First Look at Guardians of the Galaxy

With a new year comes fresh movie news and Marvel have decided to bring in 2014 with the first official image from Guardians of the Galaxy.


With a star-studded cast featuring Zoe Salanda, Vin Diesel and Hollywood Heartthrob Bradley Cooper, Guardians of the Galaxy is set to be Marvel's biggest movie yet.

Preview Pics & Synopsis Revealed For Amazing Spider-Man 2

The full trailer is just a couple of days away now, but Sony have at last revealed a full on proper synopsis and new images for next year’s sure-to-be-a-hit movie, The Amazing Spider-Man 2.



“We’ve always known that Spider-Man’s most important battle has been within himself: the struggle between the ordinary obligations of Peter Parker and the extraordinary responsibilities of Spider-Man,” said Sony.

"Cabin in the Woods" Director to Write Netflix' "Daredevil"

Last week Wireless man Ben Mapp informed you, very kindly and with no ulterior motives, that entertainment giant Netflix had reached an agreement with Marvel and Disney to produce four original and exclusive series based on New York based characters.


Luke Cage, Ironfist, Jessica Jones and now, thanks to having re-secured the rights back from Fox, Daredevil! Forget the terrible Mark Steven Johnson Daredevil movie with Ben Affleck in it. Ben Affleck's an Oscar winning Batman now and Mark Steven Johnson lives in a fridge box under a motorway probably. Cast it as far from your mind as it will go, because today Netflix has announced that the first name in negotiations to write Daredevil is none other than Cabin in the Woods director Drew Goddard.

"Dexter" Writer Melissa Rosenberg for Marvel & Netflix's "Jessica Jones"

I've already come at you with the knowledge that Netflix and Marvel's miniseries based on the Man Without Fear Daredevil will be written by Drew Goddard (Lost, Buffy, Cabin in the Woods) but now Wireless is here to let you know that one of the other series also has a writer attached.



Netflix have partnered with Marvel & Disney to bring 4 exclusive superhero tales to your TV. The heroes involved are the aforementioned Daredevil along with Luke Cage, Iron Fist and Jessica Jones. 

Marvel Creating four New Superhero Shows for Netflix

Ready for more superheroes? Marvel is! As if having a series of blockbuster movies and a television series wasn’t already enough!




This time Marvel have joined forces with Netflix in an unprecedented deal to produce four seperate, live-action series each focusing on four of their comic book superheroes, the first of which will introduce and develop a new Daredevil. The Daredevil series will be followed by one based on Jessica Jones, one on Iron Fist and another on Luke Cage.

Captain America 2 Will Impact Agents of SHIELD

Somewhat beleaguered Marvel TV vehicle "Agents of SHIELD" might well get one of the kicks up the arse it needs to achieve greatness in the form of a direct connection to Captain America: The Winter Soldier.


It's no secret that Agents of SHIELD hasn't been doing the gangbusters business of every other Marvel property brought to life on a screen, and critics haven't exactly been very kind to the show. The cast in particular, apart from Clark Gregg as Agent Coulson, have been in for a right drubbing. If Marvel and parent company Disney want to keep the show going as their Mid-Movie Offering, they need it to be essential viewing. 

"Thor" Actress Jaimie Alexander Rumoured for Wonder Woman

Thor 2: The Darkworld made over £68,500,000 this weekend, and it's not even out in American yet, but actress Jaimie Alexander who plays female Lady Sif maybe be about to swap her shield for... another... different kind of shield. And some rope.

Alexander was at the Comikaze Expo this weekend when she revealed she'd been in talks with Warner Bros about the possibility of her playing Wonder Woman, and the other possibility of her debut coming in Batman vs Superman. She didn't those things overtly, because no one ever does unless they're Samuel L. Jackson, but she admitted to knowing the plot of the upcoming DC Comics movie which is set to star Ben Affleck as Batman and a returning Henry Cavill as Superman.

Thor Dark World : Film Review

Following on from the events of Thor and Avengers Assemble, we're back in Asgard: Thor's fighting for peace, Jane's still waiting for his return to Earth, Loki is shacked up in prison and Odin's still a massive dick.






Thor, as a character, is undeniably a bit bland but Chris Hemsworth manages to, thankfully, make the eponymous muscle-bound dumb blonde more likeable this time round but it's the silver-tongued Loki, complete with daddy issues and increasingly Snape-like hair, that steals the show, yet again. Tom Hiddleston has a way of delivering every line as if he were performing Shakespeare and manages to inspire sympathy for a character that by all rights should have most people shouting, 'get over it!'. The film's strength lies in the warring relationship and chemistry between the 'brothers', Thor and Loki. Cinematography, again, is gorgeous: from Mario's Rainbow Road to Asgard to the towering golden citadel.

Joss Whedon Might Not Be Avengers 3 Overlord

He brought us Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Firefly and more recently the Nerd King Joss Whedon took control of Marvel's cinematic Universe by both writing and directing The Avengers as well as Agents of SHIELD.

Work is already underway for the sequel, Age of Ultron, and Whedon is overseeing production of every other Marvel movie that might somehow tie into it.

Avengers: Age of Ultron casts James Spader as Villain



James Spader, who you may remember from the 80's (or from his performance as Robert California in the last couple of series of The American Office) will bring life to the title villain of the next Avengers movie when he takes on the role of Ultron.


Vin Diesel Could Play Giant Tree Man


He really could. In fact I think it's probably the role he was born to play.

Amazing Spider-Man 4 Details

In a move that even Nostradamus might suggest is a bit bloody premature, Marc Webb has begun openly discussing the possibly story line for Amazing Spider-Man 4, despite the fact that 2 isn't out yet and 3 hasn't even been written.






The sequel to a sequel to a sequel that isn't out yet was announced by Sony yesterday, leaving many people wondering if they had just turned over two pages at once or vibrated 5 years into the future.
