among fans, particularly after Henry Cavill’s departure as Superman. This looks like he will be a worthy replacement for Henry Cavill.

There have been plenty of rumors about him leaving Venom to go to Spider-Man, but we finally have confirmation.

While promoting the upcoming Venom: The Last Dance at Comicon, Hardy made it clear that he will not be appearing in the film at this point. However, the way he said it makes us think this is less of a personal choice. He sounds like if he was given an opportunity, he would not be against it.

More Spider-Man: Tom Holland’s Spider-Man 4 Idea Was Rejected Because of Captain America 4

I don’t see him in the next Spider-Man movie because I’d have the script and I don’t have that. Well, it’s been seven years this day… I’ve absolutely loved playing Eddie and Venom. It’s been one of the best things I’ve ever done in my life so it’ll be sad to see him go… I would like to fight Spider-Man. I would like to fight him right now. In a movie, 100%. I would never say never.

Tom Hardy

However, his comments regarding Spider-Man 4 are noteworthy, especially because of the growing anticipation for a potential crossover between the two characters. Many fans have speculated that Hardy’s Eddie Brock could join forces with Tom Holland’s Peter Parker in a battle against Knull, the God of Symbiotes. This villain was introduced in Venom: The Last Dance and is expected to play a significant role in future installments.

More Spider-Man: Tom Holland Isn’t Sure About His Future As Spider-Man

Venom: The Last Dance writer and director Kelly Marcel, however, continues to suggest that the film merely marks the beginning of Knull’s story. She hinted that the film’s ending might set the stage for more exploration of the Symbiote universe. This could potentially open up new avenues for Eddie Brock’s involvement, even if he is not present in Spider-Man 4.

It remains uncertain whether Hardy will ultimately return as Eddie Brock in any future Venom or Spider-Man films. However, now that it’s clear he wants to return, Sony only needs to get him signed.

Jorge Aguilar <![CDATA[Jenna Ortega May Return To MCU In Bigger Role]]> https://attackofthefanboy.com/?p=994606 2024-10-21T21:15:54Z 2024-10-21T21:15:49Z Jenna Ortega, known for her roles in shows such as Wednesday and Scream, is rumored to be in talks to join the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). This rumor, shared by industry scooper on X (formerly Twitter), has sparked speculation about Ortega’s possible return to the MCU after her previous appearance in Iron Man 3.

This possibility makes a whole lot of sense, even though Marvel Studios or her representatives have not confirmed Ortega’s potential new MCU role. The thing is that Ortega is currently doing very well in movies, and her career is at an all-time high. She also has a foot in the door from already being a character in the MCU. She was the Vice President’s Daughter in Iron Man 3.

Even still, it is important to note that Marvel Studios frequently meets with various talents for different roles. This may be entirely true, but that doesn’t mean that Marvel will go through with it. They could just be scoping Ortega out and getting a feel for where she could fit, how much she’d cost, and how it’d affect the MCU. Ortega would be likely to meet with Marvel because being in a Superhero movie is something many actors likely want on their resume now.

More Marvel: Tom Holland Isn’t Sure About His Future As Spider-Man

Previously, rumors suggested that Ortega was considered for the role of White Tiger in Daredevil: Born Again, but this casting did not come to fruition. Ortega has a busy schedule ahead, and Wednesday doesn’t seem to be going under anytime soon, so any projects need to keep that schedule in mind. So, even with some confirmation, there’s that big hurdle for any studio.

If the rumored talks progress further, Ortega’s potential involvement in the MCU would significantly add to her already impressive filmography. If anything, this would set her as an A-Lister. However, once again, there’s no confirmation either way.

The news of it has been back and forth, but with an official release date came a rating that is equivalent to R. The series set to debut on Disney+ on March 4, 2025, will be rated TV-MA.

This marks the third MCU Disney+ series to receive an R-rating, following Echo and Marvel Zombies. The series will continue the story from Netflix’s original Daredevil series, reuniting Matt Murdock with both his allies and enemies, including Vincent D’Onofrio’s Kingpin. It seems as brutal as most people would expect but with the same characters as before.

The announcement of Daredevil: Born Again receiving an R-rating is a significant development for Marvel Studios. It shows that Disney is not afraid to push further into the R-rated areas since Echo and Deadpool & Wolverine came out. Both of those achieved critical acclaim and box office records, so it opens the door to even more movies and shows that should be for more mature audiences.

More Marvel: Tom Holland’s Spider-Man 4 Idea Was Rejected Because of Captain America 4

The R-rating of Daredevil: Born Again suggests that Marvel Studios is willing to explore the Daredevil character’s darker and more mature aspects, which will give a lot more depth and complexity to his story. It also raises the possibility that future MCU projects may adopt a similar rating, further diversifying the studio’s output and catering to a wider audience.

Daredevil: Born Again will see Kingpin, who rose to the position of New York City Mayor in Echo’s post-credits scene, face off against Daredevil once again. The series will also feature the return of Wilson Bethel’s Bullseye from Daredevil Season 3 and introduce a new antagonist, Muse. While the overarching plot for Season 1 remains unclear, Matt’s battles with Kingpin and these other adversaries will be central to his story. The series will mark Matt Murdock’s second appearance in the MCU since his adventures in the Defenders Saga were officially incorporated into the MCU canon. This means the future is bright for Daredevil.

Apparently, it was too similar to the plot of Captain America: Brave New World.

Holland was speaking on the Rich Roll Podcast when he discussed his involvement in the MCU. He described how collaborative the process is, but also how some of his ideas have been rejected. He explained that the creative team at Marvel often has plans for the future of the franchise that might overlap with his own ideas, and he seemed to acknowledge that this was part of the process.

I’ll come up with an idea, and they’ll say no you can’t do that because we’re doing that in the new Captain America movie. It’s really cool to just see how they’ve got this vision for the future.

More from the interview: Tom Holland Isn’t Sure About His Future As Spider-Man

Holland’s rejection was not a surprise to him. He seemed to understand that Marvel Studios has a specific vision for its franchise and is always planning ahead. Holland did not reveal the specifics of his rejected idea, but apparently, it’s good enough to be the direction of the MCU. He did say that he felt the script for Spider-Man 4 was worthy of the fans’ respect.

