Marvel's blockbuster Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness promises surprising characters, as teased in trailers and promotional clips.

One day, Thor receives a plea from Lady Sif (Jaimie Alexander). He bids farewell to the Guardians of the Galaxy and, accompanied by his friend Korg (Taika Waititi), goes to rescue his old companion. Sif warns Thor about Gorr (Christian Bale), a mysterious villain wielding the Necrosword, capable of killing gods. Thor decides to rally gods from different planets, urging them to unite against the dangerous foe.

The two-minute video doesn't reveal much dialogue or plot details. It begins with agent Ethan Hunt reuniting with IMF director Eugene Kittridge. His days of fighting for a noble cause have ended.

Batman, one of the world's renowned superheroes, has seen numerous cinematic adaptations over the years. However, The Batman has chosen its unique path, diverging from its predecessors.

When it comes to DC Comics, Batman cannot be ignored. A silent hero protecting the city in the shadows, instilling eternal fear in criminals. Many film adaptations have been widely produced based on this iconic character. Notably, Christopher Nolan's Batman trilogy stands out. In addition, the Batman brand has garnered numerous prestigious awards in the film industry. To please fans, The Batman (2022), directed by Matt Reeves and featuring silver screen stars, is in the making. The film is expected to adopt a noir style, emphasizing detective and crime elements over action, unlike its predecessors. In this latest version, viewers will witness the darkest Batman ever to grace the screen. It can be said that The Batman takes a completely different direction, from content to execution style.

Traditionally, the Joker has always been a formidable adversary for the Dark Knight. However, in the new installment, the primary antagonist is the Riddler (Paul Dano). He is a psychotic murderer who often leaves clues behind in his homicides to challenge both the police and Batman. Therefore, The Batman has transcended the common path of the franchise, carving out its own unique identity.

The sequel to the superhero film Aquaman is likely to lead the audience on a journey through two underwater kingdoms. On June 28, the superhero film Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom officially started filming. The information was commemorated by director James Wan with a behind-the-scenes photo posted on his personal Instagram.

According to Inverse, the photo of Wan's set board in the middle of an ice cave could subtly reveal to the audience the main antagonist's essence in the film. Necrus is also the name of an underwater city that appeared in DC comics. This city is ruled by a ruthless leader named Mongo. He harbors hatred for all life above the surface, believing they are not allowed to set foot in the sea. Mongo is not among the most notorious villains in the DC superhero universe, similar to Necrus.

However, from James Wan's photo, both Necrus and Mongo are likely to coexist in Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom. The prediction gains more ground as the books depict a war between Necrus and Atlantis.
