Breaking the War: Black Panther Will Play On Neutral Grounds in Civil War

You may have followed up on filming locations for the Captain America Civil War, however last Comic Con in San Diego, there were more big reveals that made fans more excited than ever before.

Last June 10, Marvel fans were given a spoiler as to who will possibly break the war between two superhero teams. If you are wondering what teams these are, well that would be the Cap’s (Captain America) and Iron Man’s. Playing “neutral” on this super hero battle is The Black Panther.

SPOILER ALERT!!!

We all know that eventually the Black Panther will eventually join the Avengers right? Well, what better way to introduce him and make this possible than play the peace maker.

The war between the two Avenger teams was depicted on Avenger: Age of Ultron’s final scenes. Of course, before the movie was even shown in theaters, many fans already knew what will be in store. Captain America’s third installment is a follow up of the latest Avengers movie; and the plot has been revealed way before the second Avengers movie was shown in theaters. What wasn’t revealed though was Black Panther.

Spider Man Will Be Part of the Movie… and so will Aunt May

Spider Man has always been expected to be part of the Civil War movie. Many thought he’d be the neutral one since some news revealed he will be choosing sides. However, it seems that Spidey is going to be just a cameo role. What we can look forward to is Marisa Tomei’s debuting as Aunt May before the Spider Man movie. Of course, since Black Panther is part of this movie, he will be having his own movie too.

According to reports, Black Panther movie is all set and planned. His appearance in the Civil War is just an intro as he enters the Marvel Universe.

As most Marvel fans know, Black Panther is a hero from Wakanda in Africa. That is where vibranium deposits are found in the Marvel Universe. He is actually a king in his home and – for those who don’t know – was once married to X-Men’s Storm (although that’s another story to tell).

Black Panther is an interesting addition to the Captain America movie. He will be jumping from one team to another just to put a stop to their fights. Of course, since they are all heroes, Black Panther’s role would be more pivotal as he reminds them of the true enemy – Crossbones.

This is just one of the things you must check out from the upcoming Captain America: Civil War. Most of the filming location was in Atlanta. The third installment of the Captain America franchise will be showing this January 2016.

Reasons Why Attack of Titan is SOOOO Popular

Attack On Titan is one of the most anticipated manga turned live action film worldwide. Like Rorouni Kenshin, this movie has gotten a lot of attention from its games, manga, anime, a board game, commercial, and now with the fact that it will have two movies back to back followed by another live action series.

Seriously, we’re wondering where in Japan they filmed their scenes – and where there television series filming location will be.

For those who are wondering what made many go ga-ga over this show, here are five reasons that made it popular.

1. Attack on Titan has all the ingredients that speak of obstacles, will power, and determination.

The Attack on Titan tells the story of young Eren who swore to avenge his mother. Of course, he had faced obstacles, thought he can’t fight, but in the end he became the hero. There is passion, courage and drama with all the gruesomeness the show offers.

2. The appeal of the characters.

It has lovable characters like loyal friends Mikasa Ackerman. She would do anything for Eren. She would even kill for him. Eren is another lovable character of course and there’s a whole lot more to take note of like Armin and Levi.

3. It has a story and cool girls.

There are series which basically run on fan service. The best part is how the ladies here are sticking to the story and strong. There is no teenage-love or any girly stuff. It’s simply pure epic drama, action, fun, and a great storyline.

4. Yes, of course, the story is predictable.

It’s easy to follow. The story tells not shows. There may be things you will know later on but it definitely gives you an idea of what the story is and what is the main focus. You can easily distinguish the good guy from the bad.

5. It speaks of anything.

It’s basically about defeating monsters, rising up from your ruins, fighting back, going beyond what you are expected to do and so on. In other words, we can relate it easily to people

While filming locations are set in Japan, the live action is set to be on Singapore and the Americas big screen this August. After that the live action television series will follow. Lightsonlocation.com can provide you with details on filming locations including places which you can find similar to Attack On Titan.

