First AGENT CARTER TV Spot

0

The first TV spot for AGENT CARTER has aired somewhere during a football game, presumably ABC. We didn’t catch it, but someone with a camera phone ready sure did. I thought this would be released officially before it aired, but whatever Marvel. You’re busy planning the next 5 years of Cinematic Universe, including the INHUMANS (which we totally called btw).

Our first official synopsis and cast list was recently released from Marvel, giving us a look at who will be playing big roles in SHIELD’s early days, as well as life post-Captain America for Peggy Carter.

Take a look at this camera version of the AGENT CARTER TV spot and let us know if you’ll be tuning in during 2015 for this show. We’ll be there, rooting for Peggy in her 1940’s glory!

 Update: Official trailer has been released on ABC and twitter!

 

Marvel vs DC: Movie Release Dates

0

Now that we know how we’re going to be spending our time for the next 5 years, lets take a look at how these movies line up. DC announced their movies a few weeks ago through 2020 and now Marvel has their films through 2019 booked. Needless to say, its going to be interesting to see DC try to catch up to Marvel, but perhaps Marvel’s biggest risk is bringing in new franchises every year, sometimes even twice.

Use the following list to follow Marvel Vs. DC at the box office. It is worth noting this does NOT include Fox or Sony’s movies, as they’ve not planned out this far ahead and we honestly don’t care about their movies. JK! But we’ll add them as they release.

Marvel’s AGENT CARTER Synopsis and Cast List

1

Marvel is moving quick with their TV shows, with AGENTS OF SHIELD season 2 kicking off to a strong start and only getting better, they’re not slowing down on AGENT CARTER.

AGENT CARTER is a spin off of a Marvel One-Shot, also titled Agent Carter, which was a continuation of CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER’s Peggy Carter character. From supporting character to starring in a TV Show, Peggy has come a long way and is looking to be Marvel’s first female led project.

To kick off the show, Marvel has released their official synopsis for the show as well as letting us know that AGENT CARTER will premier in 2015. Thats a little longer than we had hoped, especially after seeing Peggy return twice in 2014, once in THE WINTER SOLDIER and again during the first episode of AGENTS OF SHIELD season 2.

Read the following release from Marvel and come back as we get exited for their 2015 releases, including the return of AGENT CARTER, the Avengers assembling in AGE OF ULTRON, a DAREDEVIL reboot, and their newest hero, ANT-MAN. (Crossing our fingers for AGENTS OF SHIELD season 3.)

[alert variation=”alert-success”]

“Marvel’s Agent Carter” comes to ABC in 2015 and we’ve got the official synopsis for you right here at Marvel.com! Read more about what you’ll see in the series, the cast and crew involved, and be on the lookout for the series debut in 2015.

ABC presents its second action packed series from the creative minds at Marvel in “Marvel’s Agent Carter,” inspired by the feature films Marvel’s “Captain America: The First Avenger” and Marvel’s “Captain America: The Winter Soldier,” along with the short “Marvel One-Shot: Agent Carter.”

Years before Agent Coulson and his S.H.I.E.L.D. team swore to protect those who cannot protect themselves from threats they cannot conceive, there was Agent Peggy Carter (Hayley Atwell, Marvel’s “Captain America: The First Avenger,” Marvel’s “Captain America: The Winter Soldier”), who pledged the same oath but lived in a different time when women weren’t recognized as being as smart or as tough as their male counterparts.

But no one should ever underestimate Peggy.

It’s 1946 and peace has dealt Peggy a serious blow as she finds herself marginalized when the men return home from fighting abroad. Working for the covert SSR (Strategic Scientific Reserve), Peggy finds herself stuck doing administrative work when she would rather be back out in the field; putting her vast skills into play and taking down the bad guys.  But she is also trying to navigate life as a single woman in America, in the wake of losing the love of her life, Steve Rogers – aka Captain America.