It is interesting to know, and hopefully, we’ll get some information on what that idea was after Captain America 4 comes out. It’s understandable that Holland wouldn’t tell us now, but hopefully, he will remember the story and we will see how it would work for Spider-Man instead of Captain America.

Based on what he’s been saying, Holland’s future in the MCU is not set in stone.

While Holland seems like he wants to continue playing Spider-Man, he has also said he wants to make sure any future appearances are for the right reasons. He is currently reflecting on his role in the MCU and the power that comes with it, noting that he has been in contact with Robert Downey Jr. regarding his return. Holland seems to be very thoughtful regarding the franchise.

I think the biggest thing that I’m facing right now, which is without a shadow of a doubt the most first-world problem that anyone has ever experienced, is the power of choice, and it comes down to Spider-Man. When I signed my contract for ‘Spider-Man[: Homecoming]’, I signed a six-picture deal, I was 18 years old, I was more excited than I’d ever been about anything ever, and for the last 10 years I have been at the beck and call of Marvel [Studios] and Sony, and proudly so, it’s been the best experience of my life.

Holland’s future in the MCU is uncertain due to his desire to make sure future appearances are meaningful and his willingness to take control of his career. He has stated that he is now in a position where he can choose his projects and that he wants to make sure any future Spider-Man appearances are done for the right reasons.

I’m now at a juncture where I can say no, and now that I’ve been afforded that power, I’m struggling to figure out what is the right thing to do. It’s meant I’ve had to put my foot down in certain instances, which I haven’t been allowed to do in the past, and I think the learning curve that I’m on right now is dealing with that new sense of power, making sure that I don’t abuse it, but making sure that I do the best thing for me, rather than for the studio, and really the best thing for the character. I don’t want to make another movie for the sake of making it… It’s a wonderful place to be, but it is something that keeps me up at night…

It really makes us wonder about whether we’ll continue seeing Holland’s Spider-Man.

During an interview with Josh Horowitz, Stan shared that he auditioned for the role of Hal Jordan in 2011’s Green Lantern, ultimately losing out to Ryan Reynolds. Reflecting on the experience, Stan admitted that he was grateful for not getting the part, as he wasn’t sure he could have handled the level of attention that would have come with it. To be honest, we think Reynolds might have been glad to avoid Green Lantern, too.

Green Lantern was another one I screen-tested for. I remember getting there and it was, like, me, Justin Timberlake, Jared Leto, Ryan Reynolds, and maybe one other person. I’m looking at these guys going, ‘I’m f***ed. There’s no way this is happening for me.’ You come close and it wouldn’t happen, but in a way, looking back I’m almost glad it didn’t.

He acknowledged that the Riddler has already been portrayed on screen, with the most recent portrayal being by Paul Dano in The Batman. However, that doesn’t mean the real DCU’s Batman’s Ridler is taken. Remember that Robert Pattinson’s Batman is not part of James Gunn’s DCU. So Stan actually has a shot.

More DC: James Gunn Has Idea For Wonder Woman Replacement

I don’t know if Batman’s for me. Never say never, I don’t know. There are so many characters. I told you, I always had a soft spot for The Riddler but that one’s been done.

Sebastian Stan

While Stan’s interest in The Riddler is cool to hear, it’s important to note that there are no current plans for a project that would feature the character. The DC Universe is undergoing a significant transition under the leadership of Gunn and Peter Safran.

If they do mention that the Ridler or even Batman is open, we’d guess that Stan will be one of the people going up for the role.

This image is the first official look at the character in the film, and for some, is the first time learning the character will be in the movie.

The teaser shows Superman and Krypto sitting side-by-side on the moon, watching over Earth. Gunn revealed on Instagram that the character was inspired by his own dog, Ozu, who he adopted shortly after beginning work on the Superman script. Ozu, who came from a hoarding situation and had never encountered humans before, presented several challenges for Gunn. The dog’s unruly behavior, including destroying property and biting, led Gunn to imagine what life would be like if Ozu had superpowers. This thought seems to have ultimately shaped Krypto’s character and his inclusion in the movie’s story.

More DC: James Gunn Has Idea For Wonder Woman Replacement

While the exact role of Krypto in the Superman movie is not known, but the dog is expected to play a significant part in the upcoming Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow film. Gunn stated that the character will make his on-screen debut in the Superman movie this summer.

The teaser image is really nice to see, and will definitely make any fan excited. It offers a glimpse into the visual aesthetic and tone that Gunn is bringing to the Superman franchise. This is vastly different from Synder’s version, which some would say is far too dark for a boy scout hero like Superman.

The film’s story will focus on Superman’s journey to reconcile his Kryptonian heritage with his human upbringing as Clark Kent. We expect it will do much better in setting up the DCU than the DCEU did in its universe. We hope to see more of Krypto soon, though, because it’s nice to see dogs with superpowers.

Jorge Aguilar <![CDATA[Joker: Folie a Duex Won’t Make Back Cost By Almost $200 Million]]> https://attackofthefanboy.com/?p=994062 2024-10-15T19:18:18Z 2024-10-15T19:18:16Z Warner Bros. is facing a potential financial setback with the release of Joker: Folie à Deux. While the studio has not publicly acknowledged the movie’s financial performance, industry reports suggest that the sequel could cost the studio as much as $200 million due to its underwhelming box office performance.

The movie, which had a reported production budget of $200 million, also incurred an estimated $100 million in marketing and distribution costs. This is not as normal as it seems because many movies tend to spend double the cost of making it to market. There may have been writing on the wall already.

The-Joker-Elevator
Warner Bros.

To break even, the movie needs to gross $450 million globally. However, the film has only grossed $51.5 million domestically and $165 million worldwide. This is the most important time for a movie, and numbers this low show that it definitely isn’t going to reach anywhere close to $450 million. Experts predict that the film will likely only reach a lifetime gross of $210 to $215 million worldwide.

