The additional photography for Zack Snyder’s Justice League seems to have wrapped with Snyder having filmed new footage for his cut of the movie. Jared Leto will return as The Joker but will have a different look than his debut in David Ayer’s Suicide Squad. Joe Manganiello likely joined filming and Amber Heard returnied to shoot new scenes as Mera, alongside Ben Affleck and Ray Fisher. Another cast member of Justice League who shot additional pickups was Ezra Miller, but, due to him filming Fantastic Beast 3 in London, it was impossible for him to physically join the other DCEU actos on set, which meant that Zack Snyder and Warner Bros....

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is just under a year away, but so many questions still remain about the project, including those surrounding actress Letitia Wright. Director Ryan Coogler and the MCU team were thrown a tragic curveball when Black Panther star Chadwick Boseman passed in 2020 after years of privately battling colon cancer. Since then, the world has wondered how Marvel Studios would respond in the sequel, or if a sequel would even happen at all....

Now that 2021 is finally here, the Marvel Cinematic Universe is about to embark on a year with more content than any in its history. Four new movies and six new Disney+ series will premiere over the next twelve months. And later Phase 4 projects are primed to begin production throughout 2021. The MCU’s next feature to kick off production is Thor: Love and Thunder, which will be the starting Marvel summer blockbuster in May 2022....

With Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness in theaters, all eyes are on the Multiverse (and how it could potentially affect the Avengers going forward). It’s been a successful avenue of storytelling, having also benefited the Disney+ series show Loki, and hit film Spider-Man: No Way Home. However, there’s another recent project that didn’t actually go anywhere near the concept: Oscar Isaac’s Moon Knight. The story follows Steven Grant as he comes to realize that not only does he have Dissociative Identity Disorder, but he also happens to be possessed by an Egyptian Moon God thanks to his alter ego, Marc Spector....

The continuity of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is an entirely unique beast. Its scale is overwhelming; stories and characters spanning over thirty different projects tell an interwoven story, spinning into existence a one-of-a-kind world. Just one event can cause a cascading effect that ripples into dozens of stories—like The Snap, for example. When Avengers: Endgame first premiered, people were dumbstruck by how Marvel Studios stuck to its guns and had the world live with the ramifications of that event for five years....

The moment it was revealed that Marvel Studios had changed Ms. Marvel’s power set, many people became hesitant about the direction the MCU adaptation was taking. Not only that, but notable caution set in for many fans. Thankfully, everything has seemingly worked out well so far—the reception for Iman Vellani’s debut has been more than positive. New Jersey has a fresh hero, and thankfully, most of the world is game to see her journey unfold....

Ms. Marvel just finished its impressive run on Disney+, giving Kamala Khan her MCU introduction in a record-breaking time after her debut in the comics. The series had to deal with plenty of complaints and issues from different sects of the fandom, but almost no topic was more hotly contested than the new take on her superpowers. Instead of Kamala having her comic-accurate embiggening powers, which flowed directly through her body, the Ms....

Disney and Lucasfilm currently have fans in a blast to the past with Obi-Wan Kenobi, long before the battles between Rey and Kylo Ren from the recently-released sequel trilogy. With Ewan McGregor now back to play his iconic character from Episode I to Episode III, this show has the opportunity to fill in a number of gaps throughout the entire Skywalker Saga. Obi-Wan Kenobi shows the grizzled former Jedi Master being forced out of hiding on Tatooine in order to save a 10-year-old Princess Leia, who finds herself entangled with the Empire as they expand their reign over the galaxy....

Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures’ Spider-Man: No Way Home has been all the talk in the movie world for most of the last year, and that status has only further been solidified after the release of its second full trailer. With signs pointing to this being the MCU’s biggest solo movie ever made, fans are on the edge of their seats waiting to find out what this threequel will add to the ever-expansive Phase 4 narrative....

After years of trying to get The Flash off its feet, the Andy Muschietti blockbuster finally speeds into theaters in June 2023 following its latest delay. The latest obstacle facing the speedster franchise comes with titular star Ezra Miller, who was recently arrested for harassment in Hawaii and is facing a restraining order from a couple claiming they made threats against them. Miller has been the subject of many controversies over recent years, starting in April 2020 when a viral video circulated of the actor choking a fan outside a bar in Iceland....