When old acquaintance Howard Stark (Dominic Cooper, Marvel’s “Captain America: The First Avenger”) finds himself being framed for unleashing his deadliest weapons to anyone willing to pony up the cash, he contacts Peggy – the only person he can trust – to track down those responsible, dispose of the weapons and clear his name.  He empowers his butler, Edwin Jarvis (James D’Arcy, “Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World”), to be at her beck and call when needed to help assist her as she investigates and tracks down those responsible for releasing these weapons of mass destruction.  But Jarvis, who is a creature of habit and sticks to a rigid daily routine, is going to have to make some major life changes if he’s going to be able to keep up with Peggy.

If caught going on these secret missions for Stark, Peggy could be targeted as a traitor and spend the rest of her days in prison – or worse. And as she delves deeper into her investigation, she may find that those she works for are not who they seem, and she might even begin to question whether Stark is as innocent as he claims.

“Marvel’s Agent Carter” stars Hayley Atwell as Agent Peggy Carter, James D’Arcy as Edwin Jarvis, Chad Michael Murray (“One Tree Hill,” “A Cinderella Story”) as Agent Jack Thompson, Enver Gjokaj (“Dollhouse”) as Agent Daniel Sousa and Shea Whigham (“American Hustle,” “The Wolf of Wall Street”) as Chief Roger Dooley.

Tara Butters (“Resurrection”), Michele Fazekas (“Resurrection), Christopher Markus (Marvel’s “Captain America: The First Avenger,” Marvel’s “Captain America: The Winter Soldier”), Stephen McFeely (Marvel’s “Captain America: The First Avenger,” Marvel’s “Captain America: The Winter Soldier”), Chris Dingess (“Men in Trees”), Kevin Feige (Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy,” “Marvel’s The Avengers”), Louis D’Esposito (Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy,” Marvel’s “Iron Man 3”), Alan Fine (Marvel’s “Captain America: The Winter Soldier,” Marvel’s “Thor”), Joe Quesada (“Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.,” “Marvel’s Avengers Assemble”), Stan Lee (“Spider-Man,” “Iron Man,” “The Incredible Hulk”) and Jeph Loeb (“Smallville,” “Lost,” “Heroes”) are executive producers.  “Marvel’s Agent Carter” is produced by ABC Studios and Marvel Television.

We’re never content with just watching the video once. We have to watch it over and over and over. So much, we even go through and freeze frame the footage to get the best details out there.

If you’ve watched the trailer and want to slow it down for your own speed, check out the following gallery of 70 screenshots from the recently released AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON trailer from Marvel.

First Footage from AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON

0

Some GIFs of the AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON trailer that is premiering next Tuesday during Marvel’s Agents of SHIELD on ABC have hit the internet. Yes, this isn’t actual video clips but GIFS of the footage, but its still a tease of what we’ll see by next week.

Our current theory is that we’ll get the footage before then, but we’re holding Tuesday between 9-10 PM EST as our official release date.

The current clips show the Hulkbuster Iron Man armor and Hulk squaring off, as well as Black Widow dropping from a Quinjet with a motorcycle, followed by Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch’s powers. If this isn’t enough to whet your appetite, I don’t know what is.

DC Movie Release Schedule Revealed through 2020

1

Warner Bros. has done something off the charts and announced their DC superhero movie lineup through 2020. That’s right, you can now plan on your calendar when (not) to go to the theaters.

This is pretty unprecedented and incredible at the same time. Will announcing ALL of their movies put pressure on Marvel to do the same, or does setting expectations for the next 5+ years only lead to disappointment? I’m not sure, but here are the movies and their release dates!

