WARNING: Before you continue reading this article, I must warn you that SPOILERS for Doctor Strange 2 are coming up!

Right, now that we got all that out of the way and the people who haven’t watched Doctor Strange 2 yet for some reason are gone, we can carry on talking about the latest MCU movie.

So, after watching the movie, you would have all realised that Deadpool was not in the movie, despite all the claims from scoopers that he would be.

Ryan Reynolds himself revealed that he wasn’t going to be in the movie, and he wasn’t lying.

Some fans thought they could see Reynolds’ Deadpool in one of the shards of glass in Doctor Strange 2’s poster.

However, according to writer Michael Waldron, they did talk about bringing Deadpool into the movie.

Here’s what Waldron had to say when he asked about Deadpool being in Doctor Strange 2 during an interview with ComicBook.com:

Yeah, we talked about it. I think we talked about everything in this movie. So, [it] would’ve been crazy to not raise that, but it ultimately didn’t feel like… It just didn’t feel the right place. But yeah, of course, we talked about it.

It would have been great to get to see Reynolds’ Deadpool in the movie.

However, it might have been one cameo too much for the movie if you tried to fit Deadpool in there as well.

Depp has already testified in his defamation lawsuit against his ex-wife, Amber Heard.

The court is currently on hiatus and we are currently halfway through Amber Heard’s testimony which is part of the defence’s case.

According to Law & Crime, Depp will be called back to the witness stand in the case against Amber Heard.

We’re also going to get to hear testimony from Heard’s sister, Whitney Henriquez and actor Ellen Barkin.

It’s going to be very interesting to hear what Whitney and Ellen have to say about what they are claiming went on between Heard and Depp when they were married.

As for Ellen Barkin, the actress had a short relationship with Johnny Depp whilst on the set of the movie, Fear And Loathing In Las Vegas.

It’s being reported that she is going to be giving her deposition via video link.

Barkin has previously alleged that Johnny Depp threw a wine bottle across a Las Vegas hotel room once whilst they were filming the movie together.

However, Johnny Depp said during the 2020 court case against The Sun in the United Kingdom that she made this claim due to a grudge she held over unreciprocated feelings.

This news was revealed by Deadline and they also added that A Simple Favor’s director Paul Feig would also be helming this project.

It was also revealed that Feig will produce the movie with Laura Fischer.

Jessica Sharzer is writing the screenplay.

Feigco Entertainment is set to produce A Simple Favor’s sequel.

Sharzer will executive produce.

Honestly, the first film was one of my favourite films to come out in 2018.

It was great fun and both Blake Lively and Anna Kendrick perfect in the film.

The first movie follows a single mother, Stephanie, played by Anna Kendrick who runs a parenting vlog.

She ends up befriending a secretive upper-class woman, Emily, played by Lively who has a child at the same elementary school.

When Emily goes missing, Stephanie decides to investigate and find out where she’s disappeared to.

The first movie ended up being a critical and commercial success for Lionsgate.

The film ended up making more than $97 million at the worldwide box office which is pretty good for a film which was made for $20 million.

A Simple Favor was also Certified Fresh status on Rotten Tomatoes and ended up attracting a strong fan base.

This fan base is what Lionsgate will be hoping will result in a lot of people going to the cinema to watch the sequel.

Meredith Wieck and Scott O’Brien are overseeing the project for Lionsgate.

Before Doctor Strange 2 (Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness) was released there had been some rumours that Charlize Theron was going to cameo in the movie.

Well, I was sitting there when the credits on the movie started to roll and I did start to wonder where Charlize Theron was in the movie.

Then the mid-credits scene started and all was revealed.

Charlize Theron turned up in the scene as Clea and she is a very interesting character in the Marvel Comics.

Clea actually had a relationship with Doctor Strange and she ended up becoming the Sorcerer Supreme of the Dark Dimension.

However, there’s been a lot of dark moments with Clea in the comics.

She’s ended up becoming Strange’s enemy in some comic book runs and she is extremely powerful.

In the mid-credits scene, Clea tells Doctor Strange, “You caused an incursion, and we’re going to fix it.”

Strange doesn’t seem to recognise her, but nonetheless, he joins her in stepping into a portal to her home: the Dark Dimension.

