Joe Johnston’s 1991 superhero movie The Rocketeer begins in the usual way, with orange opening credits against a black screen. Only the slight tinkling of piano hints at something greater, little notes of inspiration under the art deco script on display. Sure enough, after the title reveal, the score pauses. The black screen is revealed to actually be the doors of a hangar bay, and the strings in James Horner’s score rise to a crescendo. They are announcing the hopes hanging on the yellow biplane that emerges.
A warm, confident scene of pilot Cliff Secord (Billy Campbell) proving to his mechanic Peevey (Alan Arkin) and their pals that he’s got what it takes to win a race is an odd way to open a superhero movie, even one of the pulp-inspired films that Hollywood cranked out after Batman hit it big in 1989. By the end of The Rocketeer,...

The acting prowess of Chris Evans is known to many, as is his string of hit movies. However, in this list, his portrayal of Steve Rogers in the MCU’s Captain America stands the tallest. While the actor demonstrated the superhero magic on screen, there was a lot going on behind the scenes of the franchise that the fans and aficionados were unaware of.

Even going back to the 1940s, Captain America always had one of the silliest costumes in superherodom. Decked out in the colors and symbols of the American flag, and outfitted with a shield that looks like a stubborn decal left over from a model airplane, Captain America has always projected a form of patriotic tackiness that reminds one of overheated Fourth of July picnics, mosquito bites, and stale hot dog buns. Captain America was popular enough to survive the 1940s, however, and remains popular to this day.
Indeed, one must admire Marvel Studios for taking a wet blanket character like Captain America and selling him to audiences as something exciting and dynamic. The version of the character played by Chris Evans has, as of this writing, appeared in nine of the films in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Many now like him again.

Marvel had a rough year in 2023. Many of its properties underperformed, and they lost their big villain due to Jonathan Majors being fired. Looking forward to their upcoming slate, comic fans have been excited about some of the studio’s projects over the next few years. Will these films help Marvel regain control? The upcoming Thunderbolts film has been one that fanboys have been hoping to see since the MCU started. With some recent news about the property coming up, it seems like the right time to break down what we know about the production.
Who Are The Thunderbolts?
The team first appeared in Marvel Comics in 1997 in an issue of The Incredible Hulk. They seemed to be a new group of superheroes that had arrived on the scene and gained acclaim very quickly. The reader was informed that the group was actually a group of supervillains led by Baron Zemo.

Captain America: The First Avenger was a period piece above everything else. The action exclusively took place in the 1940s, at the height of the Second World War. The film was a blending of genres, fusing superheroes with a war film aesthetic, a formula that Marvel only perfected with its later films.

Chris Evans’ Captain America was one of the founding heroes of the MCU and it’s difficult to imagine how the franchise would run without his presence. From The First Avenger to the Infinity War saga, he was at the center of every battle along with his comrades.

As the release of Anthony Mackie’s upcoming Captain America film approaches, speculation about Chris Evans reprising his iconic role has sparked debate among fans. In a recent interview, Evans appeared to resonate with Quentin Tarantino’s controversial statements, raising questions about his potential willingness to return to the superhero franchise.

Quentin Tarantino, despite his love of Marvel comics, has nonetheless voiced criticism of the franchise. Although he is not alone, he is joined by Martin Scorsese, another acclaimed director, who has also expressed doubts about whether Marvel films qualify as “real cinema.” Their comments have sparked ongoing debates within the industry and among fans about the artistic merits and cultural impact of superhero movies.

The Marvel Cinematic Universe is known for pushing its boundaries every now and then. Being under Disney’s umbrella can be quite complicated for this effect; however, they have managed to find loopholes to help them through it. Some experiments when it comes to storytelling and thematics haven’t really worked for the franchise in the past few years. However, their biggest risk with the age ratings ended up performing excellently well.

Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 3 was a masterpiece. The film established who the main character of the series was and did it in such a hard-hitting way that one could not help but leave the theaters in tears.
However, it is important to remember that the film took a lot of risks. While some were safer, some pushed the boundaries a little too much.