Charlie Hunnam’s Reason Why He Backed-Out As Christian on Fifty Shades

Remember back in 2013? EL James, author of the erotic novel Fifty Shades of Grey, tweeted about Charlie Hunnam playing the rich and mysterious Christian Grey. Unfortunately, he turned it down.

While we are still to wait when will the filming of FiftyShades Darker commence, or if they will still film it on the same filminglocations, July reports gave us all Hunnam’s answer why he did backed out from the said movie.

A lot speculated, especially after a Hollywood insider’s report, that the actor was “overwhelmed” and got “cold feet” doing the role. But as it turned out, his statement was one of the most misunderstood statements to record.

Hunnam has been silent about the issue on why he backed out regardless of the speculations about it. He recently clarified why he did the move.

In a post by Inquisitr.com, we can see Hunnam’s response on the issue which he gave on his interview with Moviefone. Based on the actor’s response, he cited how he felt sorry he had to turn it down but his schedules were tight.

“I was going to finish Sons at like 11 p.m. Friday night, get on the plane Saturday morning to Vancouver for ‘Fifty,’ missing the whole first week of rehearsal and start shooting Monday morning. And I was going to shoot that film, wrap that on the Wednesday and the following Monday I was going to start shooting ‘Crimson Peak’ in Toronto. I just had like… frankly, something of a nervous breakdown.”

While Hollywood Reporter’s claim seemed to be in line, their news about his move showed Hunnam was overwhelmed by the attention he will be getting from fans as well as the projects that lined out. This time however, with his clarification, the rumors on why he did backed out might cease.

“I really didn’t want to fail on such a grand scale and I just couldn’t transition from Jax Teller to Christian Grey in 48 hours. I bit off more than I could chew and it was painful. I loved the character and I wanted to do it. It was just a sh*t situation. I was really, really, sorry to do it. It was one of those damned if you do, damned if you don’t situations.”

We can all expect big surprises from the Fifty Shades Darker movie which is showing this Valentines 2017. Filming is yet to be announced but filming location might still be in Vancouver.

Upcoming Superhero Movies That Are Expected to Gross Billion Dollars

When it comes to superhero movies, we are all up for it. Proof of this is not just the many fans that went to Comic Con but also the billion dollars movies on this genre earned even on its first day. Some would even go lengths just to check out where the filming locations of these movies are.

So, without further ado, we’ll go straight to the chase of bringing you a few of the movies that are sure to make billions again upon its release.

Amazing SpiderMan

Spiderman is now with Marvel and things got more interesting. While we’ve seen two great Spideys in the recent years, this new solo seems to have more juice to it as Marvel are rumored to be inputting other Marvel heroes in the scene.

Spiderman is expected to have a cameo role in the upcoming movie Captain America: Civil War. After that fans are sure to be waiting for his own solo movie which will star Tom Holland as the new Spidey.

X-Men: Apocalypse

For those who love the comics, yes the next X-Men is back on track especially with its million earnings. While Days of Future Past did grossed high with $748 million, we may see more than that with the new Apocalypse movie. Of course this new one won’t be featuring the past of the X-men characters unlike with Days of Future Past. What we can expect, however is Oscar Isaac who will play Apocalypse. Surely this will get fans excited once they see him in Star Wars: Force Awakens which is showing this December.

The Apocalypse movie may even crossover with Fantastic Four which is showing this 2018.

Justice League: Part 1

Let’s all admit, we see this one coming! After Batman v. Superman was announced, and with Wonder Woman coming in the same movie, many DC fans are excited about having Justice League.

Another reason why we see it coming is because of Marvel’s Avengers which proved that shared universes do great catching movie goers’ attention.

Avengers: Infinity War Part 1

An Avengers movie will always hit blockbuster. Let’s admit, fans really love the Avengers since it showed last 2012. Age of Ultron, the second installment for the Avengers movie, hit $1.4 billion worldwide.

Expected to add be part of the Infinity war are Spider-Man, the Black Panther, Captain Marvel, and Doctor Strange.

Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice

Said to be the start of Justice League, the Dawn of Justice is sure to hit the billion mark when it hits cinemas this 2016. It is one of the most awaited films of all time especially with two of our favorite superheroes fighting each other.

While this may be a bit confusing, let’s admit that this fight is sure to really make us wonder who will win. One of the most awaited characters is also in this movie – Wonder Woman.

Captain America: Civil War

This would be one of the most highly awaited hero flick – after the Avengers Age of Ultron of course. Captain America’s third installment features the Cap fighting Iron Man.

Winter Soldier, Captain America’s third installment, boosted its gross last year and so did iron Man 3. Of course, Avengers 2 also earned a great 1.5 billion worldwide too.

What’s going to make Captain America’s third installment a sure fire hit is the many Marvel characters involved and how our beloved Captain is going to fight it off with another loved hero – Iron Man. Other than cool filming locations that are sure to be featured in this film, we are also expecting a lot of cameo that will introduce us to upcoming Marvel movies.

That’s at least some of the movies expected to hit the billion dollar mark when its shows in cinemas. Surely the billion dollar mark will hit immediately on its first week. For more details about these movies’ filming location, just visit lightsonlocation.com.

Supergirl Series is Ready to Take Off this October 2015

Are you waiting for Arrow or the Flash to start filming in their filming locations in Canada? Well while you are excited, we have great news as the DC world just got larger with another superhero in town.

We have the Arrow and Flash up on CBS, but the DC world just got more exciting with the arrival of Supergirl.

Kal-El’s cousin will be flying this October 2015. Fortunately we get to see her fly on trailer footages which are also posted in YouTube.

The Supergirl TV has a full season order from CBS. It will be featuring 24 year old Kara Danvers who is actually Kara Zor-El.

In the trailer, we see Kara sent to Earth also to watch over Kal-El – better known as Superman. Unfortunately her pod was sucked in a worm hole where she remained suspended in time until she landed on earth. She was adopted and kept her powers hidden.

Of course there is someone who knew about it. In the trailer we see her sister, Alex Danvers, who was worried over her powers getting revealed. Alex is Kara’s adopted sister and is a scientist.

Justice League villain, Maxwell Lord, is also coming to the show and will be played by Peter Facinelli (remember Carlisle Cullen of Twilight?). Maxwell is a tech billionaire who is in rivalry with Cat Grant, Kara’s boss.

Yes, Kara will be an assistant to Cat. Seeing their scenes together somehow can be likened to the Devil Wears Prada. We see Kara struggling and hoping to be more. That’s why she decided to be Supergirl after rescuing the flight where her sister was on.

Since Maxwell is here, we should also expect Superman to show up right? Well, that will happen as SDC confirms we can expect a lot of DC characters to appear in Supergirl. Besides, the trailer shows us a silhouette of the hero extending his hand to Kara.

There is also rumor that the show exists in the same world as the Arrow, Flash and the upcoming Legends of Tomorrow.

Supergirl will be out this October 26 on CBS. It will be every Monday at 8:30 PST right after the Big Bang Theory.

We really don’t know whether part of their filming location plans to feature a Metropolis style world but this is for sure: This show is going to be a hit. To check out more information about the show’s location just check out lightsonlocation.com.

Superhero Flicks We Should Look Out for After SDCC 2015

Comic Con has been one epic event that gives comic fans the excitement of knowing first-hand updates from their favorite flicks, comic book labels, games, and more.

This year, most superhero flick fans are going to need to ready their pockets. After San Diego Comic Con 2015, fans are more excited than ever with the parade of movies starting this August till next year.

Without further ado, here are some of the flicks you need to watch out for.

1. Fantastic Four

Fantastic Four gives us a new look at how the four heroes got their powers plus they are younger.

Years back, we also saw another Fantastic Four version which stars Chris Evans who became the Human Torch before becoming the Captain America we all love today. Now, the four heroes are back and this time younger.

The way they also gained their powers were different – after travelling to another dimension. Harnessing their new abilities, the four new heroes work together to defeat Doom.

