Here’s a glimpse of the ‘Batman v. Superman’ flick

Finally, we’re able to see what’s in store for us in the DC Universe with the first trailer of Batman v. Superman film. Of course, it looks epic from the get-go. The Zack Snyder-led film shows us what happened after Superman took on General Zod and its effect on Metropolis and Gotham City. We see that Bruce Wayne was in Metropolis when the big battle happened. And that seemed to serve as a catalyst for him to become Batman and put a stop to Superman. Also, we see Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor and Gal Gadot getting to don the Wonder Woman suit.

Behind-the-scenes reel of new 'Star Wars' film shows new details

Fresh out  of the San Diego Comic Con, we get more details or at least a behind-the-scenes look at the upcoming Star Wars film a.k.a. Star Wars: The Force Awakens. And we have to say we're pretty stoked with what we're seeing so far. We get soundbites from some of the fresh faces on the franchise and just see actors and crew members being generally excited to be working on a Star Wars set. We see the likes of Carrie Fisher and Harrison Ford on set. Peter Mayhew inside the iconic Chewbacca costume. And yes, we see a lot of alien costumes, droids, storm troopers, TIE Fighters, and the comeback of the Millennium Falcon with a new pilot onboard. 

There seems to be an emphasis on mixing pre-digital and digital effects into this film. And the J.J. Abrams-led film is stressing how they're building real sets and using pre-digital means to make this film happen.

New ‘Spider-Man’ film gets a new Aunt May in Marisa Tomei

Perhaps just to make you feel a bit older or it just keeps in line with the younger approach to the Spider-Man reboot. The new Aunt May for the upcoming film will be Oscar-winning actress Marisa Tomei. She’ll be co-starring with up-and-coming actor Tom Holland, who shall be taking up the titular role. Holland is 19 years old, so perhaps it makes sense to make Aunt May a bit younger. Tomei is already 50 years old but she is still younger than the other two aunts of Peter Parker that were cast before. Sally Field was 65 when she was in The Amazing Spider-Man in 2012 and Rosemary Harris was 75 when she first played the role in Spider-Man back in 2002. The film is expected to come out on July 28, 2017.

The official trailer for Aaron Sorkin's 'Steve Jobs' movie is out

Noah Wylie, Ashton Kutcher and now Michael Fassbender have tried to become onscreen versions of Steve Jobs. The upcoming  Danny Boyle directed 'Steve Jobs,' which comes to theatres on October 9, was penned by Aaron Sorkin (West Wing, The Newsroom) and is based off the Walter Isaacson's Jobs biography (which was commissioned by Steve Jobs but derided by some of his closest colleagues including Tim Cook and Jony Ive.

The latest, and I suspect not the last, Jobs biopic is supposedly made up of three acts leading up to three impactful product launches in Steve Jobs (and Apple's) history. It also explores Jobs' relationship with his daughter Lisa. Oh, and Seth Rogen plays Woz.
