<p>Bong Joon Ho who is currently basking in the success of his 2019 black comedy '<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/bong-joon-hos-critical-parasite-to-soon-turn-into-a-miniseries-273308">Parasite' </a>was recently asked if he would ever make a Marvel film.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Joon-ho's film 'Parasite' is being celebrated as one of the best films of 2019 across the world and has catapulted the maker into the big league. During a recent interview to a magazine, the director was asked&nbsp;of the possibility of working within Marvels movie. “I don’t think Marvel would ever want a director like me,” he said.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
“I don’t expect any offers from them anytime soon. Of their movies, I did enjoy the films by James Gunn and James Mangold’s ‘Logan,’ and I think they are great directors who can handle great projects like that. The film industry seems complicated, but I think it’s quite simple for directors. It’s just best to do what you’re good at. And so I don’t really think Marvel and I are suitable for each other. That’s something I just intuitively feel.”<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/oscar-nominated-film-parasite-to-release-in-india-on-this-date-274685">Here's when 'Parasite' is releasing in India.&nbsp;</a><br />

Oscars 2020 nominee 'Parasite' director thinks Marvel world is not suitable for him

<p>Director Jon Watts' 'Spider-Man: Far From Home' was just the sort of film that Marvel fans needed post 'Avengers:Endgame'. It provides a perfect epilogue to the Marvel Cinematic Universe post-Avengers, addresses some pertinent questions and gives the audience a heads up on what's in store in phase 3 of Marvel-all in two hours of its runtime.</p>

<p>The film begins just after the 'Avengers Endgame' ends. Those who had disappeared due to Thanos snap in 'Infinity War' are back-but about 5 years younger than the rest of their classmates. Peter Parker(Tom Holland) has a lot on his plate. He is yet to get over his mentor Tony Stark's death, he has Nick Fury's call to answer( which he has been avoiding for a while) and also he needs to muster up the courage to express his feelings to MJ (Zendaya)- his longtime crush.</p>

<p>As Peter's class decides to go to Europe for a science trip, he decides to ask out MJ in Paris. His aunt May though advises him to take his suit even though he protests he is on a vacation. On the first day of the trip, in Venice, a water monster appears who it seems wants to destroy the old historic buildings of the city. As Peter suits up, another new Superhero by the name of Mysterio(Jake Gyllenhaal) appears and saves the day.</p>

<p>Mysterio and Spider-Man become friends soon enough and a few more battles with element monsters later Peter is almost convinced that the worst is over. Only it isn't.</p>

<p>Written by Chris McKenna and Erik Sommers, the film lightens up the sombre mood in the first half itself with some great high-school humour and action sequences. After watching superheroes fighting it out in the intergalactic universe in both 'Infinity War' and 'Endgame', the action in 'Far From Home' shifts to some popular and historic cities in Europe--which is refreshing to watch.</p>

<p>At the onset, the plot appears too simple and you can almost sense that something is amiss. Closer to the interval, there is a superb sequence involving illusions and alternate realities that is bound to blow your mind. That sequence sort of gets things started as Peter not only owns up to his past mistakes but also comes of age and owns up his responsibilities far from his comfort zone.</p>

<p>The presence of Tony Stark looms large on the narrative - which is understandable in the post-Avengers era.</p>

<p>Tom Holland's act as Spider-Man is far more confident in 'Far From Home' than it was in 'Homecoming'. Holland delivers and impresses as the young superhero who finally steps up on his own during a time of crisis. Sure, he fumbles in the beginning but eventually its a treat to watch Spider-Man weave his web to save the world.</p>

<p>The other star-Jake Gyllenhaal- plays a relatable Mysterio with such ease. It's always a treat to watch Gyllenhaal and he doesn't disappoint. There is also Samuel L Jackson and Coby Smulders playing faithful members of S.H.I.E.L.D and making the audience feel nostalgic about the era that has gone by.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The CGI is praiseworthy with certain sequences going meta almost. The sequences that involve augmented reality stand out and even though you know where the story is headed you still enjoy the maze through which the director makes you travel along with the neighbourhood superhero.</p>

<p>'Spider-Man Far From Home' wins in a post-Avengers era. It is entertaining and gives us a lot to look forward to in the upcoming films of MCU.</p>

