Much has been said this week about the fall in Tomatometer scores for the last two episodes of Game of Thrones but, viewed as a whole, the series still retains a impressive Tomatometer score of 91%. That said, Lucasfilm and Walt Disney Pictures may have better announced the news this week earlier in the month. Last week, Disney confirmed that Star Wars franchise would be discontinued after three years by Star Wars: The Skywalker Rise (December 20, 2019) with new movies all both years. (December 12, 2022, December 20, 2024, December 18, 2026). This week, we learned that the first of these new movies Star Wars in 2022 will be produced by by Game of Thrones turners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss.

It turned out that Thanos was the "big bad guy" of the first 20 movies from the Marvel film universe. If we go back to the original Iron Man however, the villain who was mocked was the Mandarin, one of the oldest Iron Man archenemies. The road to Mandarin continued in 2013 with Iron Man 3 and the short film "All Hail the King" by Marvel One-Shot, but we have not seen it yet. Mandarin in its clbadical form. This week, in a Reddit AMA, Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige spoke directly to The Mandarin, answering "Yes" to a question about the character's future plans. The film Shang-Chi in active development is an obvious and obvious possibility. He is currently in development.

Something that We stress all the time here is that there are so many Marvel movies at this stage that many new movies have at least some Marvel stars (especially if we can include Fox movies). Jessica Chastain (who joins the club with Dark Phoenix next month ) produced and starred in a new international spy film called 355 that will start spinning on the 8 July in Paris before moving to London and Morocco. 355 will include several costar women, including Lupita Nyong & # 39; o ( Black Panther ), Penelope Cruz & Fan Bingbing (Blink of X-Men: Days of the Future Past ). We can also add to the cast Sebastian Stan, the Winter Soldier, and Edgar Ramirez (alongside Penelope Cruz in TV) The Murder of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story . (Marion Cotillard was previously badociated with Costar, but recently dropped out of school.) The title 355 refers to "Agent 355", a spy of the American Revolution.

Walt Disney Pictures proceeds, a few films a year, as part of their extensive plans to adapt their clbadic animation films into real action movies (including the Aladdin next week). Just last week, Disney announced December 23, 2020 the release date of Cruella their film reconstructing the character of the villain of 101 Dalmatians . Emma Stone has been involved for a while in playing Cruella in the 1970s haute couture world. Another Emma, Emma Thompson, signed this week to play the antagonist of the film, which which also gives us a better idea of the premise (it is actually a precedent of 101 Dalmatians ). Stone's version of Cruella will be "a brilliant designer of clothing who nevertheless works as a modest department store worker. One day, a clbady woman known as the Baroness (Thompson) entered the store, wearing Cruella's special medallion that her mother gave her, "which led Cruella to plot against her. Cruella must appear five days after Comeing to America 2 and the film West Side Story by Steven Spielberg and the same day as The Croods 2 .

Every two or three years or so, a new film brings together some older stars. Tommy Lee Jones played in Space Cowboys (with Clint Eastwood, James Garner and Donald Sutherland), then in 2013, Robert De Niro and Morgan Freeman starred in Last Vegas (just for two examples). The last film of the genre called The Comeback Trail and the stars this time will be De Niro and Freeman again, plus Jones. De Niro will play a man in debt to a mafia boss (Freeman) who "instigates insurance fraud by putting suicidal and suicidal cowboy star Duke Montana (Jones) in a badly-written western movie. intention to kill him during the match. Zach Braff (from the TV channel Scrubs ) will also appear in The Comeback Trail as a trading partner of De Niro.

Way before James Wan directed films like The Conjuring and Aquaman he was actually the director of the very first film Saw (and produced several of his sequels) . The torture horror franchise is about to return to the screens for next year (October 23, 2020), but it reaches us through a celebrity producer in the form of Chris Rock alum Saturday Night Live . Rock is apparently a longtime fan of the movies Saw . He came in the untitled film Saw which explains how to start a new story that is not a reboot, but a new film Saw will be directed by Darren Lynn Bousman, director of Saw II (37%), Saw III (28%), Saw IV (18%), and 11-11-11 ] (7%) – but could Chris Rock and James Wan's participation change the game?

Last week Pokémon Detective Pikach ] may have broken box office records and also has the very first "fresh" tomatometer score for a video game adaptation, but a film does not allow for an instant rebound of the overall concept . Be that as it may, Hollywood is still pursuing its collective plans for video game movies. This week, we learned that Mortal Kombat was one of the franchises of attempts to create video game franchises (a few times already). Producer James Wan participates in this attempt to restart Mortal Kombat which is expected to start shooting in Australia later this year. We do not know yet which games or characters of Mortal Kombat will be adapted to this new film. The first Mortal Kombat was "rotten" with 46%, and his suite Annihilation was much lower with only 2%. With Wan on board, the restart could give a boost to Fresh territory, but we are waiting to see.

The biggest challenge facing film studios other than Disney or Warner Bros. addressing their superhero movies is that there is only one Marvel Comics movie and one DC Comics group. Of course, there are other comic book publishers, but none of them is "the two big ones". One company that briefly tried to enter its space in the 1970s was Atlas Comics, created by Martin Goodman, the company's founder of the 1930s. Later became Marvel Comics. Atlas Comics has been launched with dozens of titles and some notable writers and artists, but most have been canceled in three or four issues. Paramount Pictures has nevertheless signed an agreement to adapt the titles of Atlas Comics to superhero films. Possible films include titles such as The Cougar Ironjaw Tigar-Man Grim Ghost and . the dragon . We call this piece of Paramount one of the ideas of the week, simply because playing against Marvel and DC seems insane: Atlas Comics has never been and will never compete with titles like The Avengers [19659007LeagueofJustice or X-Men . But again, remember when people thought that Iron Man was too obscure to start a franchise …
