DAREDEVIL — Charlie Cox Talks Darker Approach and Video of Full NYCC Panel

0
0

Marvel's first original Netflix series coming in 2015 is Daredevil starring Charlie Cox as the title character. THR was able to talk to Cox about preparing for the role of Matt Murdock, a.k.a. Daredevil, and the show's take on the hero.

Cox on production of Daredevil:

"It's great fun, but it also comes with a great deal of responsibility. I wasn't really aware of how vast the comic book world was until I became part of the Marvel universe. I went to [New York] Comic Con last week, and it's really important to a lot of people. It really is. I'm having a great time."

His preparation for the role:

"I've read comics after comics after comics — I've never read so many comics in my life, and we're finding moments from the comics to reference in the show."

The show's take on the Daredevil:

"We're trying to make a show that's new and much, much darker than anything I've ever seen Marvel do before. The concept that he can't stop. He's going out and he's taking the law into his own hands, and he doesn't know if he can stop. He might be addicted to it."

This newest addition to the Marvel cineverse sounds like it's going to be able step beyond the shadow of the 2003 movie.

Marvel also released the full Daredevil panel from New York Comic-Con. The panelists include Charlie Cox (Daredevil), Deborah Ann Woll (Karen Page), Elden Henson (Foggy Nelson), Vondie Curtis-Hall (Ben Urich), Vincent D'Onofrio (Wilson Fisk), Ayelet Zurer (Vanessa), Toby Moore (Wesley - Wilson Fisk's right hand man), and Bob Gunton (Leland Owlsley).

The video contains strong language.


10 Awesome Halloween Themed TV Episodes

0
0

It's always fun when our favorite TV shows give us Halloween themed episodes during this fun and creepy time of year. Some shows offer us real horror, while others use the opportunity to make us laugh. There are certain Halloween episodes that I have enjoyed watching over the years that have stuck with me, and I've put together a list of ten of my favorites that I think are awesome. I didn't include Halloween specials like It's The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown or Garfield's Halloween Special because those was more specialized, and not really a part of a series. You can go through my picks below, and when you're done, let me know what some of your favorite Halloween episodes are! 

The X-Files - "Home"

Technically this isn't a Halloween-themed episode, but it did air in October, and it was one hell of a terrifying hour of television. I mean, the show starts out with a family of in-bred freaks burying their baby alive. This was the first episode of The X-Files to receive a viewer discretion advisory warning.

When a deformed baby's body is found buried in a baseball field, Mulder and Scully investigate a family suspected of inbreeding.

Buffy the Vampire Slayer - "Fear, Itself" 

Every two seasons, Joss Whedon did a Halloween episode for this classic 90s horror adventure series. There were three that were released during the show's run, and "Fear, Itself" was easily the best one. It's packed full of zombies, maniacal skeletons, talking severed heads, and a bowl of eyeballs. Plus, Giles cuts through the entire house with a chainsaw!

The gang find themselves in a real-life house of horrors while at a Halloween fraternity party, in which a fear demon feeds on their individual fears. Anya enlists Giles to help her save Xander when she realizes something is amiss.

The Simpsons - "Treehouse of Horror V"

Every year The Simpsons does a Halloween "Treehouse of Horror" episode, and in all of the years that this series has been on the air, Treehouse of Horror V is the greatest Halloween episode of all time. Why? Because of "The Shinning" segment. This set the bar for every Halloween Simpsons special, and none of them have been able to live up to it so far. 

In The Shinning the Simpsons become caretakers at Mr. Burns' mansion. Deprived of television and beer, Homer becomes insane and tries to murder the family; after finding a portable TV set, he returns to normal. In Time and Punishment, Homer repeatedly travels back in time and alters the future; upon failing to restore the future, he settles for a reality close to his own. In Nightmare Cafeteria, Principal Skinner begins using students in detention as cafeteria food; when Bart and Lisa are about to be slaughtered, Bart realizes it is a dream (but is then attacked by fog which turns people inside out).

Dead Like Me - "Haunted" 

If you never watched the Showtime series Dead Like Me, it has to go on your list of must watch shows. I loved this series, and I wish it would have lasted longer. The show only lasted for two seasons, but it ended on a very high note. "Haunted" was the series finale, and it was incredible.

