TM Movie News: Warcraft, Insidious, Harley Quinn & more!

- by Steve Garcia, 17 May 2016

Happy Tuesday, my lovely Muties! IT’S MOVIE NEWS TIME!

Harley Quinn:
                                                                         
  • Harley’s getting a movie… kind of! Scooped by THR, Warner Bros. is apparently already thinking of what to do with the likes of the character after this summer’s Suicide Squad, so instead of giving Harley Quinn her own film, it’ll be yet another ensemble superhero film, the twist being that it’ll star an all-female cast! While it is unknown if that means Birds of Prey or the like, Batgirl is among the obvious names to costar. I’m personally hoping for a Gotham City Sirens sort of thing starring Harley, Poison Ivy, and Catwoman. Either way, it sounds fun! …Ya know, if that’s a thing WB wants to do instead of the whole grim dark, bloodthirsty, action figure thing. Stay tuned!

Insidious Chapter 4:
​
  • After Insidious Chapter 3 raked in over $112 million on a $10 million budget, you bet your ass they were gonna make another one! The release date was just announced over at Blumhouse.com as October 20, 2017. Check out the video confirmation, along with some other creepy goodies regarding the sequel!

Iron Man 3:
                                                                             
  • Did you know that Iron Man 3 had a very different villain from the get-go? While speaking with UPROXX, director Shane Black revealed that in the earliest drafts of the script, the villain who ultimately turned out to be played by Guy Pierce was originally supposed to be a woman. Why the change? Because Marvel corporate felt that it was a missed opportunity on action figure sales, as, according to them, kids wouldn’t want to buy toys featuring female characters. Funnily enough, I don’t ever recall ever seeing any Guy Pierce action figures at my local Target, but even if they did exist, was anybody gonna buy them anyway? While nobody specifically said it, the decision was thought to be made by Marvel CEO Ike Perlmutter, who’s been known to make decisions based on this sort of sexist thing. Of course, since then we’ve gotten a kickass female villain in Guardians of the Galaxy’s Nebula, along with a prominent female character in November’s Doctor Strange with Tilda Swinton’s gender-swapped The Ancient One, so at least we know that they’ve stepped into the 21st Century after all.

Jungle Book: Origins:
                                                            
  • Now that we’ve had our fun with Disney’s version, let’s get dark and scary with Andy Serkis’s upcoming Jungle Book: Origins! In an interview with Vulture, Serkis explained that his version of the story will be much closer to the original source material, match the tone of Fox’s new Planet of the Apes films, and is geared towards a “slightly older audience” than we’re used to. Bring it on! There’s room for both the happy version and the “real” version Serkis suggests as far as I’m concerned.
