As the perfect jumping on point for new and long-time X-Men fans, these extraordinary series will change everything – with only more to come in the months and years ahead.

Netflix’s Henry Cavill starrer “The Witcher” took Comic-con by storm, wherein the series’ teaser trailer and a few clips were revealed to the Hall H audience.

Joining Cavill were showrunner Lauren Schmidt Hissrich as well as co-stars Freya Allan (who plays Princess Ciri), and Anya Chalotra (who plays Yennefer of Vengerberg.)

Cavill of course plays Geralt, the titular Witcher in the short stories, novels and video games which takes place in medieval fantasy setting. He is one of the last witchers, a trained monster slayer for hire to slay deadly monstrous beasts.

“I’m a big gamer. I’ve played the games a lot,” Cavill said of what attracted him to play the character. He’s not your average hero. He’s a tough, real-world type person who won’t treat everyone differently. He’s a hero deep down.”

Cavill beat out more than 200 actors, but it took four months for him to land the part, adding that “it’s an absolute honour to bring this role to the screen.” The actor also did his own stunts in the show, and one of the exclusive clips did reveal a very physical and action packed scene.

“It’s really important for me that when you see Geralt on screen you know it’s Geralt,” Cavill said of his portrayal. “I spent all of my free time on set with a sword in my hand, getting used to the weight of the sword, day in and day out. I had three swords where I lived, and four at work. It was just practice, practice, practice.”

Another clip features Chalotra’s character of powerful sorceress Yennefer of Vengerberg and the clip shows character’s dark backstory, showing her on a beach and then later burying a dead baby. The last clip featured Allen’s Ciri, lost in the woods.

“The Witcher” is based on a book series by Polish writer Andrzej Sapkowski.

Cavill recently played a CIA assassin in this summer’s blockbuster hit Mission: Impossible – Fallout starting Tom Cruise. He also portrayed Superman in WB/DC Comics’, Batman v Superman and Justice League.

Netflix is set to debut “The Witcher” later this year. Check out the official trailer revealed at Comic-Con below:

The cast and filmmaker of the highly anticipated Terminator: Dark Fate kicked things off at Hall H at this year’s San Diego Comic-Con, with Linda Hamilton and Arnold Schwarzenegger reuniting for the first time since Terminator 2: Judgment Day stormed theaters in 1991.

“I was asked to join the production by David Ellsion at Skydance and Tim Miller who was already aboard. I came into with no particular expectation other than wanting to make the best possible Terminator movie for 2019,” said Cameron. “If I was gonna do it, I wanted Arnold in it. What do we do with the T-800? How do we create a new character for him, something no one has ever seen before? I think we came up with something pretty good.”

Cameron of course wrote and directed the 1984 original “The Terminator” and its sequel “Terminator 2: Judgment Day.”

“It’s absolutely incorrect to say I don’t need to come back,” Schwarzenegger mentioned during his panel appearance. “Of course I need to come back. I’m addicted to Terminator!”

“Ladies and gentlemen, prepare to say hello to the biggest movie star you’re gonna meet in a long, long time,” comedian O’Brien said at the big SDCC stage. He was not kidding.

Tom Cruse made a surprise appearance at the 2019 Comic-Con International in San Diego Thursday, much to the delight and surprise of the fans at SDCC. The actor appeared on stage shortly after the end of the panel for another Paramount film, “Terminator: Dark Fate.”

The moviestar also unveiled a thrilling first trailer to his upcoming action drama film ‘Top Gun: Maverick’, the highly anticipated sequel to the 1986 global blockbuster “Top Gun.”

“Thirty-four years ago I made a movie in San Diego right here,” Cruise said about the original “Top Gun.” “I actually shot across the street at a restaurant.”

“For 34 years, you guys have been very very patient with me. And I felt that it was my responsibility to finally really deliver for you,” Cruise added about the iconic film.

“Maverick” of course is Cruise’s character nickname in the original film where he played LT Pete Mitchell, a reckless young naval aviator aboard the aircraft carrier USS Enterprise. The global success of the original film made Cruise a bonafide star: grossing $356m worldwide against a modest $15 million budget, it was the highest grossing film that year.

“Everything you see in this film, obviously it’s for real. So the flying, working with the Navy, all the flying you’ll see in this picture, everything is real. I really wanted to give you all the experience of what it is to be inside that aircraft.”

Directed by Joseph Kosinski, the film co-stars Miles Teller, Jennifer Connelly, Jon Hamm, Glen Powell, Lewis Pullman, Ed Harris, and Val Kilmer who will reprise his role as Vice Admiral Tom “Iceman” Kazansky.

“Top Gun: Maverick” is set to hit theaters next June.
