New Black Panther: Wakanda Forever Images Show Nakia in Mourning

Nakia #Nakia

We’ve got some Thunderbolts casting gossip, a Black Adam poster, and a clip from one of my most-anticipated new spooky season films, My Best Friend’s Exorcism, based on the book by Grady Hendrix. Also! Don’t miss the newest images from Werewolf by Night, the MCU creature feature we’ve been waiting for. Spoilers, sound off!

Now You See Me 3

Deadline reports Ruben Fleischer (Venom, Uncharted) is attached to direct the third film in the Now You See Me franchise of magician/heist movies. The outlet notes Seth Grahame-Smith (Pride and Prejudice and Zombies) is currently writing a new draft of the screenplay from Eric Warren Singer (Top Gun: Maverick).

Jurassic World 4

Without getting into details, Colin Trevorrow stated “there’s more to come” for Dichen Lachman’s Jurassic World: Dominion character, Soyona Santos, in a recent interview with Empire.

This movie clearly takes a real interest in creating new characters that a new generation is going to latch on to –- Kayla Watts [DeWanda Wise], and Mamoudou Athie’s character Ramsay Cole, who I think, in the Extended Edition, you really feel his purpose in a greater way. And Dichen Lachman’s character [Soyona Santos], who just gets arrested at the end, there’s more to come.

I never knew that this was the ending of the franchise until I saw the marketing. Those guys are brilliant at what they do, but for me I think it might have been clearer if they’d said, ‘The end of an era’, as opposed to all of it, because regardless of the cynical approach — of course they’re gonna want to make more money, which is what Jurassic World was about — a new dinosaur fan is born every day.

Thunderbolts

According to The Ankler’s Jeff Sneider (via the Hot Mic podcast), Harrison Ford is (or at least was) in talks to take over the role of General Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross from the late William Hurt in Thunderbolts.

Black Panther: Wakanda Forever

Relatedly, four new Wakanda Forever images from the latest issue of Empire magazine have surfaced online.

Agatha: Coven of Chaos

In conversation with Entertainment Tonight, Elizabeth Olsen revealed there are currently no plans for the Scarlet Witch to appear in the Agatha Harkness series Coven of Chaos, but she’d “love to pop up” in some capacity.

I mean, no, but I would love to pop up. I love Kathryn [Hahn], I don’t want to leave her side ever, I’m so grateful she’s here tonight. We do think, ‘Gosh, we just gotta do it again!’ We just had a really great time making that show, and with Paul [Bettany], it was really a special time, so we would love to get the gang back.
