1939 erschien die erste Ausgabe der Marvel Comics, heute liegt die Aufmerksamkeit vor allem auf den Filmen und Serien. Davon zeugt auch ein diesbezüglich fokussierter Clip, in dem Marvel auf seine Geschichte zurückblickt – und auch (sehr) kurze Blicke auf drei kommende Projekte erhaschen lässt.
Kommt am 12. Februar: „Captain America: Brave New World“ (Credit: © 2024 Marvel)
Spider-Man? Captain America? Oder doch eher der Hulk? Nein, weit gefehlt. Es war tatsächlich ein Held aus den Reihen der „Fantastic Four“, der auf dem Cover der 1939 erschienenen, ersten Ausgabe der „Marvel Comics“ (der Verlag hieß damals noch „Timely Comics“) prangte. Ein Held, der (Spoilerwarnung!) auch in „Deadpool & Wolverine“ zu zumindest kurzen „Ehren“ kommt: Die Menschliche Fackel alias Johnny Storm. Ebenfalls zu den ersten Protagonisten zählte der Sub-Mariner, der seinen großen Auftritt in „Black Panther: Wakanda Forever“ hatte.

We’re getting a new cast for the Fantastic Four reboot, but fans cannot deny that the original actors from the 2005 film were iconic. In fact, that was the first time fans would have wondered something about Ben Grimm and Reed Richards.

‘Fantastic Four: First Steps’ is one of the most highly anticipated releases in the MCU. Scheduled for release on July 25, 2025, the film is currently being shot at Pinewood Studios in London.
The movie will explore an alternate reality and is set to introduce the Fantastic Four along with several of their most iconic villains to the cinematic universe.
The main cast for ‘Fantastic Four: First Steps’ has been confirmed for some time: Pedro Pascal will portray Mr. Fantastic, with Vanessa Kirby as Sue Storm. Joseph Quinn will take on the role of Johnny Storm, aka the Human Torch, while Ebon Moss-Bachrach will play Ben Grimm, aka the Thing.
The adaptation of the Thing has been highly anticipated due to the challenges of bringing his unique appearance to life. Overusing prosthetics and makeup could look cheap, while relying solely on CGI could become both costly and problematic.

A video from the set of The Fantastic Four: First Steps has given us our first look at The Thing. Based on the video, the character looks pretty damn close to The Thing we know and love, heavy brow and all. It would also appear that there’s actually someone inside the suit. Check out the set video below!

Michael Chiklis wore a practical suit as The Thing in Fantastic Four and Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, while Jamie Bell went the mo-cap route for a digital Thing in the 2015 reboot. Ebon Moss-Bachrach, who will be playing Ben Grimm aka The Thing in the new movie, has previously confirmed that this new incarnation of the character will be done through motion capture.

Are our eyes deceiving us, or are fans of the Fantastic Four finally about to have their patience rewarded? For as much as the Marvel Cinematic Universe has brought some of the absolute nerdiest and most heightened concepts to life in live-action, comic book readers of certain other Marvel properties have had to make like that Squidward meme and watch helplessly through a window while others have enjoyed seeing their childhood dreams come true. For every Captain America or Doctor Strange stan that has seen their favorite C-list (or even D-list) superheroes turn into household names over the last 15 years, others haven't quite been so fortunate. That appears set to change in a big way, as Kevin Feige's highly-anticipated take on the First Family is already showing why it's at the top of everyone's wish list.

In 2005's Fantastic Four and its sequel, 2007's Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, actor Michael Chiklis donned a practical costume to bring The Thing to life on screen.
It worked for the time, but in Josh Trank's 2015 reboot, Jamie Bell's take on the character was realised with visual effects. Now, we have a first look at The Fantastic Four: First Steps' Ever-Lovin' Blue-Eyed Thing!
Shockingly, he too appears to be practical; as of now, we don't know whether there's an actor - presumably Ebon Moss-Bachrach - in the suit or whether this is simply a stand-in meant to serve as a reference for actors and visual effects artists. Based on the few seconds of footage we have, it does look like someone's in there.
This being a stand-in perhaps makes the most sense, though a practical Thing could suit the Marvel Studios reboot's 1960s aesthetic.

