A wild rumor suggests a very strange framing device for He-man movie. plus, Sonic 4 can jokingly explore the wild tails storyline and get yet another new look at Your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man. You get spoilers!
Jurassic World: Rebirth
In conversation with The casingDavid Koepp revealed that he has three rules for himself when writing Jurassic World: Rebirth.
Number one was – the events of the previous six films cannot be denied or disproved because I hate retcon. All science must be true (and) humor is oxygen. I thought, “Okay, if we can stick with these…”
He-Man and the Masters of the Universe
According to a recent report from insider Daniel Richtman (via Comic book movie), the upcoming Masters of the Universe movie will recast Adam as a “regular guy” in the “real world” working a “boring office job.” Apparently “the whole He-Man and the Masters of the Universe the stories are tales he heard as a small child.
From the world of John Wick: Ballerina
Speaking with Collider at CCXP Ian McShane confirmed that Winston already knew the character of Ana de Armas at the beginning of Ballerinadescribing her as “Baby Yaga”.
I know secrets about her that she will try to find out later. Obviously, I’ve followed her over the years since she was under the ballet direction of Anjelica Huston. But Winston, you still don’t know who he is, which is kind of nice. He is the more mysterious character.
At the end of the movie — I’m not giving anything away — you still don’t know more about the relationship. All I can say is that he admires her. I mean, a ballerina and a killer? It’s a deadly combination. He tries to warn her, but of course she ignores him completely. But it will be interesting. She is the baby Yaga; John Wick is Baba Yaga.
Sonic the Hedgehog 4
Speaking with IGN, Sonic the Hedgehog co-writer Pat Casey jokingly suggested a future sequel “maybe should explore” Tails’ functional immortality exhibited in the games.
You have to use real teamwork because when fighting a boss it’s Sonic’s job to stay alive and Tails’ job is to just throw his corpse at the bad guy over and over and die as many times as necessary. Maybe we should explore that in the movie sometime, the fact that Tails is immortal.
It: Welcome to Derry
During his recent appearance on the Happy Sad Confused podcast (via Fangoria), Bill Skarsgård said that Pennywise would remain “pretty hardcore” when asked if his antics would be toned down for television.
It was fun. I actually liked it more than I thought I would, and there are parts of it where we get to explore sides of the old Pennywise that we haven’t seen. And that’s fun. I remembered how much I enjoy working with Andy and we really have a lot of fun together. I think there’s some cool stuff in there that we haven’t seen and I’m excited for people to watch and enjoy it, hopefully.
