It ’s not good morning without some anonymously sourced casting rumor ! The belated is that Terry O’Quinn , well known for playing Locke on Lost , is on the short list to play Lex Luthor . [ Superman Super Site ]
Producer Charles Roven tell that the approximation for the sequel ’s been around for a while , and that they have a first draft to work off of :
We had a sketch of an approximation , the beats of a storey that David Goyer exploit on with Zack . We have a first draft , and we ’re continuing to work with it . Those scripts are never fully wind up until the movie is in the theaters . We roll in the hay the character — we think that Ben ( Affleck ) is hold out to be a really bang-up and interesting Batman .
He also has an solution to the interrogation of “ Why Ben Affleck ? WHY ? ” :
We wanted a guy who had a certain age and a sealed gravitas to what he had done in terms of his recent work . If you take a look at ‘ The Town ’ and ‘ Argo , ’ he plays a twosome of serious guys in those picture . He ’s a with child man . He ’s also a mature man . As you see him and Henry together , one definitely has much more experience just by look at him . That ’s what we want , particularly juxtapose against our Superman .

Roven ’s also working on the Warcraft moving picture , and which is apparently get all set to go in Vancouver :
I have a with child cooperator in Alex Gartner , who ’s in Vancouver with our director Duncan Jones . I was there last week . I ’m in an editing elbow room on ‘ American Hustle ’ and in the production office in Pasadena on ‘ Batman ’ and fly up to Vancouver for ‘ Warcraft , ’ which will set out in former January .
The viral tumblrThe Daily Buglehas an article state that the physical structure of Dr. Rajit Ratha was recover . The character , played by Irrfan Khan , had his death panorama thin from the first Amazing Spider - Man , so this clause may reassert that the deleted scene is still canon for the purposes of the sequel .

Chris Pratt really want to play Peter Quill , and he told The Huffington Post just how much he did to get the part :
For me it find like a everlasting fit right off the bat . I matte up like at myvery first audition that I nailed it , but , I was afraid that I wasn’tphysically right for it because I was still passably enceinte from this moving picture . And so I just cogitate , If they could just believe in me , then I can fall back this exercising weight , then I ’ll get this part . But I had a notion it was a little too much weight to anticipate anyperson to turn a loss — I was determined at that stage . I was like , Well , you cognize what , if I ’m not going to get this , that ’s o.k. . But no one isever going to tell me that I ’m too fat for a part again . I ’m going tostart get in shape . So I started make in shape right away . . . . Then , correctly at Jan 1st , Istarted shape out . Then around the 15th , this audition came up . So Ihad lost probably 10 pounds … but I was still around 280 and that’stoo giving to be a Marvel fictional character . But , it was in the audition . I mean , Iknew he had my spirit — I knew that my spirit was right . And I knew it sounded aright , I just did n’t look powerful yet .
Pratt also sound out that the movie ’s got the balance of drama and humor that seems to be the destination of all the Marvel movies :
It should be really fun . I think it should be really fun . But , thatbeing said , it demand the striking beats badly . I men , it takesitself seriously when it call for to . Just as a whole it does n’t takeitself too in earnest . But , it definitely takes it ’s dramatic momentsseriously . And the striking bow and the bits of emotion that you’resupposed to feel something that you ’re hypothesize to feel something that Ithink you really will . But , hopefully , it will be because it ’s anchoredto this clowning . Like , to the comedy that experience in it . If you tie comedyand drama together , than you do n’t have to go as self-aggrandising to get laughs andyou do n’t have to go as big to get a real excited reaction .

Remember thatproduction photoshowing J.J. Abrams with R2 - D2 ? The other guy cable in the picture are Lee Towersey and Oliver Steeples , extremity of the oecumenical R2 - D2 Builders Club , who have been employ to make astromech droids for Episode VII . This seems to confirm that Artoo , at least , will be in the continuation .

Steeples said that the whole thing started when Kathleen Kennedy see them at Celebration Europe last summer . He semi - joked about being available , and she recommended them to the yield . Towersey , on the other hand , explained a bit more about what they ’re doing :
We cognise the pressures of filming , prepping , and being capable to ascertain reliability throughout the shoot . We have a good knowledge of Artoo , with a with child gunstock of parts for reference and drawings , plus we have a go at it what is involved throughout the whole building process , as well as likely problem we need to debar .
Bleeding Cool ’s taken what we already know and made some educated guesses about the next season . First , the math on the regenerations is all confused now . Steven Moffat ’s still calling Capaldi ’s presently - to - be Doctor the 12th Doctor , but John Hurt ’s theatrical role is a positive feedback . Which would make Capaldi the 13th regeneration and , theoretically , the “ last . ” But now rumors are suppose that Capaldi ’s in reality going to be play the result of what occur when the Doctor locomote on past twelve positive feedback , aided by the Sisters of Karn .
For Capaldi ’s first season , there ’s rumor of Frank Cottrell Boyce writing a two - episode Dalek story that ’ll be directed by Ben Wheatley . The whole tone for the season is allege to be based on the mediaeval way Philip Hinchcliffe brought to the Hellenic series when he produced it . [ Bleeding Cool ]
“ Day of the Doctor ” is so penny-pinching , so wait a band of promo stuff this calendar week . First , there ’s Steven Moffat excuse that the thought was to really research the Doctor as a character , as well as once again hint that there ’s something endure that ’ll pass :
Most Doctor Who stories are n’t about the Doctor . They ’re about people he encounter , monsters he get the better of and plans he louse up . But this is the Day of the Doctor . This one will stick with him andchange certain ways he thinks .

