The new Supergirl trailer is—as many expected—tonally distinct from the first look. It appears to address some early fan criticisms and hints at a more character-driven story. Whereas Milly Alcock’s Kara initially came across as a jaded, reluctant, almost self-destructive hero, this second trailer reveals a Supergirl with heart.
Seth Rogen may have a voice cameo in the upcoming Supergirl movie. The rumor came from entertainment journalist Jeff Sneider on an episode of The Hot Mic podcast with John Rocha. Sneider dropped the news when sharing what a spy had told him from an early Supergirl test screening. When asked who Rogen might be voicing, Sneider said, “Beats me. I don’t know. I don’t know who it is. Didn’t ask.”
Industry rumors have recently connected Scarlett Johansson to a potential change in project involvement involving Disney’s Tangled and The Batman: Part II.

According to Cosmic Book News, the backlash for the Supergirl trailer has been more severe in its first 24 hours on YouTube than the Superman trailer received its first six months.

Everything about Matt Reeves’ The Batman: Part II is shrouded in secrecy. But World of Reel has compiled a list of rumors that taken together suggest an intriguing narrative direction.

In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, Gunn openly suggested that Batman has effectively run out of storytelling value, calling the character “boring” due to decades of exposure across comics, television, and film.
