'Amazing Spider-Man 2': Say Hello To Paul Giamatti As The Rhino

Posted 5/13/13 11:28 am EST by Splash Page Team in Marvel, News, Twitter Report

by Brett White

Move over Jamie Foxx, there's a new Spider-Man bad guy on set. But also, seriously, move over, because he's driving an 18-wheeler and doesn't seem all that cautious.

"Amazing Spider-Man 2" director Marc Webb tweeted a picture of Paul Giamatti as Aleksei Sytsevich over the weekend. Sytsevich is better known as the Rhino, but we're still in the dark about what exactly Giamatti's Rhino suit will look like. But for now we have a Twitter picture as well as a few other shots of the villain in action, which you can check out below.

It may only be 30 seconds long, but the trailer for ABC's "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." manages to cram in a lot of tantalizing details. Any fears fans might have had about the series not being able to match Marvel's big screen fare in terms of scale, special effects and action have surely been smashed in the face with a blender. This trailer brings the goods, and one possibly big reveal.

Here are 9 must-see moments from the "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." trailer.

» S.H.I.E.L.D. adds a whole new level of gravitas to the phrase "put a bird on it."

» Here's J. August Richards making his first of two appearances in the trailer. He's seen leaping from the roof of a building and landing with quite an impact here. Hmmm... but who could he be playing?

'Marvel's Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.' TV Spot Debuts

Posted 5/13/13 9:32 am EST by Splash Page Team in Hot Stuff, Marvel, News, TV, Video

by Brett White

ABC is wasting no time getting the word out about "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." After announcing that the pilot was picked up on Friday, word quickly spread that footage from the show would premiere during the season finale of ABC's genre-drama "Once Upon a Time" on Sunday night. So in a 72 hour span, we went from not being sure Marvel Comics' first live-action TV show in years would even be picked up to being in the middle of a promotional hurricane. I'm fine with that.

The 30 second teaser, which can be viewed in all its glory below, does not skimp on the series' main selling points. Joss Whedon namecheck? Done. Shots of Hulk, Thor, Iron Man and Captain America? Got it. Big, unmistakable connection to the film that everyone saw last year, "Marvel's the Avengers"? Yep. And loads of Agent Phil Coulson? You bet. If you some how remained clueless about the S.H.I.E.L.D. show, now you know. And you are excited.

Check out the full spot and the first cast photo below.

'Avengers 2' Rumor: Marvel Eyeing Saoirse Ronan For Scarlet Witch?

Posted 5/10/13 11:45 am EST by Splash Page Team in Marvel, Rumor

Saoirse Ronan Scarlet Witch

by Brett White

It's worth a mention up top that this seems to be the rumoriest of rumors, but it's about the Avengers and, well, that movie is so highly anticipated that even rumors are worth getting excited about at this point.

Super Hero Hype has heard from an unnamed source that Marvel has started looking for actors to play new additons Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver in "The Avengers 2." Irish actress Saoirse Ronan is said to be the prototypical actress for Scarlet Witch, while Quicksilver's only qualifiers are "euro" and "edgy." Both Joss Whedon and Kevin Feige confirmed the duo's involvement in the sequel, even if the latter tempered expectations by stating that the script is still in the very early stages. But if this rumor has any truth to it, it looks like Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver have a pretty good shot of assembling in 2015.

ABC Picks Up 'Marvel's Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.,' 7-Second Teaser Emerges

As if there was ever any doubt, ABC has ordered "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." to series. ABC ordered a pilot for the series back in August, thus beginning the long journey to this moment, filled with casting, resurrection and speculation.

In addition to getting picked up, a seven second teaser has emerged and can be viewed here (for now at least; it's getting taken off of video hosting sites left and right). The teaser is all kinds of awesome, if only because it shows found footage of what could be/most definitely is a blurry, rampaging Hulk. With the series starring a bunch of totally new characters, fans were starting to wonder if there'd be any room for existing Marvel heroes. This teaser proves that, yep, they're in there too.

'X-Men: Days Of Future Past': Professor X Joins Supertramp

Posted 5/9/13 5:37 pm EST by Splash Page Team in Marvel, News, Photos, Twitter Report

by Brett White

I thought that the future X-Men's wardrobe was shocking? I hadn't seen anything yet. Bryan Singer has tweeted the first look at one of the 1973 X-Men and boy is it 1973. Like Foghat/Eagles/Supertramp level 1973. This movie is not messing around when it comes to period authenticity.

James McAvoy is shown hanging out on set, sitting in what we can only assume is Patrick Stewart's Professor X wheelchair, if only because it's so modern looking. The whole package is just beyond belief. The hair, the beard, the shirt and pants. Forget whatever Xavier said in "X-Men: First Class," this wardrobe is a groovy mutation.

Check out the full tweet and picture below. Warning: Professor X might look a lot like your dad did in those pictures he's embarrassed about.

'Uncanny X-Force' Comes To Life In Los Angeles

Posted 5/9/13 5:02 pm EST by MTV News Team in Marvel, Video

FROM MTV GEEK

Sure Fox may be preoccupied with two high-profile X-Men films (this year's "The Wolverine" and 2014's "X-Men: Days of Future Past"), but this video makes a strong case for a big screen adaptation of "Uncanny X-Force." The Marvel Comics series by writer Sam Humphries and artist Ron Garney has taken an unlikely quartet of mutants - Storm, Psylocke, Puck and Spiral - and thrown them into Los Angeles. And much like how last year's "Marvel's the Avengers" painstakingly recreated the area around Manhattan's iconic Grand Central Station, writer Sam Humphries takes MTV Geek on a tour of locations rendered faithfully by artist Ron Garney in the comic's first four issues.

Check out the video below or over at MTV Geek, and imagine Bishop throwing down with X-Force in the very locations they're walking through. It's incredibly rad.

Elektra Rights Have Possibly Returned To Marvel

Posted 5/9/13 3:30 pm EST by Terri Schwartz in Marvel, News

Elektra

The "Daredevil" film rights have returned to Marvel, but what about Elektra? Fans have worried about the fate of the favorite Marvel Comics character ever since the Daredevil deal went through, and now Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige has come forward to set the record straight...sorta.

"Elektra is part of the Daredevil contract, I believe," he told Collider. "I believe, don't quote me on that, I'd have to check with legal and it would take a long time and I'd have to get on the phone with business affairs, but I think she's included under the Daredevil rights agreement."

'Big Hero Six' Becomes Disney's First Animated Marvel Movie

Posted 5/9/13 3:00 pm EST by Splash Page Team in Marvel, News

Big Hero Six

by Brett White

When Disney bought Marvel Entertainment way back in 2009, a lot of comic book fans got excited at the prospect of Disney's animation might being matched up with Marvel's rich library of characters. It seemed like a match made in heaven, and now there's a feature film to show for it. It's just that... it's not one anyone saw coming. Literally, anyone. Find me the Marvel fan who pegged this as the obvious first choice for a Disney/Marvel animated collaboration, and I'll show you a Marvel fan who you should take stock tips from.

"Big Hero Six" will be the first Disney animated feature film to be based on a Marvel Comics property. That's right, "Big Hero Six." The CG-animated film will follow young Hiro Hamada and his robot BayMax as they join a superhero team in the fictional city of San Fransokyo.

You can check out some first look footage and concept art below, along with the answer to the question, "Big Hero Six...?"