When Marvel Studios enlisted the Russo Brothers for Captain America: The Winter Soldier, many fans understandably questioned whether the filmmakers behind You, Me and Dupree were the right team for the job.
Well, the 2014 movie remains one of Marvel Studios' best, and Joe and Anthony delivered yet again with Captain America: Civil War, Avengers: Infinity War, and Avengers: Endgame.
They've since moved on from the MCU to focus on Agbo, a production label they can release their own movies through (with the biggest hit so far being Netflix's Extraction franchise starring Thor actor Chris Hemsworth).
While the Russo Brothers' time in the MCU appears to be over, Captain America: Brave New World Editor Matthew Schmidt recently updated his film credits and Joe and Anthony's names are included.
In a list of producers, we have Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige, The Falcon and The Winter Soldier's Nate Moore...and the Russos!

When Captain America: The First Avenger Writers Settled The Debate About Chris Evans Played Steve Rogers( Photo Credit – Facebook )
Chris Evans’ Captain America is kind of the moral compass of the Avengers team, whose past was explored in 2011’s Captain America: The First Avenger. However, there were quite a few things that bothered the fans, like how Steve Rogers became accustomed to the new world, and a bigger question than that was whether he was virg*n. A deleted scene explained how Steve got used to the modern world, and the doubt about his virgin*ty was cleared a decade later by the movie’s writers Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely. Scroll below for the deets.
In the first movie, Steve is a skinny person who lacks the physique of a soldier, but his resolution and determination surpass everyone else’s. Thus, he was chosen to be given the super soldier serum and transformed physically.

In the film industry, there is perhaps no other actor who is more dedicated and talented than Christian Bale. He is the last of the stars, who would go to any extent to fully immerse themselves in the roles they play, without worrying about the impact it would have on their health. Some of his most iconic projects would be American Psycho, The Machinist, Ford v Ferrari, and many more.

Chris Evans retired from the Marvel Cinematic Universe for good after Avengers: Endgame in 2019. Yet, his charismatic portrayal of Captain America continues to create ripples among the fandom, particularly the ‘spectacular’ physique he built up for the role. Undergoing an extensive workout regimen along with 12-14 hours of daily shoots, the actor’s physical transformation is one of the best Hollywood has ever witnessed.

Fans of the AppleTV+ series Hijack have been forced to endure a long wait for the second season of the popular thriller.
The bad news is that they'll need to wait at least a few more months, as filming for Hijack Season 2 is currently underway in the UK.
The good news is that star Idris Elba will be joined by a top-tier supporting cast when the show eventually makes its way back to our screens.
Deadline reported today that three very talented stars are currently on set in London.
First off is Toby Jones, a British actor, who might he might be best known for his work in American period pieces, such as Frost/Nixon, My Week With Marilyn, and Infamous (in which he memorably portrayed Truman Capote).
While he's gained a reputation as an esteemed "actor's actor," Jones is no stranger to the world of action and green screens.

You probably know that Loki (Tom Hiddleston) was the big bad of 2012's "The Avengers" and his role there is why he's still the defining villain of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Not even Thanos can say he got his own TV series like Loki did! It's not just the God of Mischief being in the right place at the right time, though.
"Avengers" writer/director Joss Whedon overhauled Loki, turning the meek sad boy from 2011's "Thor" into a wickedly charismatic megalomaniac. Hiddleston took that change and ran with it, proving he can wield an evil grin as effectively as he can puppy dog eyes along the way. Every subsequent Loki appearance has been trying to meld the two characterizations; Loki's an evil bastard, but he does love his mum and big brother Thor (even if he loves himself a bit more).
Loki (really Hiddleston) holds the screen all on his own in "The Avengers.

