Sebastian Stan's Two-Face & X-Men in Doomsday: Why We're CONCERNED

1 hour 55 minutes

There are some BIG Questions worth talking about. We have ‪@FilmSpeak‬ in the studio today where we break down everything happening with The Batman Part II, including the latest casting rumors and what they could mean for Matt Reeves’ grounded Gotham universe. From speculation surrounding Scarlett Johansson potentially playing either Phantasm or Gilda Dent, to the major rumor that Sebastian Stan could be stepping into the role of Harvey Dent / Two-Face alongside Robert Pattinson, we discuss the pros, the risks, and whether this version of Gotham is ready for it.

We also dive into Avengers: Doomsday, reacting to what fans are calling Avengers: Doomsday Trailer 3 — featuring the return of legacy X-Men (2000) characters like Cyclops (James Marsden), Professor X (Patrick Stewart), Magneto (Ian McKellen), and the looming presence of Sentinels. We also go through the full Avengers: Doomsday cast reveal, including the confirmation of Doctor Doom being played by Robert Downey Jr..

Plus, we touch on surprising Star Wars Starfighter news, with reports of Tom Cruise visiting the set of the upcoming Shawn Levy–directed Star Wars film starring Ryan Gosling — and what that could mean.

There’s a lot to be excited about… but are there some creative risks hiding beneath the surface? Let’s talk about it.
