The final member of the Justice League movie (minus Superman) has now been introduced thanks to the fifth and final (?) character teaser. We’ve already become acquainted with Zack Snyder‘s takes on Batman, Wonder Woman, The Flash, and Aquaman, so it falls to Ray Fisher‘s Victor Stone, a.k.a. Cyborg, to anchor the superhero team. Cyborg is definitely the biggest wild card here. We’ve got a pretty good feel … Continue reading Cyborg Powers Up in the Latest ‘Justice League’ Character Trailer!!! Check It Out!!
Another character teaser and poster from Justice League has been revealed, this time focusing on Gal Gadot‘s Wonder Woman. Since Wonder Woman’s solo film is coming out so soon, there isn’t a lot that we haven’t seen teased in that movie’s trailers and character profiles, but it’s still fun to see Gadot transfer from some sleek daywear into her fierce hero costume, complete with all … Continue reading Wonder Woman Brings Out the Cuffs in New ‘Justice League’ Trailer Teaser!!! Check It Out!!
As we await the premiere of the new Justice League trailer tomorrow, short character teasers for the title team continue to roll out. We’ve already seen Aquaman and Batman take the stage, and now Ezra Miller‘s The Flash can be seen suiting up for action. It’s a quick video but you can glimpse a few things that give us an idea of what Zack Snyder‘s version of the … Continue reading The Flash Suits Up in a New ‘Justice League’ Character Teaser Trailer!!!

It appears we’re not getting just one trailer teaser for Justice League, we’re getting five. This morning a teaser for the first official Justice League trailer arrived, and it was Aquaman-centric. But now a new Batman-centric one has landed online, signaling we’re going to be seeing bits and pieces of footage tailored to each member of the Justice League leading up to the trailer debut. … Continue reading Another ‘Justice League’ Trailer Teaser Shows Off Batman’s Guns!!! Check It Out!!!
Although the DCEU is still struggling to find its footing (I’m putting my faith in Wonder Woman to right the ship), Warner Bros. is moving full steam ahead. And while Justice League doesn’t open until November, the first trailer is due out on Saturday. The studio has released a brief trailer teaser featuring Aquaman (Jason Momoa), which indicates that before Saturday rolls around we might … Continue reading ‘Justice League’ Trailer Teaser Has Aquaman Using His Ocean Powers!!! Check It Out!!!
Justice League has an interesting promotional rollout so far. Coming off the widespread negative response to Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Warner Bros. made quick moves to get some positive buzz around Zack Snyder‘s follow-up, hosting a rather large set visit with an immediate embargo lift (usually set visit stories are held until weeks before the film is released) and dropping a sizzle reel at Comic-Con … Continue reading ‘Justice League’: New Image Finds Wonder Woman, Aquaman and Cyborg Ready for a Fight!!! Check It Out!!
Oh, Flash, you poor poor speedster. The long-planned solo movie for Ezra Miller‘s Justice Leaguer has faced a rocky path to production since it was announced back in 2014. In the midst of Warner Bros. and DC Films redirection for the DC Extended Universe, The Flash has lost two filmmakers — Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter scribe Seth Grahame-Smith and Dope helmer Rick Famuyiwa — and now the … Continue reading ‘The Flash’ Movie Getting Page One Rewrite from ‘King Arthur’ Scribe!!!
So far, other than a fairly exciting trailer for Zack Snyder‘s Justice League, the still images released for the Warner Bros. superhero team-up movie have not revealed much at all. In fact, Batman (Ben Affleck), Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot), The Flash (Ezra Miller), Cyborg (Ray Fisher) and Aquaman (Jason Momoa) all seem to be trapped within the same industrial complex glimpsed in each and every one of them. Today’s new … Continue reading ‘Justice League’: New Image Shows Our Heroes Still In That Same Building!!! Check It Out!!
Warner Bros. has released a new Justice League image, and it shows off Batman (Ben Affleck), Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot), Cyborg (Ray Fisher), Flash (Ezra Miller), and Aquaman (Jason Momoa). There’s no Superman (Henry Cavill) because Superman is busy being dead. If you were hoping to gleam some plot details from this image, you’re out of luck. Instead, let’s just focus on the costumes. It … Continue reading New ‘Justice League’ Image Lines up the Heroes Minus Superman!!! Check It Out!!
