Black Widow Trailer Arrives

It’s been 11 years since Scarlett Johansson’s Natasha Romanoff was introduced to the Marvel Cinematic Universe in Iron Man 3. After fans demanded a solo movie for YEARS, the day is actually on the horizon. I’m in shock. I never thought it would happen. Things looked bleak after the events of Endgame but Marvel decided to throw us a bone. 

Black Widow will take place before the events of Endgame as Natasha reunites with Yelena (Florence Pugh), a sister-figure from the past. They will return to Russia to confront the past and embark on a mission. It’s giving me a little Captain America: The Winter Soldier vibe with the espionage feel of the trailer. Can’t complain about that because it’s one of the MCU’s best movies! Black Widow also Stars Rachel Weisz and David Harbor. The only thing I’m skeptical about here is David Harbor’s character, Alexei. He looks a little cartoony for the subject material. Who knows, he may surprise me in the movie though! 

Black Widow will hit theaters on May 1, 2020. You can watch the trailer right here! 

The Little Mermaid Casts Prince Eric

There’s been a ton of buzz surrounding the upcoming The Little Mermaid live-action remake. It’s one of Disney’s most iconic animated films, so who will play the beloved characters? This summer, singer Halle Bailey was cast in the title role of Ariel. It was also announced that Awkwafina would voice Scuttle, and Jacob Tremblay would be the voice of Flounder. One major question remained. Who would be Prince Eric? Rumors swirled that singer Harry Styles landed the role. That proved to be false when he said no to the project.
It has just been confirmed that actor Jonah Hauer-King will play Prince Eric. But who is he? King has previously appeared in A Dog’s Way Home and the BBC’s Little Women mini-series as Laurie. One thing’s for sure, King has some major shoes to fill considering Prince Eric is one of Disney’s dreamiest princes. I’m excited to see him take on the role. What do you think of the casting choice for Prince Eric? Are you excited for the live-action Little Mermaid?

Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker Final Trailer Debuts

Get ready, Star Wars fans! The end of the Skywalker saga is just two months away from release. The final trailer for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker debuted during Monday Night Football and it looks pretty epic if I do say so myself. The trailer gives the audience a peek at scenes that include a battle on space horses, a Rey and Kylo Ren lightsaber battle, and a ton of rain. This looks like a very rain-heavy chapter in the Star Wars series. Hopefully, we finally find out who Rey’s parents are because I am not satisfied with the answer we got in The Last Jedi! I’m very interested to see how they take her relationship with Kylo Ren in this movie after their “force bond” in the last movie. And how does Palpatine factor into all this? I thought he was dead!

The Rise of Skywalker is directed by JJ Abrams and stars Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, Oscar Isaac, John Boyega, Carrie Fisher, and Billie D. Williams. It will be in theaters on December 20th. You can watch the trailer here.

Marriage Story Trailer Promises Great Acting and Emotional Storyline

Netflix is gearing up for awards season with several releases on the horizon including The King, The Irishman, and the Noah Baumbach directed Marriage Story. The film starring Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver follows a couple as their marriage begins to disintegrate and they contemplate getting a divorce. There has been plenty of Oscar buzz surrounding both Scarlett Johansson and Adam Driver for their performances in the film. Joining the two in the supporting cast is Laura Dern, Alan Alda, and Ray Liotta. So there’s a lot of talent involved in this potential Oscar contender.
From just the trailers, it looks like this is gonna be quite emotional. Both actors are showing some impressive acting skills and the film is giving me a Kramer vs. Kramer vibe. Imagine what the movie has in store! Marriage Story will be in select theaters on November 6th and on Netflix on December 6th.
Take a look at the latest trailer that has just been released!

Jonah Hill Being Considered As Villain In New Batman

Matt Reeves new Batman film may not hit theaters until 2021, but it has already managed to make quite a stir amid all of its casting choices. First, Robert Pattinson was announced as the Caped Crusader. Now, Deadline just broke the news that Jonah Hill is in talks to join the cast as the villain of the project. It’s unclear who Hill will be playing as the opposing force to Pattinson’s Batman. However, there are several rumors floating around. One of the most prominent rumors is that he will be playing The Penguin. The Hollywood Reporter says that the role hasn’t been decided, but the Penguin has been discussed. Collider reports that he is in negotiations to play The Riddler. What does all of this confusing information mean? It means we have no idea what role Jonah Hill will be playing in the new Batman movie. It could be The Penguin. It could be The Riddler. Maybe it’s a totally different villain and all of this info is just here to throw everyone off the trail! We’ll find out when the movie starts filming next summer. What villain do you want to see in the new Batman movie?

