Sdcc: Marvel Studios chief on future films and possible crossovers
26 July 2010 5:27 AM, PDT | The Geek Files | See recent The Geek Files news »
As Marvel Studios created deafening screams of fanboy excitement with its Comic-Con panel for Thor, Captain America and The Avengers, you might well wonder what they have planned further down the line.
There have been various hints at the next wave of Marvel comic book adaptations after The Avengers hits the big screen in May 2012.
Marvel Studios president of production Kevin Feige provided the latest update in an interview at the convention.
According to IGN, Feige revealed: "What happens after [The Avengers] is what's being discussed now. Obviously, you've heard about Doctor Strange. I've been a vocal fan of Strange for a long time. Black Panther, I think, I mentioned recently. Fraction and Brubaker's reinvention of Iron Fist has gotten me excited to do some version of that in our world."
He acknowledged there was a grain of truth in online rumours that some characters might be adapted into short films (rather than full-scale, »

Patrick Dempsey wants to Play Dr. Strange
24 June 2010 12:01 AM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
Earlier this week it was announced that Marvel Entertainment hired a couple of screenwriters to take a crack at the live-action Dr. Strange film which I'm really excited about! I'm really looking forward to seeing Dr. Strange brought to life, but not in the form of Patrcik Dempsey.
After it was announced that Marvel was moving forward with Dr. Strange, Bleeding Cool reported that the Grey's Anatomy star expressed interest in playing the title character.
Patrick Dempsey, really wants to play a different kind of Doctor. Doctor Strange. And comics artist-working-in-Hollywood Arne Starr seems to agree, whipping up this piece of art that got Dempsey seen by Marvel Studios.
I can't help but think this is a joke, but if it's for real, and he ended up getting the part... that would suck. I'm just not a big fan of Dempsey and I don't think he has what it takes to play Dr. »

Green Hornet Busts His Larvae
23 June 2010 4:52 AM, PDT | Comicmix.com | See recent Comicmix news »
Trailers and photos are beginning to leak out from the most disparaged unreleased movie of the year.
We’re finally seeing something from Seth Rogen’s Green Hornet movie, set for release next January. Already, that’s a bad sign – usually, big deal action flicks are released in summer or around Christmas, and Green Hornet was moved back from this summer into an all-but-invisible slot.
The stuff that’s been released is, of course, the really cool stuff. There’s nothing that says this is all the cool stuff the movie has to offer, but we always have that sneaking suspicion. Seth doesn’t look too bad– sort of plumpish Michael Keaton as Bruce Wayne. And Jay Chou looks like he can handle the martial arts. It other words, there was nothing to chase me away, like in the Spirit and Jonah Hex trailers. And there’s at least one thing that’s really cool-looking. »

Marvel Hires Dr. Strange Movie Writers, Patrick Dempsey in the Running?
22 June 2010 8:56 PM, PDT | TheHDRoom | See recent TheHDRoom news »
Marvel's post The Avengers movie slate still remains in flux but there's movement behind-the-scenes that suggest some new characters are in line for their own feature.
Deadline is reporting that Marvel has inked screenwriters Thomas Donnelly and Joshua Oppenheimer to write a script for Dr. Strange for what could become the first Marvel movie released under Disney. The duo has already penned scripts for Jon Favreau's Cowboys & Aliens (currently shooting), Conan the Barbarian (wrapping up shooting) and Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, the latter based on Sony's Playstation 3 video game which now sits idle at Sony Pictures.
The character of Dr. Strange, a New York surgeon robbed of his touch in an accident but develops and uses psychic powers to battle evil, has been ripe for a feature-film treatment for many years. Bob Gale, Wes Craven, David Goyer, Stephen Norrington and Guillermo del Toro have all had a crack at the »

Is Patrick Dempsey Gunning For The Dr. Strange Role?
22 June 2010 3:08 PM, PDT | cinemablend.com | See recent Cinema Blend news »
So now that Marvel's Dr. Strange will be getting a full-length feature instead of a simple 10-minute short, everyone is ready to speculate as to who should play him. Names like Johnny Depp, George Clooney, Liam Neeson have already appeared on fans' wish lists, but it's hard to believe that any of them would actually take the role. So what about an up-and-coming actor like Patrick Dempsey? Bleeding Cool seems to suggest that the actor is more than interested. So what do we think of Dempsey as the sorcerer supreme? He has already spent the last five years playing a doctor on Grey's Anatomy, he's age appropriate for the role, and, with a role in the upcoming Transformers 3, it looks like he may be trying to change genres from rom-coms to action films. One fan of the casting is comic book artist Arne Starr who has already drawn up »
