Marvel Studios remains hard at work on Spider-Man 4, a movie we now expect to be released right between Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars in 2026.
Originally, we'd heard the idea was for the project to be a street-level adventure pitting Spider-Man and Daredevil against The Kingpin. Now, that storyline is likely being saved, with Sony getting its way with another Multiversal blockbuster set on Battleworld.
Whatever the case may be, with Mj no longer aware of who Peter Parker is, it might be time for the wall-crawler to find a new love interest. He's had many of them in the comic books and the characters listed below each have the potential to be a good fit for whatever kind of story Spider-Man 4 ends up telling.

Oftentimes, actors tend to delve so deeply into their roles to deliver the ultimate performance to viewers that their dedication is nothing short of sheerly commendable. If anything, some actors have even especially proven perfection in this field as they embrace the “darkness” of it all and stay in character even between scenes. Like Marvel’s Jon Bernthal.
Effortlessly enough, Bernthal’s name is one of the top names that come under this category, famous for his performance as the iconic Punisher in the super-verse for the tellies. But while he is one actor to be so creative while working, he isn’t the only one as three other actors from the MCU have also shown brilliance in working this way: Donald Glover, Jared Leto, and James Franco.

Actor Andrew Garfield cast doubt on rumors linking him to the upcoming Spider-Man 4 film in a recent interview. Garfield, best known for playing Spider-Man in The Amazing Spider-Man movies, spoke openly about speculation of his potential return to the role.
Promoting his new movie We Live in Time at the Toronto International Film Festival, Garfield addressed questions about reported appearances in Spider-Man 4. “I think the internet can say anything to get attention,” Garfield told IndieWire. “You might have seen stories online, but I’m afraid they could be untrue.”
Fans and insiders have theorized Spider-Man 4 may continue exploring multiple universes seen in Spider-Man: No Way Home. This could allow previous Spider-Man actors like Garfield and Tobey Maguire to reprise their roles. However, Garfield has denied involvement before in past Spider-Man projects, adding uncertainty to his recent remarks.
Before starring in No Way Home, Garfield consistently dismissed rumors of his participation.

The scene from Spider-Man: No Way Home which unites Toby McGuire, Andrew Garfield, and Tom Holland went down as one of the most iconic moments in the history of grand cinema. Ever since Garfields’s memorable appearance, and the announcement of a fourth film, fans and media outlets have been buzzing with speculation of whether the actor would once again don the iconic Spidey suit.

It’s been several years since the release of Spider-Man: No Way Home and the movie continues to be one of the most successful films of all time. The film is currently the third highest-grossing movie of all time with a domestic total of $814 million and it’s safe to say that the lead actors took home a lot of money for the film!
The movie originally earned $804 million during its initial theatrical run and then grossed another $10 million during its re-release in September 2022.
We did a little research and found out how much money Tom Holland, Andrew Garfield, and Tobey Maguire reportedly earned for their work in each of their movies.
Tobey played Spider-Man in the first three movies, Andrew played the role in two films, and Tom has now appeared in three standalone Spider-Man movies, in addition to several MCU films.

Captain America: Civil War was a landmark film within the Marvel Cinematic Universe, featuring an epic clash between Captain America and Iron Man. But amidst all these action-packed sequences and intense drama, the flashbacks took the cake.

There were flashbacks of a young Tony Stark with his deceased parents in that movie, which added a touch of nostalgia to it. It took enormous efforts and special effects to achieve this look-in-the-golden day. The head of the special effects stated that they used Robert Downey Jr.’s face from his old movies when creating his teenage face.

If we talk about the best games of 2024, then Astro Bot easily comes out among the top spots. This game is a sequel to the 2020 title, Astro’s Playroom, and overall the third game in the series. On the occasion of PlayStation’s 30th anniversary, this game has been released on September 6, 2024, on PS5.

