Harry Potter spin-off to be a trilogy

JK Rowling announced today that her Harry Potter spin-off ‘fantastic beasts and where to find them’ will be a trilogy.
In the reality of the “Potter-verse”, the book is a textbook used to teach the pupils at Hogwarts.

Warner Bros chief, Kevin Tsujihara said that the film is neither a sequel nor a prequel but an “extension” on the universe.

The story is set in New York, 70-years before we meet Harry.
The protagonist of the movie is Newt Scamander, the author of a guide about magical creatures.



The film marks Rowling’s debut as a screenwriter.

I’m actually intrigued by this premise. It’s refreshing to see a franchise expanding its universe rather than churn out an unnecessary prequel or sequel. If successful, I think many existing franchises will follow suit.

More than 450 million copies of Rowling’s seven Harry Potter books have been sold worldwide.

Turtles trailer

Below is the first trailer for Michael Bay’s reimagining of the Ninja Turtles. I don’t quite know what to say…
I’ll let the trailer speak for itself.

The film is out October 14th.

Ghostbusters 3?

The director of the first two Ghostbuster films, Ivan Reitman announced today that Ghostbusters 3 will shoot in early 2015, but he won’t be directing it.
This news comes as a bit of a surprise after the recent death of Harold Ramis.
Ghostbusters 3 has been in development hell for nearly three decades. Bill Muarry has been very outspoken in the past about not wanting to be involved, so it’s unlikely that he will appear. As recent as 2013 Dan Akroyd stated that Ghostbusters 3 would centre around a new generation of Ghostbusters-with the originals acting as mentors and passing on the torch.

What do you think, does the world need another Ghostbusters? Let us know below.

Star Wars news

After nearly two years of speculation we have finally been teased with a little info about the highly anticipated Star Wars Episode VII.
The film will be set 30-years after the events in return of the Jedi and will focus on a new trio of heroes, with some yet unconfirmed cameos from the original stars.
Lucasfilm also confirmed today that filming will begin in London, in May.
I am ridiculously excited about this film, I grew up on Star Wars and I can’t wait to take my kids to their first official Star Wars experience. May the force be with all of us.

DC and Marvel to battle it out in the cinema

They’ve been rivals in the comic book world for years, now they will battle it out in the cinema.
Marvel announced today that June 6th 2016 will be the release date of Captain America 3. June 6th is also the date for the delayed Batman vs Superman movie. It will be interesting to see how each movie affects the other.
Growing up, I was a DC kid, so I’ll be seeing Batman vs Superman before I see Captain America 3.

NBC have revealed the first in costume picture of Matt Ryan in Constantine.
Based on the hugely popular Hellblazer comics, the pilot will see the adventures of John Constantine as he captures escaped demons and returns them to hell.
The project is the first attempt at bringing Constantine to the screen since Keanu Reeves played the role in 2005.
