MARVEL Reveals Movie Lineup, ManChild loses his shit.

Marvel just released it's full cinematic schedule all the way through 2019 and it looks beyond amazing. One thing that is not in there is a stand alone Hulk film which still may happen, but not necessarily. Though the Hulk will be featured in all 3 Avengers films. There is also not a stand alone Black Widow movie (Not Iggy Azalea) set.


Captain America: Civil War
May 6th, 2016

The film will be about "a global superhuman registration with a specific inciting incident." I'm guessing something very bad will have happened in Avengers: Age of Ultron that will cause this. In the comics, Captain America and Iron Man choose separate sides on the issue causing and all out war with all super heroes.


Doctor Strange
Nov 4th, 2016

 Benedict Cumberbatch (Sherlock, The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug) is negotiating for the role, but is not fully set yet.

Guardians of the Galaxy 2

Thor: Ragnarok
July 28th, 2017
(Picks up immediately after Ultron)

Black Panther

Chadwick Boseman (42, Get on Up) will play the title role. He is a big player in Civil War and we should be introduced to him in Age of Ultron.

Avengers: Infinity War Part I

We'll finally see the Thanos and the Infinity Gauntlet story!

Captain Marvel

Carol Danvers is the title character, but no casting has been made yet.

UPDATE: Supergirl Television Show in Development, Comicbook Geeks Spin Top to Make Sure They're Not Dreaming

UPDATE: CBS has order a series commitment for Supergirl as a one hour drama. Here is the official synopsis of the show.

"Born on the planet Krypton, Kara Zor-el escaped amid its destruction years ago. Since arriving on Earth, she’s been hiding the powers she shares with her famous cousin. But now at age 24, she decides to embrace her superhuman abilities and be the hero she was always meant to be."

Looks like the development of the series is now moving forward faster than a speeding locomotive! (... It's Friday, puns are going to happen) No one has been cast yet for the title role of Supergirl, but with this series order it is almost a guarantee that the show will premier by next Fall. Also with this being on CBS the thought of this maybe being a spin off of Smallville is pretty much kaput.




Marvel might be kicking ass at the movies, but DC is adding to its reign of television. This fall season alone sees three new DC television shows (Constantine, Gotham, and The Flash) premiering. And now there is news that another superhero is getting the small screen treatment. A Supergirl television series is in development from CW's Arrow and soon to be premiering spin off The Flash executive producer and writer Greg Berlanti.The show is still in its early stages so it does't even have a network yet, but it could get off the ground very quickly depending on how the new superhuman Flash show does. As of now expect an episode for Fall 2015 at the very earliest.

(She kicks ass, takes names, and makes us geeks reach for our inhalers to help breath regularly again)
Supergirl is basically Superman's cousin, Kara Zor-El, and shares his powers and also his weakness... but not his love of wearing fake glasses and working for the Press. There is no word on whether this would be connected with the older CW young Superman series Smallville, but it most likely won't.
