Marvel unviels their next four projects
Marvel Unveils CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE WINTER SOLDIER, THOR: THE DARK WORLD, GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY and ANT-MAN
Saturday’s Hall H panel for Marvel at Comic-Con was billed as Iron Man 3, but from previous experience we all knew to expect more goodies from Marvel Studios than just IM3. We were right, as the studio announced full, intriguing titles for Thor 2 and Captain America 2, confirmed Guardians of the Galaxy (including which characters will appear), and revealed test footage for Ant-Man with a surprise appearance by Edgar Wright. Hit the jump for my full recap of this “update” portion of the Marvel panel. [Update: We've updated the article with concept art for the Guardians of the Galaxy movie as well as logos for all the upcoming Marvel films] Chris-Hemsworth-Thor 2 the dark worldFeige opened the panel by saying that they’re working on four movies in active development. The first is Iron Man 3, hitting theaters on May 3rd, 2013. He then went on to reveal titles for two previously known sequels, and confirmed another property that we’d heard rumblings of in the past few weeks. Iron Man 3 (May 3, 2013) Thor: The Dark World (November 8, 2013) Captain America: The Winter Soldier (April 4, 2014) Guardians of the Galaxy (August 1, 2014) For fans of the comics, the subtitle “The Winter Soldier” should provide a hint as to where the Captain America sequel will go. The title is a reference to a comics storyline that will find Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan) taking an integral role. guardians-of-the-galaxy-movieFeige added that Zachary Levi has been confirmed as the character of Fandrel in the Thor sequel, and revealed the team that will be unleashed for Guardians of the Galaxy: StarLord Drax the Destroyer Rocket Raccoon Groot Gamora In a fantastic surprise, Feige then introduced Edgar Wright to talk about Ant-Man. Wright had been tweeting about being in London for the past few days in an effort to throw fans off, but he came out to a very warm reception. “I’m taking the Terrence Malick approach to superheroes,” said Wright referring to the long road of development on Ant-Man. Wright and Joe Cornish wrote two more drafts of the script last year, but they’ve been done for quite a while. ant-man-movie-logoThey then revealed test footage that Wright shot for Ant-Man, after Wright toyed for a bit with the audience saying they wouldn’t really want to see a clip of stuff with wires and blue screens in it. It’s completely unfinished since they shot it two weeks ago, but they showed the footage anyway because Marvel absolutely owns Comic-Con. The footage opened with Ant-Man sitting on a ledge in an air conditioning vent that lead to a hallway guarded by two agents. The costume was pretty metallic looking, and he snuck through the vent hole and started running down the hallway. He morphed to normal size, shocking the guards, then morphed back down to ant size and kept running. Still in “ant size” he leapt up and punched one of the guys in the face, knocking the spit out of him, then he ran and attacked the other guard. The footage was obviously rough, but I thought the big/small effects worked great. Wright found a way to make Ant-Man’s power work in a cool and useful way on screen, while still allowing room for the playful tone that he does so well. While I was hoping we’d see someone like Simon Pegg play the role just for fun in the test footage, the actor was wearing the Ant-Man helmet the entire time so we never saw his face. The lights then came back up. “I’ve been doing one second of that for the last six years,” quipped Wright Wright confirmed that the costume seen in the test footage will most likely be what makes the final film. He described it as a mix between the Silver Age and contemporary Ant-Man, adding “Ant-Man will kick your ass one inch at a time.” Wright said there’s no casting to announce, but “revealed” that Ant-Man has been here in Hall H all day, pulling out an Ant-Man title card and putting it on the table next to him. Wright then left the stage to make way for the Iron Man 3 panel, but these bits of news from Marvel were met with wild applause from the audience. Hit the comments to discuss the goings-on from today’s Marvel panel, and read Matt’s recap of Iron Man 3 right here. [Update: Simon Pegg tweeted that he, Nick Frost, and Wright start filming The World's End in 10 weeks, then Wright will film Ant-Man sometime next year.] Last edited by Tribal Warfare; 07-17-2012 at 04:05 PM.. |

I don't really care if Spider-Man is a teenager (like on the Ultimate Spider-Man series) as long as they don't do another origin movie.

I loved Norton's Hulk but what I liked more was the evolution of Banner's character.
Norton's Banner hid and tried to suppress the Hulk. Ruffalo's Banner has accepted his Hulk ("I'm always angry.") The Ruffalo Hulk is pretty much where Banner/Hulk were when Planet Hulk was happening. There are two or three scenes in that story where the Hulk willingly turned back to Banner to show us that Banner agreed with the Hulk. Banner then willingly turned back to the Hulk in a show of support for what the Hulk was doing. Ruffalo did an excellent job of showing Banner's frustration with the military/Shield and his under the surface knowledge that eventually this will all unravel.

Norton Hulk movie was also meh, it was literally Norton being himself, then there was Hulk in the movie. Ruffalo to me nailed Banner, you did not think of him as Ruffalo as I did Norton in the movie. -------- I am sad they are going back to highschool with peter parker. I am fine doing that with a hs senior miles. But if using peter parker they need him established and working at the paper. Hell, people do not need an origin. Just a quick flashback of him fighting normal crooks. That way they can use Goblins and everyone else later on in solo movies. But having him back in hs is stupid as peter parker. But this is Marvel, so they probably know what they are doing. |

Was looking for a grown up Spidey in Civil War. Not much point to even having him be part of it without the family priorities weighing on his decisions. Definitely not a storyline for a teenager.

Spiderman always got to hide behind the mask. Civil War was about what happens when you suddenly become Wolverine, or the Hulk, or Cap, and everyone knows your name. And not in the "Norm" sense...

I trust the Marvel brain trust that they will treat Spidey well.
They have given us no reason to doubt them yet. I think a young Spidey interacting with older more mature superheroes like Cap and IM holds a lot of potential.

They have been rebooting Spidey for the last 20 years non-stop. Same basic storylines over and over again. smh

I loved Norton as The Hulk and was bummed he wasn't brought back, until I saw Ruffalo, then I understood.

But in the end it all worked out well. Norton probably doesn't do Birdman if he's doing Avengers 2. |
