DC is responsible for some of the most memorable protagonists in comic book history and arguably shaped what the modern “superhero” character looks like. Storytellers’ obsession with mythic heroes can be traced back through classic characters such as Robin Hood, King Arthur, and Tarzan. However, the inspiration for the members of the Justice League dates back even further, as many of these characters can be compared to key figures in mythology. When compared to the other DC heroes, the hero known as “Captain Marvel,” later known as Shazam, has a somewhat different backstory; he is essentially a child’s fantasy of what a hero would look like. It turns out that this hero was actually a real person, as Shazam was modeled off of the Golden Era film star Fred MacMurray.

Speaking with Screen Rant, Lynch, known for playing Maria Rambeau in multiple MCU films, delved into potential future collaborations within the cinematic universe, revealing who she'd like to work with and addressing the gradual unveiling of the X-Men. Lynch expressed that she'd love to see more characters from 20th Century Fox's X-Men franchise and posited names already in the MCU that she's yet to share the big screen with. "The original Avengers lot, I just love them and I didn't get to work with everyone in my time in the franchise, so they would be brilliant to bring back," she said. "I love Tom Holland. He's brilliant. But there's also new, fresh faces that haven't been in the MCU yet...

Kevin Feige has been the mastermind of the MCU for more than 10 years now and has created the most commercially successful franchise in the history of cinema. Creating an interconnected universe over multiple films is an ambitious idea that many have tried and failed. But Feige’s vision and conviction made it possible.
Nelson Peltz criticized the notion of an all-female Marvel film, aimed at The Marvels
While the Infinity Saga was highly successful, the franchise is currently struggling due to incoherent narratives and their focus on quantity over quality. Nelson Peltz recently questioned some of Marvel’s casting choices and Feige’s authority over the franchise. Ironically, Peltz’s daughter has been part of a Marvel show in the past.

Box Office – Madgaon Express stays stable on Wednesday ( Photo Credit – Zee Music Company / YouTube )
Madgaon Express did well on Wednesday as it stayed stable at the box office. On Tuesday, the day after Holi, the film had collected 1.46 crores which was hardly any drop from Friday’s numbers of 1.63 crores. Now, on Wednesday, when the Holi holiday effect has worn off, the film still did well enough to bring on 1.21 crores.
The drop is lesser than expected as one thought that the film would manage to cross 1 crore mark, but still just about. However, it has managed over 20 lakhs more and that indicates good trending. That said, from an absolute numbers perspective, the film is still just about hanging in there, and that should stay on to be the case today as well. What it would all eventually boil down to is how well does the momentum continue in the second weekend.

The fight to land two seats on Disney’s board is still ongoing and Nelson Peltz is hitting the global entertainment company with everything he’s got. In his newest round of attacks, he’s called the company’s strategy too “woke” that it’s eroding the very concept of entertainment.
Nelson Peltz Blasts “The Marvels” And “Black Panther” As “Woke” Films
Watch out Kevin Feige, because Nelson Peltz isn’t only after Disney’s CEO Bob Iger. In a recent interview with The Financial Times, Peltz attacked the Marvel chief, accusing him of focusing on the “woke” aspects of reality rather than thriving to making pure entertainment instead.
While he claims he isn’t looking forward to unseating any of them – that is Bob Iger and Kevin Feige – he did share his belief that the company’s mindset will need to shift if it still wants to remain the entertainment giant it is today.

Steve Yockey, creator of the Max series “The Flight Attendant,” is joining Starfleet as the new screenwriter for “Star Trek 4.”
Story details remain under a powerful cloaking device, but Paramount Pictures and Bad Robot still intend the project to be the final chapter for the cast that rebooted the franchise in movie theaters with 2009’s “Star Trek,” including Chris Pine (as Capt. James T. Kirk), Zachary Quinto (as Cmdr. Spock), Zoe Saldaña (as Lt. Nyota Uhura), Karl Urban (as Dr. Leonard McCoy), John Cho (as Lt. Hikaru Sulu) and Simon Pegg (as chief engineer Montgomery Scott). (Variety first reported the news in its cover story on the future of the “Star Trek” franchise.)

