Captain America: Civil War Trailer – Get your first look at Tom Holland’s Spider-man

March 10, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

While there have been quite a few images and posters for Captain America: Civil War, they’ve deliberately shied away from showing us one of the main things everyone wants to see – Spider-man’s first appearance in a Marvel movie. The deal between Sony and Marvel allowed it to happen, and Tom Holland was cast in the role, with Civil War marking his first appearance before he gets a standalone movie.

However, the new Captain America: Civil War makes the big reveal, so get a good look at the new Spidey below.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Marvel’s “Captain America: Civil War” finds Steve Rogers leading the newly formed team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity. But after another incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability, headed by a governing body to oversee and direct the team. The new status quo fractures the Avengers, resulting in two camps—one led by Steve Rogers and his desire for the Avengers to remain free to defend humanity without government interference, and the other following Tony Stark’s surprising decision to support government oversight and accountability.

‘Marvel’s “Captain America: Civil War” stars Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Don Cheadle, Jeremy Renner, Chadwick Boseman, Paul Bettany, Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Rudd, Emily VanCamp, Frank Grillo and Martin Freeman, with William Hurt and Daniel Brühl.

‘Anthony & Joe Russo are directing with Kevin Feige producing. Louis D’Esposito, Victoria Alonso, Patricia Whitcher, Nate Moore and Stan Lee are the executive producers. The screenplay is by Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely. Get ready to pick a side and join the nonstop action playing out on two fronts when Marvel’s “Captain America: Civil War” opens in U.K. cinemas on 29 April, 2016.’ [Read more…]

Captain America: Civil War Super Bowl Spot – New footage emerges from Avengers 2.5

February 8, 2016 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Pretty much everyone from Avengers is showing up in Captain America: Civil War, except for Thor and Hulk (but that’s because they’re teaming up for their own adventure). As a result, Marvel is hoping the film is going to be huge and so it’s no suprise they felt the need for a Super Bowl spot, which you can take a look at below.

Synopsis: ‘Marvel’s “Captain America: Civil War” picks up where “Avengers: Age of Ultron” left off, as Steve Rogers leads the new team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity. After another international incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability and a governing body to determine when to enlist the services of the team. The new status quo fractures the Avengers while they try to protect the world from a new and nefarious villain.

‘The movie stars Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Emily VanCamp, Don Cheadle, Jeremy Renner, Chadwick Boseman, Paul Bettany, Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Rudd, Frank Grillo, Tom Holland, with William Hurt and Daniel Brühl. Marvel’s “Captain America: Civil War” is directed by Anthony & Joe Russo and produced by Kevin Feige. Louis D’Esposito, Alan Fine, Victoria Alonso, Patricia Whitcher, Nate Moore and Stan Lee serve as executive producers and the screenplay is by Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely.’

Captain America: Civil War Trailer – Chris Evans & Robert Downey Jr. are no longer friends

November 25, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

It may have Captain America in the name, but Civil War is almost as much of an Avengers movie as Age Of Ultron. Only Thor and Hulk are missing – but they will both be in Thor: Ragnarok, so they haven’t been forgotten completely.

Now three posters and a first trailer for Captain America: Civil War are here.

Take a look at the trailer and posters below.

Avengers: Age of Ultron (Cinema Review)

April 22, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Starring: Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Chris Evans, Mark Ruffalo, Scarlett Johansson
Director: Joss Whedon
Running Time: 141 mins
Certificate: 12A
Release Date: April 23rd 2015

Marvel must have been licking their lips when some genius came up with the idea of throwing all of their superheroes into one film to fight against evil. However The Avengers was a gargantuan success, becoming the third highest grossing movie ever. Now comes the sequel, Age Of Ultron, which has a lot to live up to. The result is a series of brilliantly executed set pieces, but inevitably the characters get lost in the mayhem and some of the actors look like they’d rather be elsewhere.

The plot is a cut and paste job about the evil Ultron, who is fed up with humans ruining their planet, and reasons it’s best to wipe them out – after all they’ve had a fair go. It’s actually a pretty good argument, but we’re supposed to be on the side of the Avengers, who must protect Earth from the evil robot and his army of automatons. [Read more…]

Crush Of The Day: The Stars Turn Out For The Avengers: Age Of Ultron World Premiere

April 14, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

The stars of Marvel were out in force for the LA World Premiere of Avengers: Age Of Ultron, and as you’d expect the likes of Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth and Jeremy Renner had their best threads on as they strutted down Hollywood Boulevard, and we’ve got the pics to prove it.

It was a bit of an early World Premiere as the film isn’t out in the US until May 1st, but the stars are off on a world tour to promote the film before its international release on April 23rd, and so the US premiere has already taken place.

