In MCU news, Nick Fury (Samuel L Jackson) is rumoured to be the big extended cameo in the Captain Marvel movie (a la Iron Man in Soider-Man: Homecoming). Claire Foy looks set to be a big star in the next few years! As well as The Crown, she's going to be in Breathe, the Damien Chazelle directed Neil Armstrong biopic also starring Ryan Gosling and now this! I really like her as a person and an actress so excited to see what she does with these roles. Nick Fury is like the least interesting character in the MCU for me (mainly because he has no superpowers ) but Jackson is always fun so will be nice to see him pop up again, feels like it's been a while!

So excited for this, been waiting SOOO long! Also, the Bryan Singer (X-men movies, The Usual Suspects) directed Freddie Mercury biopic is now officially going to happen with Rami Malek in the lead role. A shame the Sacha Baron Cohen when never materialised as I would be much more excited for that but it does still look promising.

(All performed by the original performers) Oh yes, this does look like a brilliant idea. It reminds me of the Lego Batman Movie when people like the Wicked Witch of the West and Voldemort etc. showed up and it was like the coolest moment ever. It'll be exciting to see some of the older Disney princesses in 3D animation too

I really think this woulda been the very best year to go! - 'Infinity War' footage has received standing ovations and a rapturous crowd reaction. - 'Star Wars: The Last Jedi' footage has gone down well! - 'Circle Of Life' sequence from the live action 'Lion King' has gone down amazingly too! All that on top of what's already been posted/other things which have leaked etc..
