Following Disney CEO Bob Chapek's ousting from the studio, Bob Iger returned to his executive role and attempted to course-correct the company's film, streaming, and theme park offerings.
In the case of Marvel Studios, it was time to get back to quality over quantity. Despite that, 2025 will still see the release of 10 big and small screen titles from Marvel Studios, Marvel Television, and Marvel Animation as we race towards the end of the Multiverse Saga.
One of the reasons for this jam-packed year is 2023's Hollywood strikes, though some of these movies and TV shows have seemingly sat on the shelf for at least the past couple of years. Regardless, in the wake of a leak revealing the planned premiere windows for four upcoming series, we're breaking down everything Marvel that's heading our way in 2025.

Some new promotional artwork for Captain America: Brave New World has been shared online, giving us another look at the new costumes Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie) and Joaquin Torres (Danny Ramirez) will don in the Marvel Studios movie as the Sentinel of Liberty and the new Falcon.
In addition, we have brief character descriptions for Wilson, Torres and Red Hulk (Harrison Ford). The latter confirms that Samuel Sterns, aka The Leader (Tim Blake Nelson) will be responsible for President Ross' transformation, and also reveals that the rampaging beast will retain his power of heat generation from the comics.
"After carrying the mantle of Captain America for a few years, Sam Wilson must use his intelligence and make new allies to stop a force unlike any he's seen before"

Captain America: Brave New World is the next movie heading our way from Marvel Studios and we expect the marketing campaign to ramp up in a big way as 2024 nears its end.
Today, we have a first look at some awesome new Marvel Legends action figures from Hasbro.
As you can see, they put the spotlight on Captain America, the McU's new Falcon, Joaquin Torres, and Harrison Ford's Red Hulk. Sam Wilson's new helmet is very cool, while that Falcon design arguably feels more in line with the comics than even what we saw Sam wear.
As for President "Thunderbolt" Ross' imposing villain, he looks like...well, a red Hulk. Marvel Studios has done the comic books justice with this design and we're hoping to also see his same fiery powers from those.

Mexico’s official entry to the Oscars, “Sujo,” made a sweep of the 22nd Morelia Int’l Film Festival (Ficm), winning the festival’s Ojo Awards for Best Film, Director and Screenplay.
Co-helmer-scribes Astrid Rondero and Fernanda Valadez, whose debut pic “Identifying Features” won a couple of Sundance awards and took the Best International Feature prize at the Gotham Awards in 2021, also snagged the Sundance Grand Jury Prize for World Cinema with “Sujo,” their sophomore feature, in January.
Hailed by Variety as an “optimistic alternative to violent drug war movies,” the poignant coming-of-age story revolves around the impact of drug cartels on the youth. The tale follows young Sujo (played by Kevin Uriel Aguilar Luna and Juan Jesús Varela) who grows up surrounded by their violence. When his father, a sicario (hired assassin), is killed, he becomes a target but Sujo’s intrepid aunt rescues him.

Sujo, Mexico’s Oscar submission, topped the Morelia International Film Festival with three wins across Best Screenplay, Direction and overall Fiction Feature film. It’s a good start to the international film contender, following up its nabbing of the Sundance Film Festival’s Grand Jury Prize for World Cinema.
From filmmakers Astrid Rondero and Fernanda Valadez, the drama centers on the eponymous beloved son of a small-town cartel gunman who narrowly escapes death when his father is murdered. When his aunt takes him in and raises him in the isolated countryside, he must contend with hardship, poverty and the constant peril associated with his identity.
Rondero and Valadez shared the awards for Best Mexican Fiction Feature Film Screenplay, Best Direction of Mexican Fiction Feature Film and Best Mexican Feature Film overall. In September, The Forge acquired the North American rights to the pic, which will hit select theaters beginning Nov.

The start of the home invasion in The Strangers (2008)
I don’t think anyone took a breath the entire scene. We collectively gasped when he appears behind her and we all screamed when she opens the shades and sees him up close on the other side of the window. It’s a masterfully orchestrated scene, from the use of handheld long takes to the haunting Joanna Newsom song and Liv Tyler’s pitch-perfect performance. From this scene on, all the idle whispering and chatter disappeared as the movie held the audience by the throat.

