Aside from the ensemble films like Avengers, Age of Ultron and Guardians of the Galaxy, not one of these films has had a female lead the group. We see Oscar-winner Melissa Leo, Star Trek’s Zachary Quinto and Nicolas Cage also starring as we get an inside look at a man behind some of the biggest data leaks in the history of our government.

In a night overflowing with special guests and previews, these are the six major takeaways from Marvel’s Comic-Con takeover. There was a bevy of new footage and announcements for Marvel fans to froth over. Let’s start with the premiere of the second trailer for Doctor Strange.
Feige brought onstage Ryan Coogler, who helmed Rocky spin-off “Creed” a year ago and has turned his attention to the fictional world of Wakanda for “Black Panther”, due in 2018.
She will be joined by Danai Gurira as Okoye and Coogler collaborator Michael B. Jordan as villain Erik Killmonger (with a name like that, did he ever have a chance to be a white hat?). The cast of fan favourite shows such as Game of Thrones and Walking Dead gave fans a chance to learn more about their favourite shows and their future plans.
The universe is now in Phase Three after the release of Captain America: Civil War in 2016.
The first trailer that was shown back in April only showed a brief background of Stephen Strange (Cumberbatch).
In it, Benedict Cumberbatch indeed maintains an American accent for some reason, but also dons Strange’s purple cloak for the first time.
Indeed, a lot of movie studios don’t bring their big guns to SDCC, often choosing to focus on their own in-house events instead, like Marvel skipping previous year, and Star Wars their Celebration just a week before.
The crowd applauded as Chris Hemsworth was shown with a nerdy roommate who helps him send peacemaking e-mails to Captain America and Iron Man during their Civil War dispute. Rooker sat on the stage in full costume and makeup.
Even bigger confirmations were saved for the two clips.
The post Benedict Cumberbatch can do anything, like bends time and space, in the first trailer for “Doctor Strange” appeared first on HelloGiggles.
It wasn’t all casting news for Marvel, though-SDCC audiences also got a teaser of Jessica Jones’s future. The footage won’t be released, but you can read descriptions of each over at io9. One of these names has been Academy Award victor Brie Larson (Room) and this weekend at San Diego Comic-Con it was confirmed that she would take on the character for the film, expected to be released in March 2019.