Robert Downey Jr.’s casting as Doctor Doom in the MCU created quite a stir among Marvel fans. The actor was at the foundation of the franchise and helped establish it with the 2008 hit Iron Man. The character of Tony Stark was a fan favorite and he made his departure after his death in Avengers: Endgame.
Downey Jr.’s return as Doctor Doom has sparked multiple conversations about the dire state of the MCU and the impact of it on Tony Stark’s legacy. However, Downey Jr.’s reported $100 million salary for the role has also sparked controversy as fans compare it to Oscar-nominee Angela Bassett’s rumored $350K salary for Black Panther 2.

Ryan Reynolds is getting Marvel fans all worked up thanks to a deleted scene from “Deadpool & Wolverine” that he debuted on social media. The scene confirms that Channing Tatum’s Gambit not only survived the battle in the Void but also has a way out of the wasteland as an inter-dimensional portal can be seen opening up in the reflection of Gambit’s eyes.
These portals are what Deadpool calls “Marvel spark circles” in the movie (which is what Reynolds wrote as the caption to the clip) and they allow characters to hop through the multiverse. Clearly the door is open for Tatum’s Gambit to return back to his home universe or to anywhere in the multiverse. While it’s not confirmed that Tatum’s Gambit will continue in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, this is the biggest confirmation yet that at least it’s a possibility.

It's no secret that the Marvel Cinematic Universe has been enduring somewhat of a crisis in recent years. In simple terms, it got to the point where we simply had too much of the MCU and it was getting ridiculous (as were the box office profits, which had plummeted in the age of Marvel ubiquity). But aside from the fact that the films and streaming series had become far too numerous, one of the biggest criticisms of modern MCU movies was that many of them seemed designed as mere vehicles to set up the next installment in the gargantuan franchise, sacrificing story and character in favor of furthering the shared universe enterprise itself.
Thankfully, though, a savior has arrived in the form of Ryan Reynolds, whose "Deadpool & Wolverine" has made well over a billion dollars and seemingly proved that there is life in the MCU yet. While it's too...

Over the weekend, we shared some new photos and footage from the set of The Fantastic Four: First Steps featuring Times Square, the Baxter Building's Excelsior launchpad, and a mysterious statue.
At the time, we wondered whether the latter might be alien in nature; now, upon closer inspection, we see it's meant as a tribute to Marvel's First Family.
Mister Fantastic, Invisible Woman, Human Torch, and The Thing have all been incorporated into a rather artsy piece which feels like it may very well be the work of a certain Alicia Masters! That's pure speculation on our part, of course, but Natasha Lyonne remains a popular suggestion for the role of Ben Grimm's future wife among fans.

Spoilers ahead for "Deadpool & Wolverine."
About a third of the way through Shawn Levy's big Marvel cameo reel "Deadpool & Wolverine," the two title heroes (Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman) find themselves in an alternate dimension nicknamed the Void. It's a desert wasteland populated mostly by actors and characters from moribund superhero franchises that were once owned by 20th Century Fox, but are now operating under the auspices of Disney. In one of the film's more fun cameos, a character played by actor Chris Evans steps forward to defend Deadpool and Wolverine from oncoming marauders. Deadpool recognizes him as Captain America, and is eager and giddy to hear him say his trademark Captain America phrase "Avengers, assemble!"
Instead, however, the Evans character shouts "Flame on!" He is, in fact, the Johnny Storm a.k.a. the Human Torch, the character Evans played in the Fox-owned "Fantastic Four" from...

