Newest On Set Images Gives Us a Glimpse of a Bloodied Doctor Strange

Marvel Studios' has two films coming out this year, one that we all know since it is right around the corner - Captain America: Civil War, and the other? The Sorcerer Supreme's big screen debut of course. Although Marvel is well known for keeping most of their films very well protected from leaks and the likes, a video or picture is bound to pop up every now and then and so is the case for Doctor Strange, which premieres later this year.

Screencap: MCUExchange

The latest images to have surfaced show Doctor Strange and Karl Mordo, portrayed by Benedict Cumberbatch and Chiwetel Ejiofor respectively, filming a scene in London masking for a New York setting. The scene being filmed consists of Dr. Strange and Mordo running down to aid an injured person.









The person in question could possibly be Bennedict Wong's character, Wong.
The person that shot the video states that the scene involves a person falling and going through the window. The characters are in full blown costumes and Wong's outfit resembles that of a Shaolin Monk, and it so happens that Wong is a Monk who practices martial and the mystic arts and serves as a sidekick to Doctor Strange.

Along with the video (below), there is also a picture that gives us another look at Doctor Strange considerably higher than other people, (perhaps levitating) and it shows him a bit bloodied. How both imagaes relate to each other regarding the order of events is not conclusive but one could speculate that given the relationship between Dr. Strange and Wong, the former would try and fing the attacker and confront him, therefore to the two leading to a fight and hence the bloodied Sorcerer Supreme.

Here is the video of the crew setting up and filming the scene in question.

The follow up to Marvel's incredibly well received critically acclaimed Daredevil is just about a month away and the marketing machine has started rolling. Earlier today a trailer, which is tagged as "Part 1" was released and as much as he would like to stay in the shadows, the spotlight is on The Punisher, portrayed by series newcomer Jon Bernthal.

The Punisher, a man who will go to extremes to achieve and serve his own brand of justice on the criminals that plague the streets and destroy innocent families. Equipped with an uncharacteristic and profound knowledge of weapons, he sets his sights in Matt Murdock's stomping grounds leaving a path of destruction that threatens the entirety of Hell's Kitchen.

Batman v. Superman Final Trailer

With just a little over a month to go before Batman v. Superman premieres, Warner Brothers has released the final trailer and let me just say, wow!

The trailer shows a more hands on Alfred, assisting and guiding the Caped Crusader a la Jarvis. After helping him infiltrate the room, in what looks almost like a scene taken straight out of Rocksteady's Arkham video games series, Batman jumps into action and goes to work on a group of armed thugs who prove that even with massive fire power are no match for The Batman. The fight scene depicts a more ruthless, no holds-barred Dark Knight doing whatever it takes to keep his city safe of criminals or any threats, which in turn leads to a statement he makes to Alfred and we see his views on Superman.

Along with Batman's skills and some scenes pertaining to his and Superman's face off, we get a glimpse of Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman jumping into action. Neverless, take a look for yourself and witness the final trailer before The Dark Knight and The Man of Steel finally meet for the first time in live cinematic history.

Bonus Video

Marvel Studios also teamed up with Coca-Cola and dropped a little gem of a couple of heroes a bit at odds but realizing at the end that teamwork trumps all.

Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures Have A Shortlist of Directors They Want For Their New Spider-Man Film.

Earlier this year Marvel Studios finally worked out a deal with Sony Pictures regarding the rights to use Spider-Man in the former studio's expanding and incredibly succesful cinematic universe. 
Spider-Man, a hugely popular franchise on it's own right has recently been, in the eyes of many, underperforming, (i.e. The Amazing Spider-Man 2).


The new deal lets Marvel Studios use Spider-Man in any of their upcoming films, but Sony Pictures will still hold all the rights to the character. Although it has been stated that Sony will have the ultimate say when it comes to creative control, the two are reportedly working together in trying to find the adequate talent to bring their proper, shared vision to film in the best way possible.

The Hollywod Reporter recently unveiled that after a worldwide search for the next actor that will bring Peter Parker/Spider-Man to life, the candidates were reduced to only six. Asa Butterfield and Tom Holland have been rumoured for a couple of months now, among them are four newcomers, Juda Lewis, Matthew Lintz, Charlie Plummer, and Charlie Rowe.

