That's My Gal: 'Wonder Woman' Stopped Gal Gadot From Quitting Hollywood
Is it any "Wonder" that #GalGadot is one of Hollywood's hottest stars at the moment (and I don't just mean in a plunge-neck dress)? As the #DCEU rockets forward with its superstar superhero lineup, Gadot's part as #WonderWoman brings the amazonian heroine to cinemas for the first time since 1941. As our lead knuckles down to kick some supervillain ass, Wonder Woman looks set to fly away with the competition when director Patty Jenkins releases her film on June 2.

You've Got Us 'Dead' Excited: 'The Walking Dead' Gets Its Own Cartoon Series From AMC
For the past seven years and seven seasons, we have watched Andrew Lincoln superbly act as Rick Grimes on AMC's #TheWalkingDead, but now there is someone else playing the gruff sheriff. Don't worry, Lincoln hasn't quit the popular zombie apocalypse in favor of the bright lights of Hollywood, however, he does have some competition in the acting stakes.

I 'Mustache' You a Question: 'Orange Is the New Black' Star Pablo Schreiber Wants to Play Wolverine
Sure, there may be no race to find a new #Wolverine yet, but when Fox eventually gets around to replacing its clawed Canadian, expect the casting to be the hottest ticket in town. It is hard to imagine anyone taking over from #HughJackman's 17-year legacy, but just like James McAvoy having to go bald, we always knew this day was coming. While there has been little to no chatter on who could pop out a pair of adamantium claws, one actor is already throwing his mutton chops into the ring.

Is It a Bird, Is It a Plane? 'Man of Steel 2' Rumored to Finally Bring Supergirl to the DCEU
Looking back to 2013, #ZackSnyder's #ManofSteel is one of the best in a bad #DCEU bunch. There has always been talk of a second Superman solo film, but then Snyder went and did that tricky move of killing the lead character off. Just like in the comic books, no one is ever really dead, and #HenryCavill will be flying onto our screens once more in #JusticeLeague, but #ManofSteel2 is still shrouded in a cape of mystery. We may not have any concrete news or even a release date, but now interesting rumors of a possible character arrival have made their way online.

Not Quite So X-Cellent: 'Logan' Producer Reveals Why X-23 Isn't Joining The X-Men Movies
The #Logan gambit has certainly been in full swing to promote the film's home release and Logan Noir, once again reminding us just what made #JamesMangold's masterpiece so great. Among the highlights were the atmospheric spaghetti western vibes, an emotional farewell to #HughJackman's 17 years as #Wolverine, and #DafneKeen's performances as Laura Kinney, a.k.a. #X23.

The Land Before Time: Kelly From 'Jurassic Park' Reveals How She Landed The Role 20 Years Later
Failing to live up to the dino-sized task of outshining its predecessor, The Lost World: Jurassic Park was the 1997 sequel to #StevenSpielberg's original romp around the park. While The Lost World is nowhere near as spat upon as Jurassic Park III, the magic of the first #JurassicPark film just wasn't quite there. Spielberg was back, while newcomers like Julianne Moore and Vince Vaughn joined a returning #JeffGoldblum. Again the unlikely hero of the piece, this time Dr. Ian Malcolm made it a family affair and had his daughter along for the ride.

Flash Whaa Aaaah: 'The Flash' Movie May Have A Finished Script And A New Title
There is some blink-and-you'll-miss-it news regarding DC's #TheFlash. While #EzraMiller ties his running shoes to once again play Barry Allen, it looks like we are further ahead with production than first thought, which will undoubtedly be good news for those who are skeptical about the fastest man alive's solo film.

Four Heads Are Better Than None: Kevin Feige Confirms The Fantastic Four Aren't Aren't Joining The MCU
2017 is a pretty good year to be a superhero fan, and while the likes of Universal's Dark Universe fail to light up the box office, the various extended comic book universes are here to save the day, stronger than ever. With DC and Marvel seemingly content to share the crown, fans can bask in the glory of Superman, Captain America, and Wolverine. However, out of all the #comicbook characters that cinema has struggled to get right the most, the #FantasticFour seem Doctor Doomed to failure.

Going Abe-Sh*t: Michael Cudlitz Reveals Abraham's Parting Thoughts On 'The Walking Dead'
I "mustache" you a question, does anyone else sorely miss the bristling facial hair of Sergeant Abraham Ford on AMC's #TheWalkingDead? Our mustachioed maverick famously bowed out of the show in the blood-splattered Season 7 premiere, making him the first member of the group to fall foul of Negan's Lucille. There were no seals harmed in Season 7, however, #MichaelCudlitz's Abe and Steven Yeun's Glenn Rhee were both clubbed to death by Jeffrey Dean Morgan's no-nonsense dictator.

A Blast From The Cast: Why 'Logan' Director Cut A Major Character's Death Scene
Warning: Spoilers ahead for Logan As #JamesMangold's #Logan finally makes it onto home release, a whole treasure trove of Easter Eggs and commentaries can now be discovered in #HughJackman's swansong. As the near-perfect noir western, we trod the New Mexico desert with a smaller cast than the previous #XMen films and a more intimate conclusion to the #Wolverine trilogy. With barely a lycra suit or a glimmer of cheese in sight, Logan was the thinking man's #superhero film.

Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow: James McAvoy's Bald Xavier Is Back In 'X-Men: Dark Phoenix'
There may be no greater sight than the proud cranium of Sir Patrick Stewart bouncing light around the room, but there is no denying that #JamesMcAvoy has done a pretty stellar job following in his wheel tracks as Charles Xavier. Stewart has played the role of the #XMen mentor on and off for the past 17 years, while McAvoy took over in 2011's X-Men: First Class to play the role alongside Sir Pat.

Cruising for a Bruising: Universal Leak Blames Tom Cruise for Bombing 'The Mummy'
There is no denying, that Universal's #DarkUniverse is off to a bit off a rocky start, while #AlexKurtzman's #TheMummy smells almost as ripe as its bandaged villainess. At least you can't say that people aren't talking about Kurtzman's box office blunder, and barely a headline goes by without some reference to this resurrection of the franchise.