More Joker: Joker 2 Director Getting Harassed After Sequel Flop

Warner Bros. is likely going to rely on the home entertainment, scheduled for October 29, to help recoup some of their losses. That is actually where a lot of money used to come in for many movies. The theaters take so much of a percentage that the showings used to be more of a commercial for the DVDs. However, times have changed, and buying a physical version is no longer as popular as it once was.

The potential profits from physical distribution will likely not be enough to offset the significant financial gap. The movie received mixed reviews, with some critics praising the performances and technical aspects of the film, while others criticized the film’s story and direction.

Audiences also seemed to be divided on the movie, with some finding it to be a compelling and unique sequel, while others found it to be a disappointing and unnecessary follow-up to the original. This is a great example of a movie flop, and DC really doesn’t need that right now.

In an interview, Locke voiced his desire for Wiccan to play a prominent role in the MCU, even suggesting that he could eventually lead the Avengers. While the Young Avengers, a team that Wiccan is a member of in Marvel comics, it seems incredibly unlikely that Wiccan will have a leading role.

The issue comes from the popularity of Agatha All Along, which, while it is watched, is not as popular as many other shows, and its watchtime couldn’t even beat Acolyte. That being said, a show being unpopular doesn’t mean that the characters are unpopular. Wiccan is likely coming to Avengers and has opportunities to really stand out there.

In my ideal world, Billy would become the next head of the Avengers and be in every Marvel thing ever, but there are higher things at play… I had the most amazing experience filming on Agatha and being a part of the Marvel family and would love to do that until the day I die. But who knows? I don’t. I’m sure someone does.

We don’t see Agatha All Along popping up in viewership or becoming a must-see MCU show like WandaVision. While the idea of a character from that show playing a huge part in the MCU is a bit far-fetched, but that doesn’t mean it’s impossible. Locke could continue to do great work and eventually his character could move up.

It’s not crazy to see a character that was on the side become popular enough to lead, a lot like Loki. The only issue is that Spider-Man is a clear favorite to lead the Young Avengers.

Many thought that Knull would be its main antagonist, but it seems like we were wrong. Director and co-writer Kelly Marcel came in to clarify things.

Marcel said, “One movie could never do justice to Knull,” which shows that his story will extend beyond The Last Dance. This also tells us that this may be the way Spidey gets his symbiote suit in the MCU’s Spider-Man movies.

It’d be silly to say this ruins the Venom movie or spoils anything because now we know that Knull surviving isn’t a big part of the movie. If anything, this gives us even more mystery because we want to know who exactly will be the antagonist.

The film is supposed to be the final part of Hardy’s Eddie Brock story in the franchise. Having Knull appear is a great way to get a version of Venom in the MCU’s Spider-Man. Marcel explained that they felt the need to establish the Venom character and his relationship with Eddie before introducing Knull. Although he’s not the main antagonist, his role is significant.

More DC: Venom: The Last Dance Likely Has Multiple Post-Credit Scenes

Marcel revealed that Knull’s role in The Last Dance will only be the beginning of his story. She explained that the film will explore the threat posed by Knull, but it will primarily focus on Eddie and Venom’s relationship.

The film will see Eddie and Venom on the run, pursued by adversaries. It seems the real antagonists are the characters played by Chiwetel Ejiofor and Juno Temple, who are part of a military-science complex, and are aware of the existence of symbiotes. While their characters have different agendas, they will be forced to cooperate with Eddie and Venom for the greater good, but we’ll find out more once the movie releases.

This is definitely a surprise to many, but there is no guarantee that any actor will stay now that the universe has been rebooted.

Gunn stated that he would only hire “professionals” for the role of Wonder Woman in the revamped DC Universe (DCU). This means he will not be holding open casting calls for the part. Gunn was asked about his casting process on the social media platform Threads and confirmed that while he has worked with lesser-known actors in the past, he prefers to work with experienced professionals.

I have never only hired well-known actors. I’ve hired many, many actors in lead roles that were less well known than your example of Gal at the time of WW. But I do only hire professionals, same as I do with plumbers, surgeons, and masseuses. I think it’s fair, although fair isn’t my objective – my objective is telling stories the best I can.

Gunn explained that his focus is on finding actors who can deliver the best performances, not on their level of fame or recognition. He stated that he only hires “professionals,” comparing his casting process to hiring qualified professionals in other fields, such as plumbers, surgeons, and masseuses.

More Wonder Woman: Wonder Woman Actress Angry Over Reboot

While he did not disclose who he intended to cast as the new Wonder Woman, Gunn clarified that he had not only hired well-known actors in the past. He has worked with actors in lead roles who were less well-known.

The recasting of Wonder Woman is one of many changes being made to the DCU under Gunn and Peter Safran. The duo has already re-cast Superman, with David Corenswet replacing Henry Cavill. Other major roles, such as Lois Lane and Lex Luthor, have been recast with Rachel Brosnahan and Nicholas Hoult, respectively.

That is not to say that there is no hope for Gal Gadot, as he may hire her again for the role. It all just depends on what he ends up deciding.

The cancellation has sparked controversy among fans, with many blaming James Gunn and Peter Safran, the new heads of DC Studios. However, they aren’t at fault at all.

Elizabeth Tulloch, who plays Lois Lane on the show, has defended Gunn. She cleared up the reasoning, saying the cancellation was because of a series of executive changes at The CW and Warner Bros. The CW was sold to Nexstar in 2022, and Warner Bros. brought in a new CEO, David Zaslav, shortly after. The shakeup at Warner Bros. also included a new leadership team for DC Comics.

People keep putting the blame on Gunn and Safran, but the reality is The CW was sold to Nexstar, Warner Bros. had a new head in David Zaslav, and then also DC Comics had new heads. If you’re a Superman fan, be stoked about the movie and trust in his vision, because everything I think Gunn has directed has been great, and I think it’s going to be great.

Tulloch stated that the show’s creators were initially told that Superman & Lois would run for seven seasons. While the cancellation was unexpected, she believes it was a result of these significant changes within the companies rather than a deliberate decision by Gunn and Safran, who are mainly focused on the movies.

