Darkwing Duck Reboot in the Works at Disney Plus

A Darkwing Duck reboot is in early development and will be headed to Disney Plus.

According to Variety, the reboot has no writer currently attached but is reportedly being executive produced by Seth Rogen, Evan Goldberg, James Weaver, and Alex McAtee of Point Grey Pictures, the production company behind Amazon’s The Boys, The Disaster Artist, Sausage Party, and This is the End.

Darkwing Duck originally premiered in 1991, telling the story of Drake Mallard, his adopted daughter Gosalyn, and his sidekick Launchpad McQuack, who was also in DuckTales. It ran for three seasons encompassing 91 episodes

The series riffed on superhero culture as Darkwing Duck and company routinely fought against evildoers. The series ended in 1992, with a number of comics published throughout the 1990s and 2010s, a Darkwing Duck NES game, and a cameo in the 2017 DuckTales reboot, which you can watch above.

There’s currently no word on who will voice Darkwing Duck or other series characters. Jim Cummings (Winnie the Pooh, Tigger, Star Wars’ Hondo Ohnaka) originally voiced Darkwing Duck.

Disney Plus is rolling ahead with other continuations of cult favorite franchises, including an announced Willow sequel starring Warwick Davis.

Lilo & Stitch: Jon M. Chu May Direct Live-Action Reboot

A live-action reboot of 2002's Lilo & Stitch was announced earlier this year and it seems Disney is circling John M. Chu to direct, According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Crazy Rich Asians director is in negotiations with Disney to direct a live-action remake of Lilo & Stitch for the company, but it's unclear if this movie would go to theaters or straight to Disney+. We learned earlier this year that this Lilo & Stitch will be a live-action/CGI hybrid movie and filmed in Hawaii, which is also where the movie takes place. It was reported at the time that the original voice of Stitch, Chris Sanders, was expected to reprise the role for this film. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=every-upcoming-disney-live-action-remake&captions=true"] THR's report says that Dan Lin and Jonathan Eirich of production company Rideback are going to produce the movie with Rideback's Ryan Halprin set to executive produce. Rideback is the company behind Disney's live-action Aladdin remake, which earned over $1 billion at the box office in 2019 and secured a green light for a sequel. Mike Van Waes has written a draft for this Lilo & Stitch remake, but it's important to note that the movie hasn't officially been given the green light and is still in development. Lilo & Stitch is about a lonely girl named Lilo who discovers a blue alien named Stitch on the run from intergalactic forces. The two become friends and Lilo tries to stop the intergalactic forces from ripping Stitch out of her Ohana, which means family. Oh, and there's a lot of Elvis Presley music too. When the original animated movie released in 2002, it grossed $273 million at the box office from a budget of $80 million. This success led to video games, sequels, spin-offs, and an animated TV series for Disney Channel.

Chris Pratt Joins Cast of Thor: Love and Thunder

Chris Pratt will reportedly reprise his role as Peter Quill, aka Star-Lord, in Marvel's Thor: Love and Thunder. Pratt, who leads the MCU's Guardians of the Galaxy franchise, will join Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, Tessa Thompson, and Christian Bale in the Taika Waititi-directed sequel. Waititi will also once again voice Thor's alien pal Korg. Peter Quill and Thor enjoyed a friendly rivalry in Avengers: Infinity War and Avengers: Endgame, the latter of which saw the heavyset Bro Thor leave his fellow Asgardians behind on Earth under the leadership of Valkyrie to join the Guardians. The Hollywood Reporter implies other members of the Guardians could appear in Thor: Love and Thunder. According to THR's Heat Vision newsletter, "Love and Thunder is due to shoot in Australia in January, and Pratt will do a short round of additional photography for his sci-fi movie The Tomorrow War before heading to the land Down Under." While we don't know which character Christian Bale is playing, we do have some theories about the role.

Black Panther 2: Marvel Won't Use a Digital Double of Chadwick Boseman

A Marvel Studios executive producer has confirmed that Disney will not use a digital double of late actor Chadwick Boseman in a Black Panther sequel.

In an interview with Clarin, executive producer Victoria Alonso dismissed the idea of digitally recreating Boseman, who died from colon cancer in August at the age of 43.

“No. There's only one Chadwick, and he's not with us. Our king, unfortunately, has died in real life, not just in fiction, and we are taking a little time to see how we return to history and what we do to honor this chapter of what has happened to us that was so unexpected, so painful, so terrible, really," Alonso said.

Alonso, who has been with Marvel Studios since Phase One of the MCU, said of Boseman that he "was not only a wonder of being human every day that we spend together the five years that we spend together, but it also seems to me that as a character what he did elevated us as a company, and has left his moment in history."

Alonso added that no decision has been made yet about what Marvel will do with the Black Panther franchise now: "I know that sometimes two months go by or three months go by in production and one says, already, it was a long time. But it is not a long time, we have to think carefully about what we are going to do, and how, and think about how we are going to honor the franchise.”

[widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=how-the-mcus-phase-4-could-introduce-the-x-men&captions=true"]

Using digital effects to recreate Boseman's T'Challa certainly isn’t out of the realm of possibility, considering Disney utilized CGI to portray deceased actors like Peter Cushing (Grand Moff Tarkin) in Rogue One and a younger version of Carrie Fisher in Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and Rogue One.

Disney may be even more hesitant to use a CGI double since various Black Panther actors have expressed their dismay over how to continue the franchise without Boseman.

"We're just still mourning Chad, so it's not something I even want to think about," Wright said when asked about reprising her role as Shuri, Princess of Wakanda, for the Black Panther sequel. "The thought of doing it without him is kinda strange. We're just grieving at the moment, so it's trying to find the light in the midst of it."

