REPORTED: Mandalorian Season 3 Will Wrap Filming Spring 2022
One could say that we are currently in a Star Wars intermission. The Bad Batch ended its successful first season in early August. The anime anthology Star Wars: Visions is scheduled for next week on September 22, 2021. The Book of Boba Fett will be released sometime in December 2021. Principal photography has reportedly finished for Obi-Wan Kenobi, with the series coming out sometimes in 2022. Filming has also wrapped for Andor, which will join Obi-Wan Kenobi for a 2022 release. What is a Star Wars aficionado to do in the meantime other than scour the internet looking for any information about upcoming Star Wars projects?

Guy Pearce States His MCU Character May Not Be Gone Forever
It is a dream of many actors and actresses to be a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It is also a dream to play a villain in the MCU. However, the problem is, if you do get a dream role as a villain in the MCU, chances are, your character will be killed off or destroyed by the end movie, or a second one, if you are lucky. Many actors and actresses don’t think that one movie is enough and many would love the chance to come back. Guy Pearce is one of these actors.

Why The Rule Of Two Doesn't Make Any Sense
There can only be two, a master, and an apprentice. The Rule of Two, as it is known, is one of the most important core tenants of the Sith during the time of the prequel and original trilogy. It is how they have operated for the last few thousand years until they came out of hiding under Palpatine and created the Galactic Empire. However, was it really the Rule of Two that saved them? Did the ideology formed by the legendary Darth Bane actually accomplish their goals, or was it in spite of this that they won? Well let's take a look and see if the Rule of Two is as great as the Sith themselves claim to be.

Jon Bernthal Opens Up About A Return To Punisher Role In The MCU
Jon Bernthal’s Frank Castle was one of the best renditions of the Punisher that I have ever seen on screen (although I do love watching Thomas Jane go after John Travolta). Although the second season was a little rocky and clearly missed the mark with die-hard Punisher fans, myself included, it was still a really good addition to the Netflix Marvel pantheon. I cannot imagine anyone else in the role of Frank Castle now. However, with the future of the Netflix heroes we know and love and their place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) thrown into limbo, it is unclear if we will see these characters again on the big or small screen. Several of the actors from those shows have stated their interest in returning to the role, and some people have speculated that Charlie Cox’s Matt Murdock may appear in Spider-Man: No Way Home. However, Jon Bernthal commented on whether he would like to return as the Punisher in the future.

Droids Vs Clones: Which Is The Better Army?
In Star Wars, the Galactic Republic stood for thousands of years during a period of unprecedented peace, but all good things must come to an end.

Frank Oz Describes How He Came Up With Yoda's Unique Way Of Speaking
The Star Wars franchise is one of the most iconic of all time. The first three films of George Lucas’s space opera proved that the world craved science fiction stories on the big screen, and that they had potential to make it big at the box office. The second film in the trilogy, The Empire Strikes Back, introduced the world to the character known as Master Yoda.

The Real Life Implications Of Luke Skywalker's Actions In 'Star Wars'
When the first Star Wars movie was released back in 1977, it was clear that this was a classic story of good vs evil. George Lucas did his absolute best to ensure audiences understood Luke Skywalker, and by extension the Jedi/Rebels, were the good guys, and the Empire were the bad guys. This theme obviously continued throughout the original trilogy, then the prequel trilogy showed us just how the galaxy ended up under the control of Emperor Sheev Palpatine.

Armorer Actress Discusses Her Character's Future After 'The Mandalorian' Season 1
The first season of The Mandalorian introduced a fair amount of new Star Wars characters to Disney+ viewers a couple of years ago. Din Djarin and Grogu were the focus of the show, but there were some interesting side characters as well, one of them being a Mandalorian simply known as "The Armorer," portrayed by Emily Swallow. We last saw her in the aftermath of Imperials having killed some underground Mandalorians on the planet Navarro. She remains behind, and is able to take down some stormtroopers who come her way.

Brie Larson Shares Intense Training Video For ‘The Marvels’
In 2019 Brie Larson starred as the titular Captain Marvel in the latest Marvel Cinematic Universe smash hit. The movie was mainly set in the 1980's and told the origin story of Carol Danvers, the talented Air Force pilot who became Captain Marvel. We saw the journey of an amnesiac Kree Starforce member, her meeting with Nick Fury before the formation of the Avengers, her subsequent transformation into Captain Marvel, as well as the role she played in the war between the Skull and the Kree. Danvers was arguably the strongest Avenger given the raw power resulting from the cosmic energy she absorbed from the Tesseract. We would agree that intense physical training was necessary to prepare her to wield such power.
