Charlie Cox wants Scarlett Johansson to appear in Daredevil

August 8, 2017 by Robert Kojder

Outside of subtle references and Easter Eggs, there isn’t a connection between the film and television divisions of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Naturally, this decision has its pros and cons; it allows for the differing tones to stay consistent and each area to fully focus on its characters, but the bigger picture is missing out […]

Scarlett Johansson: Lost In Blockbusters!

June 13, 2017 by Amie Cranswick

Tom Jolliffe on Scarlett Johansson… I’m a fan of Scarlett Johansson. As an actress I think she’s interesting. She’s almost always engaging. She has a sultry old fashioned quality. Frankly she’s gorgeous, which whilst that shouldn’t be as important as it is in Hollywood (and it still is) that means she is a leading lady. […]

Critical Thinking: Just Review The Damn Movie

March 30, 2017 by Anghus Houvouras

Because of the deep, dark, burning hot embers this topic stirs within me, I’m going to give a you a TL;DR version. Dear Movie Critics: just review the damn movie. Not the controversy surrounding the movie, not the on set issues or reshoots, not the marriage that collapsed due to the raw sexual friction between […]

January 4, 2017 by Justin Cook

Even after 14 films, there are still several superheroes in the Marvel Cinematic Universe that haven’t been nearly as fleshed out as Iron Man, Captain America and several others, despite being around for about as long. Two of these characters include Jeremy Renner’s Clint Barton/Hawkeye and Scarlett Johansson’s Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow. While there have been […]

Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.’s Ming-Na Wen is very unhappy with “whitewashing” Ghost in the Shell casting

April 15, 2016 by Luke Owen

It caused quite a stir when it was announced that Scarlett Johansson (Captain America: Civil War) had been cast in the lead role of the live-action adaptation of Ghost in the Shell [the first picture from the film was released yesterday], which once again brought out the ugly side of Hollywood’s ‘whitewashing’ of Asian roles, similar […]

Chris Evans and Jeremy Renner apologise for calling Black Widow a “slut” and “whore”

April 23, 2015 by Luke Owen

During the press tour for Avengers: Age of Ultron (read our spoiler free review here), Chris Evans and Jeremy Renner were asked by IGN about Scarlett Johansson’s Black Widow and relationship status with Hulk in the movie. The question was asked due to the first movie hinting a relationship with Hawkeye and flirtatious teasing between […]