Brad Schwartz, the President of Entertainment at The CW, has confirmed that the show’s cancellation was tied to Gunn’s plans for a new Superman movie. Schwartz stated that The CW did not want a competing Superman product in the marketplace, suggesting that the network’s decision was influenced by a desire to avoid conflict with Gunn’s vision for the DC Universe.

However, how he did it makes us believe Sony is trying to get him to redo his role.

While promoting his upcoming film We Live in Time, Garfield was asked by podcast host Josh Horowitz about conversations he might have had with Sony regarding a potential return to the role. Garfield acknowledged that such discussions could be occurring, given the success of his appearance in Spider-Man: No Way Home.

Garfield was cautious in his responses, avoiding any definitive statements or revealing specific details. He acknowledged the curiosity surrounding his future as Peter Parker, especially given the ongoing development of Spider-Man 4. The strangeness comes from how he says things.

Yeah, of course, your assumption is not unfounded. If I was in your position, I can imagine going, ‘Yeah, he’s probably had some conversations,’ too, yeah… I understand in your position you’re going to be wondering, because it was such a success, that you’d kind of go, ‘Well they must be talking about it.’

Yet refused to say anything else. Garfield’s coy responses have only fueled speculation about his future in the Spider-Man franchise, though he stopped short of confirming or denying any involvement in ongoing discussions. His comments suggest that conversations regarding a potential return are likely taking place, but these discussions’ exact nature and outcome remain unclear.

With Spider-Man 4 in development, the possibility of Garfield reprising his role as Spider-Man is highly intriguing to fans. Let’s not forget that he outright said he wouldn’t be in No Way Home, so he’s always open to denying anything the studio tells him to.

The musical film, which stars Joaquin Phoenix and Lady Gaga, has been met with widespread negative reception, earning a dismal 33% rating from critics and 31% from audiences on Rotten Tomatoes.

This makes Joker: Folie à Deux the lowest-scoring comic book movie ever on the platform, and its “D” CinemaScore further expresses the audience’s dissatisfaction. However, following the film’s UK premiere, Phillips shared photos on Instagram, where he was met with a wave of negative comments from fans. Many expressed their disappointment and anger towards the sequel, stating that it “ruined” their memories of the first film. Some criticized the film’s artistic choices, while others used generic insults to express their disapproval.

Warner Bros.

While the majority of the online discourse has been critical, some fans have defended the film, arguing that it was intended to be a commentary on society’s obsession with the Joker persona rather than Arthur Fleck himself. They suggest that the film accurately portrays how people often ignore the struggles of individuals and instead glorify the villainous aspects of their personalities. That makes sense, to be honest.

Phillips has stated that he is finished working with DC, indicating that he will not be directing any further films in the Joker franchise. However, the decision to make a sequel has proven controversial, as many critics and fans believe that the first film did not require a follow-up.

The comments are pretty mean, so if you go there, be ready for some really cruel jokes at Phillips’ expense.

Nielson portrayed Queen Hippolyta in the DC Extended Universe.

Nielsen expressed her confusion regarding the decision, given the commercial success of the first Wonder Woman film in 2017, which earned over $800 million worldwide and garnered critical acclaim. However, it’s important to note that the sequel, Wonder Woman 1984, received a less enthusiastic reception.

More DC: Wonder Woman Prequel Is Moving On Without Gal Gadot

Even still, the franchise’s overall success and dedicated fanbase led to Warner Bros. and DC to initially greenlight a third film. However, James Gunn and Peter Safran, the newly appointed heads of DC Studios, opted for a fresh start to the entire universe, choosing to largely reboot the DC Universe, leaving many existing projects, including Wonder Woman 3, on the chopping block.

Gal-Godot-Wonder-Woman
Warner Bros.

I think it’s crazy. I mean, frankly, I don’t understand it. [Wonder Woman] made $800 million just in the movie theaters, and it has an enormous and passionate, passionate fan base. These are spectacular films, and there’s just no reason I can understand whatsoever for not investing in that. If I were a business person, I would say that’s money on the table. It’s right there. Plus every time we’ve done it, [it was] with budgets that were way smaller than any of the other DC budgets. I really hope that they change their minds, and that they realize this is crazy. This is a billion dollars that is lying on the table.

Connie Nielsen

Nielsen is rightly frustrated since the franchise as a whole was doing well. She argues that the financial success of the original Wonder Woman alone makes its cancellation a missed opportunity, particularly considering the film’s relatively low production budget compared to other DC projects. However, Wonder Woman doesn’t stand alone. It’s part of a universe made for the characters that must do well, too. Unfortunately, they didn’t, so Gunn needed to come in and reboot the whole thing.

Holland is expected to play a “major role” in Avengers: Doomsday, which is scheduled for release on May 1, 2026.

Production for this film is expected to begin in the second quarter of 2025, with filming taking place in London. Filming for Spider-Man 4 is expected to begin in the United Kingdom on May 25, 2025, and wrap in October of the same year. The film is scheduled to be released in July 2026, following Avengers: Doomsday and before Avengers: Secret Wars.

More Spider-Man: Venom 3 Rumor May Have Spoiled Surprise Casting

So basically, it seems like Spider-Man will make his return in another movie before his own. There are a ton of reports on what will happen in Spider-Man 4, and no one really knows for sure. There are many reports that scripts are changing, and confirmations of castings haven’t happened yet, so take everything there with a grain of salt.

However, the report on Avengers: Doomsday states that Holland will have a more significant role in Avengers: Doomsday than he did in Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame. Given that the film’s villain, Doctor Doom, will be played by Robert Downey Jr. and bear the same face as Tony Stark, Holland’s involvement in the film makes sense.

More Spider-Man: Doctor Doom Coming To Spider-Man 4 According To Reports

We can assume Holland will be a big part of the movie just because of his bond with Tony Stark. It’s unclear what the future holds for Holland’s Spider-Man beyond the Multiverse Saga. Additionally, the insider has stated that Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios are working on a deal for Holland to appear in more non-Spider-Man films. This would include future Avengers movies and potentially other MCU films.