Robert Downey Jr. is coming back into the MCU, but not as Tony Stark. He will come into the MCU as a different character, and this time as a villain. He’s taking on the iconic role of Doctor Doom.
This has seen mixed reactions from fans. After all, he’s already made his mark on the MCU. Well, he’s not the only actor to step back into the Marvel Cinematic Universe but as a different character. Here are 13 who have done it before him, and some of them may surprise you.

The most obvious one, especially thanks to Deadpool & Wolverine, is Chris Evans. He initially stepped into the MCU as Johnny Storm, aka The Human Torch, in the first bunch of Fantastic Four movies as the MCU got off the ground.

Work continues on The Fantastic Four: First Steps set in England and it appears the alternate reality Times Square has finally been completed.
As you can see in the newly revealed photos and videos below, signage has been added to the buildings along with a giant TV screen and well over a dozen '60s-style vehicles. However, both they and everything else we see have an interesting retro-futuristic spin on them.
That's because the reboot doesn't just take place in the 1960s, but in a world far more advanced than our own which appears to have benefited massively from Mister Fantastic's genius.
We'd imagine the cast will soon start shooting on this massive set, though it remains to be seen whether we'll get any photos of footage of Marvel's First Family in action.

Jessica Alba first played Sue Storm/Invisible Woman in 2005's Fantastic Four and later reprised the role in 2007's Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer.
The actress received positive reviews for her take on the character and, while there were some differences from the comics (and the odd occasion where Sue was relegated to "love interest" given the time those movies were made), Alba remains a firm fan favourite.
Talking to Collider about her now Roku series Honest Renovations, the Sin City star shared her advice for The Fantastic Four: First Steps' Sue Storm, Vanessa Kirby.
"I think just have fun. The fans are so amazing," she shared. "It was probably one of the best times of my life, going around the world and meeting all of the people that just love The Fantastic Four and love these comic books and can relate to these stories."

Ryan Reynolds was gutted to cut his pal Rob McElhenney's cameo from 'Deadpool and Wolverine'.Although his brief appearance ended up on the cutting room floor, the 47-year-old actor - who plays the Merc With The Mouth aka Deadpool in the Marvel blockbuster - is "grateful" that his fellow Wrexham AFC co-owner, also 47, supported him on set.Ryan spilled on Threads: “So, @robmcelhenney kindly did a cameo in D and W.“The sequence wasn’t working and Rob is why it stayed in the cut for so long. Even under a Tva mask, you can feel him smoldering with a raw, untapped reservoir of intensity. Don’t get me started on Wrexham. I wouldn’t know a love like that if it weren’t for Rob.“It feels good when friends are nearby. And even though I’m mortified he flew to London for me, I’m grateful [I had] my friend on that set.

It's no secret that "Deadpool & Wolverine" is filled with some surprising superhero cameos. Honestly, they're more than cameos, as they basically turn into supporting roles, with the likes of Elektra (Jennifer Garner), Blade (Wesley Snipes), Gambit (Channing Tatum), and X-23 (Dafne Keen) teaming up to battle Cassandra Nova in the Void, in an effort to give themselves a chance at a proper ending, even if it means their demise.
Thankfully, by the end of "Deadpool & Wolverine," it seems like the Time Variance Authority may have figured out a way to get all of them back to their proper timelines, since we see X-23 hanging out with Wolverine and Deadpool back at Wade Wilson's apartment with all of his friends. Sadly, other superheroes like Johnny Storm and Daredevil (played by Ben Affleck in a 2003 movie from 20th Century Fox) met their demise in a much less epic fashion, and...

Ryan Reynolds was “mortified” to cut Rob McElhenney’s cameo from “Deadpool & Wolverine” given that his friend and Wrexham football club co-owner flew all the way to London to make it happen. McElhenney filmed scenes for the Marvel blockbuster as a Time Variance Authority soldier but they didn’t make it into the movie. Reynolds wants the scenes to “hopefully live on in the digital extras.”
“While editing a movie, they say you sometimes have to kill your darlings. And with a heavy heart (and through great outside intervention) I had to kill a darling with this cameo,” Reynolds wrote on Instagram accompanied by photos of McElhenney in character on set.
“The sequence wasn’t working the way we’d originally constructed it,” Reynolds explained. “Rob was the only reason it stayed in the cut for as long as it did, because even under a Tva mask and helmet,...