On Halloween, Rube tells George that there is a reaper legend in which that the reapers can be seen as they are when alive and, since she has been dead only a year and still lives in her hometown, George has to wear a mask to avoid being recognized by someone she knew. There is serial killer loose who strikes every year on Halloween, and the reapers must work overtime to pick up the souls of the victims. The busy workday cuts into George and Mason's trick-or-treating. Roxy dresses up as Cinderella and Daisy dresses up as a cop. Mason steals candy from neighborhood kids and reaps a small boy. George goes after the serial killer after she suspects he may be someone she remembered from her past. Joy must cajole Reggie into the Halloween spirit following a session with a psychologist. Joy and Reggie pay a late night visit to George's grave—and so does George.

Community - "Epidemiology"

Community is brilliant with its riffs on classic pop culture tropes. In their second Halloween special, the Greendale gang is thrust right into a hilarious zombie-B movie quarantine nightmare. It had all of the wonderful plot devices of a genuine zombie movie. I especially loved the Aliens inspired costume worn by Troy (Donald Glover) and Abed (Danny Pudi).

The study group is left to fend for themselves during a mysterious outbreak due to tainted food at Greendale's Halloween party. 

Goosebumps - "The Haunted Mask" 

Goosebumps was based on the children's horror book series of the same name, and for a kids series it was actually pretty frightening, especially this episode. It's easily my favorite episode in the Goosebumps series, which I enjoyed watching with my brothers back in the day. 

A teenage girl, Carly Beth, wishes for a scarier mask to wear on Halloween and finds one at an old store. What she doesn't realize is that the mask itself is evil and has the power to take control of the wearer.

Freaks and Geeks - "Tricks and Treats" 

This is one of those amazing series that was snatched away from fans prematurely. This Halloween special was only the third episode of the first season, and it played a pivotal part in the transformation of Lindsay, when she joins the Freak crew for a night of fun, vandalism and debauchery. It's a very coming-of-age chapter in the story the series told. 

Halloween is coming: Lindsay wants to hang out with her new friends, her mom wants her to help pass out treats to kids. Sam at first thinks he's too old to go trick or treating, then convinces Neal and Bill to dress up and go with him. Halloween itself is a nightmare: Lindsay's going out dampens Jean's spirit, kids and their parents reject her homemade cookies, the geeks draw stares for being too old and then are humiliated by bullies and worse, and Lindsay gets in the spirit of destructive tricks only to find herself guilty of going way too far. Is there any redemption?

Angel - "Life of the Party" 

Angel only did one Halloween episode during its run, and it was "Life of the Party." What I liked about this is that it went for a more comedic vibe than it did a creepy one. The result was not only incredibly funny, but the storyline also opened up a lot of craziness for future episodes. 

As Halloween approaches, Lorne throws a Halloween party for all the clients and employees of Wolfram & Hart, the "interdimensional supernatural" law firm. and even gets a reluctant Angel to invite a powerful demon lord, named Archduke Sebassis, to the party. 

Modern Family - "Halloween"

The moment I watched this episode it felt like an instant Halloween classic. It just has everything that I enjoy about Halloween, and the way it was portrayed in this episode was absolutely hilarious! I especially love Claire’s excitement surrounding the holiday, because that's how I feel about it every year when it roles around. The haunted house that was set up for the episode was incredibly cool too.

Claire needs the family's help to run Halloween smoothly at their house. Jay and Manny have fun at Gloria's expense, and the holiday brings back painful memories for Cameron.

Curb Your Enthusiasm - "Trick or Treat" 

This is one of my favorite comedy series ever, and I had to add this episode to the list. Larry David has his own code of social principles, and in this episode he refuses to give candy to two 13-year-old trick-or-treaters because they aren't wearing costumes. To uphold the Halloween code-of-ethics the girls retaliate by TPing Larry's home, egging his windows, and spray painting "BALD ASSHOLE." across his front door. It's hilarious when he gets into a discussion with the cops about the whole "trick" part of the "trick or treat" being a threat.

Larry offends some uncostumed trick or treaters when he doesn't give them candy. By doing so, he sees the "trick" side of Halloween. Larry also alienates Cheryl's screenwriter friend Cliff, and a Jewish neighbor. Larry also spoils his romantic anniversary present when Jeff shows up to play a round of golf.

Eerie TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE Tribute Art - "Dark as a Dungeon"

eerie-texas-chainsaw-massacre-tribute-art-dark-as-a-dungeon

Artist Bernie Wrightson has created this unsettling homage to director Tobe Hooper's insanely nightmarish classic, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. I remember the first time I saw this movie, and how it made me sick to my stomach. I applaud the film for doing that to me, and it's one of my favorite horror movies because of it. I like to judge horror films on how they make me feel. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was horrifying to watch because of the realism that it had. It seemed like something that could actually happen. 

