Dwayne Johnson (Black Adam, Moana, The Fast Saga) will voice Krypto the Superdog in the upcoming animated movie DC League of Super-Pets from Warner Bros. and Warner Group Animation. Johnson’s Seven Bucks production company will produce the project (via Deadline). The feature was originally planned for a 2021 release, but was delayed by the studio and will now arrive in theaters on May 20, 2022.

DC League of Super-Pets is written by Jared Stern (The Lego Batman Movie) and John Whittington (The Lego Ninjago Movie) and directed by Stern along with co-director Sam Levine (Penn Zero: Part-Time Hero). The project is based on characters from DC Comics’ Superman created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster.

The movie will mark the first time Superman’s beloved canine companion has appeared in a feature. An animated television series titled Krypto the Superdog ran for 39 episodes between 2005-2006, centering on the adventures of the Kryptonian superhero dog and his friends.

It was previously reported that DC League of Super-Pets could also feature the characters of Ace the Bat-Hound, Streaky the Super Cat, Supergirl’s horse, Comet, and the two super-powered monkeys Gleek and Beepo. Additional voiceover casting announcements should come soon.

Kevin Feige Teases Multiple Versions of Loki in the Disney+ Series

Kevin Feige Teases Multiple Versions of Loki in the Disney+ Series

With only more than two weeks left to go before the highly-anticipated debut of Loki, Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige, and head writer Michael Waldron along with lead star Tom Hiddleston have revealed some new details about the upcoming Disney+ series. In a recent interview with EW, Feige confirmed that the studio’s third MCU series will also get to explore the multiverse as it will deal with time and reality, teasing fans that they should expect to see multiple versions of Hiddleston’s God of Mischief.

“He’s been around for thousands of years. He had all sorts of adventures,” Feige said. “Wanting to fill in the blanks and see much more of Loki’s story [was] the initial desire [for the series].”

“Part of the fun of the multiverse and playing with time is seeing other versions of characters,” he teased. “And other versions of the titular character in particular.”

His statement seemingly confirms previous circulating rumors that various iterations of Loki are set to appear in the series such as Kid Loki and Lady Loki. However, the outlet notes that he declined to comment on whether or not the events from the upcoming series would also tie into Doctor Strange 2, despite previously confirming in 2019 that both of them would indeed have a connection, just like with WandaVision.

Hiddleston also expressed how it was exciting for him to show fans more of what Loki is capable of beyond his shapeshifting abilities, revealing that the series will explore Loki’s powers in a way they have not yet been explored. Waldron also went opened up about the Time Variance Authority’s role in Loki’s story as early episodes will question whether the fan-favorite villain will help them or take over.

“Loki is a character that’s always reckoning with his own identity, and the TVA, by virtue of what they do, is uniquely suited to hold up a mirror to Loki and make him really confront who he is and who he was supposed to be,” Waldron said.

Hiddleston added, “[That] was very exciting because in the other films, there was always something about Loki that was very controlled. He seemed to know exactly what the cards in his hand were and how he was going to play them…. And Loki versus the TVA is Loki out of control immediately, and in an environment in which he’s completely behind the pace, out of his comfort zone, destabilized, and acting out.”

Loki sees the return of Golden Globe winner Tom Hiddleston as the fan-favorite mischievous titular villain, who was last seen in Avengers: Endgame, where he successfully had stolen the Tesseract during Iron Man and Ant-Man’s failed attempt to retrieve it. Because of this, the God of Mischief has been arrested by the Time Variance Authority, a bureaucratic organization that exists outside of time and space, due to the damage he had done with the timeline. Now, he must willingly work with the TVA in order to fix the reality he broke or else face deletion from existence.

The series will introduce MCU newcomers Sophia Di Martino (Yesterday, Flowers, Into the Badlands), Owen Wilson (The Royal Tenenbaums), Gugu Mbatha-Raw (Black Mirror: San Junipero), Cailey Fleming (The Walking Dead), and Richard E. Grant (Can You Ever Forgive Me?), Sasha Lane (American Honey) and Wunmi Mosaku (Lovecraft Country).

Loki hails from executive producer and head writer Michael Waldron (Rick and Morty), with Kate Herron as the director. Waldron is also the scribe for Sam Raimi’s Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, which Loki will reportedly have ties into just like with WandaVision and Spider-Man: No Way Home. Executive producers are Kevin Feige, Louis D’ Esposito, Victoria Alonso, Stephen Broussard, and Kate Herron.

