The superhero fandom all around the world has gone crazy over the recent announcements from the studio. Over the last few years, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has been struggling; however, Disney and Marvel are on a bit of an upswing after the release of Inside Out 2 and Deadpool and Wolverine. The Marvel Cinematic Universe plans to set up the film Avengers: Secret Wars with the next three films at the very least.

To carry such a significant storyline, they needed to do something equally boisterous; therefore, they announced that they were going to bring in Robert Downey Jr. as Dr. Doom in a 100 million-dollar two-movie deal. The Marvel Cinematic Universe also plans to bring back Elizabeth Olsen as the Scarlet Witch. Announcements in the rumors such as these are what fuel the excitement within the fandom.

Fan sightings, movies, and more

The show Love Island has amassed a massive fan base, one that is constantly on the lookout for new updates on another season. It was revealed that Love Island USA was filming in New York, starting rumors for what the show might be up to next. Grammy award-winning artist Neyo was celebrated for his accomplishments in Las Vegas, Nevada, and was gifted the key to the city. NE-YO declared August 27th as NE-YO Day. The city gave their thanks to the artist for his performances and generosity. The premiere of the Netflix original Jackpot created a lot of buzz for stars Awkwafina John Cena, Paul Fieg, and Simu Liu.

There’s also a lot of noise being made about Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsay Lohan coming back for a second installation of Freaky Friday. Meanwhile, Blake Lively was seen at the UK Gala screening for It Ends with Us. Lastly, Deadpool and Wolverine smashed the box office record for the highest-grossing rated R film when they surpassed Todd Phillips’s Joker. The film has amassed over $1 billion worldwide at the box office.

On the drama side of things, huge releases are facing backlash. Alien Romulus has fans speculating on its ethical uses of AI to bring back an actor from the dead and soon-to-be-released Megalopolis faces criticism for using fake critic quotes in their trailer. A disappointing moment for both franchises.

Final Thoughts

The entertainment industry is constantly moving, changing, and announcing something. Even in the latest parts of August, the industry still squeezes out consistent updates. From Marvel casting announcements to movie premieres, reboots, and celebrations, there’s never a dull moment.
