GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOLUME 3 Trailer

During the Big Game this weekend between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles, Marvel released another NEW trailer for the upcoming GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOLUME 3! The third outing of this bunch of a-holes sees the return of Star Lord/Peter Quill, Rocket, Groot (but awkwardly growing), Drax, Nebula, Kraglin, and a time-displaced Gamora, but also the introduction of Cosmo (the dog), the High Evolutionary, and Adam Warlock.

While we know this will be the last outing of the Guardians team as we know it, per James Gunn, it doesn’t seem they will be pulling any punches on the emotional beats and the humor we’ve come to adore from this quirky team. We’ll be heading back to Knowhere with the team May 5, 2023.

ANT-MAN AND THE WASP: QUANTUMANIA – How many post-credit scenes?

We are just a little over a week away from Marvel Studios kicking off their Phase 5 of the MCU with ANT-MAN AND THE WASP: QUANTUMANIA. While normally viewed as a small scale hero (pun-intended), Ant-Man and by proximity, the Wasp, have been Avengers since the first comics published with that name, and have gone on to be integral parts of AVENGERS: ENDGAME and CAPTAIN AMERICA: CIVIL WAR. As we kick off Phase 5, we’ll see our proper Marvel Cinematic Introduction of Kang and a true journey into the Quantumverse, the “basement” of the movie universe.

The real question is not IF there are any world-changing Post-Credit Scenes that Marvel Movies are known for, but exactly how many? At this time, ComicUI can safely confirm that there are TWO post-credit scenes. One after the main credits, and then another after the longer production credits roll. As we move closer and closer to the KANG DYNASTY film, we can’t help but wonder if these will tease that Avengers film, or be more in-line with the light hearted goofiness Ant-Man is known for.

Super Heroes Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) and Hope Van Dyne (Evangeline Lilly) return to continue their adventures as Ant-Man and The Wasp. Together, with Hope’s parents Janet Van Dyne (Michelle Pfeiffer) and Hank Pym (Michael Douglas), and Scott’s daughter Cassie Lang (Kathryn Newton), the family finds themselves exploring the Quantum Realm, interacting with strange new creatures and embarking on an adventure that will push them beyond the limits of what they thought possible. Directed by Peyton Reed and produced by Kevin Feige, p.g.a. and Stephen Broussard, p.g.a., Ant-Man and The Wasp: Quantumania also stars Jonathan Majors as Kang, David Dastmalchian as Veb, Katy O’Brian as Jentorra, William Jackson Harper as Quaz and Bill Murray as Lord Krylar.

THE MATRIX RESURRECTIONS Trailer

In 1999, the world was introduced to the idea and cultural phenomenon that was THE MATRIX. This movie revolutionized movies, science fiction, and swept across the nation, whether you were into computers or not. After releasing a pair of back to back sequel films that wrapped up the story really well, we’re returning to the Matrix 22 years later with THE MATRIX RESURRECTIONS.

The first trailer for this movie gives us a lot of great action scenes, a beautiful return to the world that is The Matrix, and a lot more questions than answers. With Keanu Reeves returning as Neo and Carrie Anne Moss as Trinity, this movie seems to continue the story somehow after their ‘deaths’ in THE MATRIX REVOLUTIONS. New cast members include Jessica Henwick, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Neil Patrick Harris, Christina Ricci, Jonathan Groff, and more.

Check out the first teaser trailer and get ready to re-enter The Matrix this December in theaters AND on HBO Max (ad free plan).

PEACEMAKER Series Debut Announced

Here we are, a few weeks before the arrival of James Gunn’s THE SUICIDE SQUAD, which features the debut of John Cena’s PEACEMAKER character. Someone who would kill for peace, just to let you know how dedicated he is to achieving it. With the upcoming movie set to put Peacemaker in a co-starring role with the other actors, we’ve finally been given an official release date for the PEACEMAKER prequel series, also written and mostly directed by James Gunn too.

Written during the lockdown from COVID-19, and filmed earlier this year, PEACEMAKER will be making its debut on HBO Max on January 16, 2022. The series getting a greenlight shows how much faith Warner Bros. and HBO Max has in the movie, let alone a show dedicated to a singular character. However, knowing the show is a prequel to the film might deter some people from tuning in on Sundays to watch the 8 episode series. At this time, the fate of Peacemaker in the movie is unknown, but we should hear more later.

Along with this announcement, it was revealed the first THREE episodes of the show will debut at once, with the subsequent five episodes airing weekly aftrewards. There isn’t much we can glean from the titles, but its fun knowing it’ll be 8 episodes across 6 total weeks! The titles are as follows:

  • A Whole New Whirled
  • Best Friends Never
  • Better Goff Dead

Catch John Cena debuting as PEACEMAKER in THE SUICIDE SQUAD on August 6 in theaters and on HBO Max (ad-free)!

DEADPOOL Joins the MCU?

Since Disney’s acquisition of Fox several years ago, the biggest question we’ve yet to answer include how (and when) will DEADPOOL join the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Just because he’s a rude dude with a ‘tude, and uses foul language a lot, his movies tend to be hits with audiences and bring in the cash. Despite Disney’s family friendly image, they’ve not shied away from the fact that the box office speaks, and they’ll definitely be bringing Ryan Reynolds back in some capacity.

This week for a promotion for the upcoming 20th Century/Disney movie, Free Guy, we get what might be our first official ‘crossover’ for Deadpool and the established Marvel movies. Doing a ‘react’ video for the Free Guy trailer, Wade Wilson invites Marvel’s (current) favorite rock man, Korg, to hang out and comment on the film’s offerings.

In a fun little twist, Deadpool is played by Ryan Reynolds, star of Free Guy, and Korg is voiced by Taika Waititi, the villain of the same movie. This is not the first time these two have interacted in the superhero space, as they both were friends in the Green Lantern movie we all love to forget happen.

While Deadpool and Korg are definitely having a fun meta moment here, this does NOT confirm Deadpool’s involvement in the Marvel Cinematic Universe at this point in time, but shows that Disney/20th Century/Marvel are VERY open to having fun and gauging reactions from the internet. Even with a few naughty words hastily bleeped out, this video is still a great time and proves that even Deadpool’s humor can fit right into, if not at least acknowledge, the MCU.

WHAT IF…? Trailer Released

One of the most ambitious Marvel properties announced for Disney+ is the WHAT IF…? series, a fully animated show that dives into what I’ll like to ‘fan fiction’ for movie characters. The show will consist of 10 episodes, each taking a cue from different aspects in the MCU films and changing a crucial point in their history, putting them on a different path.

The first trailer for What If…? dropped and gives us a longer look at the show, including some of the main characters, highlight some of the changed moments, and tease a potential team up for the multiverse. Narrated by The Watcher (Jeffrey Wright), the trailer shows us that even the defining moment of the MCU in Iron Man (2008) can be changed, with Killmonger saving Tony Stark from capture and having to wear a chest reactor. How this plays out, remains to be seen!

Other highlight moments include Captain Peggy Carter being a super soldier, Doctor Strange becoming the Sorcerer Supreme, a new/different Spider-Man, Marvel Zombies universe, Party Thor and an Army of Lokis too. The possibilities remain endless, even if its just as small as T’challa becoming Star-Lord instead of the Black Panther. Keep your ears peeled to hear original movie actors returning as their roles in the series!

We’ll be diving into more fun easter eggs and secrets for the trailer, but the big reveal is that the series will debut on August 11, 2021 with new episodes following each Wednesday on Disney+. What If…? is a show we’ll be keeping our eyes on to see if it affects the Marvel Cinematic Universe at large, but would not be surprised if it was relegated to being contained within itself.
