Jonathan Majors Speaks Out on Kang Role and Hopes for MCU Return

Jonathan Majors, once poised as the central villain Kang the Conqueror in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, still hopes to return despite being dropped following a guilty verdict in a domestic assault case. Marvel Studios has reportedly shifted its focus to Doctor Doom for future MCU phases, but Majors expressed a deep love for the Kang role, calling it one of the most challenging and unique of his career. In recent interviews, he confirmed he reached out to Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige after his dismissal but received no response. Still, Majors believes that as long as fans continue talking about Kang, there's a chance for a comeback in Avengers: Doomsday or Secret Wars.

Disney+ Developing New Power Rangers Series with Percy Jackson Showrunners

Disney+ Developing New Power Rangers Series with Percy Jackson Showrunners

Disney+ is set to bring a fresh take on the Power Rangers franchise, with Percy Jackson and the Olympians showrunners Jonathan E. Steinberg and Dan Shotz in discussions to lead the project. The new live-action series, produced by Hasbro and 20th Television, aims to reimagine the iconic property for a new generation while keeping longtime fans engaged.The Power Rangers franchise, which began as Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers in 1993, has spanned multiple iterations, movies, and reboots over the last three decades. Based on Japan’s Super Sentai, the original series followed a group of teenagers granted the ability to morph into color-coded heroes, battling intergalactic threats with their signature Zords.While the series has enjoyed continued success, attempts to translate the franchise to the big screen have seen mixed results. The 2017 Power Rangers film, a darker, more YA-focused reboot, failed to generate the box office numbers necessary to launch a sequel, despite a passionate fan response.Hasbro acquired the Power Rangers brand in 2018, with an ambitious plan to expand its entertainment presence. This new Disney+ series is the latest effort to revitalize the franchise under Hasbro’s guidance.Steinberg and Shotz have built a reputation for delivering compelling character-driven storytelling. Their work on Percy Jackson and the Olympians has been widely praised, successfully adapting Rick Riordan’s beloved book series for Disney+. Their previous credits include The Old Man, an FX thriller starring Jeff Bridges and John Lithgow.Their involvement signals a commitment to quality storytelling and world-building, potentially giving Power Rangers the prestige TV treatment that long-time fans have hoped for.Hasbro Entertainment has been making aggressive moves in the television and film space, with projects based on Dungeons & Dragons, Magic: The Gathering, and Clue in the works. The company is leveraging its vast portfolio of intellectual properties, with Power Rangers positioned as a key franchise in this expansion.Details on the series' storyline, casting, or whether it will adapt an existing Super Sentai season remain under wraps. However, given Disney+’s commitment to high-budget fantasy and adventure programming, expectations for this new iteration are high.As the project develops, the question remains: will this be the definitive Power Rangers revival, or will it face the same challenges that previous reboots encountered?

Steve Toussaint Accidentally Confirms Daeron Targaryen Casting for House of the Dragon Season 3

Steve Toussaint Accidentally Confirms Daeron Targaryen Casting for House of the Dragon Season 3

Actor Steve Toussaint, known for his role as Lord Corlys Velaryon in House of the Dragon, may have inadvertently confirmed a major casting decision for the upcoming third season. In a now-deleted Instagram post, Toussaint shared a cast list for House of the Dragon Season 3, Episode 4, revealing the inclusion of Prince Daeron Targaryen—a character long speculated to appear in the show.The post was quickly taken down, but not before fan accounts captured and circulated screenshots across social media platforms. The list also included Lady Jeyne Arryn, a character who briefly appeared in Season 2, suggesting an expanded role in the upcoming season.Daeron Targaryen is the youngest son of King Viserys I and Alicent Hightower, making him the younger brother of King Aegon II, Queen Helaena, and Prince Aemond. Unlike his siblings, Daeron was sent to be fostered by House Hightower in Oldtown, a decision made to solidify the family's influence in Westeros. Though absent from the first two seasons, his existence has been subtly acknowledged in dialogue, most notably in a conversation between Alicent and her brother, Ser Gwayne Hightower.In Fire & Blood, the novel by George R.R. Martin that serves as the basis for the series, Daeron is known to be a skilled dragon-rider, bonded with Tessarion, a blue-scaled she-dragon. While details about her age and growth differ in the source material, she is expected to be large enough for battle by the time the Targaryen civil war—known as the Dance of the Dragons—reaches its peak.Daeron’s arrival is a significant development in the ongoing struggle between Rhaenyra and Aegon II for the Iron Throne. With another dragon-rider entering the fray, the balance of power may shift dramatically. His presence could also deepen the internal conflicts within House Hightower and the Targaryen factions.Additionally, Toussaint’s leaked cast list hints at other notable absences and inclusions. Episode 4 will reportedly omit major players such as Prince Aemond, Otto Hightower, and Addam Velaryon, while featuring Lady Jeyne Arryn. If Jeyne plays a more substantial role, this could indicate increased focus on the Vale and its strategic importance in the war.This is not the first time House of the Dragon has faced early leaks. Casting confirmations and behind-the-scenes photos frequently surface online, fueling speculation about future plotlines. While HBO has yet to officially announce Daeron’s casting, Toussaint’s deleted post serves as the strongest evidence yet of his upcoming debut.Season 3 of House of the Dragon is currently in production, with a release date expected in 2026 on HBO and Max.Who is Daeron Targaryen?What This Means for Season 3A Pattern of Early Reveals

