First MCU Actor Confirmed For 'Avengers 5'

Los Angeles, June 22 - The Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) is getting closer to its first Avengers movie since Endgame (2019) as the Multiverse Saga continues to move forward with its Phase 5 slate in which three films are left before the beginning of the final Multiverse, Phase 6. ## The next Avengers movie, Avengers 5 will mark the beginning of the end for Marvel's multiverse storyline, and as things are moving thick and fast, a massive update finally out on the first confirmed MCU star to feature in the film. ## One of the biggest MCU names in the post-Endgame era, Doctor Strange star Benedict Cumberbatch has been confirmed to be the first actor to join the massive ensemble of Avengers 5. During a recent edition of Still Watching Netflix (via Screen Rant), Cumberbatch looked back at playing Doctor Strange and also spilt a bean on the next Avengers film. ## "This is Doctor Strange. He's a Marvel character and, well, I'll be really honest about it, the joy of playing him is immense. But also the joy of playing him means I can help create and platform stories and writing and less commercial fare into being. He's a gift in many, many ways in my life as a producer, and as an actor. I love playing him. He's great fun. I'm very much looking forward to Avengers next year, which is cooking up a storm", the actor said.## Avengers 5 was originally titled Avengers: Kang Dynasty, but assault charges against Jonathan Majors, who was set to headline the film as Kang, forced Marvel to fire him and look for other titles. It is not yet clear if Marvel will stick to Kang with a different actor or will move in a different direction with a new villain, but it is reported that the production on the same will officially kick-start in 2025 as the film is scheduled to release on May 1st, 2026. ## Stay tuned...

Sci-fi fans will enjoy. #Apes— Gitesh Pandya (@GiteshPandya) May 8, 2024 ## Oh what a wonderful film! #KingdomOfThePlanetOfTheApes continues the franchise’s winning streak.

Zack Snyder's Netflix Film 'Rebel Moon - Part 2' Gets Disasterous Critics' Response

Los Angeles, April 19 - Zack Snyder's epic space opera Rebel Moon – Part Two: The Scargiver is getting ripped apart by critics as far as the initial response is concerned, just like the first part. ## After the disastrous response to the first movie, Rebel Moon: Part One - A Child of Fire, critics are calling its sequel even worse in terms of story as early reviews on Rotten Tomatoes are the worst ever for Zack Snyder's directorial. ## Rebel Moon - Part 2 started streaming on Netflix on April 19 and the current critics' score on Rotten Tomatoes is just 18% of 61 reviews. If the initial response stays (which is very likely), it is another shocker for Snyder who is planning to make four more films in the same franchise. ## It is to be noted that Rebel Moon - A Child of Fire was also slammed by critics as its Rotten Tomatoes score is just 21% from 173 reviews. The audience score too was on the average side with 57% from over 5000 ratings. ## The film takes place on the moon of Veldt where Kora and the crew of warriors venture to help the farmers to defend and fight for their home against the Motherworld. It stars Sofia Boutella, Djimon Hounsou, Ed Skrein, Michiel Huisman, Doona Bae, and Ray Fisher, among others in key roles. ## Stay tuned...