The Han Solo we know today wasn't always the only actor meant to play the role. At one point, this Top Gun: Maverick star tried auditioning but just didn't get the part in the end. Glen Powell recounts the past auditions he 'blew'.
Glen Powell Reveals He Was Almost Star Wars' New Han Solo
"I can joke about it now, [but] I blew that final audition," Powell said, indicating one of the many moments in life where he felt he didn't have the chance at having his own spotlight in Hollywood.
Alongside Powell, Ansel Elgort also auditioned for the titular role, but it was Alden Ehrenreich who landed to lead Solo.

It has been over five years since Avengers: Endgame was first released. Many chapters from the Marvel Cinematic Universe have opened and closed since. However, there is no denying that a piece of their fans’ hearts went with the final minutes of the film. Many stories ended when the 2019 movie was released, and audiences were forced to say goodbye to several characters they grew up with.

While many’s fates were conclusive, including Tony’s and Natasha’s, others were left far more hazy and were explained in future projects.

Glen Powell found fame and worldwide love for starring alongside Tom Cruise in the 2022 film Top Gun: Maverick. Portraying the character of Lt. Jake ‘Hangman’ Seresin, Powell found his breakthrough role but not before failing countless times in Hollywood!

Captain America: The Winter Soldier can only be described as a masterpiece. The film perfectly exemplifies the Russo Brothers’ genius, showcasing excellent storytelling, fight sequences like no other, Oscar-worthy acting, and unparalleled cinematography. It was as though the entire cast and crew were in a harmonious dance, with everyone playing their part and doing their best to make one of the best films to come out in the MCU.

Bob Yari’s startup mini-major Magenta Light Studios has found its first in-house film production in “Summerhouse,” a period drama set against the anxiety of the Vietnam War.
“Bombshell” and “Halloween” star Malcolm McDowell will lead the project with Jacob Ward, an up-and-comer who made his debut in Ray Romano’s 2022 film “Somewhere in Queens.” Ed Kaplan (“2 Graves in the Desert”) will write the script and direct, with Shelly Jonson as director of photography.
Production will begin in Connecticut this month. Moonstone Entertainment will represent the international sales, previewing for buyers out of Cannes’ Marche du Film.
“Summerhouse” follows college grad Ned Stern (Ward) awaiting his draft into the Vietnam War. Ned spends his last summer of freedom caring for a belligerent wealthy alcoholic man (McDowell) at his lakeside mansion, only to find himself falling in love with a free-spirited and wild girl while questioning his commitment to his country.

Technological advancements have drastically affected the working of the entertainment industry, with CGI and 3D effects being used in pretty much every live-action project, be it movies or TV series. This especially includes films from major superhero franchises, like the Marvel Cinematic Universe, which has produced some of the most intense VFX projects like the Avengers saga.
Marvel’s heavily CGI-affected Avengers saga.
However, surprisingly enough, one Oscar-nominated actor from one of the best pre-Avengers films, who had one of the most prominent side roles in Captain America: The First Avenger, has openly admitted that he can’t stand 3D. This actor is none other than Stanley Tucci, who even seems to have claimed that he finds it humiliating to work with the same, let alone enjoy working with it!

Before crafting the likes of Thanos and Killmonger, who are often considered some of the top Cbm villains, the MCU often struggled to get their villains right, which was apparent in their initial phases. However, the biggest exception during the cinematic giant’s early years was Red Skull, played by Hugo Weaving, who did an impeccable job playing the Hydra head.
Unfortunately, despite having a blast playing the character, Weaving didn’t return to reprise the role in Avengers: Infinity War and was replaced by The Walking Dead star Ross Marquand. Although The Matrix star has cited paycheck disputes as the reason for not returning in Infinity War and Endgame, economics doesn’t seem to be the lone reason behind his absence.

Before later movies characterized by their muddy CGI and digital collage of actors, the Marvel Cinematic Universe actually pulled off some cool filmmaking tricks with the help of special effects. Case in point: the puny, pre-serum version of Steve Rogers fans of the then-new series saw in 2011's "Captain America: The First Avenger." According to The Wrap, the movie achieved Steve's original look via a combination of strategies, and scenes set before his transformation into the Cap we know were actually shot three times.
In one version of the scene, Chris Evans would stand in place and deliver his lines. In another, a scrawnier stand-in — "Atonement" and "Merlin" actor Leander Deeny — would perform in his place. In a third variation, the scene was reportedly filmed without any actor. This gave the effects team tons of footage to work their magic on. While productions typically shoot out of order, The Wrap...

