The highly anticipated threequel to the Deadpool series, Deadpool & Wolverine, has breathed life into the dying MCU. And just as it has revived the franchise after a series of losses, it has also given birth to a number of theories. And these theories are not just limited to Deadpool’s own series, but even extend to other Marvel heroes, such as Captain America.

After being cast as Rick Flag Sr. in DC Studios' animated Creature Commandos, we recently learned that Frank Grillo will make the leap to live-action when he reprises the role in Peacemaker season 2.
The actor turned 59 earlier this month, but make no mistake about it, he'll be more than a match for John Cena's Christopher Smith.
As you'll see in the screenshot below, Grillo is "getting dialled in" for his Dcu role with a training regime that's made him look an absolute beast. He's no stranger to action roles, of course, and we'd imagine he'll see plenty of that when Flag Sr. comes gunning for revenge following his son's murder at Peacemaker's hands.
"Pleased to announce the great [Frank Grillo] will be reprising the role of Rick Flag, Sr - the role he’ll first play in animated form in 'Creature Commando's - throughout Season 2 of 'Peacemaker,'" DC Studios...

Taylor Swift Is Not in the Deadpool and Wolverine Movie - Main Image
After months of speculation about whether the global pop superstar will appear in Deadpool and Wolverine’s MCU debut, Entertainment Weekly debunks previous reports. It confirms this will not be the case.
The internet has been ablaze with rumours about Taylor Swift’s potential casting in the highly anticipated movie, a frenzy that began last year during her record-breaking The Eras Tour.
Fans have been feverishly searching for Easter eggs, speculating which role she could play, from Lady Deadpool to mutant songstress Dazzler. The excitement peaked when she was spotted with movie stars Ryan Reynolds, Hugh Jackman, and director Shawn Levy at an NFL game in October 2023.
While Reynolds and Levy have neither confirmed nor denied any participation by Swift in the movie, Marvel seemingly has leaned into the buzz.

The MCU has grown big with 33 movies and many TV shows. Lately, the quality seems to be dropping. But still, it’s clear that the MCU has made some top-notch superhero movies.
Fans on Ranker voted for their favorites, with over 200,000 votes. The list has some unexpected picks and some you’d totally anticipate.
10. ‘Black Widow’ (2021)
‘Black Widow’ came out after Natasha’s character had already met her tragic end, prompting fans to rush to theaters to bid her farewell in her standalone movie. The film was largely liked, featuring great action scenes and a strong supporting cast. However, much attention was drawn to Johansson’s legal battle with the studio over its early release on Disney+. Despite these issues, ‘Black Widow’ managed to secure a spot in the top 10, which is somewhat surprising considering the circumstances.

MCU so far spans 33 movies and numerous TV shows, as the universe keeps expanding the quality of movies and other projects generally seems to have declined in recent years.
However, despite these recent changes, it’s an undeniable fact that the MCU has given us some of the best superhero movies in the history of the genre. Luckily, fans gathered on Ranker with over 200,000 votes and picked Crème de la crème movies of the MCU. Some placements are surprising, while some are exactly where you would expect them.
10. ‘Black Widow’ (2021)
‘Black Widow’ was released after Natasha already tragically passed away, so fans hurried to theaters to “say goodbye” to the character in her final and standalone movie. The movie was generally received well with brilliant action sequences and a stellar supporting cast. However, it was mostly marked by Johansson’s lawsuit against the studio for releasing the movie on Disney+ too soon.

Since the most unsettling aspect about Jonathan Majors’ Kang the Conqueror is that he can never truly be killed, MCU thus appears pumped to unleash multiple versions of the same villain throughout Phase Five. According to Marvel Comics, a variant of Kang can pop up at any time for any reason, and Marvel is willing to go along with these variants in upcoming projects.
Jonathan Majors’ Kang the Conqueror in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania | Marvel StudiosThis led people to wonder if a Kang variant has always been present in the MCU timeline, which prompted people to speculate Iron Man 3 character Harley Keener turned into Iron Lad, a variant of Kang. Unfortunately, considering the actor Ty Simpkins who played Keener was racially white, there appeared a casting conflict. Now, Marvel seems to be allegedly race-swapping the major superhero with Isaiah Hill, to fit in as the Kang variant.

Taking over the mantle from Andrew Garfield, the Tom Holland version of Spider-Man took a majestic leap straight into the Marvel Cinematic Universe, kick-starting a new era of collaboration between Marvel and Sony. The entry of the teenage web-slinger, though, happened under the banner of Robert Downey Jr’s Iron Man during the split within the Avengers in Captain America: Civil War, with the character remaining in the shadows of his mentor for quite a long time.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe has undoubtedly noticed a slump in quality post Avengers: Endgame. Most new heroes introduced to replace the Og ones did not work well among fans. While heroes like Shang-Chi and Moon Knight shone, She-Hulk was highly criticized by fans worldwide.

Expected to be the 36th installment in the films from the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Florence Pugh’s upcoming Thunderbolts* is giving quite a few promising updates. Moreover, these updates are good enough to have fans believe in this superhero universe once again, especially after the latest projects from the franchise, some of which have even performed worse than ever before.