Two familiar faces from the DCEU are popping back in for Justice League. As part of an official press kit for Warner Bros.’ upcoming release slate for the 2017 year, a cast list for the superhero team-up names Jesse Eisenberg and Connie Nielsen among the roster. Eisenberg already made his first appearance as Lex Luthor in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and the film’s … Continue reading ‘Justice League’ Will Feature the Return of Two Previously Seen DC Characters!!!
We’re less than a year away from the highly anticipated release of Zack Snyder‘s Justice League, the DCEU installment that will follow up on the events of next summer’s Wonder Woman. The epic team-up film brings Gal Gadot‘s Amazon warrior together with Ben Affleck‘s Batman, Ezra Miller‘s The Flash, and more. This trio is on display in a new image from the upcoming superhero smash-up. EW premiered the image along with … Continue reading ‘Justice League’: New Image Unites Batman, Wonder Woman, and The Flash!! Check It Out!!
Zack Snyder is currently in post-production on the highly anticipated DC Comics superhero team-up movie Justice League. Though that film’s release date is a little less than a year away, its follow-up film, which had previously been set for a mid-2019 release, is now being delayed so that Ben Affleck‘s standalone Batman film can nab a spot on the schedule. Now, Snyder has a window available for another project … Continue reading ‘Justice League: Part Two’ Delayed to Accommodate Ben Affleck’s Standalone ‘Batman’ Film!!!
Synopsis – The adventures of writer Newt Scamander in New York’s secret community of witches and wizards seventy years before Harry Potter reads his book in school. My Take – Weren’t we all sad when Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 (2011) drew its curtain and ended a franchise running for 10 years. Like me, I am quite sure many Potter fans felt that … Continue reading Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (2016) Review!!!
As a franchise, Harry Potter is somewhat unique. The series opened with two simply unbearable and weightless adventures courtesy of Christopher Columbus, who went for adorable and ended up with two atonal messes that even a big fan of the franchise (such as myself) cannot return to, to this very day. Then, out of nowhere, Alfonso Cuaron came in with Prisoner of Azkaban and created … Continue reading ‘Fantastic Beasts’: David Yates Feels “Committed” to Directing All 5 Films!!
In addition to being the author behind the worldwide Harry Potter phenomenon and the writer of the screenplay for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, J.K. Rowling has been a celebrity advocate for human rights — that includes LGBTQ rights. While she previously told fans that there are, of course, gay characters in her magical world, we may see Albus Dumbledore himself as an openly gay wizard on the … Continue reading ‘Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them’ Sequels Could Feature an Openly Gay Dumbledore!!
When news broke that Johnny Depp was set to “co-star” in Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them 2, the sequel to this month’s wizarding world expansion Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, speculation immediately zeroed in on who Depp might play. Given that Gellert Grindelwald, former friend/crush of Albus Dumbledore, supposedly has a major role to play in this new Fantastic Beasts franchise, folks began wondering if Depp might be bringing … Continue reading ‘Fantastic Beasts 2’: Johnny Depp Confirmed as Grindelwald; Setting Revealed!!
When Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them was first announced, we expected to hear or see some references to the original Harry Potter films. The trailers even dropped the name Albus Dumbledore a number of times, as well as the dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald, who was referenced in The Deathly Hallows. With four more sequels on the way, we know that Grindelwald will be making a physical appearance, and … Continue reading ‘Fantastic Beasts’ Sequels Are Casting Albus Dumbledore!!!
Back in May, we learned that the villain of Justice League would be Steppenwolf, who was glimpsed in a deleted scene from Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. The character, who is the uncle of Darkseid (the DC Universe’s equivalent of Thanos) in the comics, decided to invade in Earth in the New 52 series. He’s an extraterrestrial threat who would certainly warrant the formation of a team of superheroes. … Continue reading ‘Game of Thrones’ Star Ciaran Hinds to Play ‘Justice League’ Villain Steppenwolf!!!
