'Spider-Man: Homecoming' Concept Art Shows How Peter Almost Got Killed — by the Parker Luck
There's a certain element of Spider-Man's character that was highlighted in Spider-Man: Homecoming more than any other Spidey film: his youth and his famously rotten luck. From Peter's face-planting while web-slinging to his failed attempt to kiss Liz after saving his classmates at the Washington Monument — and ultimately, his realization of her father's identity — it was classic "Parker Luck."

Martin Scorsese Is Developing a Standalone Joker Origin Story for Warner Bros—But It Won't Be Part of the DCEU
Suicide Squad saw the introduction of Batman's arch-nemesis to the DCEU. Jared Leto took the role of the Joker and his performance garnered a mixed response, to say the least. Ever since then, his future in the role has been uncertain. His future was thrown into even further doubt earlier today when Warner Bros. and DC announced that an origin story would be released explaining the beginnings of the Clown Prince of Crime...but it likely won't involve Leto.

'My So-Called Life': Why Jordan Catalano Was the Best Crush In TV History
If you are a child of the 90s, you have no doubt heard of My So-Called Life at some point, if not watched every episode. The teenage drama series starring Claire Danes unfortunately only lasted one season, but it quickly became a cult classic for a reason.

Where Are They Now: The Cast of RENT
Musical theater translated to the big screen has not always been appreciated by either fans of musicals nor fans of movies, though with the (subjective) success of recent films such as Into the Woods (2014) and The Last Five Years (2014), I thought we could go back to 2005 to see where the cast of RENT are now.

Let's take a look at what the cast has been up to in the past 10 years.

'Black Panther' Star Sterling Brown Confirms Marvel Kept the Film's Details a Total Secret By Any Means Necessary
The internet has brought us many wonderful things over the years, but it has also magnified the scourge of spoilers.

Marvel may very well be the most meticulous of all if the account of Sterling Brown, a supporting cast member in the highly-anticipated Black Panther, is anything to go by. A star on the very popular and huge fan-favorite show This Is Us, he will be making an appearance in Black Panther next year. While he's no stranger to keeping secrets about high-profile projects, what he has to say about working on Black Panther will leave you in awe of just how far Marvel will go to maintain absolute secrecy around a film of theirs.

How Deadpool Saved the Superhero Genre
I'm not exactly someone who can be considered a hardcore Deadpool fan. I've read some of the comics, played the video game, and just generally had an appreciation for the unique nature of the character as he existed within the Marvel world. Those who are perhaps a bit more hardcore than I when it comes to the fandom, however, are the real stars in this story, as it's because of them, and only them, that Deadpool ever made it to the big screen in the first place.
