When Disney acquired 20th Century Fox, Marvel Studios regained the Fantastic Four and X-Men. Captain Britain may or may not fall into the latter category, but he's a character we've been waiting to see in the MCU for a long time.
We're pretty sure Brian Braddock has always belonged to Marvel Studios, with only his sister - Betsy Braddock - and a few mutant supporting players likely off-limits before the Disney/Fox merger.
Regardless, a new rumour shared by scooper @MyTimeToShineH claims that a Captain Britain TV series is in the works for Disney+. That's all we have to go on for now, though we'd be shocked if Marvel's MI13 and Excalibur comics don't influence what we see.
There's also no word on a premiere date or the heroes and villains who will take centre stage beyond Captain Britain.

Amidst a slew of projects in the MCU’s pipeline, with ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ being the sole 2024 release, there’s been a shift in focus towards quality over quantity, as announced by Iger previously. However, recent rumors suggest otherwise, indicating a multitude of projects currently in development.
Among these projects is a series centered around Captain Britain, potentially replacing the previously rumored MI13 show.
The inclusion of Captain Britain in the MCU isn’t a recent development, with rumors dating as far back as 2018. For the uninitiated, Captain Britain, alter ego of Brian Braddock, transcends being merely a British counterpart to Captain America. Introduced in 1976, his character is imbued with mystical powers by Merlyn, blending elements of a superhero with those of a mystical guardian. Often, his adventures traverse magical realms, offering a captivating layer to the MCU’s narrative landscape.

Every time a movie buff hears the name of Marvel’s Ghost Rider, perhaps the first name to ring the bell must be Nicolas Cage’s, for he embodied the anti-hero the most immaculately in his own solo movie series on the character. In fact, his performance was so on-point as Johnny Blaze that many would argue that no one could embody him better than Cage.
Ghost Rider in the comics.
But Cage couldn’t have pulled off this incredible feat just like that. If anything, he went to great lengths and did whatever it required to channel his inner Blaze to give fans as remarkable a performance as he did. And these great lengths that he went to have made it more than evident that perhaps no other actor could play the anti-hero better than the 60-year-old legend.

Unlike their golden run on the big screen till phase 3, Marvel didn’t quite replicate its huge success on the small screen, with most of the Disney Plus MCU shows earning less-than-stellar reception. While fans have complained about MCU’s recent catalog being bloated following the abundance of TV shows, Marvel has also abandoned an overwhelming number of TV shows over the years.
This involves several renowned superheroes, including a Captain Britain show, which was greenlit long before the rise of Disney Plus and MCU TV shows.

Back in 2016, rumors regarding a Captain Britain show being in the early stages of development emerged. Poster artist Clara McAvoy claimed she was being paid to do a promo poster for it, assuring fans an official announcement might be heading our way in early 2017 or late 2016. Unfortunately, it never happened, leading many to speculate Marvel might have put the kibosh on it.

The duel between Ben Affleck’s Batman and Henry Cavill’s Superman seems like already ages ago, and with the latter’s exit from the franchise and the rise of the newly revamped DC Universe, the duo’s on-screen rivalry may have ended for good.

Henry Cavill has allegedly accepted a role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Speculations have been going wild as to which character the Man of Steel alum would be playing in the MCU, with choices ranging from the multiverse warrior Captain Britain to the X-Men’s resident boy scout Cyclops. However, a theory suggests that a character closer to what Cavill has played before would be the right fit for the actor.

There was a slew of questionable decisions made in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, many of which have been cited time and time again as the beginning of the fall for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, from turning Wanda into the villain to killing Earth 838’s Illuminati. However, a new theory proposed that from the ashes of the doomed sequel, Marvel’s next big hero could rise, and even make an appearance in Deadpool & Wolverine.

Given that a multiversal threat systematically slaughtered Earth 838’s Illuminati, it is without a doubt that this team would look to reassemble its numbers, with a focus on the threat at hand: Multiversal Incursions and Invasion.

Henry Cavill was selected to play Superman in Zack Snyder’s Dcu, starting with 2013’s Man of Steel. The character was supposed to have a long and dominant presence in Snyder’s Dcu. However, Snyder’s first two Dcu films, Man of Steel and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, were very divisive among fans.