A rumored run-time for Captain America: Brave New World is doing the rounds online.
Though this probably won't be confirmed until early next year, @Cryptic4KQual - who is generally spot on when it comes to movie run-times - has heard that Sam Wilson's first big-screen outing as the Sentinel of Liberty will clock in at about 2 hours and 15 minutes.
If accurate, this would be pretty standard for a Marvel Studios movie, which usually pass the 2-hour mark.
Some new test-screenings for Brave New World reportedly took place earlier this month, and the reactions from those in attendance were not exactly positive.
Apparently, two screenings were held, with attendees split into groups with either a green or red bracelet. An initial report from World of Reel claimed that two cuts of the film were shown, but we're not sure if this is accurate (the studio was more likely looking...

The motion capture process was a new experience for Harrison Ford, who has described the process as “being an idiot for money.” Captain America: Brave New World has had a fair number of reshoots, with rumours of significant changes to the script. However, the trailer looked pretty solid, with a Winter Soldier-vibe that should please fans. Here’s hoping it can stick the landing. In...

Several iconic filmmakers - including Martin Scorsese and Francis Ford Coppola - have called out Marvel/superhero movies over the years, which has led to a lot of people (not to mention film news outlets) taking a similar stance.
In addition to the usual criticisms, there is a perception that big studio superhero blockbusters are not "real cinema," and that their domination of the marketplace prevents or makes it more difficult for smaller films to gain wide distribution.
While most actors would still jump at the chance to join the MCU or another superhero franchise, this does seem to have put some high-profile stars off the idea.
Not Harrison Ford.

October 12th marks the sixth wedding anniversary of Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank. Their nuptials, held at St. George’s Chapel, were a high-society event, and the bride wore an elegant gown that allowed her scoliosis surgery scar to be in full view of her guests.
Eugenie’s Wedding Dress Featured A Low-Back To Show Her Surgical Scar
It was a brave decision, as the bride’s goal was to change people’s perception of scars as undesirable blemishes on the body.
Her gorgeous wedding dress featured a low-back style, and she also changed into another dress during the reception that proudly displayed her surgical scar.
The scar was from a spinal correction surgery she had when she was twelve years old. However, before the ceremony, Eugenie said,
“I think you can change the way beauty is, and you can show people your scars, and I think it’s exceptional to stand up for that.

The very first test-screenings for Captain America: Brave New World (then known as New World Order) were said to have been met with a mostly negative response, which is believed to have prompted Marvel Studios to order extensive reshoots.
Additional photography for the sequel took place over a 4-month period, with Marvel enlisting Moon Knight writer Matthew Orton to pen new scenes and material for the film. Reshoots are the norm (especially for major studio tentpoles), but such a significant period of AP led to speculation that the studio must be making some major changes to the story.
Some new test-screenings reportedly took place last week, and, based on what we're hearing, this version of the movie didn't go over much better.

Season 5 of the hit TV drama is now airing on Fox with Rob Lowe leading the 911: Lone Star cast for one last batch of epic adventures.
Across its five seasons, the series has been no stranger to big names coming and going. Just last season 911: Lone Star saw the departure of longtime 911 dispatcher Grace Ryder (played by Sierra McClain), as she left the series for what was reported to be financial reasons.

Marvel Studios' decision to introduce Israeli superhero Sabra in Captain America: Brave New World was met with a fair amount of backlash when Shira Hass' casting was first announced, and the controversy was reignited after the release of the first trailer back in July.
In the comics, Sabra, aka Ruth Bat-Seraph, is a mutant with superhuman strength, speed, agility, reflexes, endurance, and stamina. She first appeared in the pages of The Incredible Hulk back in 1980 as a Mossad (the Israeli Secret Service) agent.
Marvel later revealed that this part of her origin will be altered, and the character will be reimagined as a former Black Widow. The Wrap followed up by claiming that Sabra (this name will likely be dropped) will speak "with an Israeli accent, and is an Israeli former Black Widow who now serves as a high-ranking U.S. government official in President Ross’ (Harrison Ford) administration."

A (supposed) plot leak for Captain America: Brave New World is doing the rounds online (check back later on for more), and while we haven't been able to fully verify its accuracy, at least one thing mentioned in the breakdown does appear to be on the level.
Possible spoilers follow.
According to scooper Mttsh, the Marvel Studios sequel will feature a cameo from Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes, aka the Winter Soldier.
Taking Bucky's connection to Sam Wilson (Anthony Mackie) into account, this wouldn't exactly be a major surprise.
The two became close friends during the events of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, and even though Barnes' arc does appear to have taken him down a very different path (we know he joins the Thunderbolts), it would only make sense that he'd drop in on his old pal to see how his career as the new Sentinel of Liberty is going.

