Iron Man and the Hulk sequel are already starting production. Robert Downey Jr. is Iron man and Adrien Brody is said to be the front runner for the new Hulk.

They should be the next out of the gate in terms of releases along with the Batman movie.

Captain America and Nick Fury have been put on the back burner from what I hear.

Joss Whedon was writing Wonder Woman but the studio hated his script and canned his ass.

Now the movie is being re-written and post poned.

Thats all I know about the list.

A few other tidbits...

They are looking to make Nick Fury an African American character like the Ultimate Marvel comics do. Theres been talk they want Sam Jackson to do the role. I read that in Wizard magazine months ago.

Also Marvel feels the Hulk movie was not well done and want to get a sequel on the books with more action and less drama. They also wanted to make it more clear that Banner is meant to be a wimpy nerd, thus casting a skinny actor like Brody. No CGI for the monster when he transforms either. (Don't know how I feel about this....we'll see)

and the Superman sequel is said to be looking to have Brainiac as the villian.

Whew....ok i'm done.

Interesting list. I'm most looking forward to Thor and "The Avengers".

On a side note, has anyone played Marvel Alliance? I have it on the Wii, and it's fantastic. Getting to play as all those superheroes on one team, going against major villians in the Marvel Universe like Loki, Mephisto, and Dr. Doom? So fun!

And now, here it is...your moment of Carlin (10/10/2008)


I don't think we should be governing ourselves. What we need is a king, and every now and then if the king's not doing a good job, we kill him.

Robert Downey Jr fits iron man pretty well. Im interested too see if they even do the avengers and the justice league. If they do i wonder if tey can pull it off.

Wonder Woman sounds to me like it will be a flop,but hey, who knows, her origin is pretty cool so if they do it right it can be good.

Wolverine will be good. ..duh..

The Flash if they get ryan reynolds will be awesome.

I want to see them make a hulk movie better then the first. Hulk is a cool comic.

I have high expectations for Iron Man.

I've seen the designs on the armor and it looks fantastic.

Plus the actors involved are all top notch so it should be good.

Gwen Paltrow as Pepper Potts. Wooo!!!
