The confirmation of Batman ’s appearing in the Man of Steel sequel — and the vector sum bustle of cast rumors — has done the impossible , which is make the great unwashed stop asking whether Lex Luthor will look in the sequel . While absolutely nothing is corroborate , Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy and Zero Dark Thirty actor Mark Strong gave a coy non - resolution when asked … which also probably entail nothing , but it ’s not a definite denial either , so why not ?
It ’s also a somewhat amusing rumor , inasmuch as Strong is already the theoretic main villain of another Warner Bros. superhero franchise , since he was Sinestro in Green Lantern . So , if nothing else , his utter non - concern for his existing superhero dedication belike bang the room access shut still further on Green Lantern 2 , which is n’t a bad matter . [ Digital Spy ]
Chronicle adept Dane DeHaan discusses his character , new addition Harry Osborn :
I think what this interpretation of Spider - Man does is it accept the Spider - Man characters and puts them in advanced culture . So I set about to look at Harry as , how does a person like this survive in modern day civilisation — and to me , he ’s a trust monetary fund child . He grew up in New York City and he uses his wealth to obliterate his problems , like he almost uses his wealth to buy happiness . And I think there ’s a big hipster trust - stock baby culture that kind of jibe the right way into that worldly concern . So that was kind of my direction in , or start up in that world .
Director Neill Blomkamp discusses the movie ’s former origins :
Yeah , it ’s like , you know , these organic things that just sort of — you never really know when they begin or finish , to a degree . I got stop in Tijuana like — but no , it was n’t really honest , because I had n’t done anything . I just got — I got “ rock down ” would be a good description , I think . And I end up walking along weirdly , like , quite close to the U.S. border , and at night with , like , Black Hawks fly up and down because of the naval base . And that was when I was 25 , so that was before District 9 . And I always think that that double and that concept , you experience , that an time of day before I was on the other side of the fence , stick with me so much that I thought someday that would turn into something . And essentially Elysian Fields really is that , you know , it ’s that event .
He also explains why the extremist - fat in the pic specifically speak English and French :
There ’s two things : the one is metaphor and just trying to stick dead on target to metaphor . So when you ’re talking about metaphor , correctly now — I specifically did n’t require to include China because it just complicates affair — but decent now riches is contain within North America and Europe . So they ’re going to be talk English or European languages . And it happened to be Gallic because Jodie is facile in French . So you would presumptively have many other speech occur on the place within European terminology , to hold true to the metaphor . So that ’s the metaphor part of it . The other metaphor part actually is wanting to — it ’s like me being in Tijuana . It ’s like wanting to flip the tip of view for Americans , where this is what it feel like to be on the other side of the fencing look over the fence , you know . In this showcase , it ’s seem up at Elysian Fields , but it ’s kind of flipping America into a dilapidate , broken , more economically depress America . So I want those two things , the languages on the station and the metaphor of America being broken .
And then the third matter is painting this naturalistic look-alike of a next Earth that is my realistic version of a future Earth , which mean the molding being score out entirely and experience this fluid population group that essentially travel from Chile all the style up to Canada . It just flows , because it can . It ’s kind of like the EU [ European Union ] . Like , much more — like the EU on sex hormone . [ … ] I just wanted that to feel material , like , as real as possible , and the numbers of mass that are Latin are go to overwhelm the numbers of people that are n’t . And if you , again , hold dependable to the metaphor , the riches would have gone to the station .

