Latest Marvel News: ‘Spider-Man 4’ spawns fast fury as it swings into contentious territory while Disney Plus inadvertently makes the MCU obsolete

2023 has got to be the strangest time to be a Marvel fan since, well, OK, only since 2020, but you know that feels like a life ago already. For the first time since Black Widow released that summer, we’ve only got the one MCU movie releasing, as various other films and franchises simmer on the stove.

Like, for instance, Spider-Man 4, which you’d really think would’ve at least started shooting by now given the enormous popularity of 2021’s Spider-Man: No Way Home. If you believe the scuttlebutt, movement may finally be happening on the next chapter in the webslinger’s story, but a rumored choice for director is leaving folks wondering if Peter Parker’s about to swap wall-crawling for drag-racing this time…

Spider-Man 4 reportedly adds Tom Holland, Zendaya (well, duh), and Justin Lin (wait, what?)

“When is Spider-Man 4 going to happen?” is way up there with the questions most asked by Marvel fans right now, behind “who’s playing Doom in The Fantastic Four?” and “What the heck is going on with Avengers 5?” According to the freshest scoop from Jeff “The InSneider” Sneider, Marvel and Sony are gearing up to start work on the much-anticipated movie this fall, with Tom Holland and Zendaya due to return, as expected. What’s not so expected is the alleged top choice to direct — Fast & Furious veteran Justin Lin. Naturally the MCU potentially borrowing from the infamous action saga is ruffling some feathers, but let’s just see how this plays out before we start preparing ourselves for the next Spidey flick ending with Peter and friends having a cookout in their backyard.

X-Men ’97 is so good it will have you wondering whether we even need the MCU anymore

Guys, we’re three episodes in now, and I just need to make this abundantly clear: if you’re not watching X-Men ’97, you are seriously missing out. With its commitment to slightly soapy but effective character development and interpersonal relationships and telling stories with a healthy socio-political undertone, it’s the most authentic portrayal of the X-Men we’ve had on screen since, well, the ’90s X-Men animated series. Given that this is the very first Marvel Studios production not to take place in the MCU, and it’s the first Marvel project in a while that really feels connected to the comics, it almost makes you wonder whether Kevin Feige should just ditch the whole MCU concept overall and simply return to old legacy universes instead. Oh, wait, what’s coming next, the Fox-inspired Deadpool 3? I rest my case…

“Why do I have to have a Marvel [movie] that’s all women?”: Disney bully Nelson Peltz blasts “woke” MCU movies

Notorious billionaire, Trump supporter, and father-in-law to Brooklyn Beckham Nelson Peltz is currently trying to lobby his way onto the Disney board, despite admitting that he has no experience in the media. As for why you should be worried about him getting sway within the studio, Peltz has publicly bellyached about Marvel’s increasing commitment to diversity and not having a white male lead every time. “Why do I have to have a Marvel [movie] that’s all women?” Peltz said to The Financial Times. “Not that I have anything against women, but why do I have to do that? Why can’t I have Marvels that are both? Why do I need an all-Black cast?” Presumably, he’s talking about The Marvels and Black Panther, neither of which, FYI, feature all-female or all-Black casts. Presumably he’d like Disney to make great movies like his daughter, actress Nicola Peltz, star of (*checks notes*)… Transformers: Age of Extinction and The Last Airbender.

Aditi Rao Hydari has recently captured the internet’s attention with her mesmerizing ‘gajagamini walk’ from Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Netflix series, Heeramandi. The actor’s graceful performance in the song ‘Saiyaan Hatto Jaao’ has received widespread acclaim, prompting her to express gratitude towards her fans for their love and praise.

How did Aditi Rao Hydari create her viral walk in Heeramandi?

Aditi Rao Hydari recently shared how she feels deeply moved by the positive response to her performance. In a recent interview, she shared her feelings about the unexpected yet heartwarming reaction from the audience. “I am thanking everybody. That walk, just that little tukda from thumri, it is all over the internet. I really didn’t expect that and Sanjay sir did say, ‘Ye chaal bahut important hai (This walk is very important),’” Aditi said. She further reflected on the effort and dedication that went into perfecting the walk, which has now become iconic.

