No bubble can last forever — it must eventually pop, as is the nature of bubbles. Marvel has built a vast media empire on the strength of such stars as Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, and Chris Hemsworth, but no actor would be content with playing and re-playing the same role forever. All good (and obscenely lucrative) things must come to an end, and Evans has begun the long and painful process of consciously uncoupling from Captain America’s star-spangled shield and cowl. But a new quote from the actor suggests that he may not be the first big name to make a departure from the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
He’d already majorly hinted that it would happen on Jimmy Kimmel Live, but now Sony’s official Twitter account says it’s confirmed: Robert Downey Jr. will appear in the upcoming Spider-Man reboot from Sony, Spider-Man: Homecoming.
If there’s one thing we’ve learned from our years on the Internet, it’s that there’s no aspect of comics that can’t be broken down and quantified in a single definitive list, preferably in amounts of five or ten. And since there’s no more definitive authority than ComicsAlliance, we’re taking it upon ourselves to compile Top Five lists of everything you could ever want to know about comics.
Nobody’s perfect, and just because the House of Ideas has been responsible for some of the greatest spectacles in comic history doesn’t mean they haven’t had their fair share of awful moments as well. This week, we point our all seeing eye of judgment at five of the worst offenders.
The 3rd Iron Man movie hit theaters last night. I did not watch it, yet. I'm sure I will at some point, but I found it interesting that no other movies premiered this weekend. Why not?
Movie success and failure is all based around opening weekend box office sales, and Iron Man 3 is no doubt going to sell huge...
The 'Iron Man' movies did gangbusters at the box office -- the first one has a lifetime gross close to $600 million worldwide while the second one surpassed that mark -- and now 'Iron Man 3' is looking to make just as much if not more. However, will this be the last outing for Robert Downey Jr.'s Tony Stark and Don Cheadle's Rhodey? It "could be."
A new 'Iron Man 3' clip premiered during the 2013 MTV Movie Awards, finally previewing some of the action in Marvel's lastest superhero flick. Check out the latest footage from the new Tony Stark adventure below!
Marvel has released the first 'Iron Man 3' clip and to our surprise, it's not an action sequence or a big special effects moment. Rather, it's an intense, dialogue driven scene that's a platform for the real star of the show: Mr. Robert Downey, Jr. Watch it for yourself below.
'Iron Man 3' begins production in Beijing today and already there's at least one surprise we've discovered -- the appearance of a new villain for Tony Stark? While speculation about other upcoming superhero flicks like 'Man of Steel' and 'Justice League' have been rumored to feature a hidden villain, the same seems to be true for 'Iron Man 3' now that new pics have recently been released. Click ah
I've been a huge fan of the Iron Man movies ever since the first one took me on a whirlwind of action and wit. The series is a great blend of comedy, comic book action, and geekiness. Seeing the first official trailer for Iron Man 3 has me really excited for the third installment but also raised a lot of questions...
The 'Iron Man 3' trailer. It's finally here, after a number of trailer teasers. And you get a good look and listen to Ben Kingsley's Mandarin, a taste of Guy Pearce's role in the film, and the sense that this is a film of scale, and that nothing is going to come easy for Robert Downey Jr.'s Tony Stark.
