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 look forward to the day when all Marvel characters are back in Marvel hands so they can be depicted properly.

I'm afraid they are packing too much into one story.
The IG and IW are two entirely different stories and they seem to be getting waaaaaay ahead of themselves here. My hopes are actually falling because of all of this. Seriously. Can we Fn deal with Thanos first. Although, Thanos as a protagonist in IW is my favorite character of all time, this is too much. |

Mostly positive reviews from the ant-man press junket. Apparently two big post-credits scenes: http://collider.com/ant-man-reviews-..._medium=social

Marvel Could Be Making An "Origins" Movie Set In The Past For the most part, every single Marvel Studios movie up to and including Ant-Man, has taken place chronologically. The one exception is the World War II set Captain America: The First Avenger. Now, Marvel president Kevin Feige teases there could be another flashback origin story in the works. Speaking with io9, Feige says the following, when asked whether any of the upcoming Marvel origin stories (which include Doctor Strange, Black Panther, Captain Marvel and Inhumans) could be set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s past. Certainly we could [set another one in the past]. There are no rules. I think the majority of them will be chronological, but not all of them necessarily. Which, obviously, doesn’t mean this is definite. Nor does it mean, if it is true, that any of the films would be a period piece, like The First Avenger was. Maybe one of them, while a part of Phase Three, could also have elements that take place in the past. If this is true, though, two of Marvel’s upcoming films make more sense than the others. Doctor Strange was referenced in Captain America: The Winter Soldier, so he has probably been operating for a while. Black Panther has been on the other side of the world, so he could potentially have ruled Wakanda for years before he’ll appear on screen. On the other hand, Inhumans are in space—so time isn’t really a factor there. On the other hand, Captain Marvel feels like a character whose existence would change the world. Not something that could be happening in the background. There’s also Spider-Man, but we’re pretty sure that’s not going to be an origin story, and he’ll already be in Captain America: Civil War. So I’d guess that’s out, too. According to Feige, the general rule when it comes to Marvel movies is that their time frame relates to their original theatrical release. So if Avengers: Age of Ultron was released in May, and Ant-Man is being released in July, about three months have lapsed between the stories. We’ll have more from Feige over the coming days. |

I would imagine that Magus would be used like Batroc was, as a one-scene minor villain.

Is it just me or is the audio way out of sync for the extended Ant-Man?
