Two new possible roles for leading men of the comic book/sci-fi genres:
The new Superman is working on his next big role – it’s with one of my favorite directors. Henry Cavill (The Man of Steel) is in talks to join The Great Wall for Edward Zwick according to Variety.

The book features an all-star creative team – including print cover artist Gary Frank, digital cover artist Cat Staggs and interiors by Pere Perez.
“Six months after Clark Kent donned the cape and took to the skies to save Earth from Apokolips… enter Season 11!” declares Miller. “New allies abound! New enemies afoot! And old friends return where they’re least expected! Pere and colorist Chris Beckett have done a fantastic job of capturing the look of the show and the players, and Gary and Cat are knocking it out of the park on covers. I couldn’t be more excited to help give seasoned viewers and new readers an all-access pass to Clark’s first year in the cape.”
Congratulations to patient Smallville fans! Enjoy1
Huge praise for The Man of Steel Director and leading man from the actor who gets to ooze Kryptonian evil on-screen. Michael Shannon plays General Zod in the new Superman film. In an interview with The Playlist the actor compared Zach Snyder to Martin Scorsese, saying Snyder’s reboot is “edgy in a way like when Nolan took over the Batman franchise.”
“Henry [Cavill] is a fantastic Superman, he’s got a little edge to him and he’s smart, clever and I had fun working with him,” Shannon added. “I think Zack is the master stylist, visually, I mean he’s up there with Scorsese in my book in terms of visual composition, orchestration, etc.”
A huge compliment sure to heighten already huge expectations.

I’m excited for Disney’s John Carter! Less than a month before you can experience Mars aka Barsoom. Coming Soon.Net scored an exclusive one minute television spot.
Comic Book Movie revealed an international poster for the big screen version of Edgar Rice Burroughs hero featuring Taylor Kitsch and the alien spacecraft. Disney’s John Carter opens March 9th.
Even with powerhouses like Thor, Hulk and Iron Man you need some heroes that can be your stealth operatives. Earth’s Mightiest heroes have expert archer Hawkeye and superspy Black Widow. Avengers Assemble by Brian Michael Bendis and Mark Bagley is a new series to get you primed for Marvel’s The Avengers on the big screen.
Clint and Natasha are extraordinary people but they don’t have the powers of Cap, Iron Man, Thor or Hulk. Marvel.com revealed new preview art plus Bagley revealed how he’s making sure the non-powered Avengers never get lost in the background.
“Hawkeye is the cocky buccaneer of the team—always has a smile on his face and is ready at a moment’s notice to write a check his butt can’t cash,” says Mark Bagley. “Natasha has earned her place on the team and [writer] Brian [Michael Bendis] will treat her thusly. She certainly isn’t going to be the ‘chick’ character.”
Avengers Assemble #1 hits stores March 14th.

“And you will KNOW my name is Nick Fury when I lay my vengeance on thee!”
It’s a good bit and I stand by it – back to the story – one of my friends and followers emailed this IMDB link followed by “WHATTTTTTT!”
Marvel has a full slate of movies post Avengers including Iron Man 3 and Thor 2 plus two untitled films – Captain America 2 is likely but is Nick Fury getting his own flick?
The synopsis goes like this:
“A daring amateur boxer from Hells Kitchen is recruited by the Army for some top-secret assignments. He soon is promoted to captain, where he puts together the First Attack Squad, a group of elite soldiers who carry out elite missions.”
Samuel L. Jackson, Neal McDonough(Dum Dum Dugan) and Clark Gregg (Agent Coulson) are listed as rumored.
How cool would a young Nick Fury and the formation of SHIELD movie be? Who could play a young Nick? And could you have feature one of his World War II missions with a Canadian paratrooper – last name Howlett (soon to be named WOLVERINE!)
