Our First Look At The Han Solo Movie’s Take On Lando Calrissian

Han Solo

Ron Howard has given us our first (very tiny) look at Donald Glover as Lando Calrissian, who we can at least confirm will not be a system, but a man in the movie.


Ant-Man & The Wasp

THR reports that Walton Goggins has joined the cast in an undisclosed role.


Suicide Squad 2

Speaking with USA Today, Cara Delevingne stated she’s “pretty sure” the Enchantress won’t be back for the sequel.

It was a life-changing experience and of course I’d do another one, but I don’t think it would make sense for the character. I’ll probably still be on the set hanging out with everyone.


Avengers: Infinity War

According to Mark Ruffalo, “everybody dies” in Infinity War. Of course we can’t know for certain if this was hyperbole on Ruffalo’s part, or even a premeditated joke, but Don Cheadle’s disapproving reaction seems genuine. It’s probably a joke, though.

That said, James Gunn confirmed there will be no MCU reboot following Avengers 4.

Spider-Man

Speaking with Collider, both Kevin Feige and Amy Pascal confirmed the next Spider-Man movie will not contain “Homecoming” or “2” in its title.

FEIGE: It will be Spider-Man “Subtitle.”

OK so there’s no “2” in the title.

PASCAL: No.

FEIGE: But internally we just call is “Homecoming 2” because we’re not …

Obviously it’s not gonna be “Homecoming,” but you get what I mean.

PASCAL: 100%.

In the interview, the pair also state the film enters pre-production next month and hopes to shoot in April or May of 2018.


Silver & Black

That Hashtag Show is now also reporting that mercenary adventurer (and one-time Marvel’s Most Wanted star) Dominic Fortune, Inhuman Mark Sim, and members of The Wild Pack will appear.


Valerian 2 & 3

Speaking with The Nerdist, Luc Besson revealed he’s already written the sequel to Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, and is now at work on Part III.

I finished the number 2 already and I’m writing the number 3. I don’t know if we will do it, because it’s not up to me. It’s up to the audience if they like it. But my friends all said, “Why are you writing the second one? You don’t even know if you’re going to do it.” [And I said] I don’t care. It’s fine. [laughs] I’m just happy to write it. I’m enjoying writing it. I don’t even wait. I’m just writing for myself. So I finished the [sequel] already, and I got bored a month ago, so I said, “Let’s write the third.”


Aquaman

The Gold Coast Bulletin reports construction has begun on the Curry family lighthouse.


Untitled Darren Aronofsky AI Film

Deadline reports Darren Aronofsky is in talks to potentially direct a courtroom drama about artificial intelligence for Paramount.


Black Panther

Thirty-nine new high-res stills have been released. Head over to Collider to see the rest.

Star Wars: The Last Jedi

Rian Johnson spoke to the LA Times about writing the film’s opening crawl, revealing one word from it: “Decimated.”

That was petri… Actually, you know, I just did it. I just started writing the draft. I wrote something, and it was terrible. And then I was watching one of the behind-the-scenes things and Lucas said, “It’s like writing a haiku.”

I realised as I was refining it what he meant. We didn’t finish the opening crawl and totally lock it until a few weeks ago actually. Because you’re like, “Do we need this word, do we need that word, what if we shift.” It’s like a poem, there’s very little room for error in trying to get it just right. Which is awesome, it’s really fun.

It would be funny if it was “poop”. Which is a first for the “Star Wars” universe. That’s the whole crawl, just the word “poop”.

The Wrap’s Umberto Gonzalez reports the film enters production in February.