In the on-demand era, watching a movie, even a short one, can take hours. In the theater or on TV, the movie cannot be paused, so the most dedicated viewers used to have to go back to the theater to see the same movie over and over again or record the TV broadcast. Now it is enough to buy a movie or watch it online on streaming services.
Therefore, fans who prefer to analyze in depth what is happening on the screen, as well as to understand the most subtle Easter eggs and homages, feel more than satisfied in today's reality! With that in mind, let's talk about the most paused scenes in the movies you all know and love.

Despite Chris Evans’ exit from MCU, there have been rumblings for a while now that Marvel Studios has big plans for the actor as Captain America. From chatter about Evans’ Human Torch cameo in Deadpool & Wolverine to the actor’s appearance in a Marvel TV show, speculations have been going wild, surrounding our favorite Cap.

Well, although there has been no official confirmation about Chris Evans’ rumored appearance in Deadpool & Wolverine, the Marvel TV show sounds a bit extra. Meanwhile, the logline for the series suggests that it is set to revolve around the return of the Infinity Stones. But after Loki Season 1 and with Kang and Galactus in the picture, Evans’ return sounds challenging.

A couple of days ago, DC Studios and James Gunn shared a first look at David Corenswet suited up as Superman. It's been a while since we've seen a superhero movie costume divide opinions to such a large degree, but it's certainly not the first time.
The Man of Steel isn't the first character to take centre stage in a splashy sneak peek meant to get fans excited. While that usually works, there are occasions when fans hate what they see. Others, meanwhile, are quick to defend what usually amounts to a complete overhaul which takes place during the transition from page to screen.
This isn't a list of the worst superhero movie costumes...just those that divided opinions when they were first shown off to the world (and sometimes continue to do so to this very day).

Jonathan Bailey was so blown away by “Heartstopper” that he just knew he had to be on the show.
“Like so many people, I watched the first [season] and thought it was one of the biggest, most beautiful gifts to so many people, and I wish I had that growing up,” the “Fellow Travelers” and “Bridgerton” star told me at the Met Gala Monday night.
It was announced in late April that Bailey will make a cameo appearance as Jack Maddox, an Instagram-famous classicist and celebrity crush of Charlie (Joe Locke). “I had a mutual friend who knows [executive producer Patrick Walters] and I just said, ‘If there’s anything I could do to help and be a part of that story,’” Bailey recalled.
He said that the series, based on Alice Oseman’s graphic novel series of the same name, “really has changed the way people could grow and communicate around who they are.

If there's any Marvel Cinematic Universe movie that can stand on its own two legs as a complete story, it's "Captain America: The First Avenger." Well, excluding the prologue and the epilogue, which show the frozen Steve Rogers being discovered in the Arctic and then waking up in modern-day New York City, respectively. The prologue lets you know ahead of time that Cap's sacrifice in the third act won't be fatal, while the ending is pure sequel bait.
"Captain America" is definitely not the most monumental MCU movie, but it's one of the most enjoyable. The MCU clearly takes its cues from the blockbusters of Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige's youth — from "Star Wars" to "Raiders of the Lost Ark." "Captain America" is one of the few that feels like a pulpy, earnest Spielberg adventure movie. It makes sense since director Joe Johnston is budget Spielberg; he directed "Jurassic Park 3...

The cast of season two of Tulsa King keeps building, as Neal McDonough has signed on to appear as a series regular of the Paramount+ series.
The news that McDonough would be joining the cast of Tulsa King comes just one month after it was announced that Frank Grillo – who plays Brock Rumlow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe – would be playing a vital role in season two, taking on the role of a mobster named Bill Bevilaqua. As for McDonough’s role, Variety reports that he will be playing “a powerful and extremely territorial businessman” named Cal Thresher.
McDonough has been a staple on television for a few decades now, with recurring roles on World War II miniseries Band of Brothers, animated series The Incredible Hulk, ABC’s Desperate Housewives, western Justified, and more.