After the release of this 3D platformer, fans have gone into an absolute frenzy. With the cute little character and aspects of many other PlayStation titles, this game has won everyone’s hearts. Interestingly, this new game shares an uncanny similarity with another Sony title of 2018. And with that, many fans have come to a similar conclusion.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has dominated the contemporary blockbuster ecosystem so thoroughly and for so long now, to the point where it's getting ridiculous, that it may sometimes be easy to forget that there's a whole section of the Hollywood Venn diagram that excludes it while still including Marvel. Although there have been a whopping 34 MCU films (so far), there have also been 39 non-mcu films throughout history based on Marvel Comics publications -- and that's not even counting the ones adapted from comics published by Marvel offshoots, such as "Kick-Ass" and the "Kingsman" and "Men in Black" franchises.
Not for nothing, a lot of those non-mcu films have been pretty darn amazing. There's an argument to be made that, between the "X-Men" and "Spider-Man" series in the 2000s, Marvel movies were shaping and defining superhero cinema as we know it long before the MCU. Even the most critically renowned Marvel movie ever is not,...

According to reports, fans might get to see them together in Avengers: Secret Wars.

One moment, award-winning chef Almut (Florence Pugh) is waking her beloved Tobias (Andrew Garfield) and asking him to sample her latest concoction, the next, it’s the middle of the night, and now-pregnant Almut is parked on the toilet while he times her contractions.
Effective love stories are composed of moments large and small. In “We Live in Time,” John Crowley has made what’s meant to be a greatest-hits version of your typical romantic comedy, serving up all the key scenes from Almut and Tobias’ relationship — meeting one another’s families, the marriage proposal, parenthood, divorce, cancer diagnoses and so on — just not in that order.
It’s a klutzy way to tell a story, but Crowley is confident that the chemistry between Pugh and Garfield is so compelling, people will want to watch his movie again and again, at which point, Almut and Tobias’ memories will have become our memories,...

For years now, fans of Spider-Man have been everlastingly debating over who is the best version of the character. Those who were around when Tobey Maguire’s films came out swear by him. He was the first, and he was the most iconic, therefore, he deserves the title. At the same time, some turn to Andrew Garfield, calling out to his acting as the character and the life he brought to the screen.

Unfortunately, in the debate between these two critically acclaimed and seasoned actors, Tom Holland’s name ends up lost in the dust. He is the newest, and his take is so much more different than what fans are used to. While some appreciate the breath of fresh air, others would rather be traditionalists when it comes to Peter Parker.

Andrew Garfield is returning to A24 this October with “We Live In Time,” another collaboration with the studio after his 2018 leading role in “Under the Silver Lake.” He reunites with his ‘Boy A’ director John Crowley nearly 20 years later to star in this romantic comedy alongside Florence Pugh. After a meet-cute car accident, the film follows a decades-long romance and Pugh’s character receiving a sobering medical diagnosis.
But of course with anything Garfield, Spider-Man inevitably comes up.
In July, Kevin Feige revealed that “we have writers who are going to be delivering us a draft relatively soon” for a fourth “Spider-Man” installment. Rumors immediately started swirling online that Andrew Garfield and Tobey Maguire may join Tom Holland in the film.

Matt and Ross Duffer struck gold when they created the supernatural drama Stranger Things for Netflix. That series is set in the 1980s, a period the Duffers are clearly enamored with. The show is coming to an end with a final season to air hopefully next year, but the brothers have other irons in the fire, including a new Netflix show called The Boroughs.
The Duffers will only be involved in a producing capacity; showrunning duties will fall to Jeffrey Addiss and Will Matthews, the guys behind the canceled-too-soon series The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance. Ben Taylor will direct several episodes including the pilot, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
But I still see the Duffers' fingerprints all over this show, which is about "a group of unlikely heroes" living in a retirement community who must "band together to stop an otherworldly threat from stealing the one thing they don't have — time.

With $3.12 billion in total theatrical box office grosses, China has now surpassed North America as the largest movie market in the world:
Hollywood studios first entered the Chinese market in 1994 with “The Fugitive” opening in theaters across Mainland China.
Popular features at the time, including "True Lies," "Titanic," and "Transformers" …
….previously dominated the Chinese box office…
…with Marvel’s "Avengers: Endgame" grossing over $592 million in 2019.
But in 2023, no American movies ranked among the 10 highest grossing in China despite highly anticipated sequels in the "Mission: Impossible," "Fast & Furious" and "Spider-Man" franchises.
As of 2024, only "Godzilla x Kong: The New Empire" has made it into the top ten.
Chinese audiences now prefer to see their own stories on the big screen, with China now the center of the largest movie studios in the world, including “Oriental Movie Metropolis” and “Hengdian World Studios”.
Hollywood studio reactions to all this ?