Deadpool & Wolverine was everything we could've expected from a Marvel Cinematic Universe project and more. Its titular heroes had great chemistry, the action sequences were fast-paced and bloody, and the soundtrack was out of this world. However, the movie's shocking cameos were responsible for elevating it to a whole new level.
Few things compared to going blind to the theater and finding out the likes of Johnny Storm, Blade, Elektra, Gambit, and more made a surprise appearance. So, by all means, we're more than satisfied with what Shawn Levy, Ryan Renolds, Hugh Jackman, and the rest of the Marvel crew created with this jaw-dropping blockbuster. But if we were to be bold and ask for even more wild cameos, then a few characters quickly pop into mind.
So it's time to break down who else we missed in Deadpool & Wolverine!

Thomas Jane Reveals Truth About Deadpool & Wolverine's Punisher Cameo Rumor - Main Image
Among the rumored and speculated Deadpool and Wolverine cameos, The Punisher was one of the longest top appearances supposedly gracing the threequel to return to Marvel. Well, it's time to put an end to the speculations through the actor's confirmation himself.
The Punisher Actor Thomas Jane Puts Deadpool 3 Cameo Rumor To Rest
From Henry Cavill's Wolverine variant, Wesley Snipes' Blade, Jennifer Garner's Elektra, Channing Tatum's Gambit, Chris Evans' Johnny Storm aka Human Torch to Dafne Keen's X-23 aka Laura cameos, The Punisher's Thomas Jane had been the longest in reports before the premiere of the Deadpool threequel.
That, however, didn't come true. In fact, The Predator star himself confirmed that he was never called to reprise his iconic role as Frank Castle in the first place.
"Nope," he answered simply before explaining further,...

Marvel Studios has yet to announce a release date for Deadpool & Wolverine on Blu-ray (and likely won't for a while given how well it's doing at the box office), but we now have the first deleted scene for you!
Shared by Peter actor Rob Delaney, it's an extended version of Wade Wilson and Logan's arrival on Earth-100005 and includes a throwback to an earlier gag involving the car salesman's...unique...jewellery.
Wolverine and those kids are both a little freaked out and we'd imagine this will ultimately end up on the threequel's eventual blooper reel.

Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman's film Deadpool & Wolverine gave the Marvel Cinematic Universe some jaw-dropping cameos, including several stars from the past X-Men films.
Reynolds' wife, Blake Lively, became a show-stopper when she took on the role of Lady Deadpool, as her skin-tight red catsuit highlighted her curves.
Channing TatumMEGA
Marvel fans who have watched the film surely had a hard time understanding Channing Tatum's lines as he played Gambit's role. In fact, he became the subject of memes following his appearance in Deadpool & Wolverine after Deadpool asked the character whether minions were Gambit's dialect coach.
Chris EvansMEGA
Chris Evans famously delivered his phrase, "Avengers, assemble!" as Captain America. However, he surprised Deadpool and the viewers when he yelled, "Flame on!" before flying into the sky.

Ryan Reynolds is calling for more Blade on the big screen following Wesley Snipes’ long-awaited return as the Marvel superhero in “Deadpool & Wolverine.” Reynolds shared to Instagram behind-the-scenes photos he took with Snipes on the film’s set. Snipes debuted as Blade in the 1998 movie of the same name and reprised the character in 2002’s “Blade II” and 2004’s “Blade: Trinity,” the latter of which co-starred Reynolds.
“The reaction when Wesley Snipes enters the movie is the most intense thing l’ve heard in a theater,” Reynolds wrote in the caption to the post. “People screaming with uninhibited joy and love is also the sound of a legacy. More Blade, please.”
Snipes’ Blade was one of several heroes from Fox’s era of Marvel movies to return in “Deadpool & Wolverine.” Jennifer Garner’s Elektra and Chris Evans’ Johnny Storm also appeared much to the delight of comic book movie fans.

