HeroBlend

Welcome to HeroBlend #27! The DCEU is, reportedly, switching things up and possibly looking to move on from Ben Affleck's Batman and Henry Cavill's Superman. So, it's time for Adrienne and special guest co-host, ReelBlend's Sean O'Connell, to talk all about what that move could mean for the cinematic universe going forward!

This was a big week for superhero movies, and hosts Eric Eisenberg and Adrienne Jones are here to help break it all down. This includes new details on the in development Kraven The Hunter movie, Dark Phoenix footage, a new Glass trailer, James Gunn making his way over to DC and so much more. You can't miss this episode!

This week, Eric and Adrienne are joined by CinemaBlend's Managing Director Sean O'Connell to discuss his reaction, and review of Sony's Venom (starring Tom Hardy, Michelle Williams, Riz Ahmed, and Jenny Slate).

After what feels like years, we finally got the first trailer for the latest X-Men movie, Dark Phoenix. Eric and Adrienne analyze some key moments, go over what they liked and didn't like, and get into why X-Men: The Last Stand still seems to be hanging around the story. Next, we got an exclusive look at new Aquaman footage, and Eric insists it's way cooler than what was revealed in the first trailer. Last, but certainly not least, we get into all the exciting Birds of Prey news that dropped. Sit back and relax, folks, because this is one chat you're not going to want to miss!

Marvel had a busy week and Eric and Adrienne couldn't be happier about it. First, the Captain Marvel trailer FINALLY dropped and we have the details on all the cool things it reveals about the upcoming MCU flick. Then we fantasize about Disney's big streaming service news, and share our list of Marvel characters who need their own show. Last, but certainly not least, we dive into all those Avengers 4 teases that have been driving fans nuts. What do they all mean?!? Listen for yourself and find out.

Some potentially major news dropped this week when we found out that Henry Cavill, the DCEU's current Superman, might be leaving his post. Well, the details are still somewhat nebulous, so Eric and Adrienne break everything down for you on this episode. If you think that's it, though, we've got plenty more to talk about this week, as Iron Fist Season 2 has finally hit Netflix and we can let you know if it's worth your time. And, for the first time since the HeroBlend podcast began, we will actually chat about a video game, when Eric extolls the virtues of Marvel's Spider-Man for PS4! Sit back and relax, folks, because this is one chat you're not going to want to miss!

This week on HeroBlend Eric and Adrienne breakdown everything we've learned, and anything we can infer from the new images of Brie Larson and the rest of the cast of Captain Marvel. This includes our first look at the film's big bad played by Ben Mendelsohn, and the stunning, de-aged image of Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury. We also discuss reports of Robin Wright returning for Wonder Woman 1984, new details on Gotham Season 5, and it of course wouldn't be a week in superhero news with some more wild Avengers 4 fan theories worth discussing. "5 Minutes Under the Gunn" is also back this week with more from Dave Bautista on not returning for Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol. 3, and a possible Drax stand-alone film (which he doesn't necessarily want to star in). You cannot miss this week's show!

This week Eric and Adrienne take a look back at Watchmen: The Ultimate Cut in our first-ever Retro Review. They discuss whether Zack Snyder's game-changing superhero movie still holds up today. We also introduce a new segment this week: Heroic Predictions. Eric and Adrienne discuss their wildest predictions for upcoming events in comic book movies and TV, and the other has to say whether or not it will become true and why. Also on the agenda: Joaquin Phoenix's Joker movie has some casting confusion, early reactions for Aquaman are in, and Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 production has officially been delayed. This is one chat you're not going to want to miss!

This week, prepare yourselves for a great discussion about some of the coolest Marvel and DC characters. Moviebill Senior Editor Silas Lesnick joins Eric and Adrienne to discuss who really deserves to be seen on the big screen in live-action. Some character picks are pretty well-known, while others are oddball choices that could make for some captivating cinematic stories few would expect. But first, we get into some pressing news topics, including an intriguing theory about Spider-Man: Far From Home's newly-revealed logo. Sit back and relax, folks, because this is one chat you're not going to want to miss!

While this week hasn't brought us any major blockbuster superhero news, we do have an intriguing show for you. Eric and Adrienne dig into a cool theory about Nick Fury and Iron Man, and they discuss Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 updates in our second week of "Five Minutes Under The Gunn" (our new segment where we try to limit ourselves to just five minutes of James Gunn talk). Then we get into our brilliant ideas for established MCU and DCEU heroes who deserve to have their own solo films. There are aliens, intrepid reporters, anthropomorphic critters, mostly overlooked sidekicks, little sisters and even one character we've heard about but haven't actually seen yet, along with many more amazing possibilities. Sit back and relax, folks, because this is one chat you're not going to want to miss!
