After a lot of waiting and numerous teasers, Marvel and Netflix have released the full trailer for their upcoming Jessica Jones series.
You can watch the trailer below:
“Ever since her short-lived stint as a Super Hero ended in tragedy, Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter) has been rebuilding her personal life and career as a hot-tempered, sardonic, badass private detective in Hell’s Kitchen, New York City. Plagued by self-loathing, and a wicked case of PTSD, Jessica battles demons from within and without, using her extraordinary abilities as an unlikely champion for those in need… especially if they’re willing to cut her a check.”
The official synopsis for the Harry Potter and the Cursed Child two-part play has been released by Pottermore.
The synopsis reads as follows:
“It was always difficult being Harry Potter and it isn’t much easier now that he is an overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic, a husband and father of three school-age children.
While Harry grapples with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs, his youngest son Albus must struggle with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted. As past and present fuse ominously, both father and son learn the uncomfortable truth: sometimes, darkness comes from unexpected places.”
The synopsis reveals that the play is the official eighth part of the Harry Potter saga.
Ever since the character Hera Syndulla was revealed to be a part of the Ghosts crew in Star Wars: Rebels, Star Wars fans had speculated that Hera was related to Cham Syndulla (a freedom fighter in Star Wars: The Clone Wars). This was confirmed to be the case when it was revealed that Cham is Hera’s father.
While we haven’t seen a lot of Hera’s back-story in Rebels so far, Executive Producer Dave Filoni revealed that Cham Syndulla will appear in Star Wars: Rebels to our friends over at The Star Wars Underworld.
You can watch their interview with Dave Filoni below:
Their interview took place at the recent New York Comic-Con convention.
According to Anthony Mackie (who plays Falcon in the Marvel Universe), Ant-Man and Falcon’s relationship will grow in Captain America: Civil War- which is set to be released in 2016.
Mackie is quoted as saying the following:
“Yeah, our relationship is…yeah [laughs]. It grows in Civil War. But that’s Paul Rudd, man. Paul Rudd and I make fun of each other all the time, so it just carries over into the movie”.
It will be interesting to see their relationship grow after their fight in Ant-Man (released earlier this year).
Captain America: Civil War is set to be released on May 6th, 2016.
The first artwork for the Harry Potter and the Cursed Child play has been revealed on Pottermore. The artwork appears to feature the golden snitch and a child (presumably Albus Severus Potter).
The play is a new story by J. K. Rowling, Jack Thorne and John Tiffany and will be presented in two parts, with the story focusing on Albus Severus Potter.
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child opens at London’s West End in 2016.
After months of rumours, Star Wars marathons across the United States have officially been announced- which will conclude with the release of Star Wars Episode VII : The Force Awakens.
A description of the event can be read below:
“The Star Wars Marathon Event is the ultimate fan experience. All seven movies. One epic journey. Guests will see each of the six previously released Star Wars episodes in digital 2D beginning with The Phantom Menace and concluding with the opening of Star Wars: The Force Awakens in 3D! Guests will also receive a lanyard featuring exclusive marathon art. Coming December 17.”
No similar events have been announced for the rest of the world, but with two months until The Force Awakens is released there’s still time for other areas across the world to host a Star Wars marathon.
A full trailer for the upcoming Ratchet & Clank movie was recently released.
Check out the trailer below:
You can read the official description for the movie below:
“A CG-animated movie based on the iconic PlayStation video game. Two unlikely heroes struggle to stop a vile alien named Chairman Drek from destroying every planet in the Solana Galaxy. Ratchet is the last of his kind, a foolhardy “lombax” who has grown up alone on a backwater planet with no family of his own. Clank is a pint-sized robot with more brains than brawn. When the two stumble upon a dangerous weapon capable of destroying entire planets, they must join forces with a team of colorful heroes called The Galactic Rangers in order to save the galaxy. Along the way, they will learn about heroism, friendship, and the importance of discovering one’s own identity.”
The movie appears to loosely follow the plot of the first Ratchet & Clank video-game. While this is the case, there will also be a video-game based on the movie.
Ratchet & Clank is set to be released on April 29, 2016.
What are your thoughts on the trailer? Are you excited for this movie?
