Last week, I got the chance to put my questions to Men in Black 3 director Barry Sonnenfeld. While there has already been talk of a fourth instalment, it sounds as if he may have a very different project to tackle before that happens. When asked about what he thinks of the recent trend of successful superhero movies and whether there are any characters in particular he&apos;d like to bring to the big screen, the filmmaker revealed the following.

&quot;You know, I&apos;m talking to Warner Bros. about doing a franchise based on a comic that hasn&apos;t been around since the 60s. But it&apos;s too early to talk about it. But possibly, yes.&quot;

So, nothing concrete just yet, but this is very interesting indeed. While it&apos;s seemingly not a a big name DC superhero, the adaptation is obviously a character that the studio holds the rights to, so whether or not it&apos;s some sort</description><pubDate>Mon, 21 May 2012 12:28 MST</pubDate></item><item><title>Nathan Fillion DOES NOT Want To Play ANT-MAN</title><link>http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/GraphicCity/news/?a=60132</link><description>Attending the LA Times Hero Complex Film Festival, actor Nathan Fillion, who has a legion of loyal fans fielded a number of questions following a screening of Joss Whedon&apos;s 2005 film, Serenity.  Touching on everything from Ant-Man, to Wonder Woman and Uncharted, here&apos;s what Fillion had to say.  As reported by firsthowing.net.---

Fans were able to ask questions and it essentially turned into people asking about every project that has had Fillion&apos;s name attached to it over the past few years. Someone asked if he wants to play Ant-Man in Edgar Wright&apos;s upcoming Marvel film, and he shrugged and said, &quot;did you ever just love Ant-Man? Not me.&quot; He had a similar reaction to a question about a role [Steve Trevor] in a potential Wonder Woman movie, but perked up when the topic of the Uncharted movie came up, saying &quot;that would be great, because everyone wants their own Indiana</description><pubDate>Mon, 21 May 2012 11:29 MST</pubDate></item><item><title>KAPOW &apos;12: Gallery Of Photos From This Year&apos;s Event (Beautiful Cosplayers Included)</title><link>http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/JoshWildingNewsAndReviews/news/?a=60130</link><description>This year&apos;s Kapow!

In the epic action-adventure Snow White and the Huntsman, Kristen Stewart (Twilight) plays the only person in the land fairer than the evil queen (Oscar® winner Charlize Theron) who is out to destroy her. But what the wicked ruler never imagined is that the young woman threatening her reign has been training in the art of war with a huntsman (Chris Hemsworth, Thor) who was dispatched to kill her. Sam Claflin (Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides) joins the cast as the prince long enchanted by Snow White’s beauty and power.

Snow White &amp; The Huntsman, will open in theaters June 1, 2012.

Maybe the below vid, which features new footage, will provide a bit more info on the character..





Ridley Scott, director of &quot;Alien&quot; and &quot;Blade Runner,&quot; returns to the genre he helped define. With PROMETHEUS, he creates a groundbreaking mythology, in which a team of explorers discover a clue to the origins of mankind on Earth, leading them on a thrilling journey to the darkest corners of the universe.

It&apos;s been suggested recently that Universal Pictures is moving forward with a sequel/spin-off to their upcoming fantasy epic Snow White &amp; The Huntsman, possibly starring The Huntsman (played by Chris Hemsworth). The studio even began talks with David Koepp to write a follow-up, though it&apos;s not confirmed if it&apos;ll be a direct sequel or a spin-off. While chatting with Collider, Hemsworth discusses the possibility of his character returning for a spin-off and whether or not he would want to do such a film.  

“Yeah, sure, if there’s an audience for it and people wanna see it and there’s a great script and room to do something different with it, absolutely. I’ve heard probably the same rumors you have about possible sequels to this or prequels as far as the Huntsman’s storyline [goes].

The Rock To Portray LOBO?</title><link>http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/GraphicCity/news/?a=60119</link><description>

We&apos;ll keep these as rumors for now but bleedingcool.com has received some rather interesting tips regarding Thor 2 and DC&apos;s Lobo---

Bleeding Cool was told recently that The Rock is going to play Lobo in Brad Peyton´s upcoming film of the DC comics. An untested, unknown source opened up correspondance with us, and told us a tale of “a Hollywood party” at which Mr. Rock was a guest, and told some fellow partiers that he was going to take the Lobo role.

But, as I said, the source was untested, so I went looking for corroboration in better known quarters. The story sounded a little unlikely, though so many of the true ones do. Either way, I wanted to check it out before passing it on.

Speaking to some people who may have, perhaps, had some good info on the Lobo situation, I connected to a friend of the site who was able to</description><pubDate>Mon, 21 May 2012 08:16 MST</pubDate></item><item><title>Andrew Garfield  Was &quot;Blown Away&quot; By THE AVENGERS; Says He&apos;s Up For Joining The Team In A Sequel</title><link>http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/rorschachsrants/news/?a=60118</link><description>Spider-Man in The Avengers?

In their interview with director Robert Rodriguez at Cannes Film Festival, Empire confirms that Clive Owen (who played Dwight McCarthy in the 2005 adaptation of Frank Miller&apos;s Sin City) will reprise the role in the upcoming follow-up, A Dame To Kill For. He joins previously confirmed cast members Mickey Rourke and Jessica Alba, who reprise their roles as Marv and Nancy Callahan, respectively. Concerning more casting, Rodriguez says that he would soon be meeting with some “seriously big names” for the film, which will shoot back-to-back this summer with Machete Kills.

Additionally, Rodriguez promises that Sin City: A Dame To Kill For will be even more super-stylised than the original movie, and the look will be closer to that of the graphic novels. “I really held back the first time, because I didn’t know whether audiences would go for it.