Leonardo DiCaprio began his acting career as a child actor in the ’80s appearing in TV commercials. He had small roles in TV shows before appearing in a major role in This Boy’s Life. Shortly after, his role in What’s Eating Gilbert Grape earned him his first Oscar nomination. Before his humble beginnings, DiCaprio had believed in a dark myth about the industry.

The Aviator actor revealed that until the age of 13, he thought Hollywood worked as a fraternity like the Freemasons and that he couldn’t possibly enter the field. He believed that he could only become an actor if he shared some sort of bloodline with the actors working in Hollywood.

Tom Holland was recently spotted on the premises of Universal Studio, which kick-started a rumor mill of a potential project with the studio. Many fans began speculating on the projects that he could collaborate with Universal, with the most popular being a Hulk vs Spider-Man movie. Universal still has distribution rights over any solo Hulk movies.

Holland’s appearance also gains significance because of Spider-Man: Homecoming producer Amy Pascal, who has since moved her dealings from Sony to Universal. It is speculated that Holland is at the studio at the request of Pascal, possibly for a completely new film under Pascal Pictures.

We’re fast approaching October which means Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 is about to be one year old. During that time, Insomniac Games have been patching/updating the game; delivering new suits, bug fixes, and the long awaited New Game Plus feature.
Meanwhile, fans have been clamoring for the studio to announce something new related to its Marvel projects. Whether it’d be Spider-Man 2 Dlc or Marvel’s Wolverine, fans want some transparency on what the Burbank studio is working on.
After the events that occurred at the tail end of 2023, Insomniac Games deserve some privacy. The team was victim to one of the biggest ransomware attacks in the games industry. Nearly two terabytes worth of information was dumped online in a malicious manner including employee data and assets for upcoming projects.

After the events that occurred at the tail end of 2023, Insomniac Games deserve some privacy. The team was victim to one of the biggest ransomware attacks in the games industry. Nearly two terabytes worth of information was dumped online in a malicious manner including employee data and assets for upcoming projects.

Ananya Panday couldn’t put down the script for “Call Me Bae” — literally. “I finished reading all eight episodes in one night because I couldn’t stop,” the Bollywood star told Variety about her new Prime Video series.
Written by Ishita Moitra, Samina Motlekar and Rohit Nair, “Call Me Bae” tells the story of Bae, a young woman who is downsized from heiress to hustler after a scandal. She learns that her most valuable assets are not her diamonds, but her street smarts and her style. Broke, but refusing to be broken, she navigates the newsrooms of Mumbai, finding beaus, sisterhood and her better self. Karan Johar, Apoorva Mehta and Somen Mishra, as executive producers for their Dharmatic Entertainment, give a glitzy pedigree to the Hindi-language series.
Directed by Collin D’Cunha, the script struck a chord with Panday from the start. “For me as an actor, the biggest telling sign...

Zendaya is one of the few actresses who we just can’t get tired of seeing on our screens. From Shake It Up to Spider-Man to Challengers, the actress has proven time and again that not only is she incredibly talented, but also timeless. A few months ago, she starred in Bulgari’s campaign where she showed off some of the brand’s jaw-dropping jewels.

A behind-the-scenes video of the shoot saw Zendaya move gracefully as she modeled a gorgeous necklace for the brand. Needless to say, people were mesmerized by her elegance as she revealed the secret of her inspiration in life.

From Marvel fandoms, dealing with the recent social media trend has been no easy task by any means. A large loyal following of the MCU films belongs to the comic and also to non-comic book fans. This leads to a situation where opinions will always clash; however, some of these trends do nothing but take it too far with their highly controversial arguments.

Tobey Maguire’s other two counterparts, Andrew Garfield and Tom Holland were contrasted in regards to their acting styles using some fan art. With regards to quality of performance, it seemed that while Garfield outdid Maguire; Holland was just mediocre at best. It resulted in insults hurled at the Uncharted 2 star, by people who were trying to show how good Garfield was.