There have been ongoing rumours that Spider-Man's first appearance will be in Marvel Studio's upcoming film, Captain America: Civil War, which is currently filming in Atlanta, GA. and is slated for release on May 6, 2016 and therefore the "urgency" to find an actor that will be suitable to portray the teen-aged webslinger in the upcoming films.
Spider-Man is set to make his solo debut in the shared cinematic universe in 2017, and therefore both studios have also been working together in finding the creative mind that will take them where they want to go.

Collider is reporting that the Kevin Feige and Amy Pascal are close to deciding who their preferred choice to direct the web-slingers latest adventure will be. The shortlist that is being reported consists of, Jonathan Levine (Warm Bodies), Ted Melfi (Writer/Director of St. Vincent), who are considered to be the favorites. Also in the running are John Francis Daley and Jonathan M. Goldstein (writers/directors of the upcoming comedy Vacation) and Jon Watts (writer/director of Cop Car).
All of the contenders are able to write and direct and could very well tackle both tasks and make a more fluent film based on their vision.

News regarding the studios' decisions as to who will portray the friendly neighborhood Spider-Man and the person who will helm and give a fresh start to the franchise should not be too far away. Keep your eyes peeled and ears open for when the news drop!

Batman Confronts a "High Powered" Person in Newest Suicide Squad News/Rumours!

David Ayer, the director of Suicide Squad, which will be WB/DC's studios third film in the lineup for their shot at creating their "superhero cinematic universe" recently made a statement on Twitter to reassure fans that nothing has been spoiled so far regarding the leaks that have happened in the last couple of weeks.

Well we survived the streets. Time to go dark now. Remember, only the tiniest glimpse has been exposed. Our surprises are intact.

— David Ayer (@DavidAyerMovies) May 31, 2015

Having said that, Umberto Gonzalez aka El Mayimbe, has gotten an exclusive scoop and the first for his brand new web-site.  Gonzalez scoop regards Batman and a confrontation with a certain leader of the Suicide Squad.

SPOILER WARNING!!

Batman will have a scene where he infiltrates Amanda Waller's office which is inside a maximum security prision, which can only be speculated to be the same prision that holds the Suicide Squad members. 

What does he want to talk to Amanda Waller about?
Batman has a bone to pick with Waller.
You see Batman is totally against the concept behind the Suicide Squad, in fact he warns Waller that he will hold her personally responsible for any innocents The Joker & the rest of the Suicide Squad kill. A warning so stern that he has to visit Waller personally to deliver the message.

Although not a super powered being, Amanda Waller's power comes from her high strategic management, millitary prowess and is an highly trained martial artist.

Given that this iteration of Batman will have him be an established protector of Gotham City and has had several years of crime fighint under his belt it is probably safe to assume that he has had one if not several encounters with the Joker. Also, if the other rumours (yes, the rumours seem to never end for this film), pertaining to the certain fate of one of Batman's sidekicks is true, than we could see where he would get the idea to warn and be worried about the formation of the Suicide Squad.

We have already seen Batman in pursuit of Joker and Harley Quinn and eventually catching up to them. There are a few rumors making the rounds however where it is said that the joker will not be part of the Suicide Squad team and will in fact be their target.
Another rumour going around is that he will be incarcerated for the majority of the film and will escape towards the end, how that will be accomplished is anyone's idea.


This chase scene could be a "flashback" of sorts that shows Batman capturing and sending Joker and Harley to the maximun security prision and therefore "getting the first recruits" for the Squad.

Second night, one good shot of the #Batmobile whipping around the corner #SuicideSquad #Batman #Toronto #DC

A video posted by Terence Yip (@terenceyip) on May 27, 2015 at 12:57am PDT

Previous to this "leak" there was also a video where Joker is in an altercation with Harley Quinn. In the video it can be seen that for some reason or another Harley is so upset with Joker that she actually takes Joker's gun and threatens him with it, not to be outdone, Joker quickly turns the tables on Harley, disarms her and proceeds to slap her in retaliation.

If you like going into a film with a clean slate and free of spoilers, you will be glad to know that Ayer has made it known that all outside scenes have been shot and the rest of the film will be done inside a studio safe from prying eyes. Now, if you would like to know more about the film make sure to stick around as one way or another new information regarding scenes and/or plots are bound to come out.
