In fact, one well-known figure was even offered the role before Perry was hired as one-sixth of the major cast. Perry’s path to joining Friends wasn’t simple, since the actor was
With Phase Four already filled up on both the movie and Disney+ sides, that leaves Phase Five as the earliest we could see the Fantastic Four introduced, and even then they could be saved for towards the end of the Phase, i.e. around 2025 or so. Still, they will pop up at some point, and
Simon Pegg and Juno Temple star in the upcoming drama Lost Transmissions, and the official trailer for the movie has been released online by Gravitas Ventures.

Disney may not be the first name in martial arts epics, but it looks like that’s what the studio is poised to deliver with this month’s Mulan.

Ben Affleck says Justice League was plagued with “one problem after another.” The movie hit theaters just over two years ago, disappointing fans and critics all over the world.