ComingSoon is excited to debut an emotional clip from the film titled “I Just Tried to Survive.” In it, Gillars explains to her lawyer that she couldn’t give her life up in Germany during the war. “What was I supposed to do? Everybody likes to think that they’d always do the right thing, always make the right choice, but it is not like that in war,” says Gillars. “There is no right and wrong. There’s just death and survival. I did what I could to survive. What would you have done?”

Give the new American Traitor clip a watch below:

Check out the full synopsis for American Traitor below:

Based on the true story, American Traitor: The Trial of Axis Sally follows the life of American woman Mildred Gillars (Meadow Williams) and her lawyer (Al Pacino), who struggles to redeem her reputation. Dubbed “Axis Sally” for broadcasting Nazi propaganda to American troops during World War II, Mildred’s story exposes the dark underbelly of the Third Reich’s hate-filled propaganda machine, her eventual capture in Berlin, and subsequent trial for treason against the United States after the war.

Lucasfilm’s STAR WARS: RANGERS OF THE NEW REPUBLIC Series is Currently Not in Active Develoment

lucasfilms-star-wars-rangers-of-the-new-republic-series-is-currently-not-in-active-develoment.jpg

A few months ago Lucasfilm announced a new live-action Star Wars series that was in development titled Rangers of the Old Republic. Well, according to Variety, the spin-off “is not currently in active development”. It seems the show has been put on the back-burning for now.

They don’t explain why, but when the project was announced it was speculated that the show would prominently feature Gina Carano‘s character Cara Dune. As you know, Carano’s working relationship recently came to an end after she posted some controversial posts on social media. Also at one point, Carano had her own spin-off series that was canceled.

Even though this project has been seemingly been shelved, for the time being, there are several other Star Wars projects in development that we can look forward to watching. Those include Andor, Ahsoka, Obi-Wan Kenobi, The Book of Boba Fett, and The Acolyte. However, I will say, I was looking forward to watching Rangers of the Old Republic.

Hopefully, Lucasfilm eventually puts it back into development.

The DUNGEONS & DRAGONS TV Series Might Focus on the Drow Ranger Character Drizzt

the-upcoming-dungeons-dragons-tv-series-might-focus-on-the-drow-ranger-character-drizzt.jpg

A few months ago we learned that there was a live-action Dungeons & Dragons series in development, which is in addition to the film that is currently in production.

The series is being written and developed by Derek Kolstad, the creator and writer behind the John Wick franchise. Now we have some information to share with you that might shed some light on the character that the series could focus on.

The story “might be” focusing on a popular drow ranger character named Drizzt Do’Urden. Wizards of the Coast recently announced a summer-long celebration of the character, whose popularity came from a series of D&D fantasy novels by R.A. Salvatore.

The upcoming celebration will include several pieces of merchandise and tie-ins, including “action figures, Magic: The Gathering cards, Funko POP figures, Halloween costumes, t-shirts, replica scimitars and more.” The press release then went on to say, “a live action TV show is in development with eOne entertainment and, although not focused on Drizzt, a movie set in the Forgotten Realms starring Chris Pine, Hugh Grant, Rege-Jean Page, Michelle Rodriguez, Sophia Lillis, and Justice Smith is in production.”

When asked for clarification on what that means, Wizards of the Coast confirmed that the upcoming Dungeons & Dragons movie was “not focused on Drizzt, but there is a TV show in development that might be.”

Kolstad previously hinted that his D&D TV show would be set in the Underdark, which is a massive series of caverns that spreads over entire continents. This is a big connection to the character Drizzt because most of the drow live in the Underdark. CB speculates that the show could focus on “Drizzt’s early life growing up in the drow city of Menzoberranzan, also known as the city of Spiders.”

“Born” in the 80s, Drizzt is very much as relevant today as he was then and continues to be a hero for new and old fans discovering or rediscovering him. He may not have the biggest sword but he does what is right even when it is the hard choice, with themes including:

  • The battle between our principles and beliefs and the things in our life that challenge them.

  • The evils and fundamental unfairness of racism, bigotry and other forms of narrow-minded thinking.

  • The strength of family, friendship, and loyalty.

  • The importance of living life fully and bravely.

What do you think about the series possibly focusing on the character Drizzt? Here’s a little animated short film for you to watch offering some insight on the character, which was narrated by Benedict Cumberbatch.