<p>If Michael B Jordan has his way, then we might just get to see the first coloured Superman soon! The American actor has reportedly pitched an idea for a new take on `Superman` to Warner Bros.<br />
<br />
This year, the 32-year-old star`s production company, `Outlier Society,` signed a first-look deal with Warner Bros. in January, so it`s not all too shocking that the star would make the move from Marvel to DC. Jordan has featured in a prominent role in Marvel's smash hit 'Black Panther'.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
While Jordan did pitch his own take on the beloved caped superhero, the film--if it were to be greenlit--would reportedly not hit the theatres before 2023. If the film does happen, Jordan will be the first non-white actor to play the superhero.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
This is because Jordan is busy with the list of upcoming projects as well as Warner Bros.` Despite reports of a reboot, there is no script or director attached to Jordan`s pitch.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Ever since Martin Scorsese termed Marvel films as 'not cinema', there has been a raging debate over the topic with c<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/superheroes-vs-cinema-martin-scorsese-art-row-splits-hollywood-260479">onflicting opinions in Hollywood.</a> While filmmakers like Francis Ford Coppola and Ken Loach have supported Scorsese's comment, a slew of Marvel actors like Robert Downey Jr, Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson and Chadwick Boseman defended the MCU.<br />
<br />
'Avengers: Endgame' directors Joe and Anthony Russo have now reacted to the statement and stated that nobody really owns cinema and it is a matter of perception.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
“Ultimately, we define cinema as a film that can bring people together to have a shared, emotional experience,” Joe told The Hollywood Reporter in a recent interview. “When we look at the box office (of) 'Avengers: Endgame', we don’t see that as a signifier of financial success, we see it as a signifier of emotional success.”&nbsp;<br />
<br />
"It’s a movie that had an unprecedented impact on audiences around the world in the way that they shared that narrative and the way that they experienced it. And the emotions they felt watching it," he added.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Scorsese had earlier compared the MCU movies to a ‘theme park ride’. In a New York Times op-ed, he had written, “It isn’t the cinema of human beings trying to convey emotional, psychological experiences to another human being.”<br />
<br />
Joe continued, “But, at the end of the day, what do we know? We’re just two guys from Cleveland, Ohio, and ‘cinema’ is a New York word. In Cleveland, we call them movies.” Anthony chimed in: “The other way to think about it, too, is nobody owns cinema. We don’t own cinema. You don’t own cinema. Scorsese doesn’t own cinema.”<br />
<br />
The last of the 'Avengers' series, 'Endgame' broke multiple box office records during its theatrical run.<br />
<br />
Scorsese's next 'The Irishman' &nbsp;is up for a Netflix release later this month. The film will have limited release in select theatres. It is reportedy the most expensive original film Netflix has ever produced.</p>

<p>Ace filmmaker Martin Scorsese made headlines recently when he said Marvel movies are not cinema and compared the iconic superhero flicks to a theme park. And Scorsese is not alone, American actor Jennifer Aniston too expressed her thoughts on Marvel movies.<br />
<br />
The 'Friends'&nbsp;actor believes that superhero films are responsible for the diminishing&nbsp;quality of movie experience nowadays, reported news agency.<br />
<br />
Aniston, who will be next seen in the upcoming Apple TV+ series 'The Morning Show', said that she would like to see the era of Meg Ryan revived.<br />
<br />
In a new interview with a news agency, the 50-year-old actor opened up about focusing her acting in television over films and admitted that she misses an industry free of Marvel movies.<br />
<br />
"It wasn't until the last couple of years when these streaming services were just sort of exploding with this amount of quality that I actually started to think, 'Wow, that's better than what I just did,&nbsp;" she said of acting on the small screen.<br />
<br />
"And then you're seeing what`s available out there and it's just diminishing and diminishing in terms of, it's big Marvel movies. Or things that I'm not just asked to do or really that interested in living in a green screen," Aniston added.<br />
<br />
In the last two years, Marvel has released seven movies, with six more already announced through 2021. On being asked how much the movie business has changed, she responded by saying how much she yearned "to have the era of Meg Ryan come back."<br />
<br />
"It's changed so much. I think we would so love to have the era of Meg Ryan come back," Aniston said of the movie industry. Aniston reminisced some of her favourite movies from the 70s&nbsp;and 80s, telling the outlet that there should be a resurgence of those sorts of films.<br />
<br />
"I just think it would be nice to go to a movie theatre, sit cozy. I think we should have a resurgence. Let's get the Terms of Endearment back out there. You know, 'Heaven Can Wait', 'Young Frankenstein', 'Blazing Saddles', 'Goodbye Girl'&nbsp;".<br />
<br />
And although streaming services have helped in creating new opportunities for the actor, such as her new upcoming series 'The Morning Show', she remembers being taken aback by the concept of them in the first place.<br />
<br />
"I remember not understanding. 'What the hell does streaming mean?'&nbsp;They're like, It's there all the time'',&nbsp;she recalled. So tuning in on Thursday nights at eight o'clock is not a thing anymore? Or you're not going to the bathroom on a commercial break and someone yells, 'It's back on!'&nbsp;That doesn't happen anymore? It's kind of sad," the 'Murder Mystery'&nbsp;star added.<br />

