The Incredible Hulk

Speaking with Variety, Mark Ruffalo confirmed a solo Hulk film featuring his version of the character “will never happen”.

I want to just make one thing perfectly clear today: A standalone ‘Hulk’ movie will never happen. Universal has the rights, and for some reason, they don’t know how to play well with Marvel. And, they don’t want to make money.

However, Ruffalo reportedly stated the Hulk has a “major storyline” in both Infinity War and Avengers 4.


Avatar 2-5

Sigourney Weaver spoke to Entertainment Weekly about why there needs to be four Avatar sequels to do the story justice.

There’s a very good reason why it turned out to be four sequels. Having read all four of them, I think they’re absolutely extraordinary and worth the wait. These films are very much about the peril of this beautiful planet, and [James Cameron] is continuing the same themes of greed and callousness of the corporations and plight of the indigenous people. At this point after a long and very satisfying career — I can’t believe it’s been 40 years, but anyway — I’m very excited to be able to work on these four stories. I can really, really appreciate it.

It’s the most ambitious project by far I’ve ever been involved in, and the most moving, the most astonishing, beautiful. I think all of us who get to be a part of it are just in awe when we see the artwork. It’s just incredible to be living now when we can bring this kind of film experience to the public. Because I think as much as ‘Avatar’ changed what people want in a film experience, this goes a hundred times farther.

Black Panther

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Chadwick Boseman compared Wakandan politics to Trump’s America.

Generally, there is unrest because there’s no leader on the throne. We’re dealing with a similar thing right now in this country. Just because a person was elected doesn’t mean everybody agrees with the things he’s going to do.

The Dark Tower

Speaking with Deadline, Akiva Goldsman revealed Idris Elba would “for sure” be involved in a Dark Tower television series.

The first episode of a show has been written, and we hope to retain Ron’s original idea to mix platforms, something that seemed revolutionary 10 years ago but now is something that others have done. Idris for sure is part of this, and if the movie is Roland Deschain the gunslinger, the show is his origin story, based on the fourth novel in the series, Wizard and Glass.