 

 

DC’s Cinematic Universe Lineup

Batman V. Superman: Dawn of Justice – March 25, 2016

Suicide Squad – August 5, 2016

Wonder Woman – June 23, 2017

Justice League Part 1 – November 23, 2017 (Directed by Zack Snyder)

The Flash – March 23, 2018 (Ezra Miller to play The Flash)

Aquaman – July 27, 2018 (Jason Momoa confirmed as Aquaman)

Shazam April 5, 2019 (The Rock will be involved)

Justice League Part 2 – June 14, 2019 (Directed by Zack Snyder)

Cyborg April 3, 2020

Green Lantern – June 19, 2020

NYCC 14: DAREDEVIL Footage Descriptions

0

We didn’t get to go to NYCC this year (boo) but that doesn’t mean we’re not using all the other sources to find out what happened. The biggest news so far is Marvel and Netflix’s DAREDEVIL. They’ve given us images and showed some footage. We don’t have that footage, but we have two very good descriptions from io9 and IGN. Here they are!

 

 

 

1. Description from io9

[alert variation=”alert-info”]

The first clip we saw was one of action. The scene takes place inside Karen Page’s (True Blood’s Deborah Ann Woll) apartment. It is dark and green. The whole series is about two green tone down from a David Fincher movie, but it’s still fairly green. And dark. It’s almost hard to see all the action (which could be just the nature of screening dark footage in a giant hall) but it’s dark. Karen gets home and sees the window open, she’s nervous, there’s a spot of blood on the floor (or black good, again so dark). Even more nervous Karen climbs her furniture, rooting out what appears to be a USB port squirreled away in an air vent. She sighs, but she’s not alone. I dark haired man appears from the shadows and just chucks her against the wall. This causes her to scream and drop the USB stick or port or whatever. The intruder grab it, and then takes out a knife (cue the knife noise). But before he can slice up Karen there’s another intruder. No it’s Daredevil! But it’s early Daredevil, pre-suit Daredevil.

The fight, it’s intense, it’s quick, it’s dirty but mostly it’s very dark. At some point Daredevil falls out the window, clangs on some scaffolding and lands facedown in the street. The knife CLANGS to his side, the rain thunders on the pavement. All the sounds are heightened. And then BOOM you’re back in time. Daredevil is having a flashback. Everything has a yellow hue. Little Matty Murdock is asleep at a kitchen table and his Dad wakes him. He tells him to study so he won’t end up “like him.” He holds a bag of frozen vegetables to his face. He’s been beaten, bad. His boy feels his bruises. And his father says, “Come on Matty get to work.” Those words spring modern day Daredevil to life. He pushes himself up black rain falls off his head, but red back light blood pours from his mouth. Then Daredevil beats the ever loving shit out of the intruder. It’s excellent.

The second scene showcased Rosario Dawson and Charlie Cox’s banter. Murdock wakes up in Claire’s apartment on her couch. It’s quick and fast but it’s good. Fairly believable for the situation that is being showcased. When Murdock freaks out (being blind and on a stranger’s couch) she fires right back at him. Somehow Claire fished Murdock out of the trash and now wants to know, “how a blind man in a mask ends up beaten half to death in my dumpster?” Murdock has other concerns, “you’ve seen my face.” He states and refuses to tell her his name. Claire is nonplussed, “I’m not looking for some guy to die on my couch on the night off.” They do the whole “the less you know about me the better” exchange and Claire settles on calling him Mike because, “a guy I used to date turns out he was very good at keeping secrets too. It’s quick, it’s good, it’s still in that green filter but that pace is great.A lighter clip this short moment showed the softer side. Murdock in his day role as lawyer for Nelson and Murdock. And Cox goes full dorky Murdock in it. Sure he’s charming but he’s not too charming. Together Murdock, Nelson meet (and are fed) but Karen Page. It’s her thank you for getting her out of jail. She’s feeding them and basically asking how she can help. They all decide by joining the tiny firm. It’s cute. Very cute.

