When it came out, the movie was a big success and broke new ground for concert films. It helped pave the way for iconic films like *The Last Waltz* and Talking Heads’ *Stop Making Sense*, building on the impact of *Woodstock*. Beyond entertainment, the film captured a truly important moment for both music festivals and American culture.
Marvel’s upcoming Wonder Man series might be released as a standalone project, separate from the main Marvel Cinematic Universe. Industry source Daniel Richtman reports it could fall under the ‘Marvel Spotlight’ label, which is used for stories less connected to the wider MCU. (via Comic Book Movie)
Here’s what the theory suggests.
Okay, so I just saw some exciting news on X! Apparently, Alex Perez over at The Cosmic Circus is reporting that Samuel L. Jackson’s Nick Fury is coming back for *Avengers: Doomsday*. That means we can probably expect him to be involved when all these teams – the Avengers, the Thunderbolts (which they’re calling the New Avengers now!), the Wakandans, the Fantastic Four, and even the original X-Men from the Fox universe – finally team up for a huge, multiverse-spanning battle against Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom. It sounds absolutely insane, and I’m already hyped!
I’m excited to report some casting news for Idris Elba’s upcoming thriller, *This Is How It Goes*. Blexmedia announced today that Wunmi Mosaku, Charlie Cox, and Elliott Heffernan are joining Elba, who’s not only starring but also directing the film. It’s based on a play by Neil LaBute and is being produced by 22Summers and Gaumont. This is shaping up to be a really interesting project, and I’m looking forward to seeing how it all comes together.
With fans speculating about who will play the new Wonder Woman, James Gunn has clarified some of the criteria he *won’t* be using. Some fans suggested the actress should be taller than both Batman and Superman, mirroring the comics. Gunn explained he doesn’t think it’s realistic to cast someone 6’5” and talented enough to match David Corenswet’s height.
In a recent interview with The Direct, David Dastmalchian talked about the possibility of his Marvel characters, Veb and Kurt, appearing in future MCU films. He believes it wouldn’t make sense to leave his character, Veb – the alien who specializes in languages – out of the upcoming *Avengers: Doomsday*, especially with rumors of a multiverse storyline. Dastmalchian suggested Veb could play a crucial role in helping different universes communicate, just as he did in *Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania*.
James Gunn recently discussed upcoming DC Universe projects in an interview with the *Crew Call* podcast. When asked what fans can expect after *Clayface*, the co-CEO of DC Studios mentioned a TV series he particularly loves, which will follow the already announced *Man of Tomorrow*.
A new poster for the upcoming season of *Star Wars: Visions* has been released, revealing a key character named Shad-Rah wielding a pink lightsaber. Season 3 will begin streaming on Disney+ on October 29, 2025.
Despite a disappointing second season, *One Punch Man* Season 3 is still a highly anticipated anime coming in Fall 2025. The show is a funny take on the superhero genre, centering around Saitama, a hero so strong he defeats enemies with a single punch. Fans are both excited and worried about the new season, given past issues with the series’ production, but there’s hope that Season 3 could be the best one yet.