For a few years now, there’s been a noticeable decline in the quality of superhero movies, evident in both critical reception and box office performance. By 2023, superhero fatigue had reached its peak. Two out of three Marvel Studios releases had failed to impress, with ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’ barely breaking even and ‘The Marvels’ becoming the lowest-grossing MCU movie to date.
The Dceu didn’t fare any better. The year kicked off with ‘Shazam! Fury of the Gods,’ which flopped critically and financially, followed by ‘The Flash.’ However, expectations for ‘The Flash’ weren’t high, especially considering controversies surrounding its lead actor. ‘Blue Beetle’ also failed to make an impact despite its wholesome family story. Surprisingly, the year ended on a somewhat positive note with ‘Aquaman and The Lost Kingdom,’ which managed to be a relative success, earning $434.38 million at the box office.

Recently, it’s been rumored that Disney has canceled a few upcoming Marvel films and shows, including “Eternals 2, a third “Captain Marvel” film, and a fourth Ant-Man movie. These rumors have come after Disney CEO Bob Iger made comments about quietly canceling some projects.
Now, in a video from The Hollywood Reporter, Ant-Man star Paul Rudd is asked if “After Quantumania, what are the odds that we will get yet another stand-alone Marvel movie from Ant-Man?”
Rudd answers that he doesn’t know. His exact response was, “I have no idea. I don’t know. Yeah, that’s not for me to answer. You would have to go to Kevin Feige and those guys, I guess.”

It’s no secret that Disney’s effort to display more diversity has been criticized in the past, and it becomes a hotbed of controversy. The debate would notably heat up when established characters would be cast with actors of another race or sex. However, movies like Marvel Studios’ Black Panther films and The Marvels would attempt to capitalize on the brand’s comic IP, which has already been established in the comic world as diverse characters. The reception of the movies would differ, as the Black Panther movies became smash hits at the box office while The Marvels fizzled with some of the studio’s lowest performances.
While the success of these films and other films like Black Widow or the upcoming Captain America: Brave New World seem to fluctuate with the popularity or reception of the characters, Disney activist investor Nelson Peltz would recently call into question why...

Investor Nelson Peltz, who wants to secure two seats on Disney’s board, faced criticism for his remarks about Disney’s efforts to include more women and minorities in movies. In a recent interview with the Financial Times, the 81-year-old businessman, who isn’t familiar with the media industry, questioned why films like ‘The Marvels’ and ‘Black Panther’ need to have all-female or all-Black casts. Peltz wondered aloud why these movies couldn’t feature diverse casts with both genders, expressing his opinion against exclusively female or Black-led Marvel films.
Why do I have to have a Marvel [movie] that’s all women? Not that I have anything against women, but why do I have to do that? Why can’t I have Marvels that are both? Why do I need an all-Black cast?

But, Nelson Peltz, an activist investor, questions Feige’s ability to run MCU following recent disappointments in terms of movies, series, and the Jonathan Majors controversy.

Over the years, Marvel Studios under Kevin Feige has produced movies, keeping not only the superheroes from the comic books in mind but also what the audience would like to see on screen. The audience and the critics have appreciated movies like Black Panther and The Marvels; irrespective of their response at the box office. So when the representation in the movies were questions,...

Nelson Peltz investor aiming to win two Disney board seats recently found himself in hot water after he made several comments aimed toward Disney’s “woke” strategy, aiming to include women and minorities in the movies more.
In a recent interview with the Financial Times, 81-year-old businessman Peltz, who lacks experience in the media industry, questioned the need for films like ‘The Marvels’ and ‘Black Panther’ to have all-female or all-Black casts. Peltz rhetorically asked why such movies couldn’t feature both genders and diverse casts, expressing his opinion against the necessity of exclusively female or Black-led Marvel films.
Why do I have to have a Marvel [movie] that’s all women? Not that I have anything against women, but why do I have to do that? Why can’t I have Marvels that are both? Why do I need an all-Black cast?

For many years, Marvel fans have been begging the Marvel Studios for a standalone Hulk film, but their request was always denied. However, it looks like Marvel is finally going to grant the fans their request as they are coming up with a standalone film for Mark Ruffalo with World War Hulk.