Timothée Chalamet as King Henry V in New Trailer

Timothée Chalamet is on a roll. After his impressive success with Call Me Be Your Name, Lady Bird, and Beautiful Boy, he has quite a cinematic line up set for this fall including Greta Gerwig’s Little Women. Before that hits theaters, he stars in The King. Netflix has just released the first trailer for the film starring Chalamet as King Henry V. The film will focus on Henry’s younger years as he goes from a prince to a reluctant king and must navigate the chaotic royal world that his father left behind. Chalamet’s co-stars include Joel Edgerton, Robert Pattinson, Lily Rose Depp, Sean Harris, and Ben Mendelsohn. The film was directed by David Michôd and the screenplay was written by Michôd and Joel Edgerton. It will premiere at the Venice Film Festival on September 2nd and stream on Netflix November 1st.

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker...Could Rey Turn to the Dark Side?

A brand new trailer for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker premiered at the Disney D23 expo this weekend. The trailer mainly consists of footage from previous Star Wars films hyping up The Rise of Skywalker as an epic conclusion to the current trilogy. There isn’t much new footage from the highly anticipated film, but a shocking revelation at the end of the trailer shows Rey in a hooded cloak with a red lightsaber. Could she be turning to the dark side? I think the clip may be some kind of dramatic trick to get everyone to see the movie. Maybe she’s a clone or imaginary. Surely, she can’t be turning evil, right? We’ll all find out on December 20th. Watch the trailer here!

Spider-Man May Not Be Part of Marvel Universe Going Forward

It’s a sad day for Spider-Man fans. After the cliffhanger ending in Spider-Man: Far From Home, Sony announced it would no longer share rights of Spider-Man with Marvel Studios. This means Peter is no longer an Avenger and there will be no more Marvel character appearances in upcoming movies. Why did this happen? Apparently, Disney wanted an even percent of upcoming Spider-Man film’s profit, instead of the previously agreed upon 5%. The Sony/Disney negotiations didn’t go according to plan, because Sony is taking Spidey back. Tom Holland is still signed to star in 2 more films, regardless of the contract dispute. Maybe the companies can still come to an agreement in the future. With a franchise this successful, something tells me this won’t be the last we see of Peter Parker in the MCU. 

Last Christmas Will Debut in November

The first signs of the Christmas season are here with an all new trailer for Last Christmas. It’s a film written by Emma Thompson and directed by Paul Feig. It stars Emilia Clarke, Henry Goulding, and Michelle Yeouh (a mother and son Crazy Rich Asians reunion!). Last Christmas is about a depressed woman named Kate working as Santa’s elf in a department store. She keeps bumping into the same man, Tom, who may help her find happiness in the holiday season. While it sounds like the makings of the perfect holiday rom-com, many on the internet think it has a major plot twist because of a few clues in the trailer. Kate was severely ill in the past (on the verge of death) and no other characters are interacting with Tom. A few theories floating around include Tom is an angel helping Kate love life again. Another is that he is the ghost of her heart donor that only she can see (taking the lyrics “Last Christmas, I gave you my heart” to a very literal level.) I’m hoping there’s no twist to this movie and there can be a nice holiday romance this year. We’ll find out on November 8th when Last Christmas makes its way to theaters. Watch the trailer here and see what you think!

Little Women Trailer Released

This Christmas, Greta Gerwig’s highly anticipated adaption of Little Women will be released to theaters just in time for the holiday! The director’s follow up to Lady Bird is a remake of the beloved Louisa May Alcott novel. It stars Saoirse Ronan, Meryl Streep, Laura Dern, Timothee Chalamet, Emma Watson, and Florence Pugh. Little Women will be in theaters on December 25th, so mark those calendars. With this much talent involved, I know I’ll be seeing it! Take a look at the first trailer right here