The Netflix supernatural mystery series “The Boroughs” from creators Jeffrey Addiss and Will Matthews and executive producers the Duffer brothers has set a star-studded main cast.
Variety has learned that Alfred Molina, Geena Davis, Alfre Woodard, Denis O’Hare, Clarke Peters, and Bill Pullman will all star in the eight-episode series, which was greenlit at the streamer back in April 2023. It was also revealed that Ben Taylor will direct multiple episodes, including the first, in addition to executive producing.
The series’ logline states, “In a seemingly picturesque retirement community, a group of unlikely heroes must band together to stop an otherworldly threat from stealing the one thing they don’t have… time.”
Molina will play Sam in “The Boroughs.” Molina is known for his roles in films like “Frida,” “Boogie Nights,” and his appearances in multiple “Spider-Man” films. Davis will play Renee. She previously appeared in the Netflix series “Glow” and in films like “Beetlejuice,...

There’s really something different in Andrew Garfield’s portrayal of Peter Parker/Spider-Man in The Amazing Spider-Man. Many criticized he’s too cool to be the resident science nerd because he displayed an interest in skateboarding, and the actor had this rugged appearance in him that one wouldn’t even think he ever gets bullied.

Now, with three versions of the same character, it is not easy to choose which one accurately depicted the Marvel hero because he was brought to the big screen with an amalgamation of personalities, quirks, and the likes that are true to the actor. Garfield, in this case, made his own choice of incorporating some traits that weren’t found in Tom Holland’s or Tobey Maguire’s Spider-Man.

Tom Hardy is all set with the final film in his Venom trilogy, which will hit theatres on October 25 this year. Being the last installment, fans naturally have a ton of expectations from the film. Eddie and Venom are on the run, hunted by their respective worlds. Venom: The Last Dance is expected to have multiple symbiotes including Toxin, the offspring of Carnage.

A recently released international trailer for the film revealed another symbiote in its full glory and fans are fully suspecting it to be none other than the minor antagonist, Lasher. While there is no confirmation yet, fans have a lot to say about the cameo in the trailer and they are not happy, to say the least.

Kevin Feige’s Marvel Cinematic Universe seems to be an unlucky place for WWE stars. Damian Priest joined Becky Lynch and Seth Rollins on the list of pro-wrestlers who were cut out from a Marvel role. Priest revealed that he almost landed a role in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever but was eventually not allowed to play the character.

Sam Raimi directed the original Spider-Man trilogy and Marc Webb later stepped in to helm The Amazing Spider-Man movies. When it came time for Marvel Studios to reboot the character, Jon Watts was entrusted with taking charge of the character's MCU adventures.
He did a spectacular job across Spider-Man: Homecoming, Spider-Man: Far From Home, and Spider-Man: No Way Home, but ultimately decided to move on from Peter Parker after completing the trilogy. Now, Spider-Man 4 needs a new director and rumours continue to swirl about who will take the helm.
Depending on who you believe, the movie - which is expected to be released in 2026 between Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars - is either going to be a street-level story featuring Daredevil and The Kingpin or another Multiversal team-up.
In this feature, we're singling out the filmmakers who would be a good fit for either approach to Spider-Man 4.

Although the recently released Deadpool & Wolverine seems to have given the Marvel Cinematic Universe the perfect boost it needed to get back on fans’ good side, there are still a lot of unanswered questions that need to be resolved. And while the frozen half-peaking head and hand of Tiamut from Eternals was one thing, it isn’t the only one Kevin Feige has yet to address.

For instance, there’s a very interesting aspect of Tom Holland’s debut MCU movie, Spider-Man: Homecoming, that the studios are yet to explain and continue the storyline of. The scene in talk is the end credits scene which featured a rather uncanny cameo of someone who confronts Michael Keaton’s Vulture as yet another nemesis of the fan-favorite web-slinger: Scorpion.

Marvel Studios staged one heck of a comeback earlier this year with Deadpool and Wolverine's summer release. The film has already broken box office records in a sensational performance that has seen it gross $1.2. billion and counting. It's a first for R-rated movies, and the Marvel Cinematic Universe's highest-grossing movie since 2021's Spider-Man: No Way Home, which ended up making $1.9 billion.
With that in mind, it's easy to see why expectations are so high for that movie's sequel, too. Given that No Way Home was the second-consecutive Spider-Man to surpass $1 billion and ultimately became the 6th highest-grossing movie of all time (at the time of its release), you can imagine that both studios, Sony and Marvel, are eager to get to work on Spider-Man 4.
The movie has been at the center of a number of rumors in recent months, both in relation to its plot and its director.

