The Bob Odenkirk-led Nobody 2 will release next week and is expected to open to a modest $10 million domestically.Ryan Reynolds posted an image of the Avengers logo with a red anarchy symbol spray painted over it to his Instagram this morning, which fans are taking as a tease that he will appear in next year's Avengers: Doomsday. The rumors are that the next list of cast members in the film is also “ridiculously long” so it seems like Reynolds is getting the jump on the announcement.Peacock released our first extended look at The Paper, a new mockumentary series spun off from The Office, and made by Greg Daniels and Michael Koman. The trailer gives us a glimpse into several of the characters personalities and we see an old favorite, Oscar Martinez, who is NOT into being filmed again.

In this previously unreleased episode we muse over James Gunn's 'Superman'.This Superman exists in a world that immediately feels more "comic booky" than previous iterations – complete with Superman robots, a super-powered dog, and pocket dimensions that defy explanation. It's a deliberate step away from the gritty realism of previous DC films, embracing the fantastic elements that make comic books unique.

"THAT'S WHAT MAKES ME STRONG." After James Gunn took control of DC and after The Flash basically killed it it for everyone, a few stragglers trailed behind that were in between cinematic universes. One of these was a silver screen adaptation of Blue Beetle, and many didn't know what to think of it when going in. While the film has had its fiar share of detractors, it has proven to be one of the very few bright spots of the previous era, with pushes being made to include it in the DCU going forward. So, how does it hold up? Come join Brian, Alec, and Trey (@HeyGuysItSpidey) to find out as they take a look at the elusive actually good DC film, Angel Manuel Soto's BLUE BEETLE!
