X-Men Movies: "Gambit" and "The New Mutants" get delayed to 2019; Deadpool 2 moves up to May 2018

For fans of Fox's X-Men line-up of movies, a major shake-up has been done to its roster of upcoming spin-off films in "Gambit", "The New Mutants", and "Deadpool 2". All three films have been given new release dates  - with the first two now positioned for 2019 and the sequel to the 2016 hit superhero comedy "Deadpool" moving up a month from its original release date this year.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, "Gambit" lost its director in Gore Verbinski, pushing the Channing Tatum starring film from its original February 14, 2019 release date to June 7, 2019. "The New Mutants" - which already had a teaser trailer released and was primed for an early summer 2018 release - gets pushed back almost a year from April 13, 2018 to February 22, 2019 instead.

Finally getting the better end of this shake up, Deadpool 2 has been moved from its June 1, 2018 release date to May 18 - positioning it in between the release dates of "Avengers: Infinity War" and "Solo: A Star Wars Story". The Ryan Reynolds film will see his return as the "Merc with a Mouth", alongside Josh Brolin who debuts as fan favorite X-Force character Cable (and coincidentally plays Thanos in Marvel Studios' Avengers: Infinity War).

Gotham: Hugo Strange cast for Season 2 and to be played by BD Wong

Adding yet another familiar villainous face to the growing roster of bad guys making their appearance in the show, Fox and Warner Bros. have officially announced that "Jurassic World" and "Law and Order: SVU" actor BD Wong has been cast as the deranged psychiatrist Professor Hugo Strange, a man who is one of The Dark Knight's first supervillains. Strange is also actually the first villain to discover Batman's secret identity of Bruce Wayne, but develops an obsession to actually replace and become the hero... Which he repeatedly fails to do so in his comic book appearances.

The news comes from Comic Book.com, and also details how Strange plays into the events of "Gotham" - now on its second season and continuing the series that explores a Pre-Batman Gotham City that is slowly becoming home to the supervillains it is notorious for and the few forces of justice like a young Detective James Gordon who continue to fight for the innocent.

Gotham airs every Mondays on Fox.

X-Men TV Series planned by FOX

Looks like Marvel's band of merry mutants may hit another medium soon... And it's planned to be in the small screen!

In a report by Comic Book.com and TV Insider, there are plans in the works by FOX to bring the X-Men to television, in a manner similar to ABC's Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Agent Carter. However, negotiations are still being conducted with the House of Ideas themselves, who have to greenlight and agree to the contract before anything is conceptualized or given the go entirely.

Rumors are also abuzz that the TV Series may be an adaptation of X-Factor - the government sponsored team of X-People who also serve to protect humanity and mutantkind from those who would do harm against both species. Any talk about this however is just speculation at this point, so we'll have to wait for official word before anything can be considered as a possibility.

Currently, 20th Century Fox is developing X-Men: Apocalypse, as directed by Bryan Singer and recently casting the likes of Sophie Turner of Game of Thrones fame as the new Jean Grey. She'll be joining James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, and Jennifer Lawrence - who reprise their roles as Charles Xavier, Erik Lehnsherr, and Mystique respectively. That film comes out on May 27, 2016.

Gotham: Season 2 officially confirmed

Straight from the show's official Facebook page and making the announcement at the Television Critics Association press tour in California, FOX, Warner Bros., and DC Entertainment are renewing their pre-Batman TV Series "Gotham", which explores the origins of a younger Gotham City and its inhabitants before it became the way it was.

Gotham airs every Mondays on FOX.

Gotham: The Flying Graysons to appear in 16th episode in series

Looks like a certain other well-known family from the city of "Gotham" is indeed coming to the show as it continues on after coming back from its mid-season break... And it's related to a certain Boy Wonder who will eventually become the sidekick and prodigal son of the future Dark Knight.

Via Comic Book Movie and Vixen Variety, pictures from the production of the 16th episode of "Gotham" have come online giving a first look at "The Flying Graysons" - the big acrobat performing family that performs at Haley's Circus and spawned the future Richard "Dick" Grayson - the first Robin and more prominently known Nightwing of the Batman Family! How this is going to play out in the prequel story that includes a young Officer James Gordon is anyone's guess, but stay tuned and keep watching the show to know more.

Gotham airs every Mondays on FOX.

Gotham: Pilot premieres and the "After Show" begins

Finally premiering on FOX and telling the tale of a city plagued with crime and corruption years before the emergence of The Dark Knight vigilante and hero known as Batman, Gotham is a brand new take on the origins of Detective James Gordon, Harvey Bullock, a young Bruce Wayne, Selina Kyle, and many others who will undoubtedly meet and cross paths with one another as the first season runs its course.