Black Panther 2 was originally scheduled to be released in 2022, though, with complications stemming from COVID, Disney’s schedule is likely to be altered in the future.

Report: Police Operation Underway Near Ubisoft Montreal Office

Canadian news outlets are reporting a police situation taking place at the building where Ubisoft Montreal is based. Montreal PD has confirmed there is a police operation in the sector where the offices are located but didn’t provide any further details. The Montreal Journal first reported a possible hostage situation in Montreal near where Ubisoft’s offices are located, on Saint-Laurent Boulevard in the Mile End area of Montreal. The Montreal police have not confirmed any details beyond a police operation, however.

Assassin’s Creed Valhalla’s Main Location Is a Huge Historical Coincidence

Ravensthorpe, the Viking settlement that players build and customise in Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, is a fictional place invented by Ubisoft’s writers. Except it isn't all that fictional after all: Ravensthorpe is actually a real place in England, and the developers had no idea until a few months before the game launched.

In AC Valhalla, the fictional settlement of Ravensthorpe is located in the middle of England’s central kingdom, Mercia. "We chose the name Ravensthorpe because Eivor's clan was the Raven clan, and Thorpe means 'farmland'... and we set the settlement in the middle of Mercia so it was centrally located on the map,” explained Assassin’s Creed Valhalla’s Narrative Director, Darby McDevitt, in a thread about the discovery on Reddit.

The real Ravensthorpe, meanwhile, is a village in Northamptonshire. It may not have originated as a Viking settlement, but in its position just slightly south east of Coventry, it is pretty much in the middle of England. “We had NO idea that there was a real Ravensthorpe in exactly this location in real life, until a few months ago,” said McDevitt. “Granted there is no river running by the real Ravensthorpe, but a lot can happen in 1000 years. Rivers change courses.”

It’s an absurd coincidence, and one that certainly has amused the Reddit users who brought the topic up. Northamptonshire. However, this village isn’t the only place called Ravensthorpe in England; type the name into Wikipedia and you’ll easily find that Ravensthorpe is also a district in West Yorkshire, an area in Peterborough, and a historic manor in North Yorkshire. None of these appear to be Viking/Assassin settlements established by Eivor, though.

It also features the first meeting between Smith and Janet Hubert - the original Aunt Viv - for 27 years.

CD Projekt Red has announced that the next episode of Night City Wire, the reveal stream that offers details on Cyberpunk 2077, will air next Thursday.

Future State: All of DC's Superman Family Comics in February 2021

DC Comics has begun revealing tis lineup of February 2021 titles, including the second half of DC's ambitious Future State event. IGN can exclusively reveal the cover art and plot details for the entire Superman Family line in February. Check out the slideshow gallery below to get a closer look at these new books, as DC continues revealing the fates of Superman and Wonder Woman a decade in the future and beyond. [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=future-state-all-of-dcs-superman-family-comics-in-february-2021&captions=true"] In case you missed the original announcement, Future State is a massive, two month-long crossover taking place in January and February 2021, immediately after DC's Dark Nights: metal crossover ends on January 6. The crossover will flash forward ten years into the future of the DC Universe. In this future, Kal-El has been exiled from Earth, leaving his son Jon to take up the Superman mantle. Meanwhile, a new Amazon heroine named Yara Flor will become Wonder Woman though Future State will also focus on fellow Wonder Women Diana of Themyscira and Nubia. As these solicitations show, Future State will even venture further down the DC timeline. Future State: House of El will showcase the descendants of Superman, while Future State: Imperious Lex pits Lex Luthor against an aged Superman and Lois Lane on the distant world of Lexor. Future State is also introducing a brand new version of Batman, one who will fill the void left after Bruce Wayne's apparent death. That character will be the focal point of John Ridley and Nick Derington's Batman story. With DC revealing its February lineup today, that means fans probably only have one more month until they learn what DC has planned for March 2021. While the DC line will return to the present day in March, we don't know how exactly the company plans on moving forward after Future State or what monthly books they'll be publishing at that point. That said, we can probably expect some sort of major relaunch in the vein of 2016's DC Rebirth, though we now know Death Metal won't rewrite DC continuity in the vein of past Crisis events.

Wonder Woman 1984: Warner Bros Reportedly Considering Delay or Early Streaming Debut

Warner Bros. execs are reportedly reconsidering release plans for Wonder Woman 1984. According to Variety, sources with insider knowledge have claimed that the studio is debating whether to delay WW84 to the summer of 2021 or theatrically release the Patty Jenkins sequel on December 25, as planned, before making it available to stream on HBO Max in January. Bloomberg reported on the streaming option, saying "WarnerMedia is in the final stages of deliberations over the fate of the movie." Throughout all of the changes, it has been made repeatedly clear that Wonder Woman 1984 would not skip its theatrical release altogether, with Jenkins reaffirming this decision after the latest scheduling shift, saying, "I know how important it is to bring this movie to you on a big screen when all of us can share the experience together, [so] I'm hopeful you won't mind waiting just a little bit longer." [ignvideo url="https://www.ign.com/videos/2020/08/22/wonder-woman-1984-official-trailer-2"] Studios have been looking at alternative ways of releasing major blockbusters during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, but the most popular strategy appears to be delaying releases in the hopes of the theatrical experience improving. Disney, however, took a slightly different approach with one of its most anticipated blockbusters, Mulan, which released on Disney+ with an additional $30 price tag. Wonder Woman 1984 was originally slated to open in theaters on November 1, 2019, before getting postponed to June 5, 2020, and then to August 14, 2020. As time moved on this year, the movie's release shifted to October 2, but the pandemic caused Warner Bros. to rethink their plans yet again, with an announcement in September revealing that the movie had been pushed back to Christmas Day.