One of the really cool things about this illustration is that it was first created way back in 1975. It's now available as an art print for the very first time. If you want to buy either of these prints click here. Thanks to XombieDirge for the tip.

SCREAM TV Series Won't Feature Ghostface?!

Darth Vader Sneak Peek in STAR WARS REBELS: SPARK OF REBELLION http://geektyrant.com/news/darth-vader-sneak-peek-in-star-wars-rebels-spark-of-rebellion

Over the last couple of years, MTV has been slowly developing a small screen adaptation of Wes Craven and Kevin Williamson's classic horror film franchise Scream. The last news we reported on the series included plot and character information that you can check out here. Now there's some interesting and off-putting news that has surfaced though. It comes from an interview at GhostFace.co.uk with RJ Torbert of Fun World, who is the person that holds the rights to the Ghostface look. According to him, Ghostface is not involved with the Scream TV Series.

"Please note, that I had been in communication with TWC regarding this and they have informed me, that as of now, and during the initial launch that GHOST FACE® is not involved in the new format. They also indicated that because of this direction, it does not mean, that Ghost Face® will not be involved at a later date. So, there is still a question, to the question. However, as of now, there is no involvement."

I just can't imagine Scream being Scream without Ghostface. It just seems like that's a terrible idea. Tolbert then offers some clarification in regards to the rights saying:

We believe SCREAM is GHOST FACE, and GHOST FACE® is Scream. However, while GHOST FACE® is owned by Fun World, The Scream Motion Picture Franchise is owned by The Weinstein Company and it is their option to Film a movie or T.V. SHOW without GHOST FACE®.

Regardless, we wish them the best of luck and I’m sure SCREAM FANS will check out the series. Who knows what will happen in the future regarding the series and Ghost Face®. Never say Never.

So it's not like Fun World is keeping Ghostface away from them. Maybe one day he could appear, but as of right now it sounds like there are no plans. 

The series is said to center on a YouTube viral video gone wrong, "which leads to adverse repercussions for teenager Audrey Jesen and will also serve as the catalyst for a murder and opens up a window to the town’s troubled past."

I haven't watching anything on MTV since the 90s, I thought I might tune in to watch this, but maybe not if it's not really going to be a Scream series.

LIVEWIRE Cosplay by Dezi Desire

I'm not too familiar with the DC Comics villain Livewire outside of her appearances in the animated Superman and Justice League shows. But her brash attitude, blue hair, and lighting bolt costume design definitely make her memorable.

Dezi Desire has created an impressive costume of the supervillain and rocks it with some cool hair and makeup, perfectly replicating the character design. The bolt on the front is so seamless, I'm not exactly sure how it was constructed.

Paired with great photography by Kevin Free in a cool metropolitan location, this is super-rad cosplay.

(It was hard not using a single pun on electricity.)

JUDGE DREDD Animated Miniseries Teaser Trailer

judge-dredd-animated-miniseries-teaser-trailer

Yesterday we got our first look at a poster and some images from an upcoming animated mini web-series called Judge Dredd: Superfiend. Now today we bring you the teaser trailer! The animation is crude, but I like it, and it still looks like this could be a really fun and insane series. 

The web series comes from Dredd producer Adi Shankar, and as we said in our report yesterday, it was inspired by the “Dark Judges” comic book story arc. It's intended as to be kind of a sequel to the movie Dredd, but it's also a part of Shankar’s "Bootleg Universe" series that consists of "Dirty Laundry" and "Truth in Journalism," which are two short films that riff on the Punisher and Venom comic book characters.

The full trailer will be released on October 23rd, and the actual series will be released a couple days later on the 27th.

JAWS and Other Horror Film Inspired Art by GANYA

Jaws

Jaws

Jaws by GANYA is part of the Hero Complex Gallery’s Imagined Worlds 2, and you can (should) buy a print right here. But while I was investigating the piece, which is a 24” x 18” limited edition giclee print, I discovered that the Catalan artist has a whole series of horror film inspired artwork that is definitely worth checking out. The pieces are all graphite pencil on wood, and the detail work and shading is really incredible. I think Jaws is my favorite, if only because it captures one of my favorite moments in one of my favorite movies. I could never hang Nosferatu in my house because I’m pretty sure it would give me night terrors. Click here to see more.