While we still have a few weeks to go before the release of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Warner Bros. is wasting no time in getting the sequel ready. Indeed, we learned last month that author/screenwriter J.K. Rowling is planning a five-film franchise in all, with director David Yates—who helmed the final four Harry Potter movies in addition to Fantastic Beasts—also returning to helm Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them 2. And … Continue reading Johnny Depp to Co-Star in ‘Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them 2’!!
The Flash is having a bumpy run to the big screen. While the character previously made his big screen debut earlier this year in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and had a small cameo in Suicide Squad, his solo film has been running into difficulties. Back in April, screenwriter Seth Grahame-Smith, who was set to make his feature directing debut on the film, parted ways with the project. Then in … Continue reading ‘The Flash’ Loses Director Rick Famuyiwa; Release To Be Delayed!!
Harry Potter fans got a long-distance return (well, except those lucky Londonites privy to West End tickets) to J.K. Rowling‘s world of witchcraft and wizardry with the Jack Thorne-scripted stage play Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, but when Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them arrives in theaters next month, fans the world over will get to return to the wizarding world, just in a bit of a different … Continue reading ‘Fantastic Beasts’ Tracking for $75 Million Box Office Debut!!
In the latest TV spots for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, the night is dark and full of terrors (i.e. magical creatures). The titular beasties inside Newt Scamander’s enchanted briefcase are taking the spotlight as the marketing campaign for the film releases its last pieces of new footage ahead of showtime in a couple weeks. While brief, the new videos (via ComicBook.com’s YouTube channel) offer … Continue reading ‘Fantastic Beasts’ TV Spots Are Full of Things That Go Bump in the Night!! Check Them Out!!
I guess Zack Snyder is the kind of guy who remembers anniversaries. We got our first look at J.K. Simmons’s Commissioner Gordon last month for Batman Day, and with Wonder Woman celebrating her 75th anniversary today, Snyder has offered up a new look at Gal Gadot‘s Amazonian superhero in action for Justice League. Though her appearance was brief, Gadot’s Wonder Woman was widely praised as one of the highlights from Batman v Superman: … Continue reading ‘Justice League’: Zack Snyder Reveals New Wonder Woman Image!! Check It Out!!
Two of the biggest superhero blockbuster films arriving in 2017 will be Justice League and the Power Rangers movie reboot. And, in an effort to promote both projects, DC Comics and Saban Brands is partnering with BOOM! Studios for a Justice League / Mighty Morphin Power Rangers crossover comic book. The project was announced this morning as several outlets (including Power Rangers Now) apparently broke embargo to ran with the headline. The … Continue reading Justice League / Power Rangers Promotional Comic Book Arriving in January 2017!!
Warner Bros. has apparently gone all in on J.K. Rowling‘s Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them franchise. It was announced during the upcoming film’s live event earlier today that the magical adventure debuting this November will be but the first in a total of five feature films. That means Rowling, the studio, and their creative team has a lot of faith (and finances) invested in the world … Continue reading ‘Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them’ Will Be the First of 5 Movies!!
Warner Bros. is certainly taking a curious approach to marketing its DC Films in the wake of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. While we all knew that Justice League was director Zack Snyder’s big follow-up film to the superhero smackdown, we also knew that Warner Bros. had a pair of standalone films hitting theaters before the big superhero team-up—Suicide Squad and Wonder Woman. And yet, in order to qualm fears … Continue reading ‘Justice League’: First Look at Amber Heard as Mera Revealed!! Check It Out!!
It’s a new age of magic for fans of J.K. Rowling’s wizarding world, and soon we’ll get to meet the new quartet of characters at the center of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, a Harry Potter prequel story about the magizoologist Newt Scamander and his arrival in New York City in the 1920s. While there’s still a great deal of mystery surrounding the plot of this tale, … Continue reading ‘Fantastic Beasts’ Character Posters Introduce the Faces of a New Franchise!! Check It Out!!
The various actors who make up the cast of Zack Snyder‘s epic Justice League movie have been wrapping their individual shooting schedules over the last few weeks, but now the U.K. production is well and truly wrapped. Snyder took to social media to celebrate this fact, and to thank the U.K. for being awesome, and shared an incredible behind-the-scenes look at the production. There’s a lot to unpack … Continue reading ‘Justice League’ Wraps Filming, Releases Insane Behind-the-Scenes Video to Celebrate!! Check It Out!!