Since the release of the movie’s first trailer, it has generated quite the hype despite being followed by negative rumors. Mostly due to poor test-screening results which caused massive and expensive additional reshoots.

In the latest episode of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, "Doomed to Die," there's a scene where the elf Elrond meets with the orc leader Adar, who has captured Elrond's friend Galadriel. There's a real chance that Galadriel might not survive the coming battle between these two sides, and Elrond asks Adar's leave to say goodbye. He grants it, and Elrond does something fans weren't expecting: he kisses Galadriel.
Later, we find out that Elrond actually slipped Galadriel a lockpick during this move, so it wasn't necessarily a romantic gesture so much as cover for a plan he was hatching. Still, it was a kiss between two people who aren't related, which is almost universally interpreted around the world as romantic. That confused some Lord of the Rings fans in the audience, since in J.R.R. Tolkien's books, Elrond eventually goes on to marry Galadriel's daughter Celebrían.

If Peter Jackson had dropped his iconic Lord of the Rings trilogy today, he’d probably face a social media firestorm, all thanks to a deleted Liv Tyler scene that never saw the light of day. Imagine the frenzy—fans outraged, hashtags trending, and think pieces flying left and right.

But fast forward to today, and that one scene featuring Tyler’s Arwen could have sparked an internet riot. It’s a different world now, where one cut can lead to a viral uproar, and Jackson would have had to answer for every snip and trim made to his beloved saga.

Liv Tyler, despite her Lord of the Rings fame and Hollywood legacy, couldn’t escape one curse that seemed to follow her throughout her career. Even with her undeniable talent and screen presence, something always kept her from fully breaking through to Hollywood’s A-list. While she became a household name as the enchanting Arwen, the road to lasting success wasn’t as smooth as you’d expect for someone with her credentials.

Behind the glitz and the fame, Tyler found herself stuck in a frustrating pattern that made her feel like a second-class citizen in an industry that isn’t always as fair as it seems. So, what exactly held her back from reaching the top?

Captain America: Brave New World Funko Pops Reveal Closer Look At New Falcon And Villainous Red Hulk
Captain America: Brave New World was supposed to be released this year, but like many movies, it got caught up in the WGA/SAG-AFTRA strikes that lasted for several months in 2023.
Not helping matters is the fact Marvel Studios decided the movie needed extensive reshoots which are believed to have reshaped much of the story and action scenes, adding and removing certain characters.
All this chaos has seen Happy Meal toys arrive in McDonald's close to a year before Captain America: Brave New World's theatrical release and we now have a first look at some upcoming Funko Pops.
As you can see, we're getting Sam Wilson/Captain America, Joaquin Torres/The Falcon, President Ross, and the formidable Red Hulk. There are no major surprises here, especially as Red Hulk looks exactly like you'd probably expect (it's a shame there are no flames as that would have confirmed one of...

Fixing his smile was just one thing Ben Affleck had to transform for Michael Bay’s film Armageddon. It’s not often discussed, but the beauty standards for male actors in Hollywood are just as skewed. The transformation demanded of Affleck for this movie went beyond just his appearance.
Ben Affleck in Armageddon Credits: Touchstone Pictures
His iconic boy-next-door look, which had endeared him to audiences, was deemed too ordinary for a film about an apocalyptic threat. He had to adopt a look that was equally extraordinary, one that could match this out-of-this-world film.

Marvel Studios has made some major missteps during the Multiverse Saga; however, with Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars fast approaching, we're seeing a major course correction and a shift back to quality over quantity.
Daredevil: Born Again underwent a major creative overhaul mid-shoot and Captain America: Brave New World has also undergone extensive reshoots meant to fix what wasn't working.
Talking to The Hollywood Reporter, The Leader actor Tim Blake Nelson shared some insights into just how much those have changed what we'll see in theaters next February.
"Well, we’re done. I’ve shot it," he started. "I’ve actually shot it twice because I did it originally a year ago, and then we came back and redid a lot of it at the beginning of it this summer. Every single movie I do hopefully makes me better."

Lights, camera, action! Picture this: Viggo Mortensen, the rugged Aragorn from The Lord of the Rings, reveling in the glory of epic battle scenes but never actually watching one of his standout moments. Yep, you read that right! Mortensen has confessed he’s never seen some of the best footage he shot, deeming it ‘redundant’ for the movies.

