Theaters may have nothing new to show right now, but we still have plenty to share with you here at ComicBookMovie.com. There's lots to delve into in this latest Marvel news roundup, and we kick things off with a new look at the Guardians of the Galaxy ride coming to Disney World.
Jeremy Renner, meanwhile, is hard at work preparing to reprise the role of Clint Barton in Disney+'s Hawkeye, and talking of the streaming service, Paul Bettany has made some odd comments about The Vision's, ahem, privates in WandaVision we can't imagine the House of Mouse will appreciate.
There's also some Spider-Man 3 casting news which may offer an idea of where the story is going.
So, take a look through this Marvel movie and TV news roundup by clicking the "Next" button below!
5. Guardians Of The Galaxy Ride Coming To Disney World
The Disney Parks have spent most of this year closed, hence why we've all been unable to pay a visit to Disneyland's Avengers Campus. However, with Disney World now open in Orlando, work is continuing on Epcot's highly anticipated Guardians of the Galaxy ride, and we have a first look at it in action.
Described as a one-of-a-kind "Omnicoaster," the ride's vehicles can rotate 360 degrees and even perform a reverse launch. As the video explained, it can be programmed to point in any direction while those on board are travelling at high speed, and it appears this will be one heck on an experience.
4. Jeremy Renner Begins Training For Hawkeye
While we still don't have any official word on who will play Kate Bishop in the upcoming Hawkeye TV series, Jeremy Renner has indicated that he's already preparing to reprise the role of Clint Barton.
In the Twitter video above, the actor reveals that he's getting back in shape ready to return to the Marvel Cinematic Universe. "It’s time to train after a three year break," the actor captioned the video, referring to when he shot Avengers: Endgame. "Fluidity, speed, and PAIN is in my future."
With any luck, this means that production is beginning on Hawkeye sooner rather than later.
3. Spider-Man 3 Looking For Paparazzi
It's often thanks to the paparazzi that we get a first look at blockbuster movies like Spider-Man 3, and yesterday's set video seemed to indicate that the movie picks up right where the last one ended.
That's not a bad thing, though, especially if it means we get to see more of Peter Parker's reaction to having his secret identity outed and being framed for murder by Mysterio. Now, a casting call appears to have come out for the threequel (via CLCasting) which indicates that Marvel Studios is looking for a Hispanic male between 30 and 50 to play a paparazzi member in the movie.
Something tells us that means we can expect to see the web-slinger hounded by the press after the way Quentin Beck turned his life upside down at the end of Spider-Man: Far From Home.
2. Anthony Mackie And Sebastian Stan's War Of Words
The Falcon and The Winter Soldier star Sebastian Stan recently took to Instagram to share a video of himself and Anthony Mackie hyping each other up from the Prague set of the Disney+ series.
Why? Well, they joined the Ronald McDonald House's Virtual Gala earlier this week to help provide support for advanced cancer treatment, and the point of this was to draw attention to that cause. Why are we sharing it now? Well, while it doesn't include any new intel on their show, they both share how thankful they are to be part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (which we're sure you'll appreciate).
Make sure to check out the video in the Instagram post above.
1. Paul Bettany Gets Weird Talking About WandaVision
During a recent interview with Comedy Central, Paul Bettany tackled some NSFW questions about his role as The Vision in upcoming Disney+ TV series WandaVision. Asked if the show will feature nudity, the actor responded, "No, there is no nudity, so to speak."
That's hardly a surprise, but interviewer Josh Horowitz went on to ask whether The Vision actually has sex (Avengers: Infinity War certainly hinted that was the case). "Whether he does or doesn't," the actor pondered, "Vision can change his density, so there's that."
Bettany went on to confirm that, yes, The Vision's penis is indeed "purple." So, now you know.
