I'm going to put this in a spoiler tag just in case for those who are sensitive, but it is the headline of Deadline's article that Alex posted. I'm guessing it will probably be addressed in the trailers in due course because it seems more like a foundational plot point rather than a twist.

When WandaVision and Loki were announced for Blu-ray, someone (I think it was Bill Hunt at The Digital Bits but I'm not sure) said The Falcon and the Winter Soldier was being worked on for next year. That was before Brave New World was pushed to a 2025 release, so I am going to guess The Falcon...

Sam flatly refused it during the course of The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. It would be a major change in his character if he wanted it now. I agree with Josh regarding the importance of the show. The original writer on this film (before the new hire for reshoots) wrote the TV series as...

I think doing that now would really undermine the significance and impact of this being Sam's film, not to mention mess with the perfect ending that Steve got. I'll be surprised if they pull that rabbit out of the hat right now.

Reshoots, in and of themselves, aren't that unusual. Getting a new writer to do them instead of having the original writers handle the new material seems like a much more unusual and drastic step. I want to be hopeful here, but Marvel has put out so much garbage recently that I'm really not...

The first two were produced by 20th Century Fox before that studio was absorbed by Disney. Therefore, Fox did not have the rights to put it into the MCU even if they had wanted to because the MCU is Disney's thing. Now, with Fox being part of Disney, Deadpool is being overseen by Kevin Feige...

It is. I'm not sure what Jerry is looking at but Deadpool is the only Disney-produced Marvel-based movie set for next year. (I think Sony has some from their Venomverse, but don't really pay attention to those.)

As of right now, yes.

Anybody who has read my posts for any significant length of time should know I love the MCU. But I feel my fandom being strained recently because I haven't loved anything from them this year. Fingers crossed that whatever they're changing with the extra time is going to make the movie better...

The trades (Variety, Deadline, etc.) are reporting the date change as well. It's right. I've updated the date in the first post accordingly.

Oh, of course not. There will be additional work to be done on the film in due course before it can come out. But it is probably still a relief to have the principal photography finished before any possible prolonged period of work stoppage.

They sure got that in under the wire relative to the potential SAG-AFTRA strike.

Well, that's a very good reason to change it.

Yikes. I hated the Huxley novel. It bored me to tears. I would have stopped reading it in the middle if it hadn't been assigned for school. Hopefully borrowing it is not indicative of what they're actually doing here.

I was just coming in here to post the same thing. Ha. This news is a genuine surprise.

Anthony Mackie was on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night:

There's nothing for Elliot to come back to because Ang Lee's Hulk is not considered canonical to the MCU. So Hurt was no more a recast than Andrew Garfield or Tom Holland were when they started their franchises separately from the prior films.

I don't love the idea of William Hurt being recast. I still think they should just create a new character to serve the same function as Hurt did. However, I've got to admit Harrison Ford in the MCU is pretty cool.

Cool. I've updated the thread title accordingly.

I hadn't thought about that. That's an excellent point.

It was made for him by the Wakandans.

I haven't seen anything by Julius Onah so don't really have an opinion on him. Obviously, I wish him well. I'm sure I am going to see this and I hope it's great. I don't know what his pitch was that got him the job, so I can't make any judgements there. But when I read this news, my first...

Anthony Mackie has closed his deal to star. This isn't a surprise -- considering where The Falcon and the Winter Soldier left off, they couldn't really do it without him -- but does seem to indicate that things are moving along for the film. Interestingly, the article says Sebastian Stan isn't...

I'm sorry that you feel spoiled and apologize for doing that to you. The news was all over all the major websites this afternoon so I really didn't think anything of it when posting this. That being said, it is interesting that the trades broke the story less than a day after the finale aired...
