Marvel Studios' president Kevin Feige says the next "Avengers" film will feature a very different team


Those looking to the future of the Marvel Cinematic Universe and what will occur for Marvel Studios' films going forward got a reveal of that in this year's San Diego Comic-Con when Kevin Feige and the studio took to Hall H and announced their plans for Phase 4 and beyond... And that was quite a LOT.

However, what was noticeable was that there were no announcements for a new "Avengers" movie, and it's to be expected as Avengers: Endgame signaled the end of a storyline focusing primarily on the Original Six - Captain America, Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Black Widow, and Hawkeye. Now it's up to a new generation of heroes to come forward and take the spotlight... And Kevin Feige told MTV News in an interview that a new line-up of Earth's Mightiest Heroes will eventually show up and will be a be a different class of their own.

Margot Robbie says she's working on a Harley Quinn solo film


Looks like "Daddy's Lil' Monster" is going to be pretty busy in the next few years, as "Suicide Squad" star and Harley Quinn actress Margot Robbie has stated during an interview with MTV News that she is working on a standalone film featuring her alter ego - which is separate from the other DC movies she is expected to appear in that includes the "Suicide Squad sequel", "Harley Quinn vs The Joker", and "Gotham City Sirens". While there's no information or details on when these films will see updates, Miss Robbie did state that the solo Harley film is "Totally Separate" from the aforementioned DC Films, and she'll be helping in the production of that spin-off via her own production studio LuckyChap Entertainment.




"I've been working on a separate spin-off for Harley for a while now," said the Harley Quinn actress "I want to see her with other women. I kept saying it while we were filming Suicide Squad. I was like, 'She needs her girlfriends.'" 

 No word on when exactly this "Harley Quinn" solo film will be coming, but it's a safe bet we'll be hearing more news come next year.

SDCC '14: Benedict Cumberpatch addresses "Doctor Strange" rumors w/ MTV News


A lot of rumors and speculation is building as San Diego Comic-Con runs its course this week, and there's no exception for upcoming films falling under the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which includes a certain fan-favorite Sorcerer Supreme by the name of Doctor Stephen Strange. While it is indeed and already confirmed that horror film director Scott Derrickson would helm the film for a 2016 release, there's been no mention yet of who will star in the coveted titular role, until such time Marvel finally announces it either during their panel presentation this SDCC or sometime in the future.



Now, one of the strongest rumors to flow out of the woodwork was English actor and fan-favorite Sherlock star Benedict Cumberpatch being possibly tapped to play that role of the former neurosurgeon turned Earth's mystic and magical defender. In an exclusive interview with MTV News, Cumberpatch finally addressed those rumors, which you can see in the video below.


Voicing out that he is attached to do a play of "Hamlet" in London and that he could not comment whether he was in discussions with Marvel about the project, it's truly up to interpretation and sounds like a tease from the man who played Khan in Star Trek: Into Darkness and voices Smaug: The Dragon in The Hobbit films. Only time will tell who really gets to play the Sorcerer Supreme in the Big Screen for sure. For more information, visit the source post at MTV.com.

 Doctor Strange, falling under Marvel Studios "Phase Three" banner of films, is scheduled for a July 8, 2016 release

Michael Bay IS coming back to direct Transformers 4


Call it what you will, but the guy who brought the robots in disguise to the big screen (with lots of explosions and babes) is coming back for a fourth installment.

Via MTV News and Comic Book Movie, it has been learned in an MTV News interview with producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura that director Michael Bay will indeed be returning to direct a fourth Transformers film. It won't be a straightforward sequel, but a "reboot" of sorts, and the producer goes to call it an "evolution" of the film series instead of starting the process all over again.

Collider has also noted the story, and here's the official press release of the film, as released and confirmed by Paramount. It also features details on Bay's other new movie "Pain and Gain", which stars Mark Wahlberg and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson.