The Marvel Comics have had millions of iconic moments and it is actually pretty impossible to pick one favorite out of them all. However, if we Had to choose, we probably might go with Doctor Doom’s wedding in Fantastic Four Vol. 6 #33. Well, his “almost” wedding. Things were going pretty well for him and his beau until Johnny Storm stepped in with his fiery charm and ruined everything.

In fact, comic book enthusiasts still have not gotten over Namor’s reaction to the whole mess.

At last month's San Diego Comic-Con, Marvel Studios welcomed the Russo Brothers back to the MCU as the directors of Avengers: The Kang Dynasty Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars.
However, the biggest surprise was saved for last with the introduction of Robert Downey Jr. as the Multiverse Saga's new big bad, Doctor Doom.
The Oscar-winner spent over a decade playing Iron Man, so the fact he's returning to Marvel as that iconic villain was definitely unexpected. Unfortunately, much of the excitement has been dampened by concerns from fans he'll be playing an evil Tony Stark Variant in Doom's armour.
Talking to The Hollywood Reporter, Downey broke his silence on being cast as Doom while addressing his role as Iron Man in Disneyland's upcoming "Stark Flight Lab" ride. He also confirmed that he's playing Victor Von Doom while discussing Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige's eagerness to do right by the character.

Chris Evans might be best known as Steve Rogers, the Marvel Cinematic Universe's first Captain America, but most fans will know this was not his first foray into superhero movies. In fact, it wasn't even his first experience playing a Marvel character. Prior to playing Cap, Evans appeared as Johnny Storm/The Human Torch in 2005's "Fantastic Four" — a much maligned effort from the days when 20th Century Fox owned a chunk of the Marvel portfolio, only for the studio itself to be subsumed by Disney in 2019.
But when it comes to "Fantastic Four," one thing that you can't fault director Tim Story for is the casting, especially in Evans' case. The actor did a fine job as Johnny Storm, bringing a cocky yet endearing energy to the role, and seemingly maintaining a personal affection for the character ever since. Evans spoke about returning as Johnny Storm in 2022, saying it...

Marvel superheroes have had some memorable last moments on film. Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) affirming one last time "I am Iron Man" before annihilating Thanos with a finger snap in "Avengers: Endgame." "Logan" has Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) dying a peaceful death with his heart in his hands, finally knowing the last answer all people receive: "So this is what it feels like." Remy LeBeau, currently deceased after the shocking "X-Men '97" episode "Remember It," stopped the completion of a mutant genocide by detonating the Sentinel that skewered him, giving his life with one last boast: "The name's Gambit — remember it!"
But while a handful of superheroes have died in the movies, many more have in the comics. Since the 1992 event "The Death of Superman," it's pretty much become a right of passage for any Marvel or DC character deemed important enough to receive a headlining death and then resurrection.

The Oscar winner’s performances in films like Chaplin, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, The Judge, and Oppenheimer have been appreciated by fans and critics. However, his career-defining role as Iron Man in the MCU made him a global superstar.

There have been rumours for a while now about Franklin Richards factoring into The Fantastic Four: First Steps and we now have new intel on how the son of Reed Richards and Sue Storm Richards will be linked to the reboot's villain, Galactus.
According to scooper @MyTimeToShineH (meaning we're taking this with a hefty pinch of salt), the World Eater summons Marvel's First Family by sending the Silver Surfer to Earth, demanding they bring Franklin to him.
If they refuse, then he'll destroy their planet. As for what he wants with the boy, that isn't revealed, though we can look to the comics for clues.
So far, it appears Marvel Studios is pulling inspiration from "Earth X," a reality which saw Shalla-Bal become Silver Surfer, by creating a connection between Frankin and the world-eating baddie.

