Woodard’s Civil War Role Different Than Luke Cage One
The guest list for next week's U.S. premiere of Captain America: Civil War briefly raised hopes that Marvel could be uniting its film and Netflix universes through the inclusion of an actor no one knew was in the movie, Oscar nominee Alfre Woodard.
Alfre Woodard in State of Affairs
We've known for a while that Woodard (True Blood, the animated Black Panther series) had been cast in Luke Cage as "Minetta," a powerful local politician who may be a version of the villain Black Mariah.
Rogue One Teaser Trailer Debuting on GMA Tomorrow
A trailer for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is coming sooner than you might have expected.
Disney has announced that the first teaser trailer for the upcoming Star Wars film will premiere on Good Morning America on Thursday (April 7).
This will be the first official teaser trailer released for the movie. Set before the events of A New Hope, Rogue One stars Felicity Jones, Mads Mikkelsen, Alan Tudyk, Donnie Yen, Ben Mendelsohn, Forest Whitaker and Diego Luna.
Rogue One hits theaters on December 16, 2016. A lead-in comic will be released by Marvel prior to the movie's debut.
New Black Hole Discovery Changes Everything
A supermassive black hole with a mass of 17 billion suns was found in an isolated galaxy 200 million light years away.
Supermassive black holes have previously been found at the heart of large galaxies, but this is the first time one has been found in a relatively empty area, in a galaxy known as NGC 1600.
The black hole accounts for 2.1 percent of the entire mass of NGC 1600, where usually black holes only account for around 0.2 percent of their host galaxy's mass.
There was believed to be a correlation between the mass of a black hole and the mass of the galaxy's bulge of stars, but this new discovery may have proven that incorrect.
Professor Poshak Ghandi of the University of Southampton said, “What this is saying is that you don’t need these galaxy clusters to grow very massive black holes."
Wonder Woman Release Date Moved
The Warner Bros. Wonder Woman solo film will now be released three weeks earlier than expected, with the new date being June 2, 2017.
According to Variety, the studio also has given dates to two currently untitled DC movies, one of which opens on October 5, 2018 and the other on November 1, 2019. Additionally, an unnamed Warner Bros. "event film" has been dated for October 6, 2017.
Warner Bros. also adjusted the release date of Jungle Book: Origins, pushing it back an entire year—from October 6, 2017 to October 19, 2018—and providing Andy Serkis' upcoming film over two years of breathing room from Disney's Jungle Book movie, which opens later this month.
