'Zephyr' has sent in a damn impressive composition of the recent Slate
Report of the 2nd Quarter from Marvel. Not terribly much was revealed this
time, though it does paint a picture:
X-Men 3 - Production starts in August, release May 26, 2006
Info: Brett Ratner is the director and going full steam ahead with the
project. The three "main" new characters have been cast, with Kelsey
Grammer as Beast, Ben Foster as Angel, and Ellen Page is Kitty Pryde.
Beyond this the plot is still a mystery, yet a report recently stated that
the first trailer is due around December, possibly with King Kong.
Ghost Rider - Filming completed, release August 4th, 2006
Info: Filming has been completed and the trailer shold be released in a
month or two. However, a breif amount of footage was released across the
web, though I think the company has taken it off the internet.
The Punisher 2 - Script near completion, release Fall 2006
Info: Thomas Jane has say he has begun to regain his weight from the
previous, already gaining 12 pounds. He has also stated that production
hopefully will start at the end of this year or the beginning of 2006. As
well, a report supposedly reveal some factors about the next movie, such as
the strong possibility of Jigsaw as the villian and the title "Punisher:
War Zone".
Spider-Man 3 - Near pre-production, release May 4th, 2007
Info: Thomas Haden Church and Topher Grace have been cast for still
unconfirmed roles. Church is a clear shot for some villian (leads point to
either Sandman or Kraven), yet Grace's possible role is really too hard to
call. Production should start in January 2006, and filming should be
completed by June or July 2006.
Namor - Director, release 2007
Info: The only progression in this project is a director, Chris Columbus.
Beyond that, the speculation on who will don the role is still going
strong, with names like the Rock, Jude Law, and even Matt Damon.
Iron Man - TBD
Info: The project has been put on a hiatus, despite the efforts of Gough
and Miller, the writers of the script. The last cast news was Tom Cruise's
response that he would really enjoy the role, yet his films were in the
way. Seeing as M-I:3 is aimmed for a Summer 2006 release, New Line Cinema
could just be waiting for the oppurtunity for Cruise to play Tony Stark.
Luke Cage - TBD
Info: John Singleton recently talked about the progression of the project.
In regards to news of Tyrese Gibson playing Cage, Singleton said that he
has told Tyrese that if he wants the role, he better pack a lot of muscle.
Despite this, Singleton still has Gibson as the top choice, and even
stating he would want Terrence Howard to play Diamondback, the nemesis of
the film. The delay is that he's just not sure what the company wants to
do. Stay tuned.
Deathlok - TBD
Info: Only that Lee Tamarohi, the previosuly signed director for the film,
has decided to leave the film. What this means for the film is a mystery.
The Hulk 2 - TBD
Info: We can only expect to hear something near the end of the year, when
Ang Lee and Eric Bana have theif next films around that time. Beyond that,
no solid news in a long time.
Wolverine - TBD
Info: A new company created by Hugh Jackman and his wife will
joint-produced with Fox the film adaptation of the Canucklehead.
Story-wise, still no absolutes.
Ant-Man - TBD
Info: Jack. The only news on this is the fact that Avi Arad mentioned it as
a project.
Black Panther - TBD
Info: This is a film that Marvel is probably holding onto. The general
feeling is that the company wants this film to be an important film rather
than one about a minor character. So we'll have to wait and see.
Captain America - TBD
Info: Avi Arad explained that the basic nature of this film will be a
"man-out-of-time" premise, concentrating on the differences of the time of
Captian America and the modern world around him. Every comic book fan is
holding their breath about this one, considering how hard it will be to
give him justice.
Killraven - TBD
Info: Same as Ant-Man.
Nick Fury - TBD
Info: Recently, Bruce Willis was the latest to be rumored to lead the
Howling Commados. If I'm not mistaken, this is the first film in a special
agreement with Paramount, which includes the rights to Captain America,
Black Panther, and possibly the Avengers.
Silver Surfer - TBD
Info: Expect some news from this project. Arad and Fox want to work on this
project almost as a lead-up to the Fantastic Four sequel.
Thor - TBD
Info: A major project. Arad has stated that this is a film that could take
years to create, the "Lord of the Rings" of comic book films. We'll see.
Thanks again to 'Zephyr'