Alan Silvestri is a legendary composer who counts like likes of Back to the Future, Forrest Gump, Lilo & Stitch, and Ready Player One among his many credits. He's also something of an icon in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Responsible for creating the now unmistakable theme for Earth's Mightiest Heroes first heard in 2012's The Avengers, Silvestri kicked off his MCU run by lending his talents to Captain America: The First Avenger. He'd later return for Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame.
Total Film recently caught up with the composer and asked if he's planning to work on another Marvel movie.
"Well, it looks like that could be happening, I just can’t talk about it [Laughs]," he teased. "I love that universe, for sure." While The Fantastic Four seems like a possibility for Silvestri, we'd be shocked if Marvel Studios isn't lining him up for Avengers 5 and Avengers: The Kang Dynasty...

Chris Evans first played Steve Rogers in 2011's Captain America: The First Avenger and, after multiple appearances across the MCU (including in the Avengers and Spider-Man franchises), the actor finally bid farewell to the role in Avengers: Endgame.
Steve has been M.I.A. ever since, though his final fate still hasn't been revealed to us. However, with the Multiverse in play, there are endless possibilities regarding Captain America's return in Avengers: Secret Wars.
Over the weekend, it was reported that Evans is now a lock for that movie. While we anticipate him assembling alongside the other original six Avengers as the "classic" Cap, we'd bet on the actor playing a few different Variants as well.
Below, you'll find some of the most exciting, intriguing, and likely possibilities...

When discussing MCU characters, our focus often gravitates towards the Avengers and prominent villains. However, the MCU owes much of its success to secondary characters whose roles significantly influence the storyline.
That’s why fans recently turned to Ranker to determine the top 10 most underrated characters in the MCU. While some may never regain the spotlight due to past events, others still hold the potential for greater recognition.
10. Talos
Talos made his debut in ‘Captain Marvel’ as the compassionate leader of the displaced Skrulls, sparking hopes among fans for his significant role in the MCU’s future. While he did appear in the recent ‘Secret Invasion,’ his storyline took a tragic turn. We discovered that his life was even more sorrowful than anticipated, with his daughter nearly joining the enemy ranks. Ultimately, Talos sacrificed himself to protect the human president from Gravik’s attack, preserving his ultimate aspiration.

When commenting on the MCU characters, we almost always reference the big hitters like the Avengers or the most notable villains. But the truth of the matter is the MCU wouldn’t be what it is today if not for the contribution of secondary characters whose actions impacted the storylines more than realized.
This is why fans took to Ranker to decide on the 10 most underrated characters in the MCU. Some, due to unfortunate circumstances will never get their 5 minutes of fame again, and for some, there is still hope. Let’s see who’s on the list.

Chris Evans played the role of Steve Rogers a.k.a Captain America in the MCU. For almost a decade, the actor entertained fans with his unrelenting optimism and good-old heroism in films such as Captain America: The First Avengers, Avengers: Infinity War, and Avengers: Endgame. The actor departed from the role after the end of his character arc in Endgame.
While fans want Evans to return to his role for the upcoming Avengers 5, the actor seems to be done with the character for a while. However, he did not rule out the possibility of returning to the MCU as a whole, as he expressed his desire to play Johnny Storm again. The actor had previously played the role in Fox’s Fantastic Four, which starred Jessica Alba.

X-Men ‘97 continues its narrative momentum from the emotional sixth episode into its seventh episode. Following the demise of Gambit, the episode primarily focuses on Rogue’s quest to seek justice for her former teammate and love interest’s demise. In the process, viewers get to witness some exciting cameos from fan-favorite MCU characters.