[/alert]

2. IGN Description

[alert variation=”alert-info”]

It begins with Karen Page coming to her apartment on a rainy night. The door’s ajar and all the lights are out. She enters gingerly, noticing blood stain on the floor. Understandably panicked, she reaches up into a vent to retrieve a cell phone stashed inside. As she turns to hightail it out of there, a man steps out from the shadows. It’s Wesley who proceeds to throw her into the wall a couple of times, knocking her for a loop. He retrieves the phone she dropped in the struggle, whips out a switch blade and approaches her for the kill.
That’s when we see Matt Murdock — dressed in his black pro to-Daredevil suit straight out of Man Without Fear — enter and immediately start brawling with Wesley. The fight is incredibly brutal and vicious, very much like the hand-to-hand combat scene in the Bourne films or the recent Bond movies. The sounds of punches, knife slashes, grunts, and damage act as the soundtrack. Matt and Wesley’s brawl leads to them crashing out of the window together and down to the alley below. Matt tries to get up but he passes out face down on the road as the rain drenches him.
At the end of the panel, they showed us an extended version of this scene that fades to Matt dreaming of himself as a little boy sitting in the kitchen of his apartment with his dad, Battlin’ Jack Murdock. He tells his tired son to keep up his studies so he doesn’t end up like him. “I never studied. Look at how I turned out,” said Jack, immediately noticing the sad look on his blind son’s face. He takes the boy’s hands and lets him feel the lumps and wounds on his battered face. “Come on, Matty. Get to work,” said Jack and the scene cuts back to Daredevil waking up in alley just as Wesley attacks him with his knife. A brutal brawl in the rain ensues, ending with Matt wrapping Wesley up in a chain he’d heard jangling. Matt retrieves Karen’s phone off Wesley just as Karen shows up, shocked at this black-clad rescuer. Daredevil tells Karen he will take this phone and the data on it to people who can help, but she pleads for him not to take it to police because no one can be trusted.

The next scene showed Matt waking Matt waking up on Claire’s couch, his mask removed. (He refers to his costume as “a work in progress.”) She’d found him in a dumpster. He is injured (three broken ribs, a puncture wound on his side, and probable concussion). He’s not happy that she’s seen his face, but asks her why she didn’t just call the police. She said has her own reasons for not calling cops. Not getting much in the way of useful information from Matt about who he is, she nicknames him Mike because he reminds her of an ex who kept secrets. She’ll let him rest there for the night.
The next clip showed Wilson Fisk at an art gallery where he first meets Vanessa, the woman who will one day become his wife. He’s staring at white painting, his hulking frame and bald dome seen from behind as Vanessa approaches him. She tries making small talk with him (it appears it’s her art gallery or she works there). Fisk seems agitated not by her but by the painting. She asked him what he sees in the painting, how it makes him feel. “It makes me feel alone,” Fisk replied, far more vulnerable than you could ever expect from this legendary villain. Marvel’s Daredevil would seem to be as much Fisk’s origin if you will as Murdock’s as a vigilante.
We then saw a scene set at Matt and Foggy’s fledgling law office. Karen’s made them dinner as a thank you for getting her out of trouble. They said they will bill her as soon they figure out to make bills. She said the meal was her grandma’s recipe and she said she’s only ever make it for her future husband, which causes a look to cross Matt’s face. She says thanks for saving her, and Foggy replies that she should really thank that “nut in a mask.” It seems like no one knows Matt’s secret identity just yet.

We’ve known for quite a while that Charlie Cox would bring the Man Without Fear to life in “Marvel’s Daredevil” on Netflix, but now we’ve got your first look at the actor in character with the first two images from the series!

Along with the first image of Cox as Murdock, you can also check out a photo featuring Matt in his first costume, inspired by Frank Miller and John Romita, Jr.’s seminal DAREDEVIL: MAN WITHOUT FEAR series, widely considered to be one of the most important and influential Daredevil stories of all time.

Combined with the intense footage seen by lucky fans at New York Comic Con, we’re even more excited to see Charlie Cox as the badass Daredevil we’ve always wanted!

Take a look at the first photos from the series below followed by the original image by Romita, Jr. that inspired Matt’s costume, and keep your eyes on Marvel.com in the coming months for the latest on “Marvel’s Daredevil”!
