Kevin Feige confirms ‘Black Panther 2’

Marvel/Walt Disney Studios

Seems like a no-brainer that the box office success Black Panther will be getting a sequel. But now we get official world from Marvel Studios President Kevin Feige. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Feige was quoted saying “We absolutely will do that.” But, as expected, he doesn’t reveal any plot secrets. There is a promise that it will flow organically from the first film because the filmmakers have discussed this even while making the first film.

"One of the favorite pastimes at Marvel Studios is sitting around on a part one and talking and dreaming about what we would do in a part two," Feige said. "There have been plenty of those conversations as we were putting together the first 'Black Panther.' We have ideas and a pretty solid direction on where we want to head with the second one."

Disney is being accused of plagiarizing the ‘Solo: A Star Wars Story’ poster design

Unless you’re living under a rock, you’ve probably seen the Solo: A Star Wars Story movie posters. And now one French artist claims Disney plagiarized his work. Hachim Bahous designed a series of album covers for Sony Music France and he says this became the template that Disney followed to create the posters for Solo. He posted the two designs side by side on his Facebook saying (originally in French): “I am flattered that the quality of my work is recognized, but it is still pure and simple forgery, I have not be asked for my permission, I wish to be credited and paid for this work I have done for Sony!”

‘Ralph Breaks the Internet: Wreck-It Ralph 2’ gets first trailer

If you haven’t seen the 2012 Disney film Wreck-It Ralph, the story followed a pair of classic arcade game characters who were looking for the purpose behind their programming and somehow ended up discovering more about themselves in the process. What happens when they end up being hooked up to the internet for the very first time? That’s the premise behind Ralph Breaks the Internet: Wreck-It Ralph 2. We have Ralph (played by John C. Reilly) and Vanellope (Sarah Silverman) on another adventure but this time in the expansive, somewhat dangerous, and incredibly addictive World Wide Web. As The Verge points out, it looks like the film carries on with the nice undercurrent of satire with this film and we’re excited to see it. It hits theatres on November 21, 2018.

‘Kingdom Hearts III’ still doesn’t have a release date, enters ‘Monsters Inc.’ world

For fans of the game, we finally have some updates for the upcoming Kingdom Hearts III game. Square Enix unveiled a new trailer and song for the title during D23 Expo Japan 2018, whetting our appetites for its impending release. Unfortunately, we don’t get an exact date yet of when the game is coming out. All the teasers still have “Coming 2018.” Square Enix CEO Yosuke Matsuda hinted that the release could come at or before E3 conference in June, so we could expect the game to be out for the holidays. The game will be released on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

What we do get is a new trailer. As we see in the clip above, there’s a new world coming to this popular Disney x Final Fantasy crossover: the Monsters Inc. world. The game also gets a new theme song from Japanese Pop superstar Hikaru Utada called “Don’t Think Twice.” She has also done the theme songs for the first two games. Series director Tetsuya Nomura showed some behind-the-scenes clips at D23 that detailed the production and design of Kingdom Hearts III. One thing showed was how you can fly the Gummi ship through an open-world, 360-degree space.
