The galaxy has a brand new protector, and her name is Shuri!
Hey everyone, welcome to top 10 nerd, the channel that gives you all things comic books
and pop culture!
If you're a regular of the channel, this is a brand spanking new feature we'll be
doing, chatting about the latest news and happenings.
So let's get to it!
Shuri just became a guardian of the galaxy, a development that occurred in Shuri issue
2.
If you've been following the series, or just need some context, T'Challa and Manifold
lost in space, with Wakanda deciding that the Black Panther mantle should go to Shuri.
Shuri wasn't really feeling that; she doesn't have the sweetest of memories when she took
up the mantle in the past.
So what does our hero do instead?
She directs her attention to finding her brother, and ends up finding him via astral projection.
But that plan doesn't work out like she hoped.
Instead, she finds herself inside of Groot's body, saying the line "I am Shuri?"
While this isn't the most conventional way to join the Guardians, it'll be interesting
to find out why exactly this happened, and if there is some sort of unknown connection
between Shuri and Groot that allowed for this to occur.
Guess we'll just have to wait until issue 3!
Next up in news, fans of Ultraman, rejoice!
The hero is getting his own Netflix series.
Set to debut on April 1st of next year, a trailer has dropped for the show, and it's
a follow up to the original Ultraman.
The show will explore Ultraman's return as a hero who has given up being, well, a
hero.
He's older, and his son has now been forced to assume his role when Earth is threatened
by aliens.
From television to feature films, next up, let's talk about that exclusive image that
came out for the upcoming Hellboy film.
Directed by Neil Marshall and starring Stranger Things' David Harbour as our big red hero,
the image shows Hellboy running down a hallway, wearing his trademark coat.
According to the filmmakers, this reboot will be more violent, and leaning much more into
the horror genre, with a R-rating.
Marshall has stated, I quote, "More violent and more bloody.
We weren't making it with handcuffs on."
This wouldn't be a nerdy news update if we didn't include something about the MCU!
Fans of the franchise are eager for clues for what the upcoming film will entail, and
if that past post from the Russo brothers concerning the title of the film was any indicator,
thousands of people are hungry to unravel what little information we already have.
The rumour making the rounds today, according to a writer for Super Bro Movies, is that
Marvel is looking to cast two upcoming roles for the MCU; prominent characters by the names
of Karen and Piper/Sprite.
According to him, these two are Eternals.
According to his speculation, this could mean that these Eternals will be making an appearance
in a post credit scene and obviously future movies, especially considering that there's
rumours that an Eternals film in the works.
While it seems like a long shot to assume that these two will be in the post credits
scene of Avengers 4, but hey, if you believe the fan theories that Eternity will be making
an appearance in scenes with Doctor Strange, it could happen.
Marvel Studios is capable of A LOT.
And there's still a ways to go before the film comes out.
A little while back, it was announced that Netflix had struck up a deal with comic book
writer Mark Millar.
You know him from his comics such as Wanted, Kick-Ass, Kingsman: The Secret Service, as
well as a slew of Marvel comics, including Civil War and the Ultimates!
Netflix has announced that their next upcoming film with Millar is called Sharkey The Bounty
Hunter, which will also have a comic book released concurrently.
Here's the synopsis: "Set in a brilliant new sci-fi universe, Sharkey and the Bounty
Hunter follows the titular character, a blue collar bounty hunter who is tracking criminals
across the galaxy in his converted, rocket powered ice cream truck.
Aided and abetted by his ten year old partner, he's out for the biggest bounty of his career."
Sounds neat, doesn't it?
The film will also be written by Michael Bacall, who worked on Edgar Wright's Scott Pilgrim
vs the World.
And last but not least, more film news for you all, specifically about the upcoming Resident
Evil reboot.
Screenwriter Greg Russo, who is not to be confused with Marvel Studios' Russo brothers,
recently sat down with Discussing Film, and told them how the reboot will be returning
to the horror based tone of the video games, with 2017's Resident Evil 7 Biohazard being
an inspiration for the script.
There's also talk from the executive producers attached to the project that rather than it
being a movie, it might end up being on television instead.