Fantastic Four will be showing in theaters this August.

2. Star Wars: The Force Awakens

With filming locations set in a real desert, you can expect that this is a big movie. Well, not because of the location but the effort the team had to go through just to bring the audience a realistic scenery to make it more tangible in cinemas.

Why all the effort?

Well, compared to previous Star Wars movie, this one is a sequel! Yes! We will finally get to see Luke Skywalker, Princess Leia and Han Solo! The best part – they’ll be played by the character’s original actors.

Now that’s exciting!

Star Wars: The Force Awakens will be released this Christmas! #MerryChristmas

3. Deadpool

We all saw the leaked trailer of Deadpool right? And if you haven’t, you can just wait for the better take (or go right ahead and search for the leaked one in the internet). Honestly, the trailer is so FUN-ny! We got to see Ryan Reynolds as this cool, very talkative, funny, Deadpool unlike when he was “Deadpool” in Wolverine which was very serious (then again having my mouth stitched together is frustrating).

Deadpool is originally a hero. We’ll be seeing him on cinemas this February 2016.

4. Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice

One of the most awaited movies since it was announced. Batman v Superman makes us curious as to why these two would fight – or if Batman can take Superman. Then again, it’s an interesting story to check out especially if you have Wonder Woman in the film too.

Batman v Superman will be in cinemas this March 2016.

5. Captain America: Civil War

I don’t know whether we can call this the Marvel version of Batman v Superman but it’s undeniable, it will be Captain America v Iron Man.

The Avengers will be divided to two teams with one taking the government’s plan to have an accountability system with heroes while the other not so into it. And just like Dawn of Justice, this movie also has a nemesis the two teams have to face together.

Civil War will premier in cinemas this May 2016.

We also have other upcoming movies. X-Men Apocalypse and we still have to figure out where its filming location is. Right now, you can all check out its previous filming location at lightsonlocation.com. X-Men Apocalypse has no release date yet but we can expect it to be as thrilling as Days of Future Past.

Months before fans finally get to see J.J. Abram's much awaited 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens', Disney and Lucasfilms is already planning ahead for their following movies in the franchise. The studio is planning to build on their franchise by releasing a film every year, with the main film in the trilogy getting released every two years and a standalone 'anthology' film in between.

Rian Johnson's untitled Star Wars Episode VIII isn't due for a couple of years yet (set for a 2017 release date), but the Mouse House has already began its search for the main villain of the film. On their sights is the Oscar winning actor BenicioDel Toro, who is said to have been offered the villain in Episode VIII according to The Wrap.

Not much is known to the plot of their latest installment, so we still have no idea what kind of villain Del Toro is going to be. Rian Johnson, director of Looper, is tasked to write and direct Episode VIII. The movie will also feature the return of John Boyega as Finn, Daisy Ridley as Rey and Oscar Isaac, who was cast as En Sabah Nur (Apocalypse) in X-Men Apocalypse and is currently on the filming location of said film, playing the role of X-wing pilot Poe Dameron in this one.

Benicio Del Toro, who won best supporting actor for his role as an honest Mexican narcotics cop in 'Traffic', is no stranger to Disney's movie franchise. He recently starred as The Collector in Marvel's space opera adventure 'Guardians of the Galaxy', which is under Disney.

Johnson is also a writer of the final episode of the Star Wars trilogy, so he will possibly have a bigger hand in the future of the Star Wars saga more so than Abrams. Filming location isn't announced yet, but they are due to start shooting Episode VIII early next year.

As for Del Toro's role, despite still not having made his decision if he would accept the role, it would be a great addition to the Star Wars franchise to have a talented actor who is known to play a wide range of roles including those who have fallen on the 'dark' side. He has shown time and time again that he could be a menacing threat that could possibly be a major thorn in the heroes' side, as to be expected in a Star Wars villain.

According to 007 director Sam Mendes, he won't be making any more Bond films after Spectre comes out this year. He was previously rumored to helm the untitled Bond 25, but he has now confirmed that the rumors aren't true. After a very successful premiere from his last film 'Skyfall', which earned critical acclaim and over a billion in the box office, the director apparently wants to return to his work in theatre after the movie premieres on October 26.