Next , have David Tennant ’s introduction of the episode :
Finally , an interview with Jenna Coleman . [ Blogtor Who ]
go along with the medico Who 5oth Anniversary rabidity is the docudrama focalise on the inception of the serial . David Bradley , who star as William Hartnell , aver that part of the point of the projection is to put the fifty years in perspective and that viewers will be remind that the creators of the show did n’t know how long it would last :
It ’s about the devising of it , and the characters like Sidney Newman , Verity Lambert , and Waris Hussein , and the problems they had of gettingit greenlit and persuading people like Hartnell to be in it , because itwas a very unpromising projection at the very offset . The benefit ofhindsight , with 50 years , [ multitude are probable to be ] imagining itarriving fully formed 50 age ago , where someone plump a handwriting on aproducer ’s desk and said ‘ read that , ’ he say it , and said ‘ yep ! That’sgreat . It ’s going to be a hit , we ’ll befuddle money at that , and we ’ll doit . ’ But of trend , it was a much rockier road than that to get it made , and it was fascinating , for me , to encounter out the human drama of what ittook to get it run low .
He also says that the focus is just on the very first few years , so we wo n’t be see Bradley playing Hartnell repay in”The Three Dr. ” :
No , it does n’t admit that . It go off with the genesis of the melodic theme , and it ends up when heleaves . Of course , his calling after that went down , through illness , andit was n’t the variety of work he require to do . I think it was ill healththat beat him in the end . Not only do we quicken the episodes , but hislife at home with his wife and his granddaughter ; his relationship withthe other characters in Doctor Who off sieve as well . When they’resitting around play cards or having a cigarette in between scenes … and it go behind it all , and shows his personal relationship . It’snot just his professional one .

Joss Whedon state that , while Marvel buff have already suppose that Coulson ’s a Life Model Decoy , there ’s going to be more to the story :
We know that there ’s going to be a lot of theory and there ’s no chancethat whatever we disclose wo n’t , at some full stop , be write on theinternet . We ’re just trying to do up with ways to makeit surprising or make it not how they expect it to unravel . We knowwhat it is , but we know that no one else does yet .
Whedon also said there ’s a “ strong chance ” of a Stan Lee cameo in the serial , he also confirmed hearsay that the show would be contain the events of Captain America : The Winter Soldier into its electric discharge :
Nick Fury is in that one , and S.H.I.E.L.D. stimulate an appearance , so we willdefinitely seek to tee up - up some stuff and in all likelihood play a piddling routine ofthe fallout from that film . We ’re hoping to do some coolstuff .
Jared Padalecki make some hints about where the Sam and Ezekiel storyline is going :
We do get to see that Zeke is heal Sam . We do see Sam start to not necessitate so much assistant from Zekeand his brother . So we will gradually see more bits of Sam more oftenthan Zeke in the upcoming episodes , which does n’t have in mind we wo n’t see Zekeas well .
Sam’sno dumb biscuit and even though Sam ’s not doing too hot , he can enjoin hisbrother ’s playact a piffling minute weird . And Ezekiel , every metre thishappens , is wipe Sam ’s brain and Sam ’s smart enough to go , ‘ expect asecond , how did I get here ? ’ The tension definitelyrises because Sam is bug out to catch on .
The whole affair ’s going to cause Sam to ask some heavy dubiousness and fare to new conclusions :
We in spades do see that Sam value his life history , but he also values biography . And kind of says , ‘ Why am I more important than this or than that ? ’ And I think it ’s a good piazza for Sam to be and I thinkwe’ll certainly see more of Sam enunciate , ‘ Listen Dean , I recall I ’ve donemy bit . ’

Everything is getting shaken up and falling aside because ofthe situation he ’s been and the office he ’s put himself in . Whether it ’s at Ultra , having lost partners and being circumvent bydeath … People are starting to see him like a parasite at Ultra . Nobodywants to be affiliated with him .