Of all the films on Marvel's upcoming slate of movies, Avengers: Secret Wars might just be the most eagerly-anticipated. Not only is it based on one of the most iconic Marvel Comics storylines of all time, it's also set to bring about the end of the franchise's Multiverse Saga, acting as this chapter's Avengers: Endgame, if you will.
With that in mind, the Marvel Cinematic Universe will likely provide an incredible piece of entertainment, full of surprises and memorable moments that could very well send the Multiverse Saga out on a note even higher than the Infinity Saga's legendary finale. Oh yes, there has already been speculation about who could make their presence felt in the film, and whether or not Marvel Studios will bring back some more classic Marvel characters (both from the MCU and film series that pre-date it).

At last month's San Diego Comic-Con, Marvel Studios shared a very early teaser trailer for The Fantastic Four: First Steps. A predictably low-quality bootleg soon hit social media but at D23 this past weekend, those fortunate enough to be in Anaheim also got to see it.
A near-hd version has since leaked and we've combed through this first look at Marvel Studios' take on the First Family frame by frame. While the trailer is mostly comprised of test footage filmed before cameras officially started rolling, there's still a lot it tells us about the reboot.
From the team's origin story to a glimpse inside the alternate reality they call home and even a cameo which wasn't spotted after the Comic-Con leak, we're breaking down all the biggest moments and reveals for you right here.

Deadpool and Wolverine Concept Art Showcases Cancelled Heroes Like Daredevil and Ghost Rider - Main Image
Deadpool and Wolverine may have had a lot of cameos, from the most obscure mutants to the Daywalker Blade himself. Even more hero cameos were planned to appear, but they didn't work out in the end.
It was said that other heroes like Ben Affleck’s Daredevil and Nicolas Cage’s Ghost Rider were asked to appear, and though those cameos never happened, some concept art for the film imagines what the clash with the Deadpool Corps would have looked like with the veteran Fox heroes.

After the success of the first "Deadpool," 20th Century Fox immediately began planning a trilogy, with the original idea being for the X-Force to feature prominently in the third film. Of course, "Deadpool 2" ended up being kind of about X-Force, and by the time that movie was released, Disney had already announced the acquisition of 20th Century Fox. This also meant going back to the drawing board for "Deadpool 3."
Still, this didn't stop Ryan Reynolds from trying to make the third "Deadpool" movie happen, as brainstorming on that movie started before "Deadpool 2" opened in theaters. Many of the early concepts for "Deadpool 3" were eventually scrapped, like making it a Sundance-sized road trip movie with Dopinder or a bad remake of "Thor: The Dark World." Still, certain elements struck around and even made their way into the final version, i.e. "Deadpool & Wolverine."

After numerous underperformers at the Box Office in the Multiverse saga, the Marvel Cinematic Universe seems to have finally struck gold with Deadpool & Wolverine, a movie which has already crossed $1 billion globally, breaking an ominous streak for the MCU. But that isn’t the only reason that the project was a joy to behold for the fans. One of the reasons that fans loved seeing the film featuring the Merc with the Mouth was its cameos. And one Deadpool & Wolverine star is hopeful to turn that cameo into something more.

Deadpool & Wolverine is now officially part of the billion-dollar club and, with the spoiler embargo lifted, many of the artists that worked on the acclaimed Marvel Studios blockbuster have been sharing amazing concept art from the film, including this latest piece from Rodney Fuentebella, who confirms plans for a slightly different, albeit equally epic, finale.
It looks like the Shawn Levy-directed film always planned on coming to a close with Deadpool (Ryan Reynolds) and Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) taking on the Deadpool Corps in a bloody balls to the wall battle, but it seems like an earlier version of the script would have given the duo some major backup.
In the film, Wade and Logan join the Resistance, which consists of X-23 (Dafne Keen), Elektra (Jennifer Garner), Blade (Wesley Snipes), Gambit (Channing Tatum), and, prior to his unpreventable demise, Johnny Storm (Chris Evans).

