We sure do seem to talk about comic book movies a lot on Most Craved, so we might as well get a proper comic book villain to help us out. This week, hosts William Bibbiani (CraveOnline), Silas Lesnick (Coming Soon) and Jenna Busch (Legion of Leia) are joined by Liam McIntyre, who plays The Weather Wizard on the hit CW series The Flash! He’s got a few complaints to make about the accommodations at the supervillain prison located in the basement of STAR Labs, and a lot to say about the biggest entertainment news stories of the week…
Will Asa Butterfield Be the New Spider-Man?
Marvel Studios is rapidly searching for the next live-action Spider-Man, and if the rumors are true, they are leaning towards young Asa Butterfield, the 18-year-old star of Ender’s Game and Hugo. Good choice? Bad choice? Are there any other young actors that Marvel Studios should be considering, or should we just wrap this casting process up in a neat little bow right now while we’re on a roll?
Batman Fans React to Jared Leto as The Joker
Warner Bros. has released the first official image of Jared Leto as The Joker from the upcoming Suicide Squad movie, and the internet doesn’t seem to like it one bit. But isn’t this the same internet that thought Heath Ledger would make a terrible Joker? And aren’t there reports that this particular look for The Joker isn’t the final version that audiences will see in the movie?
Chris Evans Reveals Plans for ‘Avengers: Infinity War’
Captain America star Chris Evans just revealed that Marvel Studios plans to shoot both parts of Avengers: Infinity War back-to-back over the course of nine months. Wait… how is this news? Don’t most two-part movies shoot back-to-back? And even if this news does mean that Captain America survives the events of Captain America: Civil War, don’t most superhero movies end without killing the hero? Even in the comics, when Steve Rogers was assassinated after the events of Civil War, he still came back pretty danged soon. Is there any reason whatsoever why this news story should be trending online, or has the internet gone mad?
