WELCOME TO THE MARVEL MULTIVERSE -*RIP STAN LEE & Boseman* - XMEN97 release 3/20

Eh, in the comics Drax or at least the OG version could go toe to toe with the Hulk. Then the new version was made which was basically a green Riddick with red tribal tats and he was still able to kill Thanos but I dunno if his strength levels remained the same. I can't recall any big feats.

I'd say since in the MCU he's just an alien that wants to get revenge on Thanos he would be weaker than the comic version that was a human who was remade in to a green behemoth by Thanos' father to be designed specifically to kill Thanos no matter what.

I was a fan of OG Drax because he was a big green goofy space jock could go toe to toe with anyone (but easy to outsmart).

I don't know about the new Drax (stopped collecting long ago), but in GotG (film), he certainly had the goofy part down. However, from a combat standpoint, he was a muscular Hawkeye with knives.
 
REPORT: MARVEL EYEING RYAN COOGLER AS "BLACK PANTHER" DIRECTOR


According to HeroicHollywood, Marvel Studios wants "Fruitvale Station" director Ryan Coogler to helm their upcoming "Black Panther" film as director. It is unclear whether or not a deal has been offered at this time.

Ava DuVernay was originally offered the position but declined as she and the studio didn't see eye-to-eye on the project. "Straight Outta Compton's" F. Gary Gray was also considered before he took on "Furious 8" instead.

Joe Robert Cole, who comes from the same in-house writer's program that Nicole Perlman was part of when she wrote the first draft of "Guardians of the Galaxy," is also reportedly in negotiations to write the screenplay for the film.

In addition to "Fruitvale Station," Coogler has also worked with Michael B. Jordon on "Creed," which opens on November 25.

So far, the only sure thing about "Black Panther" is its lead, Chadwick Boseman. No other actors have been cast for the film, although Andy Serkis is expected to reprise his "Avengers: Age of Ultron" role of Ulysses Klaue, a character known for being a Black Panther foe in the comics.

Black Panther will make his Marvel Cinematic Universe debut in 2016's "Captain America: Civil War" before headlining his own film on February 16, 2018.

Should be cool if they get him. Didn't even know he's the guy directing Creed.
 
‘X-Men’ Marvel TV Dramas Set: FX Orders ‘Legion’ Pilot, Fox Developing ‘Hellfire’


In a two-project kinbergagreement between Marvel and Fox Networks Group, FX and Fox are moving ahead with two TV dramas set in the world of X-Men, both executive produced by the film franchise’s director, Bryan Singer, producer Lauren Shuler Donner and Simon Kinberg as well as Marvel TV’s Jeph Loeb and Jim Chory. FX has given a pilot order to Legion, written/executive produced by Fargo creator Noah Hawley, while Fox has closed deals to develop the long-rumored Hellfire (working title), created by Evan Katz (24: Live Another Day), Manny Coto (24), Patrick McKay (Star Trek 3) and JD Payne (Star Trek 3).

Neither series has the X-Men branding though both are set in the same universe and both stem from 20th Century Fox’s Marvel deal for the rights to the X-Men franchise, which has spawned 11 movies, including several that are in the pipeline. The deals expand Marvel’s live-action TV footprint, adding to the company’s two existing series and a pilot at ABC and four series and a limited series at Netflix.

Legion introduces the story of David Haller: Since he was a teenager, David has struggled with mental illness. Diagnosed as schizophrenic, David has been in and out of psychiatric hospitals for years. But after a strange encounter with a fellow patient, he’s confronted with the possibility that the voices he hears and the visions he sees might be real. He’s based on the Marvel comics character Legion, the son of X-Men founder Charles Xavier (played by Patrick Stewart and James McAvoy in the films), first introduced in 1985.

Hawley will write the pilot and serve as an executive producer with Shuler Donner, Singer, Kinberg, Loeb, Chory and John Cameron (Fargo). The pilot for Legion will be produced by FX Productions and Marvel Television, with FXP handling the physical production.

“Legion is just the sort of ambitious story that Noah excels at,” FX’s Nick Grad said. “His adaption of Fargo for television was one of the most acclaimed television events in recent memory. It’s also an honor to partner with Marvel on Legion and to enlist such an accomplished team of Executive Producers to create this pilot.”

Set in the late 1960s, Hellfire, produced by 20th Century Fox TV and Marvel Television, with 20th Century Fox handling the physical production – follows a young Special Agent who learns that a power-hungry woman with extraordinary abilities is working with a clandestine society of millionaires – known as “The Hellfire Club” – to take over the world. A different version of The Hellfire Club was previously seen as the primary antagonists of X-Men: First Class, led by Kevin Bacon’s Sebastian Shaw.

“We are thrilled to partner with Marvel to bring this world to television and build upon the Fox Logovibrant mythology that has captivated fans for years,” said Fox Entertainment president David Madden. “These powerful and dynamic characters are complicated and larger-than-life, the pace and visual imagination are unrelenting, and the story takes place during one of the most explosive eras in recent history. ”

McKay and Payne will write the pilot script, based on a story by Katz, Coto, McKay and Payne. Shuler Donner, Singer and Kinberg executive produce with Marvel TV’s Jeph Loeb and Jim Chory will executive-produce the pilot, alongside Katz and Coto, who will serve as showrunners.

If it's true then we can get skrulls....yesssss..

All we need now is for them to have control over the Xmen so we can get better movies and better cross overs.
 
It seems like a weird rumor. Trading Xmen tv rights for FF

Nah Xmen actually makes money for Fox. So they're not giving that cash cow up
 
Hmmmm. I think I've heard this rumor from 6 months ago. Maybe they were working on it all this time and deal is finally finished :nerd:

so if that rumor says F4 is one of the unannounced 3 projects marvel has planned for 2020, what's the other two rumored to be? :nerd:
 
"Having asked for some clarification from our source, we understand that the deal Marvel have made with Fox - which will see Fantastic Four returned to the Marvel fold in exchange for the X-Men TV rights - also includes the rights to villains Galactus and Doctor Doom, as well as the Silver Surfer."

Yeah, xmen is all that fox has since f4 has been a failure. They'll never give up the only thing they have and get left with nothing. Really interested in how the deadpool movie will be for them. I remember there was talk of maybe doing an x-force movie too.
 
You establish Jim Gordon as your moral center of Season 1 and then have him commit murder for his benefit in the very first episode of Season 2. Yea you're right there is nothing wrong with Gotham. :rolleyes
 
Oh, man. I hope that FF4 rumor is true.

If FOX still wants to pump out X-Men shows/movies, that's fine. lol.

That would be amazing if true though.... :pimp:
 
It would be awesome if they can keep it hush and F4 along with SS becomes a surprise during IW I-II against Thanos.

Impossible but would be great!
