The Avengers 2 Cast, News & Update: Will Batman vs Superman Top Joss Whedon's 2015 Blockbuster?
So we are skipping over the entire year of 2014 and fast forwarding to the most anticipated year of movie history...2015! Yes, 2013 brought us great films like "Iron Man 3" and "Man of Steel" along with a list of other box office hits like "Star Trek Into Darkness" and "Pacific Rim". Two-years after we have been promised to see Henry Cavill in that tight Superman suit again along with Ben Affleck trying to give us his best whisper in a Batman voice. Marvel fans are also awaiting the release of "Avengers 2" with the addition of more heroes and Tony Stark's sarcasm and inappropriate timing for cynical jokes.
People are raving about the upcoming film Batman vs. Superman or Man of Steel 2, as Zack Snyder has yet to name the film. Who will be the villain in this movie? And will Superman and Batman really face off to each other or combine forces? It's exciting times for DC Comics fans, who have never seen two DC characters together in one film. The cast of "Man of Steel" are all confirmed to be back including; Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Laurence Fishburne and Diane Lane. Most exciting and terrifying at the same time, is the nervously awaited performance by Ben Affleck as Batman. The Golden Globe Award winner and long time actor should have no problem kicking butt in his Batman gear...right? Fans and critics seem to either love the idea of Affleck playing the anticipated roll or be completely frightened that he will ruin the movie. Well one thing is for sure, Affleck has the Batman "look " and hopefully two years is enough to emerge into the character. The film is to be released in July of 2015, but the exact date is subject to change, either way clear your calendar.
"The Avengers 2", a Marvel's sequel to the amazing, terrific and exciting "Avengers" film released in 2012 (Can you tell I liked the film) will also be released in 2015. James Spader will be playing the evil robot Ultron, who is the confirmed villain of this film. The curiously liked Loki, played by Tom Hiddleston, will not be returning for Avengers 2, leaving us puzzled at the end of "Thor: The Dark World". Other characters that will be appearing in the much anticipated film will be Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Quicksilver and Elizabeth Olsen as Scarlet Witch. Joss Whedon, who will be writing and directing the film, has confirmed that Ultron's story will be changed for "The Avengers 2", clearing up any speculations of Ant-Man appearing in the film. Whedon has also said that the Black Widow, Scarlett Johansoon and Hawkeye, Jeremy Renner, will have a "huge part" in the sequel, how exciting is that? Get ready to be at the edge of your seat with what "Avengers 2" has prepared for you.
Also hitting theaters in 2015 is "Assassin's Creed", "Terminator" and of course "Ant-Man". But these are just a few of the movies coming your way that year, there's so many more exciting films that you will just not have time for anything else! (Watch video below for more).
What are you more excited for? "Batman vs. Superman" or "Avengers 2"? Will you be watching both of them? What else have you heard about 2015 Blockbuster releases?