The Pilot aired this past Monday, and it's a strong start to what will certainly be an interesting crime-drama series that will plant the seeds for the rise of gang wars and the future supervillain community... As well as the beginnings of Gordon's dedication to clean up the streets and Bruce's eventual rise to conquer fear and become something... Legendary.

Following the premiere of the pilot, theStream.tv has posted up their first episode that reviews and explores each Gotham episode after it premieres, which is aptly titled the "Gotham After Show".

Gotham: Dr. Hugo Strange to appear in the series

A certain doctor from the Batman universe will be appearing in Fox's upcoming new show based on the city The Dark Knight protects... And it's a menacing and manipulative figure that's well known to fans who have read and played the games the Caped Crusader is based on.

On this Batman Day week, Gotham TV Series showrunner Bruno Heller said in an interview with IGN that big baddie Psychiatrist Dr. Hugo Strange would be appearing in the show. According to Heller, Strange is an integral part in the first season, as it not only deals with the beginnings of Detective Jim Gordon, a young Bruce Wayne, and the future villains of the city, but also the foundation of Arkham - the institution and asylum that Batman will send his rogues gallery to.

Arkham City: Crime Alley
Eventually, Hugo Strange's future relationship with Batman shapes their rivalry, as the master manipulator also deduces Bruce Wayne's secret identity. The character prominently appears as well in the video game Batman: Arkham City, as one of the major foes that The Dark Knight faces in the game.

TV Shows: DC orders Constantine, The Flash, and iZombie; Marvel orders Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Agent Carter

Looks like the comic book wave of TV Shows just got a whole lot bigger... And we have tons to look forward to for the 2014-2015 TV Schedule from properties hailing from the Big Two comic book companies, DC Comics and Marvel!

First off, after the FOX Pre-Batman series "Gotham" got the big news a few days ago and got picked up as a series, NBC has officially announced that the Matt Ryan starring series "Constantine" has also gotten the order, and will see everyone's favorite Hellblazer, con-man, and occult artist defend up from the supernatural and forces from beyond.

Then, The CW has also gotten the official order to turn the "Arrow" spin-off series "The Flash" into a series, with Grant Gustin set-on to become the Scarlet Speedster and run his own set of adventures as a superhero! Another DC/ Vertigo imprint, iZombie, has also received the greenlight, in addition to Arrow of course getting it's third season!

On the Marvel side of things, Agent Phil Coulson and his ragtag team of agents will return for a second season of "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.". While the show was struggling with mixed to critical reviews, it has been renewed, and following the changes made after the events of "Captain America: The Winter Soldier", it would seem a wise and obvious move by ABC.

Following this, looks like Hayley Atwell will be reprising her role as Agent Peggy Carter once more for the spin-off series "Marvel's Agent Carter", which spins off the first Captain America film and the short "Agent Carter" that was attached to the home video release of "Iron Man 3". This looks promising and should be entertaining to those who want to see more of the female agent and one of the co-founders of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Gotham: Official TV Logo and Synopsis released by FOX

Following on the heels of The CW's reveal of the full costume of Grant Gustin as Barry Allen/ The Flash in the new upcoming TV Series, Fox has revealed their logo design and official synopsis for their upcoming Batman spin-off TV Series, "Gotham".

Starring Ben McKenzie as a young James Gordon (while ironically playing Batman in the DC Universe Animated Original Movie adaptation of Batman: Year One), the series will focus on his origin story as he works up the ranks of the Gotham City Police Department, while telling parallel origin stories of the city's future supervillains... As well as an orphaned boy named Bruce Wayne who will one day grow up to be the city's greatest defender.

Here's the official synopsis, courtesy of Fox and posted in Superherohype.

Everyone knows the name Commissioner Gordon. He is one of the crime world's greatest foes, a man whose reputation is synonymous with law and order. But what is known of Gordon's story and his rise from rookie detective to Police Commissioner? What did it take to navigate the multiple layers of corruption that secretly ruled Gotham City, the spawning ground of the world's most iconic villains? And what circumstances created them – the larger-than-life personas who would become Catwoman, The Penguin, The Riddler, Two-Face and The Joker? 

"Gotham" is an origin story of the great DC Comics super villains and vigilantes, revealing an entirely new chapter that has never been told. From executive producer/writer Bruno Heller (“The Mentalist,” “Rome”), "Gotham" follows one cop's rise through a dangerously corrupt city teetering on the edge of evil and chronicles the birth of one of the most popular super heroes of our time. 

Growing up in Gotham City's surrounding suburbs, James Gordon (Ben McKenzie, “Southland,” “The O.C.”) romanticized the city as a glamorous and exciting metropolis where his late father once served as a successful district attorney. Now, two weeks into his new job as a Gotham City detective and engaged to his beloved fiancée, Barbara Kean (Erin Richards, Open Grave, “Breaking In”), Gordon is living his dream – even as he hopes to restore the city back to the pure version he remembers it was as a kid. 

