Howlett At The Moon: Hugh Jackman Had No Idea That Wolverines Were Real During 'X-Men'
After playing the same character for 17 years, you'd think that any actor would know pretty much everything about the role; however, it sounds like even #HughJackman struggled in his early days as #Wolverine. With a decidedly scrawnier physique and sporting that bouffant hairdo, the original #XMen movie was just a glimpse at the berserker babe we would come to know and love.

Not So Quick(Silver): Fox Plans On Waiting A Long Time Before Recasting Wolverine
In a worrying wave of reboots, films are barely out of cinemas before those blockbuster bigwigs are clawing over its carcass to milk out another few dollars — I'm looking at you Resident Evil. However, where is your franchise without the biggest star?

Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow: David Harbour Promises to Bring Back Hellboy's Classic Look for 'Rise of the Blood Queen'
For those still hot under the collar about #NeilMarshall dragging #Hellboy out of the fiery depths of hell and rebooting from the #RonPerlman era, fear not, we are here to (once again) try and tell you that everything is going to be OK. We all know that Stranger Things star #DavidHarbour will be chomping on cigars and showing an affinity with cats in the graphic novel adaptation, and with every passing day, he looks more and more like the right man for the job — sorry, Perlfans.

Bat at It Again: 'Justice League' Reshoot Images Tease a Return to Gotham City
We are just months away from coming together (right now) for #DC's humongous spectacle and #ZackSnyder's #JusticeLeauge, but there is no rest for the wicked as it is still full steam ahead on set. Weaving the past six years of #DCEU films into one big superhero soup, hopes are high that Warner Bros. can continue to up their game and take on the mighty MCU.

The Joker's on You: John Lithgow Regrets Not Playing the Joker (Twice) in Batman
There are a few surefire ways to get yourself noticed in Hollywood: No.1, embarrassingly brawl with the paparazzi, and No. 2, get yourself cast in a #Batman movie. Apart from the shootings, bombings, and general rampages perpetrated by mad supervillains, why anyone would turn down the chance to take to the mean streets of Gotham is beyond me. However, it now turns that the legend that is #JohnLithgow missed out — twice!

Nip It in the Bud: Joel Schumacher Explains Those Bat Nipples from 'Batman & Robin'
Na na na na na na na na no thanks! That is probably what most people have to say about the state of #Batman in 1997, a.k.a. the year that #superhero films died. There is no denying that #JoelSchumacher's second entry in the Batman franchise displayed some questionable taste; so, between Uma's Madonna cones glued to her head, to our "frosty" reception toward Arnie's performance, Batman & Robin should've never really left the nest.

Bulking Not Sulking: Josh Brolin Shows Off His Insane New Cable Physique
We all know that the older you get, the harder it is to keep in shape. Those two-day hangovers and that middle-aged spread when you might add a tire (or two) to the midriff are hard to avoid — well, not if you are #JoshBrolin. In addition to playing the Mad Titan #Thanos over in the #MCU, he is practicing his best potty mouth to suit up as Nathan Summers, a.k.a. #Cable, in #Deadpool2.

Claws For Thought: 'Logan' Producer Reveals Why It Took So Long For R-Rated X-Men
A curse or a blessing, slapping an R-rating and some gnarly fight scenes on your #superhero film can arguably make or break it. Get it right, and you can bask in the glory of Tim Miller's Deadpool, but get it wrong and you are left with a mixed bag Watchmen with some people not quite getting it (I personally adore Watchmen).

Bat's Enough Out Of You: Alicia Silverstone Thinks She Should Play Batgirl Again
Some things you really should just let go of, and if you are a Hollywood actor reminding fans of your diabolical performance in an equally awful film, you should avoid it at all costs. Enter #AliciaSilverstone, the Clueless actress who slipped on some ill-fitting lycra to play Batgirl in #JoelSchumacher's lambasted Batman & Robin in 1997.

Jack's Your Lot: Hugh Jackman And James Mangold Discuss Their Different Views On The 'Logan' Ending
Sure to be clawing its way up the charts, we are achingly close to the release of #Logan on home-release, meaning that we can cage #HughJackman's final foray as #Wolverine for viewing over and over again.

Brolin On The River: Deadpool Creator Says That Cable Casting Scared Him
As Tim Miller's #Deadpool slapped the superhero competition in 2016, it was no surprise that the post-credits tease of a sequel was fast tracked into production. In typical Deadpool style, there was the none too subtle hint that antihero Cable would be "tied" into the sequel, and so the hunt for Nathan Summers began.

'Flame' On: Ian McKellen Speaks Out About Gay Heroes In Comic Book Movies
I'm sorry, but there is nothing about tucking your junk into skin-tight spandex and wrestling other men in the dark that isn't ever so slightly homoerotic — it just is. However, while Hollywood moves forward with a packed slate of female-first superheroes like Wonder Woman and Batgirl, where are the men who prefer the company of other men?