We’ll have to wait and see as more details come out for the coming movies.

According to an online scooper, the film will feature more than one post-credit scene.

The news comes as Venom: The Last Dance prepares for its release on October 25, 2024. This installment is poised to be the final chapter in the Venom franchise. The film’s trailer has generated significant buzz, particularly for its introduction of Knull, the God of Symbiotes. The two post-credits scenes will likely be nods to the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) or Spider-Man.

Post-credit scenes have become a common practice in superhero films, often serving as a teaser for future storylines or providing additional context to the main narrative. The first Venom film in 2018 also featured two post-credit scenes. One scene introduced Cletus Kasady, the villain for the sequel Venom: Let There Be Carnage. The second offered a glimpse into Sony’s Spiderverse projects.

Venom: Let There Be Carnage continued the trend with its own post-credit scenes. One scene depicted Tom Hardy’s Venom briefly crossing over to the main MCU timeline, Earth 616. This crossover was later acknowledged in the MCU film Spider-Man: No Way Home. Given the previous film’s successful use of post-credit scenes, we all want to know what is coming in these.

More Venom: Venom: The Last Dance Reports Claim A Spider-Man Will Cameo

We’ll have to wait and see, but since there are two and we know this is the end of the Venom saga, one is likely to deal with Spider-Man, while the other is likely to deal with Venom spinning something off. This may be where Tom Holland’s Spider-Man gets his symbiote suit.

Since the Venom series is too profitable to just let die, Sony will likely use this to spin off another villain that fans can keep an eye out for. Luckily, we’re all going to be watching, so it could be a great launching point.

This scene shows an unexpected romantic moment between two characters.

Warning: Light spoilers for Deadpool & Wolverine

The scene features Rob Delaney’s character, Peter, and Wunmi Mosaku’s character, Hunter B-15. The scene takes place after Peter and Hunter B-15 part ways for the evening. As they say goodbye, they share an unexpected kiss. Following this, Hunter B-15 uses her TemPad to create a Time Door, while Peter walks into his apartment to tell Kidpool and Headpool about his newfound feelings.

The scene, while brief, adds a really interesting layer to the relationships explored in the film, particularly the romantic dynamic between Peter and Hunter B-15. This unexpected interaction was ultimately cut from the final film, but it offers a glimpse into the original storyline for developing certain character relationships.

This isn’t much to go off of, but because these scenes keep getting released, we could assume that they’re canon. Deleted scenes normally get ignored or brought up sparingly, but many of these scenes seem to be deleted just because there wasn’t enough time in the movie to show them. If we assume that they were meant to give us more context, then they would be canon.

Unfortunately, unless Ryan Reynolds or someone else at the studio clarifies, we have to assume these scenes didn’t happen. It’s a shame because the relationship between Hunter B-15 and Peter is pretty sweet to see. Maybe we’ll get some kind of context there in the future. It seems like there is a general fondness between the two characters, and we’d like to see more.

Hopefully, we’ll see more deleted scenes release over time, but anyone curious can rent or own it when it comes out. It will be released on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray, and DVD on October 22, 2024, which tends to come with deleted scenes.

Gunn addressed the rumors in an Instagram story, stating that a news article claiming he was searching for a “middle-aged” Batman was “bullsh*t.”

Gunn emphasized that casting for DC Studios projects generally doesn’t begin until the script is finalized. At this point, there’s not even a script ready to go for Batman. The rumor originated from internet scooper MyTimeToShineHello, who has a reputation for both accurate and inaccurate predictions regarding upcoming films.

More DC: Wonder Woman Prequel Is Moving On Without Gal Gadot

While Gunn has previously debunked rumors that later proved true, regarding Superman’s suit and Ultraman’s appearance in the upcoming Superman film, he maintains that this rumor about Batman is entirely fabricated.

https://twitter.com/MyTimeToShineH/status/1844467161915666867

The upcoming film Batman: The Brave and the Bold is expected to be the first introduction of the DCU’s Batman. As some reports have suggested, the project is not yet in advanced pre-production, and the script is not being written by Andy Muschietti, the film’s director, and Rodo Sayagues.

More DC: Dark Knight Director Reportedly Fought Joaquin Phoenix Joker Ending

It’s important to note that Matt Reeves’ The Batman films, starring Robert Pattinson as Bruce Wayne, exist in a separate Elseworlds universe, distinct from Gunn’s DCU. The same goes for The Joker movies with Joaquin Phoenix. Reeves has confirmed that his universe is not connected to the DCU, meaning Pattinson’s portrayal of Batman will not be incorporated into Gunn’s vision.

Until we get some concrete evidence regarding DCU’s Batman, we will get many of these rumors instead of real confirmation. The best thing to do is to wait for a place to confirm or deny it before outright saying it’s true. Until it’s confirmed or denied by an official source, it should be taken with a grain of salt.

This rumor, originating from online scooper My Time To Shine Hello, suggests that Wanda will have a significant role in both upcoming Avengers films and will share a great deal of screen time with Robert Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom, potentially as his lover.

Wanda has been confirmed to have been killed, but this could likely be a Wanda from a different Mutliverse. The rumor of Wanda’s involvement in Avengers: Doomsday has been enough to make fans think she’ll make a return.

https://twitter.com/MyTimeToShineH/status/1844080325020070042

The possibility of a romance between Wanda and Doctor Doom is very hard to believe. Doctor Doom does not belong to the main MCU timeline, and Wanda’s established love for Vision makes a romantic relationship with Doctor Doom unlikely. This is why many think these are people from two different universes.

More Marvel: Captain America Reportedly Setting Up Hulk Sequel

There are instances in the comics where Doctor Doom and Wanda become allies in pursuit of power. That’s one thing, but there’s no storyline where they fall in love. However, there’s even less of a basis for Tony Stark to become Doctor Doom, so we’re in uncharted territory anyway.