The controversy surrounding Marvel films doesn’t seem to die down as another Hollywood celebrity has now dissed the Studio for its films. Jennifer Aniston who is busy promoting her upcoming serial ‘The Morning Show’ got talking to a US publication Variety as she said that she wished for the era of romantic films to come back, mentioning Meg Ryan in her statement. On the changing face of Hollywood, Jennifer said, "It’s changed so much. I think we would so love to have the era of Meg Ryan come back. I just think it would be nice to go into a movie theater, sit cozy. I think we should have a resurgence. Let’s get the Terms of Endearment, back out there. You know, Heaven Can Wait, Young Frankenstein, Blazing Saddles Goodbye Girl." As she is making her return to TV, she said, "It wasn’t until the last couple of years when these streaming services were just sort of exploding with this amount of quality that I actually started to think, 'Wow, that’s better than what I just did.'

<p>The year 2020 is going to be full&nbsp;of surprises for the Marvel fans! Three new comic book series was unveiled at New York Comic-Con recently.<br />
<br />
The company announced relaunches for the comic book adventures of some of the most iconic characters including Thor, Iron Man and the Guardians of the Galaxy during its 'Marvel Comics: Next Big Thing'&nbsp;panel at New York Comic-Con recently, reported The Hollywood Reporter.<br />
<br />
Following the conclusion of writer Jason Aaron's long-running 'Thor'&nbsp;storyline with the final issue of 'King Thor'&nbsp;this December, fan-favourite 'Venom'&nbsp;writer Donny Cates and 'Deadpool'&nbsp;artist Nic Klein will launch a new series, titled 'Thor', as a new danger threatens Asgard once again.<br />
<br />
Cate's&nbsp;new duty for 'Thor'&nbsp;means that he'll be stepping down from his current post as 'Guardians of the Galaxy'&nbsp;writer, leading to a relaunch of that title as well.<br />
<br />
Writer of the acclaimed&nbsp; 'Immortal Hulk', Al Ewing, will take up the reins alongside Friendly Neighbourhood 'Spider-Man' artist Juan Cabal, as the Guardians have to return from retirement to keep the galaxy safe from a threat: the Gods of Olympus, reborn with a new mission to bring war to the cosmos.<br />
<br />
While both Thor and the Guardians are receiving new series with new creative teams and new storylines, 'Iron Man's'&nbsp;new series is something altogether different: Iron Man 2020 sees Dan Stott and Christos Gage continue as writers of the character from their ''Tony Stark: Iron Man'&nbsp;series, and continue the long-running storyline of an artificial intelligence rebellion, but two things are all-new, instead.<br />
<br />
Firstly, Pete Woods (DC's Red Hood) in onboard for the project as an artist, and secondly, there's a new character under the helmet: Arno Stark, Tony's adoptive brother.<br />
<br />
The panel also announced Marvels X, an upcoming six-issue series acting as a prequel to the cult Earth X trilogy, with writers Alex Ross and Jim Krueger returning and artist Velibor Stanojevic taking the place of original trilogy artist Doug Braithwaite.&nbsp;</p>

<p>While the star didn't share any details regarding his new project, we are hoping that something exciting is coming up. It was previously announced that the Russo Brothers would direct Holland in a drug drama 'Cherry', which is about an army medic with PTSD who develops an addiction and ends up robbing banks, reported news agency.<br />
<br />
Holland has previously worked with the Russo brothers on several Marvel films, including 'Captain America: Civil War', 'Avengers: Infinity War'&nbsp;and the upcoming&nbsp; 'Avengers: Endgame'.<br />
<br />
Sony Pictures Entertainment and The Walt Disney Studios recently announced that Marvel Studios and its President Kevin Feige will be producing the third film in the 'Spider-Man: Homecoming'&nbsp;series, despite the epic spat.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/sony-pictures-marvel-strike-deal-for-new-spider-man-film-252743">Sony Pictures, Marvel strike deal for new 'Spider-Man' film</a><br />
<br />
Moreover, Holland will also be seen in any future Marvel films, according to their latest arrangement. Announcing Spidey's return to the series.<br />
<br />
Feige said in a statement: ''I am thrilled that Spidey's journey in the MCU will continue, and I and all of us at Marvel Studios are very excited that we get to keep working on it".<br />
<br />
Last month, the news of <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/spider-man-may-exit-marvel-universe-due-to-a-stand-off-between-sony-and-disney-244554">Marvel and Sony parting </a>ways surfaced and pointed to likely affecting the release of future Spider-Man films.<br />
<br />
The move came after Marvel and its parent company, Disney, requested for a bigger share from any Spider-Man movies going forward, which was turned down by Sony.<br />
<br />
Sony owns the film rights to the flicks, and several years ago, the studios struck a deal - Feige would help in producing Sony's solo 'Spider-Man'&nbsp;movies, allowing Holland's character Spider-Man to appear in the MCU, beginning with 2016's 'Captain America: Civil War' .<br />
<br />
After the release of this year's 'Spider-Man: Far From Home', which has now become Sony's highest-grossing film of all time with USD 1.11 billion worldwide, Disney asked to share co-financing on future 'Spider-Man'&nbsp;films, while Sony wanted the financing arrangement to remain the same as it had been earlier.&nbsp;</p>

