Marvel teases Taskmaster’s introduction in the latest ‘Black Widow’ teaser

January 14, 2020 — Leave a comment

When Natasha Romanoff was killed off in “Avengers: Endgame,” the fury fans unleashed was immense, to say the least.

One thing that kept them from burning down the house (of mouse) was the fact that we would be getting a standalone Black Widow movie in 2020.

On Monday night (Jan. 13), Marvel Studios unleashed a new trailer for the forthcoming release, though it does use a lot of previously seen footage. From the second the trailer begins, you can feel the action spy-thriller vibes from the minute-and-a-half clip.

The sneak-peek begins with everyone’s favorite secret agent assassin (Scarlett Johansson) meeting up with her un-biological sister Yelena Belova (Florence Pugh). During their meet up, Natasha tells Yelena that she’s on the run after “trying to do something good” (a callback to the fact that this film is supposed to take place after the events in “Captain America: Civil War” but before “Avengers: Infinity War”).

The action goes into overdrive after we get reacquainted with the rest of Natasha’s family members Alexei Shostakov aka Red Guardian (David Harbour), and Melina Vostokoff (Rachel Weisz). We are introduced to the new generation of Black Widows who seem to be just as deadly as Natasha, Yelena, and Melina, and yes, we get to finally see the Taskmaster in all his glory take on the Red Guardian.

Check out the latest trailer for “Black Widow” above.

“Black Widow” kicks its way into theaters on May 1.

Jared Leto brings Morbius to life in the first trailer for the upcoming blockbuster

January 13, 2020 — Leave a comment

Remember when actor Tyrese Gibson took to social media to announce that the first “Morbius” trailer would see the light of day on this dreary Monday?

Could it have been just yesterday that the actor set the Twitter-sphere aflame with the revelation?

Well, yeah, it was. And now it looks like Sony may have another Tom Holland on their hands though we doubt Gibson would care.

On Monday (Jan. 13), the studio that “brought you Spider-Man and Venom” (as it boasts in the trailer) and “in association with Marvel” unleashed the first official trailer for the upcoming flick.

The two-and-a-half-minute clip introduces the viewer to Dr. Michael Morbius, who was born with a rare blood disease that should have killed him, but somehow, he’s managed to persevere. Instead of letting the condition consume him, he decides to take matters into his own hands to help people with the little time he has left.

And thus begins his tale of becoming a living vampire.

Check out the full trailer above, which features several Spider-Man easter eggs and a special cameo at the end.

Is it possible that we may finally get that long-promised Sinister Six film? Only Sony, “in association with Marvel,” knows.

“Morbius” hits theaters July 31.

LOVECRAFT join forces with the cast of ‘The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina’ for ‘Straight to Hell’

January 10, 2020 — Leave a comment

You know how all your family and friends were urging you to move on after October came to a close, and Halloween was no more because “Halloween season is over”?

Well, we’re sorry to report (to them) that spooky season is every single day and that the people behind LOVECRAFT are just as onboard (if not more) as the rest of us creepy-holiday-loving people.

On Friday (Jan. 10), LOVECRAFT joined forces with the cast of Netflix’s “The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina” to bless (curse?) us all with the music video for their new song “Straight to Hell.”

The clip features Sabrina Spellman herself, Kiernan Shipka, giving us some serious Goth go-go dancer vibes as she performs the song in front of a screen with images of flames, brightly-lit pentagrams, and neon spiderwebs projected on it. In between shots of our favorite blonde witch doing her thing, we see several other important characters like Nick, Ambrose, Prudence, and yes, Harvey with a crop top (why we don’t know, but we’re okay with it).

It also looks like we’re getting a lot of teaser footage from this upcoming season, which makes this strange clip even better.

Check out the music video for “Straight to Hell” above.

In addition to being a standalone music video, the clip was also used to announce the official return of the hit series. “The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina: Part Three” will cast its spell on the streaming site on Jan. 24.

If the music video is giving us any type of hints as to what’s going to happen this season, then we’re (impatiently) waiting for the end of January to get here.

“Black Widow” flies into theaters on May 1, 2020.

The Scarlett Johansson-staring film will not only be the first MCU film of 2020 but also the first flick of the cinematic universe’s Phase Four.

That’s right, we’re going into phase four with a (literal) bang.

The latest ‘Lion King’ trailer introduces us to Scar, Timon and Pumbaa

April 10, 2019 — Leave a comment

The upcoming live-action remake of “The Lion King” is 100 days away from hitting theaters and Disney is celebrating it by giving fans another look at the flick. On Wednesday (April 10), the House of Mouse unleashed the second official trailer for the Jon Favreau-directed film.

The almost-two-minute clip begins with lion cubs Simba and Nala wandering into the elephant graveyard after Mufasa gave Simba specific orders not to go into that area. As the footage plays, the viewer hears Simba’s uncle Scar begin his speech about “life not being fair.” As the voiceover plays, we finally get to see Scar (who was missing from the first trailer) in all his dark glory as well as his somewhat loyal but overall idiotic hyena henchmen.

As if seeing Scar and the hyenas weren’t enough, we finally get to see Timon, Pumbaa, and that heart-wrenching stampede scene that resulted in Mufasa’s death and gallons of tears (yeah, we still get choked up about it).

But it’s not all sad and depressing scenes. The clip also includes Simba’s growing up sequence while in the care of Timon and Pumbaa and Nala and Simba meeting for the first time as adult lions.

There’s also a special little treat at the end of the trailer with Timon and Pumbaa giving us a snippet of “The Lion Sleeps Tonight.”

Classic.

Watch the latest trailer for “The Lion King” above.

Disney’s “The Lion King” will star Donald Glover as Simba, Beyoncé as Nala, James Earl Jones as Mufasa, John Oliver as Zazu, Chiwetel Ejiofor as Scar, Billy Eichner and Seth Rogen as Timon and Pumbaa, and Eric Andre and Keegan-Michael Key as the hyenas. Beyoncé, Elton John, and Hans Zimmer will reportedly contribute to the film’s soundtrack.

“The Lion King” will roar its way to theaters on July 19.

Watch: Stranger Things season three trailer includes sun, fun, and a Demogorgon

March 20, 2019 — Leave a comment

It’s time to put your favorite cassette into your sibling’s stolen Walkman because we’re about to take a trip back to Hawkins, Indiana. On Wednesday (March 20), Netflix released the first full trailer for the upcoming season of their smash hit, “Stranger Things.”

The teaser finds the crew celebrating their freedom from school and evil, at least for the time being. The three-minute-clip includes a look at how Max and Eleven have been integrated into the group. How Eleven and Max’s friendship has grown. The impact of having girls in the group has on the once strong-friendship (especially for Will and Dustin). How Dustin and Steve’s brother figure connection has evolved since the end of season two. And how Joyce and Hopper’s budding relationship is going.

But because this is “Stranger Things,” don’t expect the big bad of the season to be jealousy. Halfway through the clip, the carefree aura of summer vacation switches as Hopper tells an unknown person (we’re led to believe it’s either Joyce of Eleven) how he still wants them to feel like Hawkins is still their home. As Hopper’s voice is heard, a clip of a man with a gun in a funhouse plays. We also can’t forget our introduction to an evolved and freaky-looking Demogorgon.

As the tagline for this season says, “one summer can change everything.”

Watch the trailer for “Stranger Things” season three above.

“Stranger Things” returns to Netflix on July 4.
