Black Siren is a different version of Laurel Lance. A description of the character in the comics can be read below:

Jessica Henwick (Game of Thrones, Star Wars: The Force Awakens) has been cast as female lead Colleen Wing in Marvel’s Iron Fist series.
Wing is described as “an invaluable ally to Iron Fist as he returns to his life in New York.” She will also run her own dojo in the series.
A description of the character in the Marvel comics can be read below:
“Wing, in the pages of Marvel Comics, is one half of the “Daughters of the Dragon” alongside Misty Knight. She was created in 1974 by Doug Moench and Larry Hama as a martial arts expert who frequently teams with Iron Fist and his own oft-partner Luke Cage. Her specialty is swordsmanship and Japanese martial arts.”
Showrunner and executive producer Scott Buck is quoted as saying the following:
“I’m very excited to have Jessica as our Colleen Wing. She’s shown us that she can bring both a sense of quiet strength as well as an engaging vulnerability to the character.”
Head of Marvel Television Jeph Loeb had the following to add:
“Jessica brings both a youthful vitality mixed with a strong sense of authority crucial to the character. And as anyone who’s seen her in Game of Thrones can attest, she can throw down with the best of them, making her the perfect Colleen Wing.”
Marvel also released a teaser image for the character which can be viewed below:
The Iron Fist series is expected to premiere sometime in 2017.

The decision of the writers to end The Walking Dead’s sixth season finale has caused a division among fans. Many fans lament the decision while another large number back the decision. Even the actors don’t know which character was being killed off because the death scene hasn’t actually been filmed yet.
Executive producer and zombie guru Greg Nicotero (who also directed the finale) is quoted as saying the following:
“We have not filmed it yet and I don’t know if the person knows yet or not. Knowing the fact that any death changes our characters and changes our people in a very dramatic way, what’s exciting about season seven is how a death — any death — changes people and propels us into a different direction. While we were shooting this episode, I’d never seen the cast more energized and more excited about the future of the show. The fact that the world is our oyster right now is exciting time for The Walking Dead. We’re changing the direction of the show and bringing Negan in, it’s a great time. Everyone is so excited to get back to work [in May] to get where we’re going.”
The Walking Dead returns for its seventh season later this year.

Director Zack Snyder (Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Man of Steel) has revealed that more standalone Superman movies are still planned.
“I think if we could get a good script it’d be great to have another standalone Superman movie. I think that would be fun to do. Part of the reason we haven’t announced the stand alone Superman movie at this time was to support some of the events of this film.”
Furthermore, current Superman actor Henry Cavill has said that he is open to doing more standalone Superman films:
“I do believe it depends upon the success of this movie. If this goes well, then we can start negotiating with Warner Bros. to develop another standalone Superman, but they’ve got their plans set out for other stuff and Justice Leagues and various other movies, so it’s about finding the time really. It’s something I’d be very keen to do.”
Both Snyder and Cavill’s comments came while promoting the release of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, so clearly the focus for both of them right now is on that film. Snyder also confirmed that Batman v Superman is the launch of so many new parts in the DC Cinematic Universe.

Ryan Reynolds, who starred as the title character in this years’ highly successful Deadpool movie, has reportedly signed the deal to star in Deadpool 2.
Previous reports indicate that Reynolds earned $2 million for Deadpool. While he was already signed on for a sequel, his agents at WME have supposedly managed to renegotiate for a larger payment in future Deadpool instalments. This is understandable with Deadpool becoming the highest grossing film in the X-Men franchise and one of the highest grossing R-rated movies of all time.
The Deadpool sequel will reportedly begin filming late this year.

Following on from the report of a possible title for Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures’ upcoming Spider-Man film, three more possible titles for the film have surfaced online.
Sony Pictures has reportedly registered the following domain names: SpiderManComingOfAgeMovie.com, SpiderManGreatnessAwaitsMovie.com and SpiderManSuspendedMovie.com. The domain names suggest that the movie could potentially be called Spider-Man: Coming of Age, Spider-Man: Greatness Awaits or Spider-Man: Suspended.
The purchase of multiple domain names suggests that Sony hasn’t finalised their decision on which title they should use.
However, these possible titles could also be in consideration for the upcoming animated Spider-Man film (and the titles do sound like they’re targeted for a younger audience).
Marvel’s Spider-Man film is scheduled for release on July 7th, 2017.
Thoughts on this report? Which of these possible titles do you like the best?
