If you like your boys bad and your hairstyles fierce, you may be a little disappointed to hear that Marvel's premiere bad boy and hair model, Loki, will not be part of The Avengers 2.

It can take time before a rumour transmutes into fact; everyone has known for some time that John C. Reilly was joining Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy but it is only now that this is official enough to slap on an official synopsis or press release.

Do you have any plans for May 2016? Oh, busy. OK how about May 2017? Not sure, well just in case, Marvel and Disney have you covered.
Continuing with their blueprint to ensure there is new superhero film on our screens every six months, Marvel and Disney have pencilled in two dates in the calendar, May 6th 2016 and May 7th 2017. But what hero or heroes will they choose? The speculation can now begin!

Another day, another batch of set-images from Captain America: The Winter Soldier. The other day we showed images of the titular Winter Soldier (played by Once Upon a Time's Sebastian Stan) fighting The First Avenger, and today it's Black Widow's turn.

It would seem that Aaron Taylor-Johnson (of Kick-Ass fame) is in talks to play Pietro ‘Quicksilver' Maximoff in Joss Whedon's sequel to last years' superhero collective, The Avengers Assemble.

More set photos from Captain America: The Winter Soldier emerge and they depict Steve Rogers fighting for his life against the bionic Commie killer.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier is deep into production now, yet the volume of set photos leaking from the production are relatively low (at least when compared to The Amazing Spider-Man 2 or even the official set pics from X-Men: Days of Future Past), but this latest batch are among the most revealing. This series introduces fans to their first look at Soviet bionic assassin The Winter Soldier.

Benicio Del Toro joins not just the Guardians of the Galaxy, but the Marvel Cinematic Universe as a whole, as the acclaimed actor has signed a multi-picture deal with Marvel in what is described as a "lead role".

If there is a blockbuster cast more varied and interesting than Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy, then I have yet to see it.

In anticipation of its release later this year, several new images of Thor: The Dark World have been released via Empire Magazine.
