Another new director steps in for Disney+’s Willow television show. The John Wick spinoff series, The Continental, adds a director and reveals its own structure. Plus, another new look at the Chucky TV series, and what’s to come on Charmed and Legends of Tomorrow. To me, my spoilers!
The Batman
Appearing as a guest on the Happy Sad Confused podcast (via Collider), Colin Farrell revealed his Penguin only appears in The Batman for “five or six scenes.”
I’m only in it for five or six scenes, so I can’t wait to see the film because it won’t be ruined by my presence. Really, it’s a freebie to me. I’ll get a little bit uncomfortable for the f***ing nine minutes I have, and then the rest of it, I cannot wait to see how he [Reeves] brought this world to life.
Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness
During a recent Q&A with Games Radar, Elizabeth Olsen described Sam Raimi’s Multiverse of Madness as “a very scary movie.”
It’s a very scary movie. It’s like old Sam Raimi. They’re trying to create the scariest Marvel movie.
