[box_light]From Marvel, the studio that brought you the global blockbuster franchises of Iron Man, Thor, Captain America and The Avengers, comes a new team—the Guardians of the Galaxy. An action-packed, epic space adventure, Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy” expands the Marvel Cinematic Universe into the cosmos, where brash adventurer Peter Quill finds himself the object of an unrelenting bounty hunt after stealing a mysterious orb coveted by Ronan, a powerful villain with ambitions that threaten the entire universe. To evade the ever-persistent Ronan, Quill is forced into an uneasy truce with a quartet of disparate misfits—Rocket, a gun-toting raccoon, Groot, a tree-like humanoid, the deadly and enigmatic Gamora and the revenge-driven Drax the Destroyer. But when Quill discovers the true power of the orb and the menace it poses to the cosmos, he must do his best to rally his ragtag rivals for a last, desperate stand—with the galaxy’s fate in the balance.[/box_light]

 

Daredevil

More casting news from one of the exciting Marvel Studios and Netflix collaboration, Daredevil. We got word months ago that Daredevil bad guy Wilson Fisk, aka The Kingpin, did indeed have his rights owned by Marvel Studios and not SONY and Spider-Man. Though Fisk has shown up on many occasions to pester the webcrawler, it really didn’t make much sense that the rights wouldn’t be with his true comic book adversary. Meet Vincent D’Onofrio (Men in Black, Full Metal Jacket), Marvel’s new Kingpin!