While the cameos do not significantly affect the overall plot of the episode they still serve as a nice nod to the larger universe the X-Men inhibit. Such cameos were also a trademark of the original 90s animated series and the earlier entries in Kevin Feige’s MCU, which later expanded into a grand shared universe. Here is what you need to know about X-Men ‘97 episode 7’s cameos and how they use a trick from Feige’s early MCU playbook.

Exclusive: Derek Luke (Antwone Fisher) is the latest addition to Michael, the Michael Jackson biopic that Antoine Fuqua is directing for Lionsgate and Universal Pictures International, sources tell Deadline.
The actor will play famed attorney Johnnie Cochran, who repped Jackson in a 1993 child molestation case that was settled out of court. As previously announced, Jackson’s nephew Jaafar Jackson leads the ensemble as Michael, with Colman Domingo, Nia Long, Miles Teller, Laura Harrier and Juliano Krue Valdi among others set for key roles.
Scripted by by John Logan, Michael promises to bring audiences a riveting and honest portrayal of the brilliant yet complicated man who became known worldwide as the King of Pop. The film will examine Jackson’s triumphs and tragedies — from his human side, to his public and private struggles, to the accusations and the 24/7 media microscope Jackson lived under, even at his artistic apex.

‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ trailer dropped yesterday, and it was nearly impossible to catch all the references and easter eggs in one viewing. The trailer revealed plenty of cameos to add to our list, and plenty of notable “locations.” Such as presumably Strange’s portal, and Cassandra Nova using Ant-Man’s giant head as her headquarters.
But except for funny (and awesome) easter eggs, we noticed something that filled us with hope, a brief nod that Iron Man might make an appearance in this movie, which is judging by everything so far, truly an MCU savior.
At one point in the movie Red Skull’s Car from ‘Captain America: The First Avenger’ can be seen, but sporting one significant change it has an Iron Man hood ornament, which prompted fans to conclude that Iron Man might be making a return.

Just like a prayer, the latest trailer for the highly anticipated "Deadpool & Wolverine" arrived this morning, showing off even more of Wade Wilson's first entry into the Marvel Cinematic Universe. If bringing the R-rated Merc with a Mouth into the Marvel Studios world wasn't enough, with all the naughtiness that entails, surely Hugh Jackman picking up Wolverine's claws again will seal the deal.
Of course, since "Deadpool & Wolverine" is bringing the characters from 20th Century Fox's universe of Marvel movies into the MCU, there are even more recognizable faces who will be popping up. Along with reports of Jennifer Garner reprising her role as Elektra and the appearance of Pyro in the first trailer for the movie, the latest batch of footage shows off some returning characters from previous "X-Men" movies. Perhaps even more interesting is where those characters appear in the trailer, especially when it comes...

With "Avengers: Endgame" behind us and Chris Evans having retired from the Marvel Cinematic Universe until further notice, we can all agree that "Captain America: The First Avenger" is the best Steve Rogers solo film, right? From its character work to its action sequences and a rousing score by the legendary Alan Silvestri, director Joe Johnston's WWII adventure is a top-tier MCU movie. While it may lack the visceral melees that the Russo Brothers brought to its sequels, "The First Avenger" delivers more than enough whiz-bang thrills and Brooklyn attitude to make up the difference (that and its politics are much less confused than those of "The Winter Soldier").
Johnston's superhero picture also boasts what is still one of the McU's most distinguished casts, pairing Evans with Hayley Atwell, Tommy Lee Jones, Sebastian Stan, Hugo Weaving, Stanley Tucci, Toby Jones, and Dominic Cooper. Even Natalie Dormer, David Bradley,...

Wyatt Russell debuted in the MCU as John Walker/ US Agent in 2021’s The Falcon and The Winter Soldier. The character became the US government’s answer for Steve Rogers’ replacement as Captain America. John Walker was a great addition to the MCU as his complex and divisive position within the show created a lot of interesting chatter among audiences.

Russell gave a believable performance as a committed soldier who has been thrust into the limelight and has been bestowed with an incredible honor. While some fans see him as an antagonistic figure in the show, Walker’s divisiveness is actually its true strength as it signifies what it really means to be Captain America.