Sony made a name for itself during the PS4 generation with an amazing comeback, after the previous generation was mostly dominated by the Xbox 360. The biggest reason for the company dominating the previous generation was the high quality, narrative-driven, single-player games.
This era was all about great storytelling, deep characters, and beautiful worlds. First-party games like Uncharted 4, Horizon Zero Dawn, Ghost of Tsushima, God of War, The Last of Us Part II, and Spider-Man were extremely massive hits, and they became rather iconic pretty quickly and set a gold standard for the industry.
After Concord, Sony’s Strategy Needs a Rethink

Jon Watts Explains Why He is Not Returning to Direct Spider-Man 4 - Main Image
Jon Watts recently opened up about his decision to not return to direct the highly-anticipated Marvel/Sony's Spider-Man 4.

Marvel Studios and Sony are still looking for a new filmmaker who will take over the project as the development continues and fans are anticipating the details on what they can expect for Spider-Man's next rodeo in the MCU.

Let’s address the giant (or not-so-giant) elephant in the room—Zendaya and Tom Holland’s height difference. Is it really a towering issue or just a molehill being made into a mountain? The actress, standing tall at 5’10”, and her boyfriend, a statuesque 5’8″, have been lighting up both the screen and social media timelines as Tinseltown’s beloved couple.

Yet, why are we so fixated on their height difference? This topic has reached dizzying heights (pun intended), with society seemingly obsessed with the idea that men must always be taller than their female counterparts. Earlier, Zendaya revealed that when they first met for their Spider-Man auditions, she had her own worries about the height difference.
It’s like arguing about the best kind of pizza toppings—it just doesn’t make sense.

Wolfs, the Apfel Original crime thriller that re-pairs longtime collaborators George Clooney and Brad Pitt, had its world premiere at the Venice Film Festival Sept. 1.
Set for a limited theatrical release Sept. 20, before hitting the streamer the following week, it follows Clooney as a professional fixer hired to cover up a high-profile crime. But when a second fixer (Pitt) arrives, the two “lone wolves” are forced to work together as their night spirals out of control in unexpected ways.
The film, which marks the veteran actors’ more than 20-year-long partnership, premiered out of competition, as the official screening was greeted with a five-minute, 35-second ovation inside the Sala Grande Sunday. In attendance at the red carpet in addition to the two stars were cast members Amy Ryan (alongside her husband and daughter) and Austin Abrams. Richard Gere and Cate Blanchett (who stars in fellow Apple TV+ release Disclaimer) also hit the carpet.

Brad Pitt and George Clooney hugged and danced at the Venice Film Festival on Sunday night as the two megastars’ latest film, “Wolfs,” received a polite four-minute standing ovation.
The premiere itself was delayed by more than 30 minutes as fans crowded into Venice’s Sala Grande in an attempt to catch a glimpse at Pitt and Clooney. When the duo finally arrived inside, the sound — and general vibe — in the theater could only be described as carnal. Both actors took to different sides of the carpet, signing autographs and taking selfies, before being whisked away to their seats by security.
As the two stars entered the theater, they greeted the eager crowd with a booming “Buonasera!,” prompting some fans to shout back in hopes of being noticed. Even as the film began rolling, the chaos continued, with those without tickets scrambling to find any empty seats. Some were ejected during...

Both actors took to different sides of the carpet, signing autographs and taking selfies, before being whisked away to their seats by security.
As the two stars entered the theater, they greeted the eager crowd with a booming “Buonasera!,” prompting some fans to shout back in hopes of being noticed. Even as the film began rolling, the chaos continued, with those without tickets scrambling to find any empty seats. Some were ejected during...

