Stick around to the end of the Lightning Round for our Joker: Folie A Deux trailer instant reaction!
Surfing to the Silver Screen
Ozark star Julia Garner will play the Silver Surfer in Matt Shakman’s upcoming Fantastic Four movie. Rather than the well-known Norrin Radd version of the comics character, Garner will likely portray Shalla-Bal - a version of the Silver Surfer found in the Earth X storyline from Marvel comics. Unsurprisingly, the backlash on the internet was almost immediate.
Dune: Messiah Prophecy Fulfilled
Denis Villeneuve and Legendary are officially developing a third installment in the new Dune franchise. The recent sequel, Dune Part Two, is still playing in box offices to great success having grossed more than $630 million worldwide. Between all of this success, the HBO series focused on the Bene Gesserit is still scheduled to premiere sometime in 2024.
Supergirl Finds Director
I, Tonya, Cruella, and Dumb Money director Craig Gillespie will head the Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow movie for DC Studios. Studio co-chair James Gunn has alluded that his vision for this iteration of Supergirl will be a more serious take than the recent portrayal on the CW Supergirl series. The film does not currently have a release date.
Don’t Unplug for Matrix 5
Warner Brothers recently announced that a fifth Matrix movie is currently in development. Filmmaking duties will no longer land with Lana or Lily Wachowski, instead Drew Goddard - nominated for an Oscar for his screenwriting on The Martian, is in charge. But have no fear, Lana Wachowski is on board as an executive producer. Details about the plot, including if franchise stars Carrie-Ann Moss and Keanu Reeves will return, are not available. Can another new Matrix movie retake the box office?
