The fact that it reveals one of the four versions of Spider-Man we'll see in the game? Well, that's just an extra dose of awesome.

What Stan Lee Thinks Of Donald Glover's 'Spider-Man' Casting Campaign

Posted 6/9/10 3:01 pm EST by in Dark Horse, Hot Stuff, Images, Marvel, News, Video


As anyone who follows me on Twitter learned yesterday, I was a bit shocked to receive an unexpected phone call this week from the great Stan Lee, legendary co-creator of Spider-Man, The X-Men and countless other iconic characters.

But what could Stan "The Man" Lee want to talk to me about? Well, it turns out he's well aware of the big debate surrounding one of his most popular creations, Spider-Man, and wanted to offer his thoughts on "Community" actor Donald Glover's campaign to be cast as the new Peter Parker in Sony's reboot of the film franchise.

Just in case you haven't been following along at home, the issue centers around the question of whether Glover -- or any other African-American actor, for that matter -- should be considered for the role of Peter Parker. So, who better to speak to the issue than the co-creator of Spider-Man himself?

"He's a great actor. I've seen him, and he's terrific," Lee said of Glover. Read More...

Late last week, reports surfaced that "Band of Brothers" star Neal McDonough would return to his World War II roots as Dum Dum Dugan in "The First Avenger: Captain America." We're happy to report that the casting has been confirmed by a very reliable source: none other than McDonough himself.

"I'm so excited — I'm playing Dum Dum Dugan," the actor revealed at the MTV Movie Awards on Sunday. "It's going to be a blast with Chris [Evans], Sam Jackson, Tommy Lee Jones and everyone else. It's going to be fantastic. We're going to tear it up!"

McDonough is already growing Dugan's trademark mustache and plans to wear the character's signature bowler hat. He also said that the Howling Commandos are a part of "Captain America," though the squad's name could change between now and shooting. Read More...

Posted 6/7/10 5:31 pm EST by in Video


If you're following along at home, you know that we brought you some new footage from "The Last Airbender" this weekend during the MTV Movie Awards.

We know fans of the original Nickelodeon cartoon series are eagerly anticipating M. Night Shyamalan's big-screen adaptation, so when we had a chance to chat backstage with actor Jackson Rathbone (who plays teenage warrior Sokka in the film), we made sure to get some comments from him about where the project stands.

"I've seen 'The Last Airbender' in 2-D," Rathbone told MTV News. "I haven't seen it in 3-D yet. I'm really excited, though, [because] the movie looks amazing just with the old-school cinema version."

"I'm excited to see how it looks once it's all three-dimensionalized," he laughed.

"The Last Airbender" hits theaters July 2, 2010. Let us know what you think in the comment section or on Twitter!