Bryan Cranston's Response to Petition Against BREAKING BAD Action Figures

A Breaking Bad line of actions figures available at Toys"R"Us, which come “complete with a detachable sack of cash and a bag of meth,” are causing quite a stir. A Florida mom, who is even an admitted fan of the AMC drama, has started a petition to have the toy store chain remove the toy line from their shelves. Bryan Cranston, who won multiple Emmys for his role as chemistry-teacher-turned-meth-lord Walter White on the show, took to twitter to comment on the petition:

Two words (and a video): He won.

Delightful STAR WARS Comic Book Cover Art by Skottie Young

delightful-star-wars-comic-book-cover-art-by-scotti

Artist Skottie Young created this wonderfully adorable trilogy of interlocking comic book cover art for Marvel's new Star Wars comic based on the classic movies. These comics will be set shortly after the destruction of the first Death Star in Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope. The three comics are being coordinated with Lucasfilm to make sure that they line up with both the original films and whatever is coming in Episode VII, VIII, IX and whatever else Lucasfilm in planning. The three comics they are developing are:

Princess Leia #1, kicking off a five-issue miniseries in March, 2015 by writer Mark Waid and artist Terry Dodson.

Star Wars #1, launching in January, 2015 from writer Jason Aaron and artist John Cassaday.

Darth Vader #1, following close behind in February, 2015 by Kieron Gillen with art by Salvador Larroca.

Young talked about the project in a statement he gave to MTV:

“Like most people my age, I spent a good part of my childhood playing with ‘Star Wars’ toys for hours on end. I cried like a baby when I realized I left my wampa figure on the radiator and his leg melted half off.

“Flash forward years later and I get to be a little (pun absolutely intended) part of the ‘Star Wars’ universe by creating my take on these covers. It’s surreal. Also, I’ve shared that wampa story before and fans actually bring me wampa figures to cons. THIS IS MY LIFE!”

The result of his illustrations are fan-freakin-tastic!

Watch Benedict Cumberbatch Give One of His Most Menacing Performances

0

This video is either A) Benedict Cumberbatch in a motion capture suit performing a scene for The Hobbit or B) The. Most. INTENSE commercial for acne spot treatment you’ve ever seen. If you answered A, congratulations… you have no imagination/are correct (however you wanna look at it). In this b-roll footage for The Hobbit: The Desolation Of Smaug, we see Cumberbatch not just lending his rich baritone voice to the menacing dragon Smaug, but bringing a physical performance as well. 

The middle film in Peter Jackson’s Hobbit trilogy has been available on Blu-ray and DVD for some time, but the 3D release on those formats will be hitting shelves November 3rd. The final chapter, The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, hits theaters December 17th.

This Ikea Commercial Is A Spot-on Parody of Stanley Kubrick’s THE SHINING

There’s something really bizarre about walking through the Ikea showroom. On one hand, it’s really nice because it gives you a much better sense of the size of the furniture and how those pieces would look in the home or combined with other decor. But it’s also like walking through a rapidly changing, disjointed dream where nothing is functional, you can’t read names, and everything smells like meatballs. After watching this Ikea Halloween commercial, you’ll get an even more unsettling feeling the next time you peruse the mega furniture retailer. The commercial parodies Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining, and they absolutely nail their version of that amazing tracking shot that follows Danny as he rides his tricycle through The Overlook Hotel. I've included the original scene below the commercial for comparison.

THE FLASH Videos Introduce New Character, Develop Old Characters

0

Do you guys love The Flash? I love The Flash. I have been waiting since Comic-Con to tell you how much I love The Flash. I have brooding emo superhero fatigue, and The Flash is such a breath of fresh air. I’m not saying there isn’t a place on the superhero shelf for The Dark Knight, because obviously there is. The Dark Knight is the greatest. But lately tortured seems to be the default for superhero movies, and The Flash is so optimistic. It just makes me happy to watch it. End rant.

The Flash airs on Tuesday nights, so a new episode is almost here, but to bring a little joy to your life before then, you can check out these swell videos. The first features the introduction of Ronnie Raymond, Caitlin Snow’s fiancé who died in the thunderstorm that supercharged Barry. Although this scene is a flashback, I have the feeling Ronnie might not be as dead as Caitlin thinks. If you think Ronnie looks kinda like the Arrow in a bad disguise, that’s because he is played by Robbie Amell, Stephen Amell’s cousin.

