There’s wild rumours about who could co-star in the Black Widow movie. Jumanji 2 and the Duncan Jones offers up a Rogue Trooper update. Plus, a new Captain Marvel clip, Team Flash confronts Cicada once and for all, and the Nancy Drew show gets a new title. Spoilers get!
The Trench
Speaking with THR, producer Peter Safran revealed the Trench spinoff movie “will come out significantly before Aquaman 2.”
We always, even from the early concept art days, loved the idea of a Trench movie. Then, when audiences embraced it in the movie itself the way they did, particularly that ant farm shot where the camera follows the Trench [creatures] following Arthur and Mera down into the deep, we just knew that we had something very special there and we knew what that movie should be. And consequently, I suspect that that’s one that will come out significantly before Aquaman 2.