Leonardo DiCaprio had many actors vying to play one of his love interests in the 2013 feature The Great Gatsby. One of those actors was reportedly Gossip Girl star Blake Lively. Although she may not have walked away with the role, Lively did end up walking away with the film’s star.

Lively found herself competing with some of Hollywood’s best actors to star in the contemporary film adaptation of the classic Great Gatsby. The roster of actors Lively had to contend with reportedly included Mulligan, Keira Knightley, and Michelle Williams. Deadline once reported that Lively had lunch with DiCaprio and the film’s director Baz Luhrmann to presumably discuss her hypothetical role as Daisy Buchanan. However, Mulligan proved herself as the right choice for the part after performing her scene-stealing kiss with DiCaprio during her audition.

Having debuted as The Falcon and Peter Parker in the famous superhero franchise, the duo have evolved to take on extra responsibilities as the former continues his adventure in the upcoming Captain America 4.

The Mandalorian star Giancarlo Esposito was added to the cast of Captain America: Brave New World during reshoots. Following speculation that he'd been cast as G.W. Bridge, the actor was finally confirmed as Seth Voelker/Sidewinder at last month's San Diego Comic-Con.
The character is best known for leading the Serpent Society, a group of technologically and genetically enhanced villains who may or may not have been cut from The Falcon and The Winter Soldier follow-up.
In the trailer for Captain America: Brave New World, Sidewinder looks more like a paid assassin or mercenary than anything else; however, Esposito shared some intriguing new details while appearing at Fan Expo Chicago this weekend.
He described Sidewinder as "a scientist [and] a great mind," teasing, "You will see me do things that you've never seen me do before."

The next addition to the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Captain America: Brave New World, is set to reach theatres on February 14, 2025 – and this Captain America adventure, which sees Anthony Mackie’s character Sam Wilson, formerly known as Falcon, carrying the shield now that his pal Steve Rogers is retired, has some strong connections to the 2008 film The Incredible Hulk. Not only does it feature the Incredible Hulk character Thaddeus ‘Thunderbolt’ Ross (with Harrison Ford taking over for the late William Hurt), but Liv Tyler is reprising the role of Ross’s daughter Betty and Tim Blake Nelson is back as Samuel Sterns, also known as The Leader. During a chat with Variety, Nelson confirmed that he was pleased to have the opportunity to play Sterns again, and said that, despite talk of superhero fatigue and some of last year’s entries having disappointing box office returns, you should never “count Marvel out.

Tim Blake Nelson first played The Leader in 2008's The Incredible Hulk, the second MCU movie after Iron Man was released earlier that same year.
Samuel Sterns' story ended with a hint that he was about to become The Leader but, over a decade and a half later, we still don't know what became of him. However, thanks to Captain America: Brave New World, all that changes next year.
"I deeply, deeply grieved over the prospect of not being able to come back into the MCU," Nelson told Variety of his absence in a recent interview. "All I wanted to do, as an actor, was to figure out what happens to this guy. 18 years later I got to do it and I wasn’t disappointed."
"It was a great challenge and I was guided beautifully by Julius Onah, who’s an indie director," he said of the next Captain America movie.

The D23-exclusive trailer for Captain America: Brave New World leaked online last night and offered our best look yet at Harrison Ford's Red Hulk (you can check it out here if you missed it).
Now, we have a clip from the movie which sees President "Thunderbolt" Ross pitch Sam Wilson, the McU's new Captain America, on the idea of rebuilding The Avengers.
Sam reminds the Commander in Chief that he was the one who tore Earth's Mightiest Heroes apart with the Sokovia Accords, but Ross is keenly aware that he now represents the whole of America. He also acknowledges that half of them wouldn't be there without The Avengers, a nod to the Blip and Iron Man's heroic sacrifice.

Marvel Studios brought its Comic-Con teaser for Captain America: Brave New World to D23 and, with upwards of 12,000 Disney fans in attendance, footage of Red Hulk has already leaked online!
We only caught a glimpse of the villain in the officially released trailer earlier this summer, but Red Hulk is now unleashed in all his fiery glory and Harrison Ford looks awesome in the role.
As we're sure you'll notice, it appears President "Thunderbolt" Ross transforms right in front of the White House, and Red Hulk emerging from behind the Commander in Chief's lectern is a fantastic piece of imagery.
It remains to be seen how Sam Wilson can battle a Hulk and, as of now, we don't know whether Ford's Red Hulk is a one-and-done villain for Captain America: Brave New World or a character who will also factor into Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret War.