The rest of the videos are interviews with supporting actors on The Flash — Tom Cavanagh, Jesse L. Martin, and Carlos Valdes. Valdes talks about funky flavor, and it is hilarious for reasons that reason cannot know.

Real-Life Magnetic Field Hoverboard (No, Really)

We’re exactly one year away from the date (10/21/2015) that Marty McFly arrives in the future in Back to the Future Part II, yet we’re still no closer to having flying cars, rehydratable pizza, or 19 Jaws films. However, BTTF's most sought after and hoax-worthy object, the Hoverboard, is now (kind of) a reality. Hendo Hoverboard has launched a Kickstarter campaign for their board that uses four magnetic field inducing engines to levitate. This only gets you about an inch off the ground, but that still counts, right? The other catch is, the board only hovers on non-ferromagnetic surfaces like copper and aluminum. So on top of having to dish out $10,000 for the board itself, you’d have to also build a metal ramp to actually enjoy the thing. If you don’t have 10+ grand lying around, a 5-minute ride will cost you $100, and you can ride it for an hour for $1,000. $299 will get you a developer's kit that comes with one of their engines. A reporter at Engadget got to ride on of these bad boys, and you can read his report here. To see the thing in action, watch Hendo’s Kickstarter video below. As an avid skater, this is something that I’d definitely love to experience. I still have my fingers crossed on those pizzas as well.

For those of you who are excited to get your first glimpse at the highly anticipated Avengers sequel, make sure to tune in on Tuesday, October 28th at 9pm ET/PT. I have no idea what they'll show, but it may be along the same lines of what Marvel showed fans at San Diego Comic-Con earlier this year.

When Tony Stark tries to jumpstart a dormant peacekeeping program, things go awry and Earth's Mightiest Heroes, including Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, The Incredible Hulk, Black Widow and Hawkeye, are put to the ultimate test as the fate of the planet hangs in the balance. As the villainous Ultron emerges, it is up to The Avengers to stop him from enacting his terrible plans, and soon uneasy alliances and unexpected action pave the way for an epic and unique global adventure.
The movie stars Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man; Chris Evans as Captain America; Chris Hemsworth as Thor; Mark Ruffalo as The Hulk; Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow; Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye; Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury; and Cobie Smulders as Agent Maria Hill. Together they must take down James Spader's villain Ultron, a terrifying technological villain who is hell bent human extinction. As the team's adventure plays out, they come across two mysterious and powerful characters, Wanda Maximoff, who is played by Elizabeth Olsen, and Pietro Maximoff, who is being played by Aaron Taylor-Johnson. They also meet Vision, played by  Paul Bettany

Avengers: Age of Ultron hits the big screen May 1st, 2015.

I don't know what happened, but all of a sudden my kids are too scared to watch Tim Burton's Nightmare Before Christmas. This is a movie I watch every year with them, and when I went to watch it with them this year, they freaked out! What gives? I have no idea what happened between last year and this year, but it's weird. Anyway, artist Ceasar Muyuela, a.k.a. wizyakuza, created this great piece of fan art for the Halloween season of a sinister-looking Jack Skellington with a menacing, flaming pumpkin. 


Disney Loses JOHN CARTER Rights, But More Movies Will Come

disney-looses-john-carter-rights-but-more-movies-will-come

It's not surprising that Disney let the rights to Edgar Rice Burroughs' classic sci-fi fantasy series John Carter of Mars lapse and revert back to the original owners, Edgar Rice Burroughs Inc. After all, the movie was a huge box office failure that reportedly resulted in a $200 million loss for the studio. That's a lot of freakin' money. It's really sad that this is how things turned out because the movie was actually really fun and well made. I would have loved to see the franchise continue, and now that it is back into the hands of the rightful owners, it looks like we might! 

The company is planning to and bring the character back to the big screen. The president of Edgar Rice Burroughs Inc., James Sullos, said in a statement,

"We will be seeking a new partner to help develop new adventures on film as chronicled in the eleven Mars novels Burroughs wrote. This adventure never stops. Along with a new Tarzan film in development by Warner Bros., we hope to have John Carter Of Mars become another major franchise to entertain world-wide audiences of all ages.”

I really hope that they can actually pull this off, but with the massive blow that Disney suffered with the property what other studio is going to take it on? I hate to say it, but that's a huge risk in the eyes of Hollywood investors and accountants. I really do hope that someone gives it a second chance though. This is such a great story with a badass character, and it deserves to be fully realized. 

