Benedict Wong offers a Doctor Strange 2 update. Mystique raises a good point about the X-Men in new Dark Phoenix footage. See Peter Parker build his new Far From Home suit. Plus, a new clip from Toy Story 4, teases for The Good Place’s return, and sad news for Happy! and Deadly Class. To me, my spoilers!
The Batman
THR reports Robert Pattinson’s Bruce Wayne is “around 30 years old” in Matt Reeves The Batman, and “still trying to find his footing on his way to becoming the genius detective.” Despite that descriptor, the trade also alleges Pattinson’s first journey in the cowl “is neither another rehashing of his origin nor the tale of a seasoned crimefighter ruling Gotham City.”
Doctor Strange 2
During a recent appearance at the Denver Pop Culture Con, Benedict Wong stated Doctor Strange 2 may begin filming “some time next year.”
I know they’ve now got a writer on board who I met at the Endgame premiere. So I think that may be happening some time next year.