If you watched Suicide Squad and thought to yourself, “Give me more of this,” you’re in luck. Just as they did with Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Warner Bros. will be releasing an extended cut of writer/director David Ayer’s Suicide Squad on home video, giving fans the opportunity to see even more of the villain team’s violent hijinks. Indeed, fans can watch this extended cut—with 13 minutes of new footage—on … Continue reading ‘Suicide Squad’ Extended Cut Coming to Blu-ray and Digital HD!!
If you want to get yourself psyched up for the upcoming Harry Potter spinoff, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, then you may want to take the week of October 13th off and head to your local IMAX theater. Warner Bros. and IMAX have announced that all eight Harry Potter films are being re-released in IMAX for a one-week exclusive engagement. Additionally, the first two Potter films, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s … Continue reading All 8 ‘Harry Potter’ Movies Coming to IMAX for One Week Only!!

Happy Batman Day, folks! It seems like everyone is getting in on celebrating The Bat. Earlier we got a new The Lego Batman Movie poster reminding you to always be yourself unless you can be Batman. And now Zack Snyder has joined the party with a first look image at J.K. Simmons as the DCEU’s new Commissioner Jim Gordon in Justice League. We’ve seen a surprising amount of Justice League considering production is only … Continue reading ‘Justice League’ Celebrates Batman Day with First Look at J.K. Simmons’ Commissioner Gordon!!

Zack Snyder‘s Justice League is currently filming in London, but as the director just confirmed over social media, they’re in the homestretch. J.K. Simmons wrapped filming his role as Commissioner James Gordon recently, and Ben Affleck’s Batman is apparently done as well. But the Batfleck wouldn’t leave without offering up a little teaser for fans awaiting the newest Warner Bros./DC Comics collaboration, so now we have a good look at the brand … Continue reading ‘Justice League’: New Batsuit Revealed by Zack Snyder as Ben Affleck Wraps Filming!! Check it Out!!
It’s no secret that when Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2 closed out the Harry Potter film franchise, Warner Bros. was still considering different ways of keeping the brand alive. After all, the Harry Potter franchise as a whole grossed over $8 billion, and the ancillary revenue stream alone is worth keeping alive. We now know that Warner Bros.’ golden ticket was Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, … Continue reading ‘Fantastic Beasts’ Was Originally Considered as a Documentary-Style Film!!
There aren’t many actors who are quite as reliable as Billy Crudup. Occasionally, he’s outright brilliant, as in Cameron Crowe’s lovely Almost Famous, Jesus’ Son, Public Enemies, Glass Chin, and last year’s undervalued The Stanford Prison Experiment. In other cases, such as in Watchmen, Sleepers, and Mission Impossible 3, he gives thinly written characters tremendous poise and a distinct signature in movement and delivery. Even … Continue reading ‘The Flash’: Billy Crudup to Play Father to Everyone’s Favorite Speedster!!
Back in June, we got the confirmation from Justice League producer Deborah Snyder that Steppenwolf would be the main villain in the film. However, it looks like he won’t be the only antagonist in the movie. Yesterday, Ben Affleck tweeted out the following: https://t.co/0NsNzCtGip — Ben Affleck (@BenAffleck) August 29, 2016 That looks a lot like Deathstroke. For those who are unfamiliar with the character, his real name is Slade Wilson, and he … Continue reading ‘Justice League’: Ben Affleck Reveals New Villain!! Check it Out!!
David Ayer‘s Suicide Squad is looking to steal another #1 spot at the box office this weekend. That would put the Warner Bros./DC Comics film in elite competition in 2016 since only Deadpool, Zootopia, The Jungle Book, and Finding Dory have managed to hold off newcomers for the top spot three weekends in a row. In other words, it’s a feat that neither Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice or Captain … Continue reading ‘Suicide Squad’s Box Office Tally Tops $500 Million Worldwide!!