It’s going to be very interesting to see what Doctor Strange and Clea get up to in the MCU after this first meeting.

Here’s what McKellen actually wrote in his Facebook post:

If I had a daughter, I’d hope she’d be like Elizabeth. A treat to be her Daddy!

Underneath this caption, he included a link to an interview Olsen did with Geek Culture.

In that interview, Elizabeth Olsen revealed that she would love to work with Sir Ian McKellen on a Marvel Cinematic Universe movie.

She actually revealed that his version of Magneto should be the Scarlet Witch’s father.

That would make quite a bit of sense because Magneto is Scarlet Witch’s father in the comic books.

Here’s what Elizabeth Olsen had to say about McKellen’s Magneto being Scarlet Witch’s father in the MCU:

Oh… [laughs] I’m gonna go with Sir Ian McKellen. I had the biggest crush on him. He’s in these videos called Playing Shakespeare where actors get together and they do a Shakespeare… It’s a video series. He’s like the sexiest man in the world so I would say Sir Ian McKellen.

Olsen said this after the release of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness and that movie certainly pushes Phase Four forward.

Could Ian McKellen’s Magneto be brought into the MCU?

After Doctor Strange 2, it wouldn’t be implausible to see McKellen’s version of Magneto be brought into the MCU.

Fans have also been wondering where Olsen’s Scarlet Witch will appear next.

Well, Olsen did have a few things to say about her future in the MCU during an interview with Extra.

We got to do so much with the character, so much with the story and I just wanted to make sure that we continued the evolution into this film and to play things that our fans or the audience haven’t seen her do yet. There’s a couple different versions of what could happen at the end of this film. Mostly, I want to hear what the fans who know her best, what they would like to see from her next.”

The Batman podcast is called Batman Unburied and it’s a brilliant podcast to listen to for all Batman and DC fans.

It stars the likes of Lance Reddick who plays Thomas Wayne in the podcast.

He’s joined by Winston Duke as Bruce Wayne, Jason Isaacs as Alfred Pennyworth, Hasan Minhaj as The Riddler and Gina Rodriguez as Barbara Gordon.

The really interesting thing about this podcast is that it seems to be set in an alternate universe.

Bruce Wayne is a forensic pathologist with Gotham Hospital in this show and he’s tasked with examining the victims of The Harvester, a gruesome serial killer preying on Gotham’s citizens.

The Batman Unburied podcast has beaten Joe Rogan’s show on Spotify!

Not only will the superhero be forced to face his own mental demons, but he will also have to overcome them in order to save the citizens of Gotham as his alter-ego, Batman.

Bruce’s father, Thomas Wayne and his mother, Martha Wayne, are both alive in this universe.

However, it does seem as though Bruce is still reliving the moment his parents were shot in that dark alley in Gotham.

So, there could be some sort of connection to another universe in which Bruce lost his parents in that shooting.

This podcast has proven to be so popular with Spotify subscribers that it’s ended up dethroning the king of podcasts on the platform, Joe Rogan.

It’s going to be very interesting to see whether this podcast manages to stay in that number one spot for the entirety of its run.

Geekosity’s Mikey Sutton is now reporting that the actress/director is in talks with Marvel Studios for the role.

Sutton says that “sources indicated Marvel Studios was seriously considering her” for the role of Susan Storm in the upcoming Fantastic Four movie.

He also adds that Marvel Studios has considered her as a potential replacement for Jon Watts as the movie’s director.

Howard has already shown that she’s more than capable behind the camera with her work on multiple episodes of The Mandalorian and a single episode of The Book Of Boba Fett.

She arguably directed the best episode of The Book Of Boba Fett.

Howard is currently in pre-production on another project called Flight of the Navigator which would be her first feature-length movie as a director.

She is about to star in Jurassic World: Dominion and I think she’s one of the most underrated actors working in Hollywood today.

However, it does seem as though Howard is more interested in directing than acting these days.

Interestingly enough, Mikey Sutton isn’t the only person out there claiming that Bryce Dallas Howard is in talks for the role of Susan Storm.

Popular YouTuber Everything Always also claimed in a recent video that Marvel Studios is in discussions with Howard to play The Invisible Woman in the upcoming film.