As well as the stars mentioned above, Avengers actors such as Mark Ruffalo, James Spader, Scarlett Johansson, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Elizabeth Olsen, Cobie Smulders, Samuel L. Jackson, Paul Bettany and Anthony Mackie were also on hand, as were stars from the wider Marvel world, such as Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D’s Clark Gregg and Brett Dalton, and Ant-Man’s Paul Rudd.

Take a look at the action from the red carpet below. [Read more…]

New Avengers: Age Of Ultron Trailer Hits – Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans & co. are back

March 4, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

avengers-age-of-ultron-captain-america-banner

I think Marvel are keen for us to know that Avengers: Age Of Ultron won’t be short on action, as they’ve released a trailer that seems to want to suggest the Battle Of New York was a bit wimpy compared to what they have in store.

You can take a look at it before, along with new character banners for Captain America and Hawkeye above (you can see the other recent character banners for the movie here and here).

Here’s the synopsis: ‘Marvel Studios presents “Avengers: Age of Ultron,” the epic follow-up to the biggest Super Hero movie of all time. When Tony Stark tries to jumpstart a dormant peacekeeping program, things go awry and Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, including Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, The Incredible Hulk, Black Widow and Hawkeye, are put to the ultimate test as the fate of the planet hangs in the balance. As the villainous Ultron emerges, it is up to The Avengers to stop him from enacting his terrible plans, and soon uneasy alliances and unexpected action pave the way for an epic and unique global adventure.

Marvel’s “Avengers: Age of Ultron” stars Robert Downey Jr., who returns as Iron Man, along with Chris Evans as Captain America, Chris Hemsworth as Thor and Mark Ruffalo as The Hulk. Together with Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow and Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye, and with the additional support of Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury and Cobie Smulders as Agent Maria Hill, the team must reassemble to defeat James Spader as Ultron, a terrifying technological villain hell-bent on human extinction. Along the way, they confront two mysterious and powerful newcomers, Wanda Maximoff, played by Elizabeth Olsen, and Pietro Maximoff, played by Aaron Taylor-Johnson, and meet an old friend in a new form when Paul Bettany becomes Vision. Written and directed by Joss Whedon and produced by Kevin Feige, Marvel’s “Avengers: Age of Ultron” is based on the ever-popular Marvel comic book series “The Avengers,” first published in 1963. Get set for an action-packed thrill ride when The Avengers return in Marvel’s “Avengers: Age of Ultron” on April 23rd, 2015.’ [Read more…]

Robert Downey Jr’s Iron Man Gets An Avengers: Age Of Ultron Banner

February 25, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

After yesterday’s full Avengers: Age Of Ultron posters, it’s time for one of the characters to get their own poster – and it’s not too surprising that first up is Robert Downey Jr’s Iron Man/Tony Stark, who’s looking as cool as you might expect – even if he is responsible for creating the movie’s villain.

Here’s the movie’s short synopsis: ‘When Tony Stark jumpstarts a dormant peacekeeping program, things go awry and Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, including Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, The Incredible Hulk, Black Widow and Hawkeye, are put to the ultimate test as they battle to save the planet from destruction at the hands of the villainous Ultron.’

It stars Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, Mark Ruffalo, Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremy Renner, Don Cheadle, Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Bettany, Cobie Smulders, Stellan Skarsgård with James Spader and Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury.

Avengers: Age Of Ultron reaches the UK on April 23rd 2015 (and a week later in the US).

New Avengers: Age Of Ultron Poster Unites Heroes Old & new

February 24, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

Believe it or not but it’s now less than two months until Avengers: Age Of Ultron on April 23rd 2015 (and a week later in the US). As a result it’s time for the official poster which brings together an awsul lot of heroes, including Hawkeye, Black Widow, Hulk, Iron Man, Captain America, Thor and newcomers Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver.

It looks cool if a little and rather generic, especially with Vision and loads of robots flying around in the background.

Here’s the short synopsis: ‘When Tony Stark jumpstarts a dormant peacekeeping program, things go awry and Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, including Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, The Incredible Hulk, Black Widow and Hawkeye, are put to the ultimate test as they battle to save the planet from destruction at the hands of the villainous Ultron.’

New Avengers: Age Of Ultron Trailer – Thor, Hulk, Iron Man & Co. Up The Action

January 13, 2015 By Tim Isaac Leave a Comment

The new trailer for Avengers: Age Of Ultron may start out fairly quietly, but by the end of its running time it’s certainly upped the action, with plenty of explosions, fighting and perhaps most excitingly for fans, some hulkbusting.

‘Marvel’s “Avengers: Age of Ultron” stars Robert Downey Jr., who returns as Iron Man, along with Chris Evans as Captain America, Chris Hemsworth as Thor and Mark Ruffalo as The Hulk. Together with Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow and Jeremy Renner as Hawkeye, and with the additional support of Samuel L.