Hopefully this isn’t too big of a spoiler for you, but Superman isn’t dead. Even if you haven’t yet seen Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Henry Cavill has been posting on-set and workout pics from Justice League on Instagram, and the Warner Bros. panel at Comic-Con revealed the Man of Steel joining the rest of DC’s core pantheon. But, it looks like Superman will be getting a major costume change when … Continue reading ‘Justice League’: Henry Cavill Teases Black Superman Suit for Zack Snyder Film!! Check It Out!!
While the movie still doesn’t come out for over a year, the logo for Justice League has gotten an upgrade. We got our first look at the title treatment for director Zack Snyder’s follow-up film to Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice back in June, when we here at Collider shared a bevy of set visit coverage just a few days after returning from the London soundstage where Justice League is shooting. … Continue reading ‘Justice League’ Gets a New Metal-Infused Logo!! Check It Out!!
Suicide Squad cost about $175 million to produce and that it would need to earn $750-800 million just to break even. While the film has managed a huge opening weekend, it will be interesting to see if the film has legs in the face of negative reviews from critics and possibly audiences. The movie needs all the help it can get, but it doesn’t look like it … Continue reading ‘Suicide Squad’ May Not Get Released in China!!
A couple weeks ago, it was reported that Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them 2 was already planning to take the story in a new direction. The script is already written and unless Fantastic Beasts is a massive bomb (which is unlikely), the studio is already planning to move ahead with the sequel. Warner Bros. has announced that Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them 2 will be released on … Continue reading ‘Fantastic Beasts’ Sequel Gets 2018 Release Date!!
Synopsis – A secret government agency recruits a group of imprisoned supervillains to execute dangerous black ops missions in exchange for clemency, which inevitably leads to chaos. My Take – This one has been the long gestating DC Comics film that every single fan on the planet has been waiting for. From the controversial casting of Jared Leto as the Joker to the rumored re-shoots, … Continue reading Suicide Squad (2016) Review!!!
One of the best things about Ryan Coogler taking on Black Panther is that he brought along his favored leading man, Michael B. Jordan, to play the villain of the film, Erik Killmonger. Not only would this be Jordan’s second Marvel character, after portraying the Human Torch in Josh Trank‘s troubled yet fascinating Fantastic Four, it would also mean that the actor gets to play … Continue reading ‘The Flash’: Kiersey Clemons Confirmed as Iris West in Upcoming DC Film!!

I am incredibly excited for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, as I imagine most other Harry Potter fans are as well. Warner Bros. was always going to continue the Potter franchise in some way after Deathly Hallows, so it’s great to know that the series remains in the hands of its creator—J.K. Rowling—and isn’t some simple cash-grab on which Rowling carries some meaningless “Executive Producer” title. Instead, when Warner … Continue reading ‘Fantastic Beasts’ Sequel Takes the Story in a “New Direction”; Script Already Written!!
As production on Justice League is well underway and Wonder Woman is wrapped, it’s time for Warner Bros. to start stoking the fires for its next installment in the DC Extended Universe, and that would be The Flash movie. After jettisoning Seth Grahame-Smith from the director’s chair, Warner Bros. set Rick Famuyiwa to take the helm based primarily on the promise he showed with his Sundance hit Dope. Now, as the superhero film begins to take … Continue reading ‘The Flash’ Movie Eyes ‘Dope’ Actress Kiersey Clemons for Female Lead!!
After the negative reviews received for BvS:The Dawn of Justice earlier this year, there were rumors that Warner Bros was considering delaying the filming of the upcoming Justice League films. Warner Bros quickly they shot down that rumor and claimed that filming was still set to begin in April this year. Since that time though, we have not heard any further news on its production or … Continue reading Justice League Rumored To Have Cast Colin Farrell In A Mystery Role!!
When studios are bending over backwards to keep secrecy at a premium, it’s refreshing to see Warner Bros. be so open with Justice League. Following last week’s set visit report, the studio has now released a new piece of concept art on the bonus features for the Batman v Superman: Ultimate Edition, which was released today on Digital HD (the Blu-ray hits stores next month). The concept … Continue reading New ‘Justice League’ Concept Art Revealed!!!
