Great news for Constantine fans! Overnight several new sources, including EW, have broken the news that Matt Ryan has been promoted to a series regular on Legends of Tomorrow. The character has already appeared in two episodes of the current season. He is due to return for the season finale in April which will presumably setup his role in the shows fourth season. The only snag? The show has yet to be officially picked up for a fourth season. With the news of Ryan’s promotion that’s definitely a positive sign the show will be returning. CW president Mark Pedowitz has previously told…

Heroic Hollywood is running a report on production of The Batman. They believe that inside sources have confirmed the film will finally begin production sometime in 2019. Much to the behest of some fans this is actually great news for DC Films. Whilst 2018 belongs solely to Aquaman, this will allow Wonder Woman 2 to take centre stage in 2019 alongside Shazam! before Batman comes back to the fore. Matt Reeves confirmed late last year he had completed the story for the film. Currently the writer-director is working on the script. A 2019 kick-off for production could mean the film is currently occupying the June 5,…

Tomb Raider has opened this weekend with an estimated $126m worldwide. Though the news in North America that the film opened to $23.5m is a little disappointing the news elsewhere is much more encouraging. The film has opened in second place in the US falling slightly short of Black Panther which holds the top spot for a fifth consecutive week. Panther took in an approximate $27m to hold on to the top spot. It’s continues its hugely successful run as the only Marvel movie to last more than three weeks in the top spot. Tomb Raider has added an impressive $84.5m internationally. Highlights from this…

Earlier this year it was announced that longtime Batman writer Scott Snyder would be moving on. Following the completion of the Dark Knights Metal series he is moving on to a four-part Justice League miniseries dubbed “No Justice”. Following the end of that miniseries Snyder will take over writing duties on the full Justice League book. What we haven’t known is who would be drawing Snyder’s Justice League but also who the roster of heroes would be. It’s been teased for some time that the current League roster will be changing. Now thanks to a preview of artwork by Jorge Jimenez we know who to expect! CBR.com has uncovered a trade listing…

Overnight Deadline and other trades have carried a report that Warner Bros. and DC Films are working on an adaption of the New Gods property masterminded by Jack Kirby. The company has reportedly tapped A Wrinkle In Time director Ava DuVernay to helm the project. DuVernay made history by becoming the first female director of colour to direct a $100m+ project. A Wrinkle In Time hails from Disney but has failed to set critics and the box office alight. New Gods focusses on characters such as Big Barda, Granny Goodness, Orion, Metron and, of course, Darkseid. It first began back in 1971 with New Gods #1. More on this story as…

The guys at IMAX have proven again and again that they know how to put together a movie poster. For almost all of the big Hollywood releases of the last few years the IMAX artwork has been stunning. Most recently we’ve seen posters for Justice League and Black Panther which have shown off the companies flare for creativity. Overnight the company has released artwork for Ready Player One. Yet another stunning poster this one, much like its source material, is filled with easter eggs. It would be easy to get lost for hours to searching the poster for clues to the films storyline. Check it…
