Captain America: Civil War Weekend Predicts 175 Million Opening
So with two weeks left before the onslaught of Captain America: Civil War, we’ve got some incredible commercials showcasing the Black Panther as well as some great clips showing some incredible team action sequence with Cap, Falcon, Black Widow and Scarlet Witch!
Ben Affleck Takes on The Batman
So the news was finally confirmed and Ben Affleck is writing, directing and starring in The Batman! Now aside from B v S issues, we think many can agree that the take away besides Wonder Woman was Affleck’s portrayal of Bruce Wayne and The Batman. The Collider Heroes panel dives in to a discussion on what they would like to see from the movie!
X-Men:Apocalypse Promos tell of Ancient Mutant History
X-men: Apocalypse commercials and promos have hit the internet and they all hint at En Sabah Nur origins and his place in past history. Two spots also premiered highlighting the 4 Horsemen, as well as Quicksilver fixing the X-men’s broadband issues. The panel goes into full geek mode, talking the latest X-Men movie!
Doctor Strange Teaser Trailer
The first teaser trailer for Marvel's Doctor Strange dropped last week, but hasn’t been covered here on Heroes.... Until now! Like a bald headed punch into the astral world, this trailer rocked the panel, showing us all an awesome Benedict Cumberbatch as Stephen Strange, along with his origin, mixed in as memory echoes as he searches for a new life and purpose after his tragic accident. We see glimpses of Chiwetel Ejiofor as Baron Mordo, Mads Mikkelsen as an unknown villain, and Tilda Swinton as The Ancient One, along with some mysterious kaleidoscopic mystic arts stuff - all ending with Strange entering his Sanctum Sanctorum!
