  • Aunt May might return in the MCU! Marisa Tomei leaks a big information

    Spider-Man: No Way Home was undoubtedly one of the most emotional and heart touching Marvel movies we have seen in the recent past. With all three Spider-Man versions we have seen in our life coming together for this movie, it gave us a perfect opportunity to cherish our childhood and witness a historic moment in the Marvel Cinematic movement. However, the movie also left a tear or two of heartbreak in our eyes and one of the reasons was undoubtedly the tragic loss of Aunt May.

    Unlike the other versions of Spider-Man, Tom Holland’s Spider-Man does not have an Uncle Ben and Aunty May is his only guardian. She is a loving character who sees the good in every person and we saw her majorly in four movies in the MCU – Civil War, Spider-Man: Homecoming, Spider-Man: Far From Home and Spider-Man: No Way Home.

    Right after the interval when Green Goblin turns rogue in No Way Home, he drops one of his grenades at Aunt May. Peter tries to stop him but he is too late as it slips his hands and Aunt May becomes too grievously injured and dies. This is a heartbreaking moment for Tom Holland’s Peter and an emotional moment for the fans as well. After all, everyone loved Aunty May!

    Marisa Tomei talks about Aunt May’s possible MCU comeback

    In a recent interview, actor Marisa Tomei who plays the role of Aunty May in MCU said that she would love to return as the character. Many think that this might lead to an indication that the Multiversal portals can open up a gate for Aunt May’s comeback as well.

    “I would love to come back and be a part of that. There’s history there, too. May Parker hooks up with Ant-Man. Well, I mean, she’s a standalone character, of course, but there are more avenues to explore,” she said.

    Talking further in the interview about the concept of Multiverse, she said that she could not give any spoilers about it even if she wanted as she herself did not understand the concept properly.

    “Oh yes, there is a Multiverse. That was part of the secrecy originally, now a lot of people know. But the thing was, if anyone asked me about it, I don’t understand the Multiverse myself. Our wonderful director, Jon, and I’m like ‘And so, where am I now? Ok, well, can you explain it to me one more time?” she said.

  • No Way Home writers teases the future possibilities for the Venom Symbiote in MCU

    The one super-villain we missed in Spider-Man: No Way Home was definitely Venom a.k.a Venom played by the brilliant Tom Hardy. Although Marvel gave us the trio of Andrew Garfield, Tobey Maguire and Tom Holland’s Spider-Man (which by the way, was more than enough to please the audience), we missed the Sinister 6 lineup that was being teased ahead of the release. 

    Spider-Man: No Way Home featured 5 of the previous villains of Peter Parker across the Universe – Doctor Octopus, Green Goblin, Sandman, Electro and Lizard. 

    But what is Sinister 6? Well, it is a super-villain organisation started by Dr Octopus according to Marvel comics. Although the original comic-book version of Sinister 6 comprised of Doc Oc, Vulture, Mysterio, Electro, Kraven the Hunter and Sandman, its members have changed over the years and MCU’s version of the group could comprise of Doctor Octopus, Green Goblin, Sandman, Electro, Lizard and Venom. Unfortunately, the makers decided not to use Venom yet in the MCU and thus he did not feature in Spider-Man: No Way Home. 

    Venom in No Way Home’s Post-Credit Scene

    However, Eddie Brock (Tom Hardy) made a cameo in the movie in the post-credit scene. In Venom: Let There be Carnage, we saw Venom being transported to Tom Holland’s universe. Venom pointed Tom Holland on the screen and recognised him due to his hive mind. That marked the end of the movie and was a big teaser for No Way Home.

    In No Way Home’s post-credit scene, we saw that Eddie Brock was confused on arriving into Tom Holland’s universe and he can’t just process what just happened. Before he could figure things out, he was snapped back into his own universe. However, a part of the Symbiote was left behind and it has opened up a plethora of possibilities for the popular Venom Character in MCU. 