In casing anyone heard that Disney ’s first animated adaptation of a Marvel property would be the relatively little - remembered manga serial Big Hero 6 and thought , “ Wait … what ? ” , here ’s Disney animation head John Lasseter to explain :
It ’s based upon a very short series of comical books and it ’s six comic rule book . They ’re out of the Marvel existence , but more of a Japanese manga mode . We ’re make something ground upon that so it ’s really a Disney Animation production . A loose adaptation — like all adaptation are . They almost have to be .
There ’s more from Lasseter on other upcoming animation undertaking at the tie-in , for those who are curious . [ EW ]
Star Clark Gregg says that Agent Coulson might still be capable of die again , though he does n’t mean such a dreary supposed consequence is really what the show is all about :
You know , this is a cosmos where citizenry are vulnerable , so I do n’t think that anyone ’s safe — including Agent Coulson . That said , it ’s a hopeful show . It ’s an optimistic world . What ’s playfulness about this for me , and what I ’ve always loved about the comics and about sci - fi is that there ’s a way you could tell a story in an inventive existence that you ca n’t in exacting Platonism . you’re able to take who we are correctly now and project it onwards a little act , or put a slight spin on it that makes us look at who we are through a lens system that ’s more real than substantial . TV feel like the sodding , serialized rendering of that . So to see the first distich of scripts , to see the way that they ’ve found the thing that ’s bigger than anything I ’ve ever seen on TV , and yet to see the man of that earth represented is really exciting for me .
He also explains why Coulson has moved from recruiting superheroes to recruiting mere mortals :
I think The Avengers have been recruited . We ’d have to go to Director Fury to find out why he ’s now tax him to do this . I think it ’s unclouded he mail Coulson to the hot zona he ’s gone . We ’re in a earth after The Avengers where people have gone from know about Tony Stark and The Hulk , for a moment , before he was contained , to a world with a wormhole and alien invaders in New York , and these guys from Asgard who are problem . A fate of masses desire in on that action , and some of them are n’t very nice . That enjoin , I retrieve it ’s a vehicle for dealing with other new superheroes from the Marvel Universe sometimes , but also all kinds of honest-to-goodness and new SHIELD business .

In some truly non - disgraceful news , the first episode of ABC ’s Alice in Wonderland riff is going to be called “ Down the Rabbit Hole . ” I retrieve we can formally begin the countdown clock for when there ’s an episode called “ Through the Looking Glass , ” though that feel more like a close title . [ SpoilerTV ]
Being Human ’s Michael Socha discuss his role as the Knave of Hearts :
The Knave break Alice out of the mental institution . It ’s like a brotherly - sisterly , look out for each other role . The Knave is quite a lonely character . He does n’t want to go back to Wonderland , but he will do it , and only for Alice . I think the only person he give a shit about is Alice .
How much have you been told about their backstory , which gave them that kind of a relationship?I ca n’t wait to find out . I ’ve heard a petty chip . evidently Alice pay back the Knave back his heart . I ca n’t wait to read the account as to where he lost his sum . I ’m still waiting .

( Also , I do n’t think her beloved interest will be Batman . ) [ EW ]
Meanwhile , executive manufacturer Marc Guggenheim has tweeted this design for a vanguard that will appear in season two . While it seems unbelievable that Metamorpho would look on the show — although if they ’re find a way to include The Flash , possibly all stakes are off — they are at least include a nice acknowledgment of old Rex Mason .

Starz ’s time travel show from Battlestar Galactica ’s Ronald D. Moore has contrive one — actually , make that two — of its main theatrical role , as Tobias Menzies has join the roll in the threefold role of both Frank Randall and his antecedent “ Black Jack ” Randall .
Known for his HBO roles as Edmure Tully on Game of Thrones and Brutus on Rome , Menzies also recently appeared in the Doctor Who episode “ Cold War ” and as a Goolding Inquiry extremity on The Thick of It , which I mostly mention because I chance to be watching that last dark . Anyway , here ’s the description of his character , as well as a helpful overview of the show :
The “ Outlander ” serial spans the musical genre of romance , science fabrication , story , and adventure in one epic narrative . It follows the history of Claire Randall , a married combat nanny from 1945 who is enigmatically sweep back in meter to 1743 , where she is right away confuse into an unknown worldly concern where her aliveness is threaten . When she is forced to get hitched with Jamie Fraser , a chivalrous and amorous new Scottish warrior , a passionate affair is ignited that tears Claire ’s heart between two vastly unlike man in two irreconcilable life history .
Frank Randall is Claire ’s twentieth C husband and a professional historian with a deep interest in the 18th one C and his own genealogy . Frank and Claire are reunite in 1945 , after being separated by the warfare . They are rekindling their kinship when Claire suddenly vanish . Jonathan “ Black Jack ” Randall is Frank ’s ancestor from the eighteenth century . A Captain in the English Army station into Scotland during a clock time when rising was plethoric . The nickname is no error , while Black Jack Randall may look striking like , he is nothing like the gentle , bookish Frank ; he is a dark , trigger-happy man who will take what he wants at any cost .
Menzies is the secondly support cast extremity , joining Sam Heughan as Jamie Fraser .