These are just rumors, but they come from sources that tend to be right. However, we’ve heard too many rumors at this point and are thinking that maybe some are sent out to throw people off the real trail.

More Marvel: Vulture Actor Addresses Spider-Man 4 Rumors

Marvel Studios hasn’t even spoken about the return of Wanda, but we’re supposed to believe there will be so much built-up that there will be a romance? It makes almost no sense and would be hard to pull off well. We’d say not to believe this rumor if you hear about it. It seems too far fetched.

In a recent interview, Keaton was asked about a potential appearance in the upcoming Spider-Man 4 and said he hasn’t had any conversations with Marvel about it. Notably, he seemed pretty bored with the idea. He said he doesn’t like talking to people.

More Spider-Man: Venom: The Last Dance Reports Claim A Spider-Man Will Cameo

It’s worth noting that Keaton’s initial appearance as The Vulture was intended for Spider-Man: No Way Home before his character was reintroduced in Morbius. In the film, Keaton’s Vulture is mistakenly sent to the Morbius universe and released from prison. He then tries to recruit the titular character for an unspecified team. Despite this, Keaton hasn’t confirmed any potential involvement with Spider-Man 4.

Previous plans for Spider-Man: No Way Home involved Peter Parker visiting Adrian Toomes’ home with other villains like Doctor Octopus, Green Goblin, and Electro. Concept art from that version of the film depicted Spider-Man working alongside The Vulture, with several variations of his flight suit.

More Spider-Man: Doctor Doom Coming To Spider-Man 4 According To Reports

It’s worth noting that Marvel isn’t against replacing the character’s actor. John Leguizamo, originally cast as The Vulture in Spider-Man: Homecoming before being replaced by Keaton, has spoken about the situation. He explained that while he hadn’t signed a contract, he had a verbal agreement with the studio. However, Keaton ultimately replaced him due to a last-minute decision by studio executives. Leguizamo was disappointed by the situation but ultimately chose to walk away, saying he didn’t want to be at a “party” where he wasn’t wanted.

While Keaton hasn’t confirmed or denied his involvement in Spider-Man 4, his ambiguous answer leaves the possibility open. Fans will have to wait for official announcements from Marvel to learn more about his potential return and the direction of the upcoming film.

The movie is coming out on February 14, 2025, but will lead to more.

This follows previous rumors from 2021 about a Hulk-focused film, which an insider later contradicted. The new rumors claim Marvel Studios has modified the ending of Captain America: Brave New World to tie the story more closely to the Multiverse Saga and lay the groundwork for a World War Hulk film.

These changes reportedly involve the introduction of a new gamma monster, Red Hulk, played by Harrison Ford, alongside Tim Blake Nelson’s return as Samuel Sterns, (The Leader). The Leader has a history with Hulk blood was previously aligned with Bruce Banner. It is speculated that his villainous turn in the film could lead to the creation of Red Hulk and potentially other characters in the future.

More Marvel: The Silver Surfer May Be The Next MCU Focus

Apparently, the Serpent Society, a group of criminals, has been altered from half-cyborg to a group of normal humans with possible super-soldier strength. The group will be led by Giancarlo Esposito as Sidewinder, a character who possesses superpowers and is expected to appear in a Disney+ series after his big-screen debut.

These changes appear to be shifting the focus of Captain America: Brave New World from a standalone story to a more important part of the Multiverse Saga. While it’s unclear when a World War Hulk project might be released, the film’s new direction may show the possibility of a potential release date sometime after Avengers: Secret Wars wraps up the Multiverse Saga.

However, Universal still holds the distribution rights to the Hulk character, which makes it difficult for Disney to release a standalone Hulk movie without resolving those rights. If the film proceeds as rumored, it will likely be released sometime in 2027 or later.

What would have been seen as a missed opportunity now feels like a relief.

The original ending had Phoenix’s character, Arthur Fleck, carving his face in front of a crowd of rioters. Nolan, who directed the Dark Knight trilogy starring Christian Bale, objected to the scene, believing that only his Joker, played by Heath Ledger, should have the iconic face-carving moment. He was right.

Nolan’s influence on the Joker ending is notable due to his past work with Warner Bros. and his strong vision for the character of the Joker. Since Todd Phillips decided his joker wouldn’t actually be the joker, it feels like we avoided a situation where DC hurt Heath Ledger’s iconic performance. While this scene would have been good for the first movie, the second movie just ruins it.

More DC: Wonder Woman Prequel Is Moving On Without Gal Gadot

The sequel, Joker: Folie à Deux, sees the return of Phoenix as Arthur Fleck and introduces Lady Gaga as Harley Quinn. The film deviates from the original ending, and Nolan wasn’t there to save the day. We won’t spoil it but there is a scene that homages to Nolan’s version.

The box office for this Joker movie is nowhere near enough to justify a sequel. This was obviously part of a trilogy, but based on the reception, we probably won’t be able to see what is planned for a third movie.

There are few movie series that bomb so hard in the second movie that a third isn’t feasible, but it looks like Phillips’ Joker trilogy may have hit that criteria. We’ll see how things go, but we’re happy to know that Ledger’s performance won’t be tarnished with an homage from a poor man’s joker. We’ll have to see what comes from all of this.

Jorge Aguilar <![CDATA[Venom: The Last Dance Reports Claim A Spider-Man Will Cameo]]> https://attackofthefanboy.com/?p=993926 2024-10-10T03:22:42Z 2024-10-08T18:16:58Z New reports about the upcoming Venom: The Last Dance are circulating. Some are suggesting that we may not have seen the last of Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield as their respective Spider-Men.

While many reports say that Tom Holland’s Peter Parker could be in Venom: The Last Dance, there are not concrete details. Many insiders have said that a Spider-Man should be in that movie because Holland is rumored to get the Symbiote suit in the near future. The suit’s acquisition is speculated to happen during the next movie or from Venom, having gone to Holland’s universe for a short time. Even with these rumors, Holland is not expected to appear in Venom: The Last Dance. However, there are some rumors that this movie will set up a multiverse chain that may feature Garfield and Maguire.