Henry Cavill was well on his way to enlisting in the military and joining the Royal Marines like a couple of his older brothers if acting had not snatched him up when he was 17. He stepped into Hollywood with a role in the film Laguna, released in 2001. Luckily, he caught the eye of a casting director visiting his school who cast him in a role in 2002’s The Count of Monte Cristo.
Henry Cavill went on to star as the DC Comics superhero Clark Kent/Superman. Recently, there has been a lot of talk surrounding his debut as a Marvel character. Although the actor is not opposed to playing a character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), he has a condition that must be fulfilled if he plays a Marvel character.

With only two films in James Cameron’s Avatar series since 2009, it is challenging to imagine the existence of five installments by 2031, let alone two more movies later. That’s right, folks. I said two more movies! According to James Cameron, he has ideas for Avatar 6 and Avatar 7, but there’s a twist. Instead of dedicating the remainder of his mortality to the effects-driven, money-printing franchise, he could pass the torch to another filmmaker.
Speaking with Collider about the Avatar franchise’s future, Cameron said, “We’re fully written through movie five, and I’ve got ideas for six and seven, although I’ll probably be handing the baton on at that point,” he said. “I mean, mortality catches up. But I mean, we’re enjoying what we’re doing. We’re loving it. We get to work with great people.”

There's a reason the young adult dystopia fad took off when it did in the 21st century. After a decade that saw the U.S. waging multiple wars overseas and a worldwide financial crisis, stories centering on oppressive, totalitarian governments and socioeconomic inequality very much spoke to the concerns of young people. While Norman Patridge's 2006 novel "Dark Harvest" is a horror-fantasy rather than sci-fi and came out two years before the first "Hunger Games" book, it, too, was clearly informed by what was happening in the 2000s, particularly how the United States' "War on Terror" paralleled its approach to the Cold War and Vietnam back in the 1960s.
By comparison, director David Slade's "Dark Harvest" movie adaptation was late to the party when it finally came together, only to be bounced back multiple times as a result of Covid-19 before quietly being released on digital just in time for the 2023 scary season.

Filming the sequel to “Avatar” wasn’t easy on the actors.
In an interview with Vanity Fair, director James Cameron revealed that actor Jack Champion, who plays the human character Spider in “Avatar: The Way of Water” had to shoot his scenes twice.

“The beauty was, we got to do it twice,” he said. “So [cinematographer] Russ [Carpenter] would light the scene, so everything that we did with Jack photographically, we did previously with him in terms of capture.”
Shooting twice was necessary so Champion could be a reference for his co-stars’ motion-capture performances as the film’s Na’vi characters, before doing his live-action takes.
“Jack did his entire performance twice, once for all the other actors like Sigourney and Britain [Dalton] and Sam, so that he was there kind of off camera,...

As “Avatar: The Way of Water” continues to shatter box office records with nearly 2 billion worldwide, director James Cameron is pulling back the curtain on how the blockbuster sequel was made.
In a recent interview with Vanity Fair, Cameron said filming scenes with both humans and Na’vi was “hideously difficult,” referencing Jack Champion’s character Spider, who spends the majority of the film tagging along with the natives of Pandora. In order to shoot Spider’s scenes, Champion had to do his entire performance twice, once as a reference for his co-stars, including Sam Worthington, Zoe Saldaña and Sigourney Weaver, and another to actually film the actor in live-action.

The 'Bend-It' Queen Gurinder Chadha is now in India to shoot her next film tentatively entitled The Viceroy's House. The film will chronicle the last six months of Lord Mountbatten's stay in India when the British Raj ended. Gurinder says she has unearthed an immense amount of hitherto-undisclosed facts about Mountbatten's final days in India. "There are the so-called facts that we grew up reading about Mountbatten's closing months in India. But, there are secret documents which I've unearthed. These point to another truth which I'll reveal in my film." Gurinder, whose last feature film a black comedy entitled It's A Wonderful Afterlife was a bit of a letdown, has bought the rights of two very important books to make her Mountbatten film. "My husband Paul (Mayeda Berges) has co-scripted the film with me and I have bought the rights of two books Narinder Singh's Sarla's The Shadow...
