Doctor Who Filming in Vancouver

According to multiple sources on Twitter, Peter Capaldi announced at filming today that the crew will be heading to Vancouver, British Columbia in October for filming. This would be the first time filming on the show has happened in Canada since the 1996 TV movie. I expect that this will be for block 4, with block 3 being the Christmas special (they're currently on block 2). Of course, take this with a grain of salt until we get further confirmation.

UPDATE: The BBC has disputed this

Man of Steel Sequel Rumored

An anonymous source has told The Wrap that Warner Bros is still developing a sequel to the 2013 Man of Steel film. That film was originally supposed to turn into a Superman trilogy before Warner Bros changed their minds and opted for Batman v Superman. Now it appears that a second Superman solo film is "a top priority for the studio." I'm wondering how much of this has to do with the fact that Man of Steel, Batman v Superman, and Suicide Squad have all gotten mixed reviews and Warner Bros is trying to find something successful. The source said that the solo Batman film (which does not have a release date yet) will likely come before this movie. DC has two untitled films scheduled for 10/5/18 and 11/1/19.

Wolverine 3 Title

Rumors surfaced earlier that the title of the Wolverine threequel will be Wolverine: Weapon X. They seem to be confirmed after it was discovered that Fox has registered the domain name www.wolverineweaponx.com.

Agents of SHIELD Spin-Off Getting Pilot Order

According to new reports circulating online, an new Agents of SHIELD spin-off is going to be getting a pilot episode. The show, titled Marvel's Most Wanted will star Bobbi Morse and Nick Hunter. Rumors of such a show circulated last spring before being killed off after Agents of SHIELD and Agent Carter were both renewed. Jeffrey Bell and Paul Zbyszewski will serve as showrunners, along with Jeph Loeb who will be an additional executive producer. There show currently has no air date associated with it, and a pilot does not guarantee that it will be picked up.

Third Marvel TV Show Coming?

According to a new article from Entertainment Weekly, Marvel is looking to produce a spin-off of Agents of SHIELD. The show (which currently has no plot, title, or cast) would air sometime during the 2015-16 TV season. The people working on it are Jeffrey Bell and Paul Zbyszewski, executive producer and writer of Agents of SHIELD, respectively. According to the article there's won't be an embedded pilot like with the aborted Supernatural spin-off, however it will draw upon story elements from later this season. I'm personally hoping for either an Inhumans spin-off (which seems unlikely now that I write this since they're getting a movie) or SWORD. SWORD is SHIELD's space-based sister agency (at least from my understanding) and has been absent from the MCU so far. Another possibility is Bobbi leaving after the fiasco with two SHIELDs and going off to form the World Counter-terrorism Agency.

Also, keep in mind none of this has been confirmed by Marvel.

Katee Sackhoff Denies Captain Marvel Rumors

The Marvel rumor mill has been suggesting for a while now that Katee Sackhoff (CSI, 24, Battlestar Galactica) has been cast by Marvel to play Captain Marvel in the upcoming Avengers: Age of Ultron. Speaking to the Vulture, she said

At this moment, I have not sat down with anybody from Marvel for any role specifically. But that doesn’t necessarily mean that something with Marvel is completely off the table for the future.

More News on Lost Classic Episodes

For months now, rumors have been circulating that the BBC has unearthed a stash of lost Classic Series episodes. Rumors have been started, rumors have been denied, but now it seems the BBC are calling a press conference to deal with it all. On Tuesday, they are going to announce the discovery of some number of Classic Who episodes. How many episodes, exactly, remains to be seen, but rumors that it's over 100 have been denied.

This from the Mirror

BBC Worldwide has now called a press conference and screening on Tuesday in a London hotel.

The invitation sent out had he event details written inside the screen of a old-fashioned sixties style television set, complete with a dial to tune in the channels, seeming to hint at the type of news to come.

Journalists will be told exactly which old footage has been recovered, with some of it then broadcast on screen to watch.

A senior BBC source said: “There will be big news this Tuesday regarding lost Doctor Who episodes.

“It is great that in the show’s 50th year, fans will now be able to look back with classic episodes as well as looking to the future with the new film-length episode in November.

“For some fans watching their lost episodes will be like going back in time.”

A BBC spokesman played down the reports that more than 100 of the old episodes had been found.

However, when asked if there were some episodes to announce this week, he admitted: “There is a connection.”

Asked for a further official comment, he said he could not say anything more before Tuesday’s press screening.

UPDATE: According to the Radio Times, the episodes will be released for sale on Wednesday morning. They will be released on iTunes, and presumably DVD and other platforms as well.