Two of Hollywood’s biggest stars, George Clooney and Brad Pitt have teamed up to star in an upcoming action comedy titled, Wolfs. The actors would be portraying professional fixers hired to cover up a major crime, forcing the two lone wolves to work together. Several news outlets have started releasing rumors about the new movie, but one statement caused the actor himself to respond.
The movie premiered out of competition at the Venice Film Festival, and Clooney utilized the platform to address one viral rumor about the film. Referring to the absurd claim of the lead actors receiving $35 million each as salary, the Insomnia actor stated it was exaggerated. He claimed their actual pay was way less, and the rumor could cause serious harm to show business.

Jon Watts rediscovers his filmmaking joie de vivre with the classic comic thriller “Wolfs,” starring George Clooney and Brad Pitt as a pair of lone-working fixers who find themselves cleaning up the same mess when hired for the same job. Seeing this “Ocean’s Eleven” duo of matinee idols back up on the silver screen together means you’re in sure hands from the start — the witty repartee flowing, the smug suave bandying about, and all in a lean, clean, cooly running-timed comedy that places Jack (Clooney) and Nick (Pitt) into their own sort of “After Hours” late night in New York. That’s because the job gets a lot messier than expected when a guy simply dubbed in the credits as “kid” turns out not to be as dead as the district attorney (Amy Ryan) who brought him up to her hotel room thought. “Wolfs” is slickly directed with a classy touch by Watts,...

"It's gonna be a long night," Brad Pitt's unnamed "cleaner" wearily observes when things officially go from bad to worse early on in "Wolfs." It's only the first of the film's many winking, self-reverential story beats, throwing back to one of the great cinematic rites of passage for any filmmaker looking to make their own mark on crime thrillers. John Carpenter's "Assault on Precinct 13," Sidney Lumet's "Dog Day Afternoon," and especially Martin Scorsese's "After Hours" perfected the art of throwing every possible obstacle they could think of at their heroes, putting them through the wringer over the course of a single endless day or night. "Wolfs" is writer/director Jon Watts' almost revisionist response to those classics of decades past, with the added bonus of reuniting movie stars Pitt and George Clooney for the first time since the "Ocean's" trilogy and "Burn After Reading."

Jon Watts only had two indie films under his name before directing the big-budget Spider-Man flicks for the MCU. He gave one of the most significant post-Endgame MCU releases with Spider-Man: No Way Home. The Tom Holland film almost collected $2 billion worldwide. But, despite such success, the director denied leading Spider-Man 4 due to a major creative reason.

After the success of No Way Home, Jon Watts was eyed to helm Spider-Man 4 as well as The Fantastic Four. But soon, the director announced his exit from both projects and asserted that he wanted to do something on his own, outside Marvel. As a result, Watts went on to make the film, Wolfs for Apple TV+.

George Clooney has commented for the first time on his New York Times op-ed asking Joe Biden to drop out of the presidential race.
“I’ve actually never had to answer that question so I suppose I will do it here,” Clooney said when asked about it at the Venice press conference for his new film “Wolfs.”
“The person who should be applauded is the president, who has done the most selfless thing a president has done since George Washington,” he said, adding: “What should be remembered is the selfless act of someone who, it’s very hard to let go of power — we know that, we’ve seen it all over the world — and for someone to say I think there’s a better path forward, all the credit goes to him.

Thanks to his work on Spider-Man’s ‘Home’ trilogy, Jon Watts became a key figure in the MCU, credited with some of the franchise’s highest-grossing and most successful films. Watts infused the Spider-Man movies with a youthful, high school-focused tone, setting them apart from other superhero films.
This approach resonated strongly with both critics and audiences. In No Way Home, he successfully navigated the challenge of integrating Spider-Man into the Multiverse, delivering an exceptional and well-received film.
Watts was initially approached to direct Fantastic Four: First Steps but ultimately chose to step away not only from that project but also from the Spider-Man franchise. As Spider-Man 4 searches for a new director, Watts is focusing on his upcoming film, Wolfs, which stars Brad Pitt and George Clooney as rival “fixers.”
In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Watts shared why he left the MCU and how Wolfs aligns better with his creative vision.