Mendes said in an interview with BBC Radio 5 that he didn't originally plan to return to the franchise after Skyfall was released, saying "I said no to the last one and ended up doing it, and was pilloried by all my friends." He also added that Spectre is "probably it" for him when it comes to the world of James Bond. It took 5 years to shoot the two movies, and even though he said it was one big experience and life changing shooting both films (Skyfall and Spectre) from various filming locations, he is ready to move on to other projects. "It really is more a lifestyle choice than a job. I don’t think I could go down that road again" the director says.

The famed director made his mark in theatre, and has directed a new production of Road Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory in between directing the Bond films. He expressed his interest to return to theatre where he is more at home. "I'm happiest rehearsing a play or editing a movie, and when I've finished editing a movie I generally want to be back in a theatre environment again," he said. Even so, he is still open to returning to do another film in the next few years.

Spectre is promised to be a bigger movie than Skyfall, with filming locations all over the world including London, Mexico, Italy and Morocco and a cast and crew of over 1,000 people.

Casts include Christoph Waltz, Lea Seydoux, Naomie Harris, Andrew Scott, Ben Whishaw, Dave Bautista, Monica Bellucci and Ralph Fiennes.

Featuring Daniel Craig as James Bond in his fourth appearance as 007, he is drawn to a plot that involves a cryptic message from Bond's past that sends him on a trail to uncover a sinister organization.

Director Sam Mendes also revealed that the Spectre theme song was already recorded, but would not yet reveal the singer behind it. "I can say that the song's been recorded and it's fantastic and I'm very excited about it. You won't have to wait long." the director teased.

Marvel's latest installment to their ever growing franchise has had a rough start during its development. It spent almost 10 years in development hell, and just before the filming actually begun, director Edgar Wright - who has been attached to the film for a long time - decided to leave the project due to creative differences. Peyton Reed was brought on board in the last minute which delayed the film further. Changes in the script had to be made, which didn't bode well for fans and critics. Quite surprisingly however, Ant-Man still turned out to be a big hit for Marvel studios.

That being said, it still had some revisions made in order to tie it up with the upcoming films from Marvel, particularly 'Captain America: Civil War'. Ant-Man has been out in theaters this week, but if you still haven't seen this movie yet be aware that there will be spoilers in the following paragraphs.

Now that we got that out of the way, we first take a look at the ending of Ant-Man. If you have seen the film, we know that Ant-Man ends with the Avengers member Falcon (Anthony Mackie) looking for Scott Lang (Paul Rudd) as told by Luis (Michael Pena). This is obviously a set up for the Civil War, just like the post-credits scene in the film.

As it turns out however, this wasn't the original plan for the ending. Director Peyton Reed recently revealed to Cinema Blend that Ant-Man was supposed to end differently. The original Ant-Man script was planned to end with a showdown against Mitchell Carson (Michael Donovan), whom we first saw during the 80s scene as a high ranking S.H.I.E.L.D member who turns out to be an undercover Hydra agent. The film shows Carson trying to purchase the Yellowjacket suit developed by Darren Cross, but ended up stealing the Cross particles (a version of Hank's “Pym Particles”) instead. According to Reed, this particular storyline was meant to be close-ended.

The director said that “At the end of the movie he gets away and has these Cross particles, and there was a sequence where Ant-Man has an encounter with him. But then for a couple reasons, it felt like maybe we should leave those particles out there. In that original thing, he took Martin Donovan out and got the particles.”

It's unclear however if this particular change of having the Cross Particle out there for other villains to utilize as seen in the ending would play out in Marvel's phase 3, which begins with Civil War. What we know so far is that Ant-Man will be appearing in said film. Photos from the filming location don't seem to show Paul Rudd during the shoot, but we expect to see him in the next months playing around with the rest of the Avengers off-cam in the filming location of The Russo Brothers’ film.