David Filo is Co-founder and Chief Yahoo of Yahoo!, one the world’s most-trafficked websites and most-recognizable internet brands. He currently serves as a key technologist, directing the technical operations behind the company’s global network of Web properties; the most recent of these is the “Be a Better Planet” campaign and launch of Yahoo! Green. Joined yesterday by actor Matt Dillon and Global Green USA CEO Matt Petersen, David announced the “Be a Better Planet” campaign, a search for the greenest city in America; the program empowers Americans to take action against climate change and can participate by using Yahoo!...

The next movie on Marvel Studios’ theatrical slate is Taika Waititi’s Thor: Love and Thunder, which will feature Chris Hemsworth’s God of Thunder in live-action for the first time in more than three years. While this sequel makes Thor the first MCU hero to get four solo films, its promotional tour also set a new MCU standard when its first trailer released on April 18. That trailer release date gave Thor: Love and Thunder the shortest promotional window for any movie in MCU history, although it gave fans an exciting look at what’s in store for the former Asgardian king....

Until a Virginia man claimed the ungoverned and uninhabited territory of Bir Tawil, an 800-square mile strip of desert between Egypt and Sudan, most people were probably under the impression that all the lands on Earth were controlled by one country or another. It’s a bit of a surprise that one of the last remaining unclaimed places is not some remote and wild island in a far corner of the world’s oceans, but a territory in the middle of a continent between two of North Africa’s largest countries....

These 6 initiatives can build community, combat loneliness, and stretch resources. The modern age has been called “the age of loneliness,” since people are living more solitary, disconnected lives than ever before. It is also a time of climate crisis, of rapid environmental breakdown requiring swift action. So, ideally, we should look for ways to address both of these problems and improve quality of life all around. I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately, and have some suggestions for community-based initiatives to do precisely that....

Perhaps our perceptions are predicated on the packaging. From an environmental point of view, bag-in-box wine is almost a no-brainer. As we noted in TreeHugger almost a decade ago, it uses far less packaging, takes up far less space, and costs far less to ship with far less of a carbon footprint. It often costs less, and the fancy multi-layered plastic bag shrinks as the wine is poured, so it stays fresh for weeks....

The Internet is chock-full of websites about gardening that you can turn to if you’re looking for garden inspiration or a solution to a problem you’re having with your plants. Unfortunately, the search engine results can be gamed and the best gardening websites aren’t always at the top of search results. Here are 10 great gardening websites, in no particular order, that you can turn to when looking for knowledgeable gardening information....

After what feels like an eternity, Spider-Man: No Way Home has made its way into theaters across most of the world. The build-up to the MCU’s twenty-seventh theatrical release consisted of seemingly countless teases and leaks from the past two years, which all led to the biggest release for any film since 2019’s Avengers: Endgame. After its opening weekend, No Way Home somehow managed to exceed the hype both critically and financially....

While we think that all endangered species are worth saving, the more looks-centered Hollywood crowd tends to throw its support behind the ones that are cute enough (think fluffy adorable polar bear cubs) to hold their own on magazine covers with Leo. Here are our top picks for the animals (including a fish and a tiny turtle) that should be next on the celeb circuit. 1. Egyptian Tortoise Hollywood likes things small–slender actresses, precocious kids, kittens and puppies–which is why the Egyptian tortoise will fit right in....

When you hit the hay at night, is there a cold wet canine nose snuggling under the covers with you? You’re definitely not alone. Half of the 78 million dogs owned in the U.S. sleep in a person’s bed — either an adult’s or child’s — according to a 2015 survey by the American Pet Products Association. And all those dogs aren’t tiny. The survey found that 61 percent of small dogs, 45 percent of medium dogs, and 47 percent of large dogs sleep in someone’s bed instead of a crate or a dog bed of their own....

Marvel Studios and Sony Pictures’ Spider-Man: No Way Home is cementing itself as the biggest movie of the last couple of years, becoming one of the best-reviewed movies ever on the internet. Save from Kirsten Dunst’s MJ and Emma Stone’s Gwen Stacy, the MCU Spidey threequel brought back over half a dozen key players in the hero’s cinematic history as it celebrated the web-slinger’s past, present, and future. Looking at the specifics of who fully appeared in No Way Home, Marvel and Sony found a way to bring at least one character from each of Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield’s solo movies into the action through the Multiverse....