    In a recent interview, Spider-Man: No Way Home writer Erik Sommers and Chris McKenna revealed that the post-credit scene has “left open the door open for possibilities” for Venom in MCU. 

    “It leaves the door open for possibilities. As opposed to just seeing him go back and not seeing any symbiote. So it just allows for some exciting possibilities in the future,” Erik Sommers said. 

    However, McKenna said that it was not up to them to decide and someone like Kevin Feige had to take the call. 

    “I have no idea. That is above our pay grade. We are part of a bigger, larger universe that we are not the gods of, we’re just mortals in. I think it was a fun idea that the sixth [member of] the Sinister Six gets stuck in a bar and doesn’t get out of there, but maybe he leaves a little something behind. Again, we’re not masters of that course of that next adventure,” he said.

    Future of Venom in MCU

    While many are of the opinion that now that a part of the Venom Symbiote is left behind, Spidey can use it to summon Hardy’s Venom (as we are familiar with his habit of getting himself in trouble). 

    The Sony-Marvel understanding will have a big role to play if that were to happen but we might see Tom Hardy playing Venom in the MCU. It’s a possibility. 

    However, a more interesting narrative would be Tom Holland getting in touch with the Symbiote himself. We know how Venom can corrupt its host and make him addicted to power. Given the current situation that Tom Holland is in (none of his close ones know him), it will be intriguing to see how he pulls him away from it – or will he decide not to…?

  • Marvel Studios receives Oscar nomination for Two movies in the same category

    The year 2021 belonged to Marvel. The Marvel Cinematic Universe came up with some masterpiece movies and series (Disney+ MCU series) in 2021. MCU fans were introduced with the concept of Multiverse for the first time in 2021 through Marvel’s Disney+ series WandaVision and Loki. They added to that theory with their Magnum Opus film of the year, Spider-Man: No Way Home which became one of their most successful blockbusters ever. 

    Apart from these, MCU added a number of new characters in their roster with Shang Chi and The Legend of the ten Rings and Eternals. They also stuck to their small-scale projects with Hawkeye and Falcon and the Winter Soldier, both of which were again Disney+ series. Marvel thus expanded their cinematic universe ten folds in 2021. 

    No Way Home and Shang Chi get nominated for Oscars

    They have now been rightfully awarded for their achievements as two of their movies – Shang Chi and The Legend of the Ten Rings and Spider-Man: No Way Home have been nominated for oscars. 

    Both the movies have been nominated for the same category – Best Visual Effects. A major part of almost every Marvel movie is made with CGI effects. Spider-Man: Now Way Home was almost entirely CGI manipulated. The fight between Peter Parker and Dr. Strange in the mirror dimension was probably the best Visual effects in the movie. It was done completely with the help of CGI.

    Moreover, every Super-villain in the movie except William Defoe’s Green Goblin needed some sort of CGI manipulation – like Doc Ock’s mechanical arms and Electro’s glow. Not to mention, Sandman and Lizards were completely VFX made. 

    In Shang Chi, the final battle between Wenwu and Shang Chi which included the Ten Rings was undoubtedly the best scene of the movie. The visual effects and the details involved in that scene were just perfect. Moreover, the scene involving the Great Protector and the Dweller in Darkness was absolutely sensational as well.

    However, many Marvel fans are disappointed as Spider-Man: No Way Home was not nominated for the Best picture award. However, the competition in that category was immense and as we all know, SuperHero movies are often not prioritized in these categories. “Belfast,” “Coda,” “Don’t Look Up,” “Drive My Car,” “Dune,” “King Richard,” “Licorice Pizza,” “Nightmare Alley,” “The Power of the Dog,” and “West Side Story” were all nominated for the Best Picture. 

    Although the two marvel movies are top contenders to win the Oscar for Best Visual effects, they have tough competition there as well. ‘Dune’, ‘No Time To Die’ and ‘Free Guy’ have also been nominated. Sci Fi epic ‘Dune’ is a favorite to win the award.
