Where is Hawkeye in Avengers: Infinity War? It’s a question fans have been asking ever since the first trailer, which kicked off with voice-overs from all of the original Avengers… with the exception of Hawkeye. Since then, the marketing push for Infinity War has moved up to full gear, with a series of trailers, TV spots, and even behind-the-scenes footage. But Hawkeye’s absence has continued, and has been all the more noteworthy given that viewers have now seen footage of pretty much every other Marvel hero in action....

Avengers 4 is going to be a massive movie in just about every sense of the word. It’s being billed as the finale of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s unprecedented 22-movie arc and the expected cast will make Infinity War look moderate by comparison. That said, perhaps the most exciting thing is that it offers the MCU the chance to fix its myriad of timeline plot holes that have been created over the past ten years....

For quite a few years now, Sony has been promising the arrival of a live-action film based on Mattel’s hugely popular Barbie doll. Since first announcing their intention to bring Barbie to life on the big screen back in 2009, the project has taken a variety of different directions in terms of its script. At one point, Oscar-winning screenwriter Diablo Cody (Juno, Jennifer’s Body) took a shot at rewriting what Sony had, but since that time the project’s been handed off to numerous other writers and not much has been said about the film’s progress....

Anna Kendrick has shared a photo of her costume as Santa Claus’s daughter from her forthcoming festive Disney comedy.

Anne Hathaway is in talks to star in the upcoming movie adaptation of Cats. When acquiring the rights for a film, there are no guarantees for when that film will be produced and released. This has been the case for the highly successful Broadway show and highly anticipated film adaptation Cats. Purchased by Universal Pictures in 2016, there was high anticipation following the announcement of Academy Award winning director Tom Hooper, who had won for his film The King’s Speech in 2011, to direct the scripted adaptation of Cats from screenwriter Lee Hall (Billy Elliot)....

This year’s E3 was a big one for Electronic Arts. Major announcements took place, such as the reveal of gameplay for Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, as well as a wealth of new EA Originals. There was one game that was noticeable in its absence, though: BioWare’s Anthem. The fact that the title barely had a look-in was extremely disappointing. Although there were plenty of aspects of this year’s E3 that gamers felt underwhelmed by, such as the lack of a Sony presentation and a severe shortage of actual gameplay footage, the no-show of Anthem might be the worst of the lot....

Aquaman will wear a comic accurate gold and green suit in his solo movie, instead of the darker armor that we saw in Justice League - but that doesn’t mean Warner Bros. is trying to retcon the character. Aquaman is the first DC Extended Universe entry since last year’s Justice League, in which Warner Bros. tried to pivot from the grim intensity and melodrama of Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel and Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice to something more light-hearted and fun, bringing in The Avengers director Joss Whedon for heavy reshoots....

Marvel is yet to officially announce the title of Avengers 4, but fans are increasingly becoming convinced that the film is called Avengers: End Game. In theory, Marvel is keeping the title quiet because it’s a spoiler of some kind, and they’re not ready to reveal it just yet. The studio’s hope is that attention won’t be focused on next year’s Avengers film, but instead on the next two movies to be released, Ant-Man & the Wasp and Captain Marvel....
