New Birds of Prey set pictures reveal an equally surprising potential cameo. Tye Sheridan discusses the fictional drama of Dark Phoenix. Get a look at DC Universe’s new Stargirl. Plus, what’s to come on Fear the Walking Dead, and there’s some hope for even more Agents of SHIELD. Happy liar’s day!
A Quiet Place 2
THR reports Cillian Murphy is currently in talks to star alongside Emily Blunt in A Quiet Place 2. Murphy’s character will be “a man with mysterious intentions who joins the family unit.”
Dark Phoenix
Speaking with Screen Rant, Tye Sheridan revealed the X-Men split into two opposing factions after Jean Grey becomes The Phoenix.
…[W]hat happens with Jean Grey in the movie, it kind of splits the X-Men up into two groups. There’s one group who feels like they can still save Jean and she’s not lost; that the same Jean Grey that they’ve always known is still there. And then some of them think that she’s way too dangerous. And so it kind of causes this conflict that starts to take form in the middle of the movie. And I just think it lends itself to allowing the movie to have much more tension between those characters. And I think that’s something that we’ve seen in X-Men movies, but I think this movie is probably much more grounded and real and raw because of that.
Bloody-Disgusting also has a new Dark Phoenix poster from Wonder Con, in which Jean feels the fury of the Phoenix force.
Avengers: Endgame
Peter Serafinowicz would “neither confirm nor deny” Endgame sees the return of the Nova Corps from Guardians of the Galaxy in a recent interview with Screen Rant. Presumably, as with the Nova Corps’ storied history in the comics, at this point most of them are probably dead.
The Batman
An out-of-focus photo from Matt Reeves reveals The Batman’s old school script logo…if you squint hard enough.

Birds of Prey and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn
New pictures from the set of Birds of Prey reveal scenes of Harley out on her own and picking up a waitressing job after seemingly being dumped by The Joker — whether that’s actually Jared Leto as the clown prince of crime in the picture or merely a stand-in remains to be seen.