Sony owns the film rights to the flicks, and several years ago, the studios struck a deal - Feige would help in producing Sony's solo 'Spider-Man' movies, allowing Holland's character Spider-Man to appear in the MCU, beginning with 2016's 'Captain America: Civil War' . After the release of this year's 'Spider-Man: Far From Home', which has now become Sony's highest-grossing film of all time with USD 1.11 billion worldwide, Disney asked to share co-financing on future 'Spider-Man' films, while Sony wanted the financing arrangement to remain the same as it had been earlier.

Tom Holland taking break from Instagram to focus on a future project

<p>Spider-Man will spin his web on the big screen once again.&nbsp;A <a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/spider-man-may-exit-marvel-universe-due-to-a-stand-off-between-sony-and-disney-244554">breakdown in talks between Sony Pictures and Marvel </a>had imperiled the web-slinger's celluloid future, but the two companies announced a deal Friday for Marvel Studios to produce the third Spidey film starring British actor Tom Holland.<br />
<br />
The film -- which follows up on 'Spider-Man: Homecoming' and 'Spider-Man: Far from Home' -- is set for release on July 16, 2021, the studios said.<br />
<br />
Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige will take up his usual role as producer.<br />
<br />
"I am thrilled that Spidey's journey in the MCU (Marvel Cinematic Universe) will continue, and I and all of us at Marvel Studios are very excited that we get to keep working on it," Feige said in a statement.<br />
<br />
"Spider-Man is a powerful icon and hero whose story crosses all ages and audiences around the globe.<br />
<br />
"He also happens to be the only hero with the superpower to cross cinematic universes, so as Sony continues to develop their own Spidey-verse, you never know what surprises the future might hold."<br />
<br />
Sony and Disney, which owns Marvel Studios, had reached an impasse over the summer on a new financing deal -- sparking despair for fans who have embraced Holland's take on the teen hero.<br />
<br />
As part of the deal, the character will also appear in a future Marvel Studios film.<br />
<br />
Holland reacted to the news on Instagram, posting a smiley face with a clip from 'The Wolf of Wall Street'&nbsp;in which Leonardo DiCaprio's character says: "I'm not leaving. (...) The show goes on."</p>

Sony Pictures, Marvel strike deal for new 'Spider-Man' film

<p>Oscar-winner Natalie Portman, who is all set to return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe with `Thor: Love and Thunder` said that she is very excited to "wield the hammer"."I`m very excited to wield the hammer," People quoted Portman as telling Entertainment Tonight.<br />
<br />
"They came to me with the idea and said, `We have this idea for you that was a storyline in some of the comics where Jane becomes Lady Thor,` and I was like, `This is very exciting!`" she added.<br />
<br />
She went on to explain her absence from the 2017 film `Thor: Ragnarok` saying, "Obviously, I wasn`t written into because of where it took place. It wasn`t really on Earth, and my character is on Earth."<br />
<br />
The news that Portman will be the first female Thor was announced at this year`s Comic-Con at San Diego. The actor even appeared on stage alongside Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson.</p>

<p>The `Black Swan` actor described her fellow actors "so exciting to work with."<br />
<br />
"I love Tessa and Chris so much," she added.<br />
<br />
While Portman has starred in previous Thor films as the titular character`s love interest Jane Foster, this is her first stint as Thor!<br />
"Her super new role in the fourth Thor film is based on Jason Aaron`s comic book run that saw Jane Foster ultimately become the Mighty Lady Thor when Thor Odinson finds himself unworthy of picking up Mjolnir for the first time in the rebooted Thor #1," reported Entertainment Weekly, cited People.</p>

<p>Along with Portman, the upcoming film will also star Thompson as Valkyrie, one of Marvel`s first queer superheroes, along with Hemsworth. It`s slated to hit theatres in November 2021.</p>
