That article claimed that Letitia Wright would be getting a more prominent role in the upcoming Black Panther sequel. Here’s what they wrote: “Wright’s character may take on a more prominent role [in Black Panther 2].”

So, it all sounds like Marvel Studios believes that the best way forward is to have T’Challa’s sister, Shuri, to take over the throne of Wakanda, which makes perfect sense. However, this doesn’t mean that she will be officially the next Black Panther until the end of the movie.

This all comes after Marvel Studios EVP Victoria Alonso recently revealed that T’Challa will be not be remade using CGI in Black Panther 2. Here’s what she had to say on the matter during an interview with Clarin:

No. There’s only one Chadwick, and he’s not with us. Our king, unfortunately, has died in real life, not just in fiction, and we are taking a little time to see how we return to history and what we do to honour this chapter of what has happened to us that was so unexpected, so painful, so terrible, really.

White Tiger is a pretty interesting Marvel Comics character. The character’s had multiple versions in the comics over the years. We’ve seen Hector Ayala, Kasper Cole, Angela del Toro and Ava Ayala all adopt the title of White Tiger.

However, according to Mikey Sutton, Black Panther 2 will see the Kasper Cole version of the character. He stole T’Challa’s costume in one of the Black Panther comics, and even made a deal with Killmonger to acquire a synthetic version of the magical herbs that give Black Panther his power.

Here’s what Mikey Sutton revealed about Black Panther 2’s potential villain being White Tiger as played by Tencoh Huerta:

A source told me that Marvel Studios was discussing White Tiger to be the main foe for T’Challa prior to Chadwick Boseman’s passing.

In the comics, White Tiger is not a bad guy, especially in his original Latino incarnation as Hector Ayala. Another character, Kevin “Kasper” Cole, took the White Tiger identity in 2002.

Cole made his debut in Black Panther (Vol. 3) No. 50, stealing T’Challa’s costume and then making a deal with Killmonger to acquire a synthetic version of the herbs that provide Black Panther with his powers.

I do like the idea of this version of White Tiger being Black Panther 2’s main villain. It’s going to be interesting to see what Marvel decides to do with Black Panther 2 moving forward.

The outlet revealed that Disney and Ryan Reynolds had been holing writer meetings for the past month. They’ve met with a whole load of new writers to hear their pitches for Deadpool 3.

Reynolds and Disney ended up settling for The Molyneux Sisters, so they must have been very impressed by their idea for the third instalment in the Deadpool franchise. The film is currently in early development, but getting writers on-board is the first hurdle to get over.

Fans are very excited by the idea of a Deadpool movie being made with Kevin Feige as a producer. He’ll be overseeing the project, and it will be the first-ever R-rated Marvel Studios movie.

They also added that as it stands David Leitch will not be returning to direct the third Deadpool film as his schedule is really busy now. However, they added that the door is open for him to return.

As for The Molyneux Sisters, they were showrunners and executive producers of the new Fox series The Great North, which is set to premiere in February and has already been renewed for a second season. They were also the writers and executive producers Bob’s Burgers on Fox. They won an Emmy in 2017 for that show and have been nominated for an Emmy for eight consecutive years.

However, according to our sources, Marvel Studios and Kevin Feige have another role in mind for the British actor. We’re being told by our sources that it could be a villain role, which would suit Stevens perfectly if you ask me.

Legion is, without a shadow of a doubt, one of the best Marvel TV shows ever made. It’s really different to anything else we’ve seen from Marvel’s output on the big or small screen.

Here’s what we were told by one of our sources regarding Dan Stevens being in talks with Marvel Studios for a role in the MCU:

Dan [Stevens] and Marvel are currently deep in discussions. It’s for a role in the MCU – the movies – and it could be a villain.

We were then contacted by a second source who corroborated the information and added the following:

Stevens is in talks with Marvel. Kevin Feige is super excited to bring him into the Marvel family. I’m hearing it’s for a villain role – not Legion.

Dan Stevens, as far as I’m concerned, is one of the most underrated actors in Hollywood. If you’ve watched Legion, then you’ll understand what I mean. He’s just so good in that show.

The show was developed by Noah Hawley and was really something special. However, it might have been just a bit too strange for regular Marvel movie and TV show viewers. It was pretty strange.

Personally, I love the idea of seeing Stevens play a villain in the MCU. I think he’d be a perfect fit for so many Marvel characters. However, it sounds like Feige has a very particular role in mind for the British actor.

If you’ve seen the likes of The Guest, Apostle, Beauty And The Beast and even the recent Eurovision movie on Netflix, then you’ll know how good an actor Stevens is. It’s a shame that he won’t be getting to play Legion again.

He was just so good in that role, and again, the show was really very special. As for who he could be playing in the MCU, I think he’d be a perfect choice for Doctor Doom. However, there are a whole host of other Marvel characters he’d be perfect for.

I do love the idea of Stevens playing a villain. Let me know which Marvel villain you think he’d be a good fit for? I have contacted Marvel Studios and Disney for comment, but they declined. I’ll let you know if anything changes.

However, I’m going to be brutally honest with this one – I don’t believe for one second that she’s ever going to get that role. There are myriad reasons why I’m dubious about Richtman’s claims here. The first one being, Heard is not a good fit for the Susan Storm role.

Now, I will be honest regarding Richtman’s ‘scoop’, he does say that Heard wants to play the role. Which is fine. However, I want to play Batman. It doesn’t mean I’ve ever going to get to portray the Dark Knight in a big Hollywood blockbuster.

Right, now onto reason two why I do not believe Amber Heard will ever be cast as Susan Storm in the MCU. She’s just too much baggage. The whole Johnny Depp court case hasn’t been great for Depp, but it’s not been good for Heard either.

