Captain America: The Winter Soldier trailer strikes

The first trailer has arrived for Marvel’s Captain America: The Winter Soldier. Watch it and then we’ll talk…

As you can see, the tone is very different then the first film. It’s more modern, more gritty. Feels more like a Bourne movie than a Capt. one.

I am not a fan of Capt, I always thought he is one of the weak heroes of Marvel but this trailer is very good, I must admit. It may also provide the much needed change to the character.

James Spader has been officially cast as the villain Ultron and will face off against Earth’s Mightiest Heroes in Marvel’s Avengers: Age of Ultron, the sequel to 2012′s record-breaking The Avengers. James will be the voice of the character.

Spader earned three Emmy Awards for his role as Alan Shore on “Boston Legal” and “The Practice,” and will return to television this fall in NBC’s highly anticipated series “The Blacklist.” Most recently Spader was seen in the critically-acclaimed film “Lincoln” directed by Steven Spielberg and has previously worked with a long list of accomplished film directors including David Cronenberg, Curtis Hansen, Sidney Lumet, Mike Nichols, Tim Robbins, Robert Rodriguez, Steven Soderbergh, and Oliver Stone. David Mamet also directed Spader in the Broadway play Race.

I’m not sure… Here you see a photo of Avi Arad on the set of “The Amazing Spider-Man 2″ showcases a soundstage with the branding “Sinister 6″ on it.

My friend, this kind of action only adds fuel to the rumors… Not that I’m complaining… So maybe the villain team of the same name will start forming here, in the second installment of the rebooted Spidey franchise.

Sony has also unveiled several new official stills from the sequel, check them out below…

Take a look at these superheroes turned fantastic fiction characters.

Über cool if you ask me…

Ben Affleck is officially Batman

Hahaha, I’m sorry, ahem… It’s official, Ben Affleck will play Bruce Wayne/Batman in Zack Snyder’s still untitled Batman vs. Superman.

The studio made the announcement a few hours ago. Affleck’s name wasn’t among the rumored names despite his high profile, so the studio was able to keep this hidden.

Greg Silverman, Warner Bros.’ president of creative development and worldwide production, says: “We knew we needed an extraordinary actor to take on one of DC Comics’ most enduringly popular superheroes, and Ben Affleck certainly fits that bill, and then some. His outstanding career is a testament to his talent, and we know he and Zack will bring new dimension to the duality of this character.”

Ben is an extraordinary DIRECTOR, as an actor, not really.

And Snyder adds:

“Ben provides an interesting counterbalance to Henry’s Superman. He has the acting chops to create a layered portrayal of a man who is older and wiser than Clark Kent and bears the scars of a seasoned crime fighter, but retain the charm that the world sees in billionaire Bruce Wayne. I can’t wait to work with him.”

One wonders why superheroes are being recycled among a select few. Human Torch becomes Captain America, Deadpool becomes Green Lantern…

Warners has slated the film for release on July 17th 2015.

The new issue of Total Film includes a “Man of Steel” cover story that boasts the first official color still that shows Henry Cavill in full costume. Amy Adams’ Lois Lane is also there.

Am I the only one who thinks Henry is too self-conscious and fake-looking?