If it ever happens, this is just in the beginning stages, and we've got a hell of a long way to go. 

Honest Trailer for X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST

"Journey to a time when humanity and mutants alike are trapped in a Tron: Legacy prison where only the plot of Terminator 2 can save them."

Screen Junkies has taken one of this summer's epic films, X-Men: Days of Future Past, and given it a hilarious "Honest Trailer" breakdown. One of the greatest things that they point out is how similar the plot of the film is to Terminator 2. That gave me one of those eye-opening "wow" moments. It's as clear as day, but for some reason I just didn't connect the two films together. Thanks for the clarity, Screen Junkies! 

You've seen us tackle the X-Men Trilogy -- now it's time for us to take on the prequel-sequel that made the worst X-Men movie irrelevant and the worst Wolverine movie into a bad dream: X-Men: Days of Future Past.

Paul Reubens Says Big PEE-WEE Movie Announcement Coming

0
0

It's been awhile since we've had any updates on the new Pee-Wee movie that Paul Reubens has been developing with producer Judd Apatow. The last thing we heard was back in 2012, when Reubens said all they needed to do was a quick re-write, and that it would be shot very soon. A couple of years on he has told Rolling Stone that there's going to be an announcement very soon, and reveals that the movie will go into production in early 2015.

"There’s going to be a big announcement any minute now…. Yes. It’s been months and months of being right on the verge of being announced… I thought something was going to go public yesterday, actually, and that you’d be the first person I’d be talking about this with. But I’m thinking there will be something made public very soon. It’s going to get made shortly after the new year. I wish I could tell you about it right now, because…I mean, it’s amazing. It’s going to be amazing. It think it first got leaked four years ago or so that the movie was going to be made, and ever since then it’s just been stalling and stalling. So I’m really ready for this to happen. But I’m not kidding: It’s very imminent."

Well, that's great news! It's good to know that the project hasn't died, which is what I though may have happened to it. There's no information on what the movie will be about, what it will be called, or who's directing it, but I imagine that will all come in the near future with this official announcement that Reubens is teasing. I've always been a fan of Pee-Wee, and it will be fantastic to see him back up on the big screen! 

SILENCE OF THE LAMBS - 8-Bit Cinema

CineFix has released a new episode of their 8-Bit Cinema web series, and this time they transform the 1991 Academy Award-winning classic The Silence of the Lambs. When I first saw this movie, I couldn't believe what I was watching. It was such a horrific movie, and it was done so well. That's still the best performance that Anthony Hopkins has ever given. Even in his 8-bit video game form, Hannibal Lecter is still insanely terrifying.

CYBORG — Ray Fisher Didn't Know He Was Getting A Solo Movie

0
0

The 27 year old Ray Fisher first got the attention of Hollywood after playing Muhammad Ali in Fetch Clay, Make Man. Standing at 6-foot-4, a ripped 212 pounds, and a classically trained veteran of the Shakespeare Theater of New Jersey, Fisher seemed destined to be a superhero.

Before he joined the DC cineverse, Fisher was rumored for Star Wars: Episode VII and was even scouted by director Ang Lee for a Joe Frazier vs Muhammad Ali 3D boxing movie.

Fisher likely signed a gigantic, multi picture deal with Warner Bros., but the studio gave him no clue as to what those movies might be. Just a couple of hours before Warner Bros. announced its eleven movie plan, the studio informed Fisher that his character Cyborg would be getting his own solo movie in 2020. Not bad for an actor who had zero film credits before Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.

Fisher on the announcement:

"I didn’t know the extent to which DC and WB had planned on taking my character. When I signed on, I just wanted to be part of this world. But that specific information, I found out then and there. I didn’t think I’d be getting my own stand-alone film. It’s a huge honor, but a bit of pressure comes along with it. My mind is just boggled right now."

On meeting the cast:

"I met everyone in the Justice League except Henry Cavill and Ezra Miller."

A logical guess is that Batman/Bruce Wayne, Wonder Woman, or Aquaman will be Cyborg's first contact with the Justice League.

Fisher on working on Batman v Superman:

"It was surreal. You get this idea of going to work on a Hollywood set as being really stressful and nerve-wracking. But it blew that stereotype away. If they did have stressful times, it wasn’t while I was there."

It's an exciting time to be a movie geek. It's crazy to think we have twenty-one superhero movies coming out in three years.