2008’s Iron Man kick-started the Marvel Cinematic Universe and 2012’s The Avengers put the connected franchise into the mega-spotlight for featuring one of the biggest live-action comic crossovers ever. The trend continued in the coming years as Marvel Studios upped its scale and ambitions with new characters and storylines, complemented by a star-studded Avengers series, culminating it all with the end of its Infinity Saga, or phase three.

A major deviation from the mixed bag of box-office successes and failures that of the post-Avengers: Endgame movies, Marvel Studios in collaboration with Sony, pulled off one of the biggest cinematic experiences with Tom Holland’s Spider-Man: No Way Home. The 2021 flick not only revived the big screens after a pandemic slump, but also brought the three major live-action Spider-Man actors together on-screen, along with some of the most iconic villains from all of their movies.

Avengers: Endgame sits at 94% on Rotten Tomatoes with more than 550 reviews. However, with many critics turning on superhero movies in recent years, there's been an increase in "superhero fatigue" talk and a general, often overly harsh, criticism of the genre.
However, one person who won't put up with the 2019 movie being torn down in any way is singer and talk show host Kelly Clarkson.
In a new video posted on The Kelly Clarkson Show's YouTube channel, the American Idol winner responds to negative Letterboxd reviews. In the case of Avengers: Endgame, she was having none of it.
"Who gave this a bad review?" Clarkson wondered before mocking critics: "'Ugh, it’s just these big epic Marvel things. These big epic superhero movies.' Fans love them. Not everything has to be Shawshank Redemption. Whatever."

Robert Downey Jr. is one of the most sarcastic and incredibly humorous celebrities in the entertainment industry holding an inquisitively extensive knowledge of almost everything. In short, he is an impeccably witty genius and faces no problem whatsoever in bringing those very skills to light through his characters on the big screens as well — take his version of Iron Man, for instance.

Given the tight timelines and large financial investments, most superhero flicks adhere to a script. But sometimes, a unique opportunity for actors to improvise their own lines may occur during the most expensive blockbusters. Take, for example, the iconic duo of Robert Downey Jr. and Mark Ruffalo, who, armed with their stellar improvisational skills, breathed unscripted life into one of our favorite scenes in The Avengers.

One deleted moment in Captain America: Civil War could have ruined the entire arc of Robert Downey Jr.’s Iron Man. In an earlier draft of the movie, Tony Stark makes a statement that implies that he and Pepper Potts are having a baby. While the characters eventually have a baby in the MCU, it happens much later in the films. Stark’s very young daughter served as one of the biggest emotional factors in Iron Man’s final appearance.

The first Iron Man film led by Robert Downey Jr. in 2008 served as the launchpad for the Marvel Cinematic Universe that became a name synonymous with success. The idea of a flamboyant billionaire who built himself a suit of armor from metal scraps in a cave resonated with the audience, becoming a solid foundation for the superhero franchise that we know and adore.

The Hulk has always been a downgraded version of his comic book character in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Instead of the ferocious and formidable character that we often see in the comics, Mark Ruffalo’s Hulk is more of a parody of the green Goliath as per several Marvel fans.

The series of murder mysteries that began with the 2019 film Knives Out and continued with the 2022 film Glass Onion is set to keep on going with Wake Up Dead Man: A Knives Out Mystery, which has writer/director Rian Johnson back at the helm. Johnson and his collaborators are being very secretive about this project right now, but there’s a lot of hype for it – so we figured this would be a good time to start assembling a list of Everything We Know About Wake Up Dead Man. Here we go:
Title
Johnson got the title Knives Out from a Radiohead song. When it came time to make the sequel Glass Onion, he got the title from a song by The Beatles. So it’s only fitting that the third film in the franchise have a song-inspired title as well. But while Radiohead and The Beatles were from England,...

Despite their monumental success with Marvel’s Avengers films, the Russo Brothers admire the creator of the DC Extended Universe Zack Snyder for his approach to visualizing his movies. Having worked under the MCU and DC, respectively, both the filmmaking duo and Snyder are renowned for their contributions to comic book movies.

Villains are probably the best part of a film these days. After all, they know how to keep both the heroes and the audience on their toes! While there are some villains that win us over by their redemption arcs, others are simply just too much to handle, and Gene Hackman’s sheriff “Little Bill” Daggett in Clint Eastwood’s Unforgiven (1992) is one of those who fall in the second group.

The worst part about the character was that while he was supposed to be the film’s antagonist, he never saw himself as one. According to him, his actions were for the sake of good and the betterment of the world. While this may infuriate the average viewer, this is exactly what Clint Eastwood loved about the character.

Kevin Feige had a far crazier idea for Avengers: Endgame climax inspired by the Toy Story 3 ending. Feige wanted to kill off all the six Og Avengers at the end of the film and proposed the idea to directors Russo brothers and screenwriters Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely. However, they shot down the idea since the directors believed that they could not do justice to all these character deaths.

Perry's upcoming action comedy The Killer's Game, which is every bit as bloody as you'd expect as we see Dave Bautista (Guardians of the Galaxy; Dune; Blade Runner 2049) step into the shoes of an assassin who must survive the aftereffects of a hit he put out on himself.
As per the synopsis, "when top hitman Joe Flood (Dave Bautista) is diagnosed with a terminal illness, he decides to take matters into his own hands – by taking a hit out on himself.