Largely due to the Spider-Man’s ‘Home’ trilogy, Jon Watts was one of the most important directors in the MCU, being credited for some of the highest-grossing and successful movies in the franchise.
Watts brought a youthful, high school-centric tone to the ‘Spider-Man’ films, which differentiated them from other superhero movies. This approach paid off well with both critics and audiences. With ‘No Way Home’ he had a gargantuan task of having Spidey join the Multiverse and thrive in it, and boy did he do it well.
Now Watts was also approached to handle the upcoming ‘Fantastic Four: First Steps’ but the director eventually decided to walk away not only from ‘Fantastic Four’ but from ‘Spider-Man’ franchise as well. The upcoming ‘Spider-Man 4’ is currently looking for a director while Jon Watts is focusing on his upcoming movie ‘Wolfs’ a story about two “fixers” starring Brad Pitt and George Clooney.

11. Spider-Man (1977)
The 1977 made-for-tv Spider-Man movie is one that many of you might not have seen or even heard of. While it was a respectable effort for its time, it ultimately fell short in capturing the essence of the character. Given that it was the late 1970s and superhero films were not yet a major focus,...

Spider-Man: No Way Home Almost Featured an Easter Egg from 2003 Daredevil Movie - Main Image
Spider-Man: No Way Home almost featured an easter egg to the maligned 2003 Ben Affleck-led Daredevil movie.
The MCU film notably brought back several actors from Marvel's past including Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield's respective versions of Spider-Man and the villains in their movies.
Another Marvel star who made a major comeback in the film is Charlie Cox's Matt Murdock, who was last seen in the original Daredevil series on Netflix and is making his first official MCU appearance.

Horror Afraid leads the new titles at the UK and Ireland box office this weekend, launching in 450 locations for Sony.
Directed by Chris Weitz, Afraid stars John Cho and Katherine Waterston as devoted parents who get selected to try a new smart home AI device. The device quickly becomes overprotective of the family and begins interfering in their lives.
It is the latest feature from horror juggernaut Blumhouse, this year’s titles of which include Imaginary (£2m) and Night Swim (£1.4m). The film will have stiff competition from Disney’s fellow horror Alien: Romulus which was up to £8.8m at the end of last weekend.

After five appearances in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Marisa Tomei‘s favorite part of the superhero franchise was actually a behind-the-scenes love story.
The Academy Award winner had fond memories of watching her Spider-Man co-stars Tom Holland and Zendaya “fall in love” while making the movies as she appeared on a recent Fan Expo 2024 panel in Toronto.
“I think some of the favorite things were really just watching Tom and Zendaya grow up and watching them fall in love… and seeing their phenomenal talent,” said Tomei, according to Entertainment Weekly. “Just being, like, blown away from the the get-go… I mean, I’m blown away.”
She starred opposite Holland’s Peter Parker (aka Spider-Man) as Aunt May Parker in Captain America: Civil War (2016), Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017), Avengers: Endgame (2019), Spider-Man: Far From Home (2019) and Spider-Man: No Way Home (2021).

In a bit of an odd turn of events, a largely forgotten sports drama has been climbing the charts on Netflix as of late. 2014's "23 Blast," which is based on the true story of a remarkable football player named Travis Freeman, has made its way into the Netflix top 10 movie charts, right alongside recent hits such as "The Super Mario Bros. Movie" and "Trolls Band Together." So, why now? How is it that this decade-old football movie is finding an audience on the world's largest streaming service when so many other movies are available for one to stream? It's a fascinating example of the unpredictable nature of the streaming world we now live in.
"23 Blast" is, as of this writing, sitting firmly in the 10th spot on Netflix's charts (via FlixPatrol). It centers on a high school football star who is suddenly stricken with irreversible total blindness. He...

Ryan Reynolds is celebrating the stunt team on Deadpool & Wolverine and making a case for the Oscars to award their work.
In a new social media post, Reynolds honored the performers who stepped in for actors to make the complex action scenes happen and hoped that their work would be more widely recognized.
“Stunt work doesn’t have a category at The Oscars and I hope that’ll change someday. So many films have smashed it this year,” Reynolds shared on X, the microblogging platform formerly known as Twitter. “Buster Keaton, Harold Lloyd and Chaplin were stunt performers as well as filmmakers. Telling stories with their entire bodies.”
He continued, “This [Deadpool & Wolverine] stunt team over-delivered. A lot of them are friends I’ve worked with for years and I’ll spend the rest of my days doodling their names in my Heidi Stationary, dotting all the ‘i’s’ with little hearts.