Multiple sources confirm that Stranger Things star Sadie Sink is set to join the upcoming Sony Pictures and Marvel Studios project, though details surrounding her role remain under wraps.Marvel and Sony have yet to comment on the casting, but Sink’s addition marks a significant shift in the franchise’s evolving cast.

Holland’s Peter Parker now exists in a world where no one remembers him, allowing for a fresh start in storytelling. This shift also means an opportunity to introduce new allies—and adversaries—into his life.The film will be directed by Destin Daniel Cretton, known for his work on Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, with Amy Pascal and Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige producing.Sink has been in high demand following her breakout performance in Stranger Things, and her career shows no signs of slowing down. She recently wrapped filming on the Netflix series’ final season, which is set to premiere in 2025. Before stepping onto the Spider-Man set, she will appear in the Broadway production John Proctor Is the Villain (opening April 4) and in the upcoming Searchlight musical O’Dessa, which debuted to strong reviews at SXSW and is set for a Hulu release next week.As for Holland, he is currently filming Christopher Nolan’s upcoming epic The Odyssey and is expected to begin work on Spider-Man once that wraps.With production set to begin later this year, Sink’s casting adds another layer of intrigue to an already highly anticipated film.

Nicole Ari Parker Joins HBO’s “Lanterns” as John Stewart’s Mother

Nicole Ari Parker Joins HBO’s “Lanterns” as John Stewart’s Mother

Nicole Ari Parker is stepping into the DC Universe. The actress, best known for her role in HBO’s And Just Like That, has been cast in a recurring role in Lanterns, the upcoming HBO drama centered on the Green Lantern Corps. Parker will portray Bernadette, the mother of John Stewart (Aaron Pierre), one of the two central Green Lanterns in the series.HBO describes Bernadette as “formidable and tenacious,” a woman who has spent her life ensuring her family is not left behind. She is fiercely protective of her son, a trait that will likely shape John Stewart’s journey in the show.The series follows John Stewart and Hal Jordan (played by Kyle Chandler), two members of the Green Lantern Corps, an elite intergalactic force tasked with maintaining order across the cosmos. Their power stems from special rings that grant superhuman abilities, making them one of the most formidable forces in the DC Universe.Lanterns is significant for DC Studios as it marks the first live-action series developed under the leadership of co-chairmen and co-CEOs James Gunn and Peter Safran. The show received a straight-to-series order in June, securing an eight-episode season with True Detective: Night Country and Ozark showrunner Chris Mundy at the helm.In addition to Parker and the lead duo, the cast includes Kelly Macdonald, Garret Dillahunt, Poorna Jagannathan, and Ulrich Thomsen, who will portray the iconic Green Lantern antagonist Sinestro.This isn’t the first time Green Lanterns have appeared in live-action. Hal Jordan was famously played by Ryan Reynolds in the 2011 Green Lantern film, though that adaptation was widely criticized. Meanwhile, John Stewart has long been a fan-favorite in the comics and animated series but has yet to receive a proper live-action portrayal. His inclusion in Lanterns marks a significant moment, as Stewart was one of DC’s first Black superheroes and a key figure in Green Lantern lore.DC’s live-action universe is undergoing a major transition. Nathan Fillion has been cast as another Green Lantern, Guy Gardner, in Gunn’s upcoming Superman film, slated for a July release. With Lanterns, HBO is set to bring a detective-style drama to the Green Lantern mythos, a tone Gunn previously described as inspired by True Detective.As of now, HBO has not announced an official release date for Lanterns. Meanwhile, Nicole Ari Parker will also return for Season 3 of And Just Like That, set to premiere later this year.What We Know About LanternsA New Era for Green Lantern
