Kevin Feige: ‘Avengers’, ‘X-Men’ Crossover Is an “Impossibility”

Posted on by

By AI Creative Media

Spider-Man might have crossed over to the Marvel Cinematic Universe in Captain America: Civil War this year, which prompted fan anticipation for possibility of a broader crossovers with X-Men and Fantastic Four sometime in the future like in the Marvel Comics.

Well, don’t get your hopes up. Marvel Studios head Kevin Feige recently put an end to this speculation during a recent interview and makes it pretty clear that such crossover won’t happen anytime soon.

“It’s an impossibility at this juncture. We certainly have enough films to keep us busy for a number of lifetimes,” Feige stated during a recent interview with Variety.

Although film rights for the mutants of X-Men and the characters of Fantastic Four are owned by 20th Century Fox, many people from both Marvel and Fox camps have expressed interest in seeing them come together, such as MCU directors Russo Brothers and Wolverine actor Hugh Jackman.

In the meantime, we can all look forward to Logan, the next X-Men movie directed James Mangold, and Guardians Vol. 2 next year. Logan comes out March 2, followed shortly by Guardians Vol 2 on April 25.

Trailer for Martin Scorsese’s latest film ‘Silence’

Posted on by

By Armando

Between ‘Silence’ and the unexpected success of ‘Hacksaw Ridge’, it appears that Andrew Garfield is having a sensational year.

Based on Shusaku Endo’s 1966 novel about a Portuguese Jesuit priest persecuted in 17th century Japan, Silence is Martin Scorsese’s latest epic movie and it looks like another Oscar contender.

Considered “one of the twentieth century’s finest novels”, Endo’s original novel wrestles with themes of religious discrimination in Japan and racism in France. In 1971 the novel was adapted for the screen by Japanese director Masahiro Shinoda, and in 2007, Scorsese announced his intention to direct his own adaption, although its been reported that he really wanted to make ‘Silence’ long before that.

The trailer starts with lead Andrew Garfield’s Father Rodrigues and Adam Driver’s Father Garrpe conversing about a journey to find their mentor Father Ferreira, played by Liam Neeson. But this plan comes with Father Valignano’s (Ciarán Hinds) ominous warming: “The moment you set foot in that country, you step into high danger.” What follows is a collage of intense scenes of violence, religious imagery and executions.

‘Silence’ is primed for awards contention, as it opens in limited release on Dec.23, 2016, just in time for Oscar consideration, followed by expansion in early 2017. See ‘Silence’ trailer below:

Jason Momoa’s axe-throwing skills isn’t just an act

By Armando

It looks like Jason found a perfect promo for the second season of Frontier.

The six-foot-three hulk was recently seen at Jack Axes Inc in St. John’s in Newfoundland, showing off his axe-throwing skills and easily hits the bullseye (some 30 feet from target with minimal effort).

Momoa, best known for his role as Khal Drogo in HBO’s “Game of Thrones,” is in St. John’s filming Discovery Canada’s “Frontier” season 2 where Momoa plays a fur-trading outlaw, Declan Harp. Frontier premiered on Nov. 6, and will continue to air until Dec. 11.

“I’m Jason Momoa. I like beer and throwing tomahawks. And if you’re in Newfoundland, you should come down to Jack Axes.”

It remains to be seen how such skills will be on display in any of his upcoming films Aquaman and Justice League. We’ll just have to wait and see.

Justice League will hit theaters November 17th, 2017 while Aquaman follows on July 26, 2018.

I love beer and throwing Hawks mahalo @jackaxesinc BOOM

Microsoft has unveiled its first PC, the Surface Studio desktop PC that rolled out in New York today. Microsoft’s biggest product announcement at its Windows 10 event this morning, Studio goes on pre-order on the same day, with limited quantities going on sale in time for Christmas.

‘It’s not just a beautiful PC, it was made to make you more creative’, Panos Panay, Corporate Vice President for Surface Computing said at a New York launch event.

‘This is a new way to create, a new way to produce, it’s absolutely a new way to work,’ said Panay. ‘You can pick any angle, any position you want,’ he added, demonstrating the hinge.

Priced at $3,000, Surface Studio is clearly aimed at the more business creative segment of it’s potential buyers, an apparent play for Apple’s creative media base and studios that have long gravitated towards its Mac desktops for more than a decade.

Also coming next month is a new version of Surface Book laptop.

Joss Whedon is interested to make a Star Wars film

In an interview with Complex, Whedon talked about many topics including his reappearance with SaveTheDay, returning to TV, his current script (“It’s a historical fiction slash horror movie about a time when the world was going insane, World War II,” he revealed), and the upcoming Wonder Woman movie.

But the most interesting tidbit came when Whedon asked about his interest towards other movie franchises. Following his experience on the Avengers movies, is answer was pretty forthcoming:

“I mean, it’s a fun thing to do, to put yourself in the service of something if you think you can add an interpretation. It’s no different than any other storytelling. Do I want to make a ‘Star Wars’ movie? Yeah.”

Then he adds.
“I was like, “I don’t want to make a Star Wars movie. Like, god dammit, why?” But I saw the trailer for Rogue awhile ago and I was like, “I want to do that.” To make a Star Wars movie and not be wed to the bigger picture.”

Its an interesting thought that is not entirely beyond the realm of possibility, given the recent comments by Disney CEO Bob Iger regarding the future of the Star Wars franchise, which “mapped out” multiple Star Wars movies in the future.