The Heeramandi actor provided a glimpse into the meticulous process behind the creation of the song, highlighting Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s deep involvement in every detail. The dance choreographer was Kruti Mahesh. Despite this, Bhansali engrossed himself in every aspect of the song’s choreography.

“Kruti Mahesh was there choreographing, but he was completely involved in every detail of the choreography. He was very particular about this walk and how it should happen. How will the dupatta fall, how will the waist move. Exactly when the ‘chan’ sound will be heard… it was quite incredible,” Aditi elaborated. This attention to detail is a hallmark of Bhansali’s work, ensuring that every movement, gesture, and nuance contributes to the overall impact of the scene.

For those unaware, Netflix recently released much-awaited, Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar on May 1, 2024. Since then, Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s OTT debut has garnered widespread acclaim for its grandeur, stellar performances, and storyline. It is currently available to stream on Netflix.

‘X-Men ’97’ season finale ending and post-credits scene, explained

Warning: This article contains full spoilers for X-Men ’97 episode 10.

There goes, X-Men ’97 season 1 — easily one of the finest stories Marvel Studios has ever told. Rarely has the studio behind the MCU delivered something both so authentic to its source material and celebratory of these characters and the universe they inhabit.

The bad news? This run of 10 terrific episodes, uncanny in how astonishing they were (see what I did there?), has now come to a close. The good news? This definitely isn’t the end of the road as a second season is on the way. As promised by the finale’s open-ended conclusion and, of course, a post-credits scene teasing what’s coming next.

So what happens in the last scenes of X-Men ’97‘s finale and what does it all mean?

Where are the X-Men?

“Tolerance is Extinction, Part 3” picks up right where we left off, with the X-Men trying to stop Magneto and Bastion’s competing plans to end life on Earth.

After the X-Men succeed in destroying Bastion’s Asteroid M, before it collides with the planet, the team are missing and presumed dead in the explosion. Forge searches for months for any trace of them — specifically, Storm — but to no avail. Finally, Bishop visits him and reveals the truth: someone, or something, saved the X-Men by flinging them somewhere (or somewhen) else in time. Bishop recruits Forge to help track the time-displaced X-Men down.

In 3000 BC Egypt, Rogue, Nightcrawler, Beast, Magneto, and Professor X fight off some ancient Egyptian guards and are aided by a mysterious masked figure. Once they fight is over, the gang thank the stranger and ask his name. “My name is En Sabah Nur,” he responds. That’s right, the X-Men have stumbled upon the younger version of their nemesis, Apocalypse!

Meanwhile, Jean Grey and Cyclops have been sent into the far-future, finding themselves in a barren wasteland in the year 3960 AD. They are approached by an elder wise woman who calls herself Mother Askani, leader of the Clan Askani. A boy then emerges from the Clan Askani’s tent and warns the rest that these two newcomers do not mean them harm. The young boy is extremely familiar-looking, what with his distinctive red hair. His name is Nathan — aka a young Cable, Scott and Jean/Madelyne’s son!

Is Apocalypse the big bad of X-Men ’97 season 2?

In true Marvel Studios style, the X-Men ’97 finale then concludes with a post-credits scene. The action returns to the ruins of Genosha in the present-day, where a shadowy figure stalks through the devastation caused by Bastion back in episode 5.

“So much pain, my children,” the figure booms, before retrieving a Queen of Hearts card from the rubble. “So much death…” As a shot of those distinctive blue lips makes clear, this is the grown-up Apocalypse, who seems all set to be the big bad of X-Men ’97 season 2. Even if we didn’t know we were getting one already, the “TO BE CONTINUED…” card at the episode’s end confirms it.

All things considered, it looks like we’re in for a deep-dive into Apocalypse’s character next time around, as the X-Men get to know his origins in the past while he cooks up some evil scheme in the present. The card he finds is clearly Gambit’s, so it’s very likely he’ll resurrect Remy and turn him into one of his Four Horsemen. Gambit alive again? Yay! Gambit turned evil? No way!

With any luck, X-Men ’97 season 2 will release sometime in 2025. For the meantime, all 10 episodes of season 1 can be streamed on Disney Plus.