In the upcoming Marvel film Captain America: Brave New World, Harrison Ford, who has starred in both Star Wars and Indiana Jones movies, will make his first appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Thaddeus "Thunderbolt" Ross, a role previously portrayed by the late actor William Hurt.
What did Harrison Ford say about Red Hulk?
Speaking to Variety, Ford, who is now starting a new journey, said that he was mostly reliant on motion-capture technology to transform Ross, the US President Thaddeus, into Red Hulk.
What was his opinion on this? He said, "What did it take? It took not caring. It took being an idiot for money, which I've done before."

Classic rock bands often had their biggest hits when they branched out into other genres. For example, Aerosmith’s only No. 1 song was a shift in sound and subject matter from their earlier music. During an interview, Steven Tyler revealed that he was shocked that his band had only one No. 1 song.
Aerosmith’s only No. 1 song was part of a dead 1990s trend
During a 2015 interview with PopMatters, Aerosmith bassist Tom Hamilton was asked if sex was the primary theme of Aerosmith’s music. “It is actually,” he said. “When we were young, we had these guitars that were like … lust weapons. You went out there as a way to impress women and get them to notice you. That’s still there now: you always want to be admired by the opposite sex. There’s a lot of symbolism in Aerosmith. The whole thing’s a big metaphor.”
Songs like “Rag Doll,...

While many TV shows are focused on straight, white characters, 911: Lone Star made it clear that there would be more minority characters. Even when it comes to the straight, white men, there are elements to their characters that we wouldn’t usually see on the screen.
Despite this, fans have complained about how these minority characters have been underused. In a way, I see it. There is a lot of focus on Rob Lowe’s Owen Strand in every single episode. His son Tk gets a lot of attention as well—although, it’s worth pointing out that as a gay man, Tk is a minority character!
The show has certainly underused Carlos. Out of all the characters, he’s usually there for Tk’s personal storyline or he was there for Liv Tyler’s Michelle’s storyline in the first season. His work wasn’t really the focus,...

Harrison Ford may not have taken a crash course in the lore of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but he seems to have had a good time taking on the role of President Thaddeus ‘Thunderbolt’ Ross in the upcoming film Captain America: Brave New World, which is set to reach theatres on February 14, 2025 – and he also appeared to have a blast while promoting the film at the recent San Diego Comic-Con. As given away in the film’s teaser trailer and on the teaser poster (seen at the bottom of this article), Ross transforms into the Red Hulk at some point in the movie, a fact that inspired Ford to do a Hulk roar when he took the stage at Comic-Con. Ford also did the motion capture performance for the Red Hulk, a process that he described as “being an idiot for money.”

If you thought Red Hulk would be the only Hulk appearing in Captain America: Brave New World, think again.
In an interview with Entertainment Weekly at Sdcc, Brave New World star Anthony Mackie revealed that the film will feature multiple Hulks.
"The events of Hulk and his film don't pertain to this movie at all," began Mackie. He added, "And when he shows up, not Red Hulk, the other Hulk- there are multiple Hulks..."
At this point Harrison Ford taps Mackie, seemingly as if he's surprised to learn this info (or possibly even to stop Mackie from saying more), but Mackie continues on, stating, "But there's only one Red Hulk, there's only one."
"When he shows up, his world, his universe, his story- it's completely separate from the way we utilize him in our story."

Ever since Steve Rogers decided to hand his shield off to his buddy Sam Wilson (a.k.a. Falcon) at the end of Avengers: Endgame, fans have wondered what was next. We got a Disney+ series that showed Sam’s hesitance to pick up the mantle of Captain America and the history that comes with it. By the end of the series, he knew he was the only person who could take on the role of Captain America. Now, where do we go? It looks like the upcoming story of super heroes and alter egos, Captain America: Brave New World, will tell us when it reaches theatre screens on February 14, 2025.

Anthony Mackie’s Captain America 4 is largely acknowledging the existence of The Incredible Hulk within the MCU. Tim Blake Nelson returns as Samuel Sterns from the earlier film along with Liv Tyler’s Betty Ross. Nelson only had one request to the makers of Captain America: Brave New World before reprising his role.

In The Incredible Hulk, Nelson’s Samuel Sterns initially helped out Bruce Banner, but it turned out that he had ulterior motives. Banner’s gamma-contaminated blood gets into Sterns’s system through a cut in his forehead and he begins to mutate during the final scenes of the film.