Halle Berry Reveals She Was Not Asked to Appear in Deadpool & Wolverine - Main Image
X-Men actress Halle Berry recently opened up about not returning as Storm in Deadpool & Wolverine.
The hit MCU film brought back several actors from past Marvel movies including Wesley Snipes' Blade, Dafne Keen's X-23, Chris Evans' Johnny Storm, Aaron Stanford's Pyro, and Jennifer Garner's Elektra.
However, Hugh Jackman's co-stars in the original X-Men movies were notably absent as none of the main cast members showed up in the film. Fans have been wondering why they were not recruited for the multiversal adventure.

Here's How Fortnite Inspired Kevin Feige for Fantastic Four: First Steps - Main Image
Marvel Studios may not have released the official Fantastic Four: First Steps trailer, but the leaked footage is all over the internet. Naturally, fans have been poring over every single detail.
Though the teaser only gave fans a small look at the Devourer of Worlds, Galactus, it seems like his presence in the film will be inspired by one of the most unlikely adaptations—Fortnite.

What happens when the most improvisation-heavy superhero studio around meets the Merc with a Mouth, the most chaotic superhero of them all? By the looks of things, you get an ambitious production like "Deadpool & Wolverine" where, at some point, it seems as if anything and everything was probably on the table. The final version of the team-up movie we ended up with is practically bursting with cameos and Easter eggs. Chris Evans' reappearance as Johnny Storm would've been a massive coup all on its own, but director Shawn Levy and star/co-writer Ryan Reynolds went the extra mile to recruit even more blockbuster castoffs, including the likes of Jennifer Garner's Elektra, Channing Tatum's Gambit, and, of course, Wesley Snipes' unfailingly badass Blade.
Yet that hardly even scratches the surface of all the concepts tossed around for what "Deadpool & Wolverine" could've potentially been. Even on a standard Marvel Cinematic Universe movie,...

In a movie full of surprises, one of Deadpool and Wolverine's biggest - for those that hadn't been keeping up with the rumors, at least - was the return of Chris Evans to the MCU in a pivotal moment shortly after Logan and Wade Wilson are stranded in The Void.
Evans is ultimately revealed to be playing The Fantastic Four's Johnny Storm, but right up until the moment he flames on, we are supposed to believe he's reprised the role of Steve Rogers/Captain America.
John Staub has now shared some more concept art, this time featuring the "red, white and blue" Nomad-inspired look Evans sports prior to taking to the skies as the Human Torch.
Check out the artwork below, along with a fun new video of Jennifer Garner's Elektra going about her day in the Resistance's lair, and some more shots of Dogpool from Ryan Reynolds.

When Marvel introduced the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) in 2008 with Iron Man, few anticipated—though many hoped—that it would evolve into the colossal, single-narrative film series it is today, becoming one of the most significant projects in cinematic history. While not every installment is perfect, its historical significance is undeniable.
Given this, many iconic moments from these films will endure. Recently, we’ve covered how Kevin Feige’s decision to bring Hugh Jackman back as Wolverine for Deadpool & Wolverine, along with Robert Downey Jr.’s return to the MCU as Victor Von Doom—the main antagonist in upcoming Avengers films—has stirred controversy among fans. Some feel these choices have diminished the impact of earlier pivotal scenes.
Deadpool & Wolverine has made light of Logan, but it also trivialized a memorable moment from Avengers: Endgame. This trend raises concerns that it might genuinely affect the MCU’s future.