However, that’s not all as the Marvel Cinematic Universe is going to take charge, as the superhero franchise seems to be in disarray. However, the upcoming film is going to mark a new era as it will sow the seeds for reuniting the Avengers for a bigger threat.

Ever since the release of the last MCU film, which was none other than the infamous The Marvels, there have been rumors going around that claimed actress Brie Larson’s days as Carol Danvers, aka Captain Marvel, had come to an end.
But at the time, there were no concrete pieces of evidence to support these claims, and as new reports started to roll in, it seemed less likely that the character or the actress was going anywhere.
Brie Larson in and as Captain Marvel
As new information has started to flow in, it seems like Captain Marvel may have a lot more to do in the franchise in the future. New insider reports claim Danvers may seek the help of Sorcerer Supreme Wong as well as Bruce Banner to help understand the powers of The Quantum Bands while also attempting to bring back Monica Rambeau to the main MCU universe.

As the Disney board proxy fight nears its deciding day, activist investor Nelson Peltz is taking aim at what he calls the company’s “woke” film strategy, particularly as it pertains to Black Panther and The Marvels.
In a recent interview with The Financial Times, Peltz questioned the leadership of Marvel chief Kevin Feige and the larger movie strategy under Disney CEO Bob Iger. Though he said he did not want either leader unseated (Peltz is outwardly campaigning to take the board seats of current members Michael B.G. Froman and Maria Elena Lagomasino), he questioned how long Feige should remain and what the strategy should be moving forward.
“People go to watch a movie or a show to be entertained,” Peltz said in the interview. “They don’t go to get a message.

After spending years as a respected leader of the sovereign mutant nation Krakoa, Cyclops is back on the run. With Krakoa destroyed and humanity ready to oppress mutants again, Cyclops has gone back home to Alaska to refresh and regroup.
And yet, things have never been better for Scott Summers a.k.a. Cyclops. The upcoming From the Ashes relaunch will force the X-Men back into the world after the end of Krakoa in the Fall of X storyline, with a new X-Men book with Cyclops in the lead.

McKenna Grace reprises her lead role as Phoebe in “Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire,” which led the weekend box office with $45 million. At 17 she is not yet a household name, but she laid some groundwork early: At age six she had a supporting role on the Disney Channel sitcom “Crash & Bernstein.” Later she received an Emmy nomination for her work in “The Handmaid’s Tale,” and portrayed the younger selves for the leads in movies like “I, Tonya” and “Captain Marvel.”
Her “Ghostbusters” co-star is Finn Wolfhard, who made his debut at 13 in CW’s “Supernatural” before starring in “Stranger Things” and “It.” Zendaya, star of “Dune: Part Two,” got her start as a Disney Channel regular. Her co-star, Oscar-nominated Austin Butler, cut his teeth at Nickelodeon.

Black Panther's New MCU Show Will Introduce A Wild New Avengers Team According To Bold Marvel Theory
The animated series Eyes of Wakanda will explore Wakanda's past across various eras, potentially introducing the first Black Panthers, Bashenga and Mosi. In the comics, Mosi is a founding member of the prehistoric Avengers 1,000,000 B.C., the predecessors of heroes like Doctor Strange, Moon Knight, Iron Fist, and Jean Grey. The interactions between the Avengers 1,000,000 B.C. and Odin, the Celestials, the Eternals, and the Phoenix Force could add a lot of value to the McU's lore.
Black Panther’s new MCU series, Eyes of Wakanda, may introduce one character known for assembling a special team of Avengers. The MCU’s upcoming animated series Eyes of Wakanda, which will explore various eras of the fictional African kingdom, is unique in that it takes place throughout the MCU’s chronological timeline within the franchise’s main universe — Earth-616.

Ant-Man's future in the MCU is unclear, as actor Paul Rudd expressed uncertainty about another standalone film. With the lukewarm reception of Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, the viability of continuing the Ant-Man series is in question. Despite this, Ant-Man could still make appearances in ensemble films or upcoming Avengers projects, due to his flexible character nature.
Paul Rudd recently addressed the possibility of another standalone Ant-Man film, while promoting his latest film, Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire. Rudd has played as Scott Lang, also known as Ant-Man, since 2015. With three standalone films under his belt, the future of Ant-Man in the MCU has fans speculating.

