Star Wars: Ep 1 Racer
May 12 release date. Now coming to PS4 as well as Switch.
MK11
Well Bruce Campbell isn’t going to be doing a voice for KP2. That’s not to say that we won’t be getting Ash, he just won’t have the one and only in the vocal booth. Campbell said recently in an interview he knows nothing about the project, if it is even happening at all.
Comic Books/Books
SDCC
San Diego Comic Con has officially been cancelled! For the first time in 50 years there will be no iteration of San Diego’s convention. Will return July 22 of 2021.
Wondercon
Yeah, them too… To return March 26 2021
Rumor Mill
John Krasinski
It is now also rumored that Marvel is looking to have Krasinski direct as well!! They are reportedly looking at Fantastic 4, Sons of Midnight, and Captain America as possible projects.
Joss Whedon
If Krasinski doesn’t direct F4, then there is another Rumor saying that Joss will be returning to the MCU to do it. Or maybe an X-Men movie?
Justice League Dark
Rumored lineup for the series is: Constantine, Zatanna, Deadman, Jason Blood aka The Demon Etrigan, and Swamp Thing.
She-Hulk
If schedules stay the way they are then there is some interesting filming scheduled for She-Hulk. So interesting in fact, that they are fueling rumors that we WILL be seeing Jen Walters in Spider-Man, because they are both set to film in Atlanta in early July.
