Marvel May Have Plans for Even More Thor After ‘Doomsday' and ‘Secret Wars'
Jensen Ackles discusses those DCU Batman rumors. Elijah Wood watches the latest Toxic Avenger trailer. Plus, what's coming on the next Beth-centric episode of Rick & Morty. Spoilers get!A new poster for the Ryan Gosling movie, based on the Andy Weir novel about a science teacher tasked with figuring out a mysterious substance causing the sun to die out, has dropped. Entertainment insider Daniel Richtman (via SuperheroHype) suggests Marvel's next Thor project is titled Thor Quest, though has no further details on its story, or even whether it's a film or TV series. Elsewhere, Jensen Ackles addressed rumors he's in the running to play James Gunn's Batman during a recent interview with Collider. Oh, man. I don't know. It would be hard to carve out something truly unique amongst all of the performances as Batman. I would probably have to lean heavily on Gunn and whoever's directing and whoever's writing it, and get inspiration from the text. You talk about not wanting to fumble the football — that's one that I would be nervous as hell to carry. But also proud. A certain feather in the cap. Anybody who gets to wear the cowl, they got something. According to Fangoria, Emilie Bierre and Joelle Farrow have joined the cast of Lice, the upcoming 'horror mashup of The Breakfast Club and Lord of the Flies' said to have just wrapped filming in Canada. Bloody-Disgusting reports the Japanese giant monster/fantasy film Brush of the God will receive a theatrical, digital, and physical media release in the US through SRS Cinema. The story concerns the granddaughter of a recently deceased special effects model maker, a diehard tokusatsu fan, and an actor from the titular unrealized kaiju film getting sucked into the world of her grandfather's unfinished final project. Elijah Wood reacts to the Toxic Avenger trailer in a new promo. Meanwhile, a Japanese soldier and a British POW in WWII must put aside their differences to battle a humanoid fish monster in a new trailer for Orang Ikan. Production has officially begun on the fourth season of From, according to the series' official Twitter page. You could say we've been reborn.

Martin Freeman and Iain Armitage cast in The Adam Trials
Martin Freeman and Iain Armitage are to star in The Adam Trials. The duo have signed up to appear in the psychological thriller that contains a sci-fi twist from writer-director Ben Katai. The movie centres on the story of two parents who will do anything to save the life of their terminally ill son, including experimenting with nanotechnology that begins to show successful signs but at a dark cost. Compelling Pictures are producing the film whilst Freeman is on board as an executive producer with Noah Rosen, Dennis Casali, Matthew Gallagher and Steven Garcia. Casting for the female lead has started as the movie aims to shoot this year. Katai - who previously collaborated with Freeman on the crime drama series StartUp - said: "This movie has been a dream of mine for quite some time now, as has the opportunity to work with Martin again. "Now with Iain's talent in the mix, I am counting the seconds until we start rolling." Compelling Pictures boss Denis O'Sullivan said: "As lifelong fans of thought-provoking, grounded sci-fi, it's thrilling to be part of bringing this pressure-cooker of a movie to the screen with the enormously talented Ben Katai. "Audiences will be on the edge of their seats watching the cat-and-mouse game that unfolds between Martin and Iain as the story hurtles towards a stunning final twist." Martin's previous film credits include Love Actually and The Hobbit franchise and he revealed back in 2022 that he would "consider" directing a big screen flick. The 53-year-old actor told Collider: "It's something that I would consider. I do think about it. I change with it, really. Sometimes when I'm on set and I see what a director does, I look at it and go, 'Yeah, I could do that. I'd be right with this part of it.' However, the Black Panther star isn't sure if he has the "mental bandwidth" to deal with the "endless questions" that are asked of directors during the making of a movie. Martin said: "But then, there are other parts of directing that I'm still not sure I'd have the mental bandwidth for, just with the endless questions and how you have to be across everything. I know I would enjoy the bits where I'm rehearsing with actors. I don't know how good I'd be at the other stuff, or how much I'd enjoy that stuff. But never say never. If I get the confidence to think I could do it, then maybe so." The star plays CIA operative Everett K. Ross in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) but admits that there was a "gap" on set of the movie Black Panther: Wakanda Forever without the late Chadwick Boseman, who played the title role in the original film before his death from cancer at the age of 43 in 2020. Freeman said: "It was strange, that side of it. On the one hand, you're making the film that you're there to make, and there are scores and scores of people on set, joined in this endeavor to make the film. But there's also no question that, at the heart of it, there's quite a gap now, and you felt it."

Carrie Coon has no interest in Botox. The 'Gilded Age' star is inspired by women who 'are also not augmenting their appearance.'
Carrie Coon isn't afraid of aging. She'd much rather embrace it than run from it. 'Authenticity is more evocative than any kind of engineering you might consider doing to your face or your body,' Coon told Glamour in a story published on Monday. 'Now this is not the message coming from culture. As a woman who is 44, watching myself in HD is not easy, and it's not comfortable.' The decision to refrain from 'engineering' aspects of her appearance, for Coon, is tied to a maintenance of authenticity. 'It's a choice I'm making for myself,' she added. 'Yes, it's hard, but I hope that I will continue to work as a character actor — they kicked me out of leading lady status — and I'm very inspired by other women in the business I see who I can tell are also not augmenting their appearance.' Coon, who played Laurie, a successful but burned-out lawyer and single mother, in the third season of The White Lotus, reprised her starring role as Bertha Russell on HBO's The Gilded Age, which premiered on June 22. As Bertha, Coon takes on the persona of a new-money matriarch in 1880s New York City. With both characters, the Ohio native charts familiar territory as both a mother and a woman over 40. Coon shares two young children with husband Tracy Letts, 59. 'You'll always be young and beautiful when your husband is 15 years older than you,' Coon jokingly told the magazine of her marriage to Letts. But embracing her age doesn't mean forgoing self-care. In fact, Coon loves a self-care regimen. Lunchtime lasers, also known as baby lasers, as well as gua sha and myofascial massages, she told Glamour, are among her favorite things. 'I like science-based skin care,' she clarified. 'But I'm not going to inject anything into my face. It's just ... I think it's scary and strange.' The 44-year-old actress isn't one to judge, however. 'You've got to do what makes you feel good, what makes you feel like the authentic version of yourself," she told the magazine. "That is not my place to judge, but I know people are going to judge me.' On The White Lotus, Coon starred with Michelle Monaghan and Leslie Bibb as childhood best friends now in their 40s and 50s who decide to reconnect on a much-needed vacation in Thailand. What's supposed to be a relaxing week abroad quickly turns into a toxic, competitive show of superiority. These women are desperate to outdo each other. For Coon, the storyline is proof of widening opportunities for middle- and older-aged women. 'We have three women in their 40s and 50s playing with each other,' Coon told Collider earlier this month. 'I would never work with them at my own age if it was before this time. So, I just feel lucky that the parts on TV are so compelling that film actors want to be on TV.' The Leftovers star is also well-versed in navigating comments on her physical appearance. On X, one user pointed out that Coon looks 'simultaneously 35 and 55' and 'old and young,' but still 'fine as hell.' Coon then replied, also acknowledging her personal decision to refrain from injections of any kind. "Thank you. I totally agree and I can answer this one: 43, generally healthy, two little kids and not enough rest, no Botox or filler. Have a marvelous day,' she wrote in her response from November 2024. The Emmy-nominated actress followed up her original response with second one: 'I'm not trolling you! I really do agree! Feeling 'fine as hell' and loving my 40s; some days I'm feeling 35 and some I lean 55, but they are all me.'