When Thanos snapped his fingers in Avengers: Infinity War, he didn't just wipe out half of all life in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Even though the heroes managed to reverse the action in Avengers: Endgame, the Mad Titan changed history forever. Almost every MCU movie and TV show released since then has dealt with the consequences or acknowledged the event in some way. Even the ones that don't directly address the Blip are affected, with fans left to speculate about who survived and who was erased from existence for five years.
The MCU has introduced plenty of new heroes in its next epic story, the Multiverse Saga. While not all of their stories make it explicitly clear if they were Blipped, there's often enough evidence for viewers to work out a plausible answer. From Yelena Belova to Kamala Khan, here's what audiences know about who was affected by Thanos's snap.

Over a year ago, ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’ came out. It was a big deal for a few reasons. Firstly, it kicked off Phase 5 of the MCU and introduced Kang the Conqueror, who was set to become the next big villain in the Multiverse Saga. But after it hit theaters, things went downhill. The movie didn’t do well financially—it didn’t even make back its production costs. And critics weren’t too kind either; the reviews were mixed at best.
Shortly after the premiere, Jonathan Majors faced a major setback. He was arrested and charged with assault by his ex-girlfriend. Disney took action 10 months later in December, firing him when he was found guilty. ‘Quantumania’ played a role in setting off changes at the studio, and ‘The Marvels’ solidified them.

More than a year ago ‘Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’ was released. It was an important movie in several aspects first, it was the first movie in MCU’s Phase 5 and the first movie to introduce Kang the Conqueror, a character that was bound to be the next major villain in Multiverse Saga. Soon after the release of the movie things started to go awry. The movie was a box-office disappointment and one of the few movies in the MCU that didn’t even break even when all costs are taken into consideration. Critical reception wasn’t good either, the film received mixed reviews at best.

Captain Marvel may hold the key to battling Kang across realities, thanks to her incredible energy output shown in The Marvels. Ms. Marvel specified that it takes the power of a sun to travel to another dimension. A team of heroes with unique powers, including Captain Marvel, may be needed to defeat Kang as he traverses the multiverse.
The Avengers will need help battling against Kang in Avengers: The Kang Dynasty, and Ms. Marvel and The Marvels collectively tease a huge power upgrade for one hero that may be crucial. When Thanos destroyed the Infinity Stones in Avengers: Endgame, it took the combined knowledge of Tony Stark and team Ant-Man to develop the time-travel technology needed to win. Kang's gimmick is multiversal travel, so it may take a new combination of heroes to give the Avengers a chance.

Mutants are slowly being introduced into the MCU, with the X-Men reboot expected to bring in fresh faces. After her recent disappointing spin in The Marvels, Brie Larson's Carol Danvers may be removed from the MCU, and one X-Men member could set this up. Rogue stole Carol Danvers' powers in Marvel Comics, which could mark the perfect farewell to the strangely-controversial Avenger in the MCU.
The introduction of Marvel Studios' mutant characters in the X-Men reboot in the MCU could set up a tragic ending for one of the franchise's strongest and most controversial Avengers. Marvel Studios began to integrate mutants into the MCU after Disney acquired 20th Century Fox's properties in 2019, beginning with Ms. Marvel's Kamala Khan and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever's Namor. This has been a slow process so far, but 2024's Deadpool & Wolverine and Marvel Studios' upcoming X-Men reboot are expected to bring mutants into the MCU en masse,...

Disney's box office dominance after numerous acquisitions faltered post-pandemic, leading to project cancelations. Strategic shifts in film development based on audience trends influenced the fate of various Disney projects. High-profile projects like Armor Wars, Bambi, and Captain Marvel 3 faced potential cancelation due to changing priorities.
Disney is one of the largest companies in the world, and following acquisitions like Star Wars, Pixar, and Marvel, it seemed like a studio that could not lose. From 2015 to 2019, they seemed to dominate the box office. However, after the Covid-19 pandemic, the company has struggled to regain its box-office domination. CEO Bob Iger's recent comment about quietly canceling movies has certainly raised some eyebrows. Unlike Warner Bros., which seems to make big splashy announcements about completed films they have canceled, Disney has just not moved forward on projects that were in development, but the camera never likely rolled on them. This is certainly nothing new,...