However, we do have to be cautious with these reports because this isn’t the first actress we’ve heard of being attached to the role.

There have been the likes of Emily Blunt and Jennifer Lawrence who’ve both been rumoured to be ‘in talks’ for the role of Susan Storm.

Both actresses have debunked those rumours.

However, [SPOILERS FOR DOCTOR STRANGE 2] seeing John Krasinski turn up as Reed Richard in Doctor Strange 2 did make me wonder whether Marvel also approached his wife, Emily Blunt, to cameo as Susan Storm in the movie.

I wouldn’t be surprised to hear that she turned them down.

What do you make of this report?

Do you think Bryce Dallas Howard would make a good Susan Storm in the Fantastic Four movie?

The movie just crossed the $200 million mark in the United States on Monday.

However, Doctor Strange 2 has been making a lot of money overseas.

Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness has now made $500 million worldwide, which is pretty impressive given that the movie was released only last week.

The film is also nearing $300 million at the international box office and it looks like the movie is certain to hit that number internationally today.

So, let’s break down how much the movie’s been making in each territory.

The Sam Raimi movie has made $507.8 million so far in total.

$294.2 million of that number comes from 49 material offshore markets.

The US box office accounts for $213.6 million and that number keeps on growing and it’s growing fast.

On Monday, the Doctor Strange sequel ended up making $15.7 million internationally.

Doctor Strange 2 then added another $16.1 million on Tuesday.

If you add how much the movie made in the US, then that total comes to $29 million on Monday and $28.7 million on Tuesday.

This means that Doctor Strange 2 is on course to become the second biggest worldwide hit of the pandemic era, behind Spider-Man: No Way Home.

It’s also on course to become the fourth highest-grossing MCU movie ever, behind Avengers: Endgame, Avengers: Infinity War and Spider-Man: No Way Home.

Olsen revealed this during an interview with CinemaBlend.

I’ll start off by saying that Olsen’s performance in the movie as Scarlet Witch was spellbinding (pardon the pun).

I’ve always thought she was great in the role, but I get the feeling that she was really allowed to break loose in this movie.

Yes, I get that some people were a bit upset by the fact that she was Doctor Strange 2’s villain given everything she went through in WandaVision.

However, I thought the show made it pretty obvious that Scarlet Witch was going to be a villain at the end.

Anyway, Olsen was asked about the X-Men coming to the MCU, and here’s what she had to say on that matter:

You just got me excited, because I don’t really know what I do next after this movie. I want to know what fans want and what the ideas are. But, I guess you just said it, if we’re bringing X-Men back I want to be there. But, no. I have no actual plans yet. I’m very excited to talk to Kevin [Feige] about that at some point.

Given Scarlet Witch’s ties to the X-Men in the comics, it would make sense for her to play some part in bringing them into the MCU.

We’re going to have to wait and see what ends up happening.

The post Elizabeth Olsen Can’t Wait For The X-Men To Come To The MCU appeared first on Small Screen.

WARNING: There are SPOILERS for Doctor Strange 2 (Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness) in this article.

Elizabeth Olsen revealed in a recent interview that she never actually met Sir Patrick Stewart whilst filming Doctor Strange 2 (Doctor Strange In The Multiverse Of Madness).

Stewart returned to play Professor Charles Xavier in Doctor Strange 2 and it was a pretty brilliant moment in the movie.

However, he wasn’t the only incredible cameo in the movie.

As a member of the Illuminati, Stewart’s Xavier was joined by John Krasinski as the Fantastic Four’s Reed Richards.

Well, Olsen didn’t actually meet either actor whilst making Doctor Strange 2.

It’s pretty insane given she was involved in an intense scene with both actors in the movie.

In that incredible scene in the movie in which Olsen’s Scarlet Witch killed almost all of the members of the Illuminati in brutal fashion.

However, Olsen herself told CinemaBlend she’s never even met Stewart nor John Krasinski.

I’ve never met them. Movie magic. We decided that the limitation is that she isn’t in her body, she’s in a “less oiled” version of her body so it’s not capable of doing as much as our universe’s Wanda could do. It’s more about using the body like a bad car or something like a not-so-tuned-up-car. I wanted it to be easier. It’s amazing to get to have those moments.