Brave, honest and ready to prove himself, the newly-minted detective is partnered with the brash, but shrewd police legend Harvey Bullock (Donal Logue, “Sons of Anarchy,” “Terriers,” “Vikings,” “Copper”), as the two stumble upon the city's highest-profile case ever: the murder of local billionaires Thomas and Martha Wayne. At the scene of the crime, Gordon meets the sole survivor: the Waynes' hauntingly intense 12-year-old son, Bruce (David Mazouz, “Touch”), toward whom the young detective feels an inexplicable kinship. Moved by the boy's profound loss, Gordon vows to catch the killer. 

As he navigates the often-underhanded politics of Gotham's criminal justice system, Gordon will confront imposing gang boss Fish Mooney (Jada Pinkett Smith, The Matrix films, “HawthoRNe,” Collateral), and many of the characters who will become some of fiction's most renowned, enduring villains, including a teenaged Selina Kyle/the future Catwoman (acting newcomer Camren Bicondova) and Oswald Cobblepot/The Penguin (Robin Lord Taylor, “The Walking Dead,” Another Earth). 

Although the crime drama will follow Gordon's turbulent and singular rise through the Gotham City police department, led by Police Captain Sarah Essen (Zabryna Guevara, “Burn Notice”), it also will focus on the unlikely friendship Gordon forms with the young heir to the Wayne fortune, who is being raised by his unflappable butler, Alfred (Sean Pertwee, "Camelot," “Elementary”). It is a friendship that will last them all of their lives, playing a crucial role in helping the young boy eventually become the crusader he's destined to be.

Gotham is scheduled to premiere sometime during the 2014-2015 TV Season.

Gotham TV Series: Ben McKenzie is your new James Gordon

Looks like things are progressing smoothly for FOX and Warner Bros. Television's attempt to showcase characters from the Batman Universe in the small screen, as both companies have finally chosen their actor to play a younger James Gordon in "Gotham"... "The O.C." and "Southland's" Ben McKenzie!

An origin TV Series set years before The Batman came into the picture, "Gotham" explores the origins of James Gordon, the villains/ supercriminals, and a young Bruce Wayne before they all made their mark and changed the city as we now know it to be. It's certainly cranking up the interest rate for the show, and McKenzie took to Twitter to express his thoughts on his casting:

All I can promise is I will do my best not to screw this up. Can't wait to get to work.
— Ben McKenzie (@ben_mckenzie) February 8, 2014 

So here's to "Gotham", and hoping it'll be just as awesome as the current DC Comics' inspired superhero TV Series making its mark right now in The CW with its second season, Arrow! For more information, visit the source post at Superherohype.

Funny fact: Bruce Wayne/ Batman in Batman: Year One was voiced by McKenzie as well, while Bryan Cranston from Breaking Bad fame voiced Gordon... Talk about switcheroo!!!

No release date has been given for Gotham yet, but expect it sometime later this year!

Gotham TV Series casting a 10-Year Old Bruce Wayne as regular character

It may not have Batman and will focus on his ally James Gordon, but the next DC Comics based TV Show known aptly as "Gotham" will feature Bruce Wayne... A 10-Year Old one at that.

Announced by Fox and Warner Bros. Television, a casting call has been put out for a 10-Year Old to play the orphaned heir to the Wayne fortune and future Batman. The role is rumored to be primed for a "series regular" position, so it's likely young Bruce's presence will play a pivotal role in main character James Gordon's rise in the ranks of the Gotham City Police Department. The series primarily focuses on "Gordon and the criminals that made Gotham City famous", so it's possible this will shape Wayne's determination even further to become the city's Dark Knight defender.

A shooting date for the pilot episode has also been reportedly announced for March 2014, with Bruno Heller acting as showrunner and executive producer for the show. For more information, visit the source post at ComicBook.com and TVShowAuditions.info.

No release date has been given for "Gotham" yet, but expect it to be sometime next year hopefully.

Almost Human: J.J. Abrams puts Karl Urban in a human & robot buddy cop TV Series

You know him as Karl Urban - aka Eomer from The Lord Of The Rings films, Dr. Leonard "Bones" McCoy from J.J Abrams' Star Trek films, and Judge Dredd himself from the 2012 reboot flick "Dredd". The man has proven to be tough as nails as an action hero, and can be a pretty convincing Bones in the Trek films with his perfect demeanor and attitude ala the late DeForrest Kelley.

Now imagine Karl Urban reteaming with his Star Trek and Star Trek Into Darkness director, this time in the small screen for an upcoming 2013-2014 series on FOX TV developed by J.H. Wyman and J.J. Abrams - Almost Human.

The trailer alone should clue you on how this is going to turn out.