When Marvel launched the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) back in 2008 with Iron Man, no one knew – although many people hoped – that it would become what it is today, and that is the biggest single-narrative film series of all time and one of the biggest projects in the history of cinema in general. It’s not always great, but its historical importance cannot be denied.
In light of that, many moments from these films will remain with us forever, and we have recently reported how Kevin Feige’s decision to bring Hugh Jackman back as Wolverine for Deadpool & Wolverine, as well as the decision to bring Robert Downey Jr. back to the MCU as Victor Von Doom, who is going to be the main villain in the upcoming Avengers movies, angered some fans and how it ruined the impact of some of these moments.

"Welcome to the MCU. You're joining at a little bit of a low point." So says Deadpool (Ryan Renolds) to Wolverine (Hugh Jackman) in their new movie, simply titled "Deadpool & Wolverine," which ushers the stable of Marvel characters formerly owned by 20th Century Fox into their new home at Marvel Studios. Indeed, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has been faltering since the bombastic triumph of "Avengers: Endgame" -- both critically and commercially.
"Deadpool & Wolverine," however, has been squarely spared from the effects of superhero fatigue. On the Saturday of its third weekend at the box office, the movie crossed the $1 billion mark at the worldwide box office. It's a milestone that has only ever been hit by one other R-rated movie: 2019's "Joker," which topped out at $1.078 billion worldwide. "Joker" probably won't hold on to the title of highest-grossing R-rated movie much longer, given that "Deadpool & Wolverine" has...

This weekend, Disney shared a lot of information at its D23 conference, giving fans their first looks at a lot of big new shows and movies coming down the pike. Mind you, while fans who were actually at the conference, got to see this stuff, the rest of us will have to go without until Disney releases something official...but that doesn't mean you can't find the relevant footage if you search the internet hard enough.
Let's focus here on all the new Marvel things coming up. Disney has scored a monster hit with Deadpool & Wolverine, which is close to crossing the billion-dollar mark at the box office. For the first time in a while, there's a lot of hype about the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Can Disney keep that up? You be the judge.

We may have been treated to some official footage from The Fantastic Four: First Steps yesterday evening (albeit through unofficial means), but the latest set footage - once again taken from afar - is also generating a fair bit of buzz among fans.
While we'd assumed Vanessa Kirby's Sue Storm was being filmed with the young Franklin Richards in her arms after taking a fall, it instead appears they're lying in bed.
That raises several questions, including why the scene would be shot in the open. Perhaps the Invisible Woman is comforting the child by using her force field powers to float around outside? That's one way to settle a baby!
It's tough to say from this distance but we're sure the video will generate even more fan theories...

Kevin Feige showcased some of Marvel's upcoming projects along with the actors at this year's D23 at the Honda Center in Anaheim, CA. The showcase included Captain America: Brave New World's Anthony Mackie, Daredevil: Born Again stars Charlie Cox, Vincent Donofrio, John Bernthal, Deborah Ann Woll, Agatha All Along's Katherine Hahn, Patti LuPone, and Aubrey Plaza. Ironheart's Dominique Thorne (Black Panther: Wakanda Forever) and Anthony Ramos. From the set of Fantastic Four, Pedro Pascal, Venessa Kirby, Ebon Moss-Bacharach, and Joseph Quinn in his Johnny Storm costume sent a message to the D23 crowd.

The Fantastic Four: First Steps came to Disney’s D23 movie and TV preview at Anaheim’s cavernous Honda Center with just a little bit more than they showed at San Diego Comic-Con two weeks earlier. With the movie now two weeks into filming and the cast working in London, Marvel’s First Family—Pedro Pascal (Reed Richards), Vanessa Kirby (Sue Storm), Joseph Quinn (Johnny Storm), and Ebon Moss-Bachrach (Ben Grimm)—delivered a video greeting to the 12,000 fans in the arena.
The four were seated around what could have been the gang’s kitchen table, but what drew the most attention, of course, was that Quinn was also wearing what looked very much like our first look at a Fantastic Four costume from the movie. But it’s not the classic 1960s suit you might have expected from this superhero period piece.
The costume appeared to be all blue from the shoulders down,...
