Infinity War Directors Seem to Confirm Captain Marvel Appearance

The Captain Marvel standalone movie might be pushed back until March 8, 2019, but it sure sounds like audiences will be seeing Carol Danvers sooner rather than later.

During a conversation at the Smithsonian Institute, Avengers: Infinity War directors Joe and Anthony Russo seemed to have confirmed Captain Marvel's appearance in the movies, the first of which hits theaters on May 4, 2018. (The yet-to-be-renamed Infinity War - Part 2 comes out after Captain Marvel on May 3, 2019.)

They mentioned Captain Marvel in connection with the film, and when a fan quickly followed up asking for confirmation that she'll be in it, the Russos backtracked and said they meant Captain Barvel, a "totally different character" (via ComicBook.com).

Ben Affleck Joins Justice League as Executive Producer

Ben Affleck is taking a more hands-on role in the Justice League film -- specifically, as an executive producer.

Deadline reports that in his new capacity as an executive producer, Affleck will be working with both screenwriter Chris Terrio and director Zack Snyder behind-the-scenes on the project. That's on top of his starring role in the film as Batman.

Affleck has gained critical acclaim and accolades for his writing and directing work before in films like Gone Baby Gone and Argo, so it only makes sense to tap his advice. It would be somewhat of a reunion, too, since Terrio wrote the Best Picture winning Argo. Sources say Affleck is doing it in part to be supportive of Snyder.