Spider-Man 4 seems to be taking a more multiversal approach than its predecessor, Spider-Man: No Way Home. As more time goes on, more insiders are reporting that this won’t be a street-level movie. This suggests that a collaboration with Daredevil is unlikely, at least for now.

Knull, the powerful symbiote entity, will be wielding his All-Black sword, despite his appearance in Thor: Love and Thunder lacking the weapon. He will likely push the symbiotes to other universes, which could open the door to more multiverse adventures. Spider-Man 4 will likely feature a clash between the Spider-Men and a variety of symbiotes.

This is mostly speculation, but it’s based on a lot of reports. It is well known that Sony is putting a lot into Spider-Man, and the success of Holland with the MCU seems to prove it’s a formula that could work. Unfortunately, there have been many negative reports about the production of the movie, and we’ll have to wait and see what comes of it.

For now, we have to wait until the new Venom movie releases so we can see what they’re building up in Spider-Man 4.

Jorge Aguilar <![CDATA[Doctor Doom Coming To Spider-Man 4 According To Reports]]> https://attackofthefanboy.com/?p=993924 2024-10-08T18:16:58Z 2024-10-08T18:16:56Z There are rumors circulating that Robert Downey Jr. will reprise his role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Doctor Doom in the upcoming Spider-Man 4. While no official confirmation from either Marvel or Sony has been released, the rumors have gained traction.

The rumors come from industry scooper MyTimeToShineHello on X (formerly Twitter), who suggested that Downey Jr. would be playing Doctor Doom in Spider-Man 4. This could see Downey Jr. taking on a new role after playing Tony Stark/Iron Man in previous MCU movies. It also could give a reason for Peter not to hurt Doctor Doom.

More Marvel: The Silver Surfer May Be The Next MCU Focus

The film is also rumored to be titled Spider-Man: King in Black, with Knull, the God of Symbiotes, as the main antagonist. This would see the movie delve into multiversal storylines, potentially linking to the introduction of Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom. Knull is a huge figure in Marvel Comics and is known for creating the symbiotes and wielding the Black Necrosword.

This would be a great storyline. While Tom Hardy claims he’s done, Venom could always make an appearance in Spider-Man 4.

According to industry scooper DanielRPK, Downey Jr.’s Doctor Doom would come from the same universe as the Fantastic Four, linking him to the upcoming Fantastic Four: First Steps. This would further suggest the film’s multiversal focus, hinting at potential crossovers and collaborations with other MCU characters and storylines.

While this is pretty interesting, at this point, Holland’s Spider-Man hasn’t stood on his own at all. There’s always been some connection to the MCU or Marvel movies that has strung him along. Spider-Man 4 was supposed to be his time to shine by himself, but that may not happen if these reports are to be believed.

While we love MCU Spider-Man and are happy to see references to other movies, the other Avengers who got stand-alone movies seem to do just fine without needing the support of other Marvel heroes. Even the Venom movies could stand alone, yet not Spider-Man. We’ll see how Spider-Man 4 does overall.

Jorge Aguilar <![CDATA[Wonder Woman Prequel Is Moving On Without Gal Gadot]]> https://attackofthefanboy.com/?p=993925 2024-10-08T18:16:58Z 2024-10-08T18:16:54Z DC Studios is moving forward with its planned Wonder Woman prequel series, Paradise Lost. The series, which was announced alongside other DCU projects in January, will explore Themyscira, the birthplace of Wonder Woman before the hero herself was born. Paradise Lost will not feature Gal Gadot as Diana, who portrayed the character in the previous DCEU films.

James Gunn, co-CEO of DC Studios, has confirmed progress on the series. This indicates that the DCU plans to continue exploring the mythology of Wonder Woman despite the absence of Gal Gadot.

While there has been no official announcement regarding a new live-action Wonder Woman movie or series starring a new actress, the development of Paradise Lost suggests that we may see a new Wonder Woman in the DCU.

Fans should have expected this because even Henry Cavill has been replaced by a new Superman. There’s a big guarantee that other actors have replaced every member of the Justice League in the DCEU.

It’s up to the fans to decide whether they like or hate this. There was a minority that did not like Gal Godot because some scenes seemed amateur. However, a few scenes don’t speak for a movie as a whole. She did a good job in her role as Wonder Woman, and a possible replacement isn’t because of her performance.

We definitely expect every superhero to be replaced in the DCU unless it was a movie made under James Gunn himself. This is likely why Peacemaker was able to make it through the change. However, it’s open season for other superheroes.

We’ll have to pay attention to see how things go from here, but it is likely that Gal Godot is out as Wonder Woman.

Jorge Aguilar <![CDATA[The Joker Box Office Is Criminally Low]]> https://attackofthefanboy.com/?p=993904 2024-10-08T18:03:30Z 2024-10-07T19:54:13Z The sequel to the critically acclaimed Joker (2019) has underperformed in its opening weekend. It fell very short of initial projections and has been raising concerns about the future of the box office prospects. It seems like Joker: Folie à Deux may not see the sequel it’s hoping for.

Joker: Folie à Deux opened to a domestic gross of $40 million over the weekend of October 4 to October 6, significantly lower than the $96.2 million debut of its predecessor. Initial box office predictions for Joker: Folie à Deux ranged from $115 million to $145 million. However, the film’s opening weekend performance fell considerably below these estimates, with Friday’s opening day grossing $20 million.

The film’s weekend box office total of $81.1 million, combined with an international haul of $40 million, brought the global total to $121.1 million. While it secured the top spot at the box office, its performance is a far cry from the original’s cultural impact and critical acclaim. The sequel currently holds a 33% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, a stark contrast to the 68% rating of the original.

This disappointing performance comes against a backdrop of several recent box office disappointments for DC films, like Shazam! Fury of the Gods, Blue Beetle, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom. The Flash. Joker: Folie à Deux joins that list with a reported budget of $190 million to $200 million. So the film needs to earn at least $450 million to break even. This figure increases to $550 million to 600 million when accounting for marketing costs and theater chain revenue share.