Her reputation is suffering quite a bit after all those recordings between her and Depp were leaked. She doesn’t come out of them very well. There’s also the fact that there are a whole load of petitions out there calling for Heard to be fired from the DCEU. One of those petitions now has well over 1 million signatures.

That’s a lot of people who don’t like Amber Heard, and will not want to see her play Susan Storm. Finally, and this is the main reason why I think she’ll never play the role of Susan Storm, Emily Blunt is just too perfect for the role, and I’m pretty sure she’s already deep in talks with Marvel regarding the role.

People were rather shocked when Iman Vellani was cast as Ms Marvel (a.k.a. Kamala Khan), which is going to be a pretty big Disney Plus original Marvel TV show. Vellani was a complete unknown before she was cast in the role.

Ms Marvel will be her first-ever role, in anything. This just means she must have really killed it in the audition. Just think how incredible it must have been for Disney and Marvel to agree to have her play the lead in one of their big upcoming TV shows? It must have been mind-blowing!

Anyway, they’re filming the show now, and thanks to Marvel News’ photographers who are on set, we’ve had our first look at Vellani in the Ms Marvel suit. It looks a bit ropey, but that might be part of the character’s charm.

This could very well be a first iteration of the suit, which would be quite amusing as far as I’m concerned. I love seeing superheroes struggle to get the look of their suits right. Just look at the Spider-Man movies in which they did that. It was interesting in all of them.

I also think that this suit will look a lot better after the footage has been through post-production. Just have a look at how terrible all actors look in their superheroes suits during shooting. Then compare those shots of them on set to how incredible they look in the final movie or TV show.

Deadline has reported that Disney is actually looking at releasing the likes of Cruella, Peter Pan and Wendy and Pinocchio on Disney Plus instead. This comes after there’s been a number of outlets reporting that Disney will be releasing Marvel Studios’ Black Widow on Disney Plus.

This news was revealed after Warner Bros. Pictures announced they would be releasing Wonder Woman 1984 on HBO Max and in cinemas at the same time – this Christmas day to be exact. This news did come as a bit of a shock to me personally, however, you can’t really blame Warner Bros. for making that decision.

2020 has been a bit of a nightmare year for movie studios and cinemas alike. Studios haven’t been able to release their movies into cinemas due to the pandemic, and cinemas are now heading towards going out of business due to the current lack of blockbuster releases.

It’s a terrible time for many people out there. People are losing their jobs left, right and centre due to this pandemic. This makes what’s going on in the movie industry seem rather insignificant.

However, the fact of the matter is that performers, crew-members, editors, VFX artists… All the people involved in the entertainment industry, from top to bottom, are struggling. This is why movie studios are trying to find other ways to release movies.

It does seem as though streaming seems to be the answer. And given the fact that Disney Plus now has over 73 million subscribers in its first years alone, releasing more new movies on their platform might be the only way forward.

That is the kind of groundbreaking news that we bring you here at Small Screen. I’m pretty sure that many of you have been wondering about that, and now you know.

So, when you think of Scarlett Witch and Vision being intimate together, always remember that a purple penis is involved. That might put you off your dinner, and I do apologies for that.

Bettany revealed this during a recent interview with MTV’s Josh Horowitz, in which they got onto the subject of Vision’s genitalia. Here’s what they said: “Well, here’s the thing. I noticed in Watchmen, they go there,” Bettany says about full-frontal nudity.

He continued: “It’s the size of Manhattan [laughs], it’s a fantastic example of an aforementioned penis.”

“No, there is no nudity so to speak, but I think people can answer this question for themselves about whether he does or doesn’t [have a penis]. Vision can change his density, so there’s that,” the actor added.

Horowitz then asked what colour Vision’s penis is, and Bettany answered: “He’s purple,” Bettany says.

So, WandaVision is coming out on Disney Plus on January 15th, 2021, which is a bit of a delay, but not a huge one. One of the questions people have been asking about the upcoming Marvel show is whether it’ll tie in with the rest of the MCU or not.

It seems to be mostly taking place within Wanda Maximoff’s head, which is why Paul Bettany’s Vision is able to be in the show in the first place. It also looks like this show will be unlike anything we’ve seen in the MCU before.

Paul Bettany was chatting to Collider about the upcoming series, and during this interview, he revealed that it would make sense within the MCU. Here’s what he had to say on the matter:

I think it’s going to make you think about the MCU in a whole brand new way but I do think that it’s absolutely a part of that universe. As each episode unfolds, the audience will be able to peel back layer upon layer until this rather beautiful puzzle box written by Jac Schaeffer and directed by Matt Shakman and shot by Jess Hall will be revealed to everybody and it will make sense. All of the bonkers stuff will be about something.

There are a whole load of Marvel shows coming to Disney Plus in the upcoming months (COVID-19 pandemic-willing). There’s the likes of WandaVision, which is coming on January 15th 2021. There are also shows such as The Falcon And The Winter Soldier, Loki, She-Hulk and Ms Marvel.

However, it’s now being rumoured that there might be another name adding itself into the Disney Plus series mix. That name is Darkhawk. And full disclosure, I know relatively little about this comic book character. However, Mikey Sutton knows quite a bit about him.

Here’s what Mikey Sutton had to say about this upcoming Darkhawk Disney Plus series:

A few months ago, I scooped that Darkhawk was being discussed to be Nova’s BFF in his cinematic franchise – his Falcon, so to speak. I’ve since been told by inside sources that Darkhawk is in early development for his own series on Disney+.

He made the observation that the upcoming MCU Disney Plus shows were very much routed on Earth, and this Darkhawk series would be a “venture into the cosmos”. That sounds like a great idea to me.
