Do Hasbro have the Drizzt books film rights for definite or are they separate creator owned rights that would need to be reached with Salvatore?

I've only seen him in Love/Hate when he was a lot younger. He seemed to get a lot of good reviews for Dublin Murders but I haven't got round to watching it yet. He's one of the biggest up and coming Irish actors.

Personally I think Marvel could do a better job fleshing out some of the races they've introduced and then abandoned in some cases. Frost Giants and Dark Elves I understand are from an earlier era of the movies, Fiege didn't have full control back then as he does now, but they seem a bit...

Head of US Government acronym agency turns out to be a bad guy, once again. Shock horror.

Based on Disney's international (non US) strategy of placing Hulu originals and more adult content onto Disney Plus under the Star banner, I think it's likely that come 2024 when Disney takes full control of Hulu it will be absorbed into Disney Plus. Disney will find a home for its adult content...

Warcraft's failure and Jumanji's success didn't hinge on the fact one chose to envelop its story inside a game and the other decided to hide any gaming associations. There are a myriad of reasons why Warcraft disappointed at the box office and Jumanji was a success. Sonic the Hedgehog and...

Paramount have leased Titanic Studios in Belfast (studio where Game of Thrones was filmed) and filming to commence "early this year".

Starfire and Blackfire's costumes for S3 give me hope that more money has been allotted to this under Max than DCU. Hopefully that filters through to Beast Boy finally.

My hope is because HBO are now putting their name to it they'll want it to be better. It will now have a much larger audience as well so will be scrutinised to a greater degree. The showrunner and writers really should have been replaced already, they're really dragging this show down. The...

A lot of talk regarding Feige's comment that Deadpool 3 is the only property they're going for an R rating, meaning Blade and Moon Knight would be watered down. Although I think he was specifically talking about movies, it doesn't preclude this from obtaining a TV MA rating, but I don't think...

So is this likely to be higher budget on HBO Max?

Agreed they should go the Warcraft rather than Jumanji route. Ignore that your source material is a game, just fully immerse the audience in the fictional world.

Could we see Jack Russell introduced in this? It would give Marvel a monster transforming hero like Hulk but not tied to Universal.

I hope so, Sam Rockwell is ace and has been so underutilized in the MCU. I really love that these Disney+ series gives them the opportunity to flesh out these characters like Darcy Lewis, Jimmy Woo etc. I am here all day for it.

This is exactly it. We're seeing the lines blurred between movies and TV like never before with Disney+ and I think this is an irrevocable change. The pandemic has simply sped things along with the removal of theatre audiences worldwide. We now have major movie studios like Marvel and...