While there is potential for the film to gain traction in the coming weeks, the negative word-of-mouth and the upcoming release of Venom: The Last Dance on October 25, 2024 will likely shoot Joker: Folie à Deux even further down. The future of DC’s box office prospects hinges on the success of James Gunn’s upcoming Superman, set to premiere on July 11, 2025. This project is seen as a crucial step in the studio’s efforts to revive its superhero franchise and restore faith in the studio giant.

Jorge Aguilar <![CDATA[Smallville Superman May Return]]> https://attackofthefanboy.com/?p=993903 2024-10-07T19:54:12Z 2024-10-07T19:54:10Z Tom Welling, best known for his role as Clark Kent in the television series Smallville, has been open about wearing Superman’s costume on the television screen. This comes after a decade-long absence from the role, following the series finale of Smallville in 2011.

Welling has previously shown reluctance to fully embody Superman on screen and was usually a proponent of just showcasing Clark Kent’s journey to becoming Superman. While the finale of Smallville featured a brief glimpse of Superman, Welling has said that he felt it was more important to showcase Clark’s transformation. However, he’s told ComicBookMovie he’s grown warmer to the idea of taking on Superman.

In the CW’s Crisis on Infinite Earths crossover, Welling reprised his role. However, it didn’t give him an opportunity to wear the iconic Superman suit. However, in a recent interview, Welling revealed that his perspective has shifted. He mentioned that his two sons’ fascination with superheroes has led him to consider the possibility of donning the suit.

Obviously, many fans want Welling to become Superman in earnest. Given the recent trend of successful television show revivals, there is potential for Welling to reprise his role. This all depends on how much James Gunn wants to make alternate stories that could interfere with the reception of his Superman. It’s hard to say that it will come anytime soon.

Despite the uncertainty surrounding potential projects, Welling’s willingness to return to the role of Superman is a big part of what will put him on the screen. He has also shown interest in reviving the series with an animated format alongside former co-star Michael Rosenbaum. So it shows he’s a team player and can get along with people, making things happen.

This is an important step in getting a Welling Superman, and now it’s up to the studios to do their part and give him the opportunity. There’s no doubt it will be great to finally see Welling don the costume.

Jorge Aguilar <![CDATA[Ewan McGregor Has Great Kenobi News]]> https://attackofthefanboy.com/?p=993905 2024-10-07T19:54:04Z 2024-10-07T19:54:00Z It’s clear that fans of Kenobi have been disappointed by the lack of news on a second season. The first season did very well, but Disney has been tight lipped. However, Ewan McGregor recently offered a positive update on the series’ future.

At Los Angeles Comic-Con (via The Direct), McGregor revealed that the team behind the show is actively “exploring” the possibility of a second season. This comes after previous statements from Lucasfilm executives and the show’s director, Deborah Chow, suggested a second season was unlikely.

McGregor specifically mentioned the potential for stories between the end of Obi-Wan Kenobi season one and Alec Guinness’ portrayal of the character in the original Star Wars films. He also expressed interest in wearing the armor from the Clone Wars series, which would allow for a reunion with Hayden Christensen, who played Anakin Skywalker in the prequel trilogy. Christensen and McGregor have already come together in Obi-Wan Kenobi season one, and it’s been memed to no end.

Despite McGregor’s enthusiasm, Disney has yet to officially confirm or deny a second season of Obi-Wan Kenobi. Prior to McGregor’s comments, fans were led to believe that the series was intended as a limited series, with “The Complete Series” listed on Disney+ for the first season.

However, Disney’s shifting release strategy and the recent lackluster performance of other Star Wars series like The Acolyte might get the studio to reconsider Kenobi. The show holds a strong fan following and is the third most popular Star Wars series on Disney+ behind The Mandalorian and The Book of Boba Fett. They have already tried and failed to gain a fanbase with The Acolyte, so it may be a better idea to stick with what works.

While there is no official confirmation yet, McGregor’s comments suggest that a second season of Obi-Wan Kenobi is not entirely out of the question. Fans eager for more adventures with Ewan McGregor as Obi-Wan Kenobi will have to wait for further announcements from Disney and Lucasfilm.

We’ll have to wait and see if there is any more news to whether or not Kenobi will return, but we sure hope it will.

Jorge Aguilar <![CDATA[Ryan Reynold’s Green Lantern May Be Hurting The DCU]]> https://attackofthefanboy.com/?p=993848 2024-10-05T00:46:56Z 2024-10-05T00:46:53Z James Gunn’s reboot of the DC Universe may be facing some issues because of Ryan Reynolds’ 2011 Green Lantern film. Despite the success of Reynolds’ recent projects like Deadpool & Wolverine, his Green Lantern performance has become synonymous with the film’s critical and commercial failure.

That’s right, this negative association with the character has led to some reluctance from actors to take on the role of Hal Jordan in the upcoming Lanterns series. Reportedly, stars like Josh Brolin, Matthew McConaughey, and Ewan McGregor were all considered for the part, but Brolin reportedly declined due to the baggage surrounding the character. We are unsure if the others also gave a similar no.

Even though Reynolds has consistently poked fun at the film and offered a humorous perspective on the experience, his jokes have ultimately contributed to the perception of the Green Lantern character as a failure. The scene where he shot himself in Deadpool 2 hasn’t helped the new DCU.

More DC: James Gunn Finally Addresses Mr. Freeze Movie Reports

This idea of Green Lantern has apparently created a significant challenge for DC Studios because they are trying to establish a fresh take on the Green Lantern Corps in their new universe. To overcome the negative association, the studio has chosen Kyle Chandler, known for his role in Friday Night Lights, to portray Hal Jordan in the Lanterns series.

However, the negative legacy of Green Lantern is still concerning. The film’s failure has limited the character’s presence in live-action, with only a brief appearance in Zack Snyder’s Justice League as John Stewart. The upcoming Lanterns series will be the first live-action Green Lantern project in over a decade, and the studio better do a great job if it hopes to overcome the stigma surrounding the character.

Until it comes out, we just have to trust Green Lantern’s light (and a really good script).
