Avengers (comics) in other media

Image: Marvel StudiosIt turns out that you’re never too big to get cut down to size by your friends in the group chat. Soon after Chris Evans’ Sexiest Man Alive cover for People went wide, the original Avengers—Chris Hemsworth, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, and Mark Ruffalo—immediately began to text each other. I fully endorse this kind of absurdity because I find it hilarious that all these attractive people are more or less calling each other “loser” like high school frenemies.Hemsworth revealed…

While the film itself can maybe bite off more than it can chew, Wakanda Forever handles the passing of Boseman and his character T’Challa with an equal amount of appropriate somberness and genuine love through its 161-minute runtime.…

You never know who you’ll run into as various shows air. When discussing what the curve is like to tap in those characters into the parks,Serna revealed, “Some of the times they surprise us by certain things that come in…

Image: Marvel StudiosMarvel movies tend to have big box office openings, and Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is no exception. With the promise of Letitia Wright’s Shuri taking up the heroic mantle, the film being a tribute to the late Chadwick Boseman, and seeing Wakanda go to war with the underwater warrior Namor (Tenoch Huerta), expectations for the film were pretty massive. And financially, the superhero sequel has blown those expectations out of the water. Per Variety and at time of writing, Wakanda Forever has made a…

Namor, leader of the Talokan.Image: Marvel StudiosWhen Kevin Feige took the stage at San Diego Comic-Con earlier this year, fans began to see where the Marvel Cinematic Universe was going. Three more years of stories would build up to the Avengers showing down with Kang the Conquerer and eventually a take on the popular Marvel storyline Secret Wars. Along the way, new heroes like the Fantastic Four and Deadpool will join the mix along with established characters like Captain Marvel, Ant-Man,and the Guardians of the…

Kang has begun discussing his dynasty.Image: Marvel StudiosWith nine Marvel movies set to release before the next Avengers film, The Kang Dynasty, there’s not much anyone can say about it. Two of the things we do know about it however are that Kang, played by Jonathan Majors, will be in it, and Shang-Chi’s Destin Daniel Cretton will be directing. And now we know those two have begun discussing their upcoming work on the film.“We just had a few chats. We spoke a very long time,” Majors said this weekend in an interview…

Screenshot: Marvel StudiosTo say the season finale of She-Hulk broke the fourth wall is an understatement; instead, it would be more accurate to say it was Hulk-Smashed into a fine powder. Your appreciation for the unbelievably meta ending may vary, but it’s worth noting that the... entity pulling the strings of season one was originally different.In “Whose Show Is This?”, Jen (Tatiana Maslany) gets so fed up with the random guest stars and mundane CG throwdown that closes most Marvel Cinematic Universe stories that she…

Directors Adil El Arbi and Bilall Fallah gave Ms. Marvel a look and energy never before seen in a Marvel TV series or movie, one that was deliberately meant to appear influenced by the young Avengers fan who also happened to be the show’s protagonist. But bringing a teen’s whimsical doodles to life apparently required the skills of an Academy Award-winning visual effects studio.The series’ opening sequence helped set the tone for the rest of the season of Ms. Marvel while firmly establishing Kamala Khan’s obsession with…
