The entire point of Marvel’s Secret Invasion series is to tap into people’s deep, existisitential anxieties about being replaced and destroyed by hostile adversaries. That makes the studio’s choice to create the show’s opening credits sequence with AI-generated art make a certain amount of sense.

Transformers: Rise of the Beasts took first place at the box office this weekend with a $60.5 million opening across 3,678 theaters, according to Variety. Following it was Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, at $55.4 million from 4,332 theaters.

With the next MCU series set for a Disney Plus debut on June 21st, the marketing for Secret Invasion is winding up, but with a spy twist this time. Instead of just dropping yet another trailer, it’s stored on this dedicated site that requests a password (RSD3PX5N7S), which is conveniently listed in the tweet.

While most of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse’s creatives were seasoned professionals, Preston Mutanga, the genius behind the movie’s brief foray into a stop-motion world full of Lego characters, is a Canadian teen — the same who recreated the movie’s trailer:

That’s the new name for the franchise’s fourth installment, which was previously called Captain America: New World Order. The upcoming flick is part of Phase 5 of the MCU, and is set to hit theaters on May 3rd, 2024, starring Anthony Mackie, Harrison Ford, Danny Ramirez, and Shira Haas.

Sony’s Across the Spider-Verse isn’t just a breathtaking work of art — it’s a seminal piece of Spider-Man storytelling that rightfully establishes Miles Morales as this generation’s definitive webhead. Across the Spider-Verse’s trailers alone have been tremendous, but check out our review to read more about what makes the movie work so, so well.

At Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse’s LA premiere this week, producer Amy Pascal teased that Miles Morales is definitely making his live-action debut in the near future, and Sony’s already working on another Spider-Man starring Tom Holland:

Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse (Part One) is very quickly getting into “the whole movie’s been spoiled by trailers” territory.

In coordination with the release of Guardians of the Galaxy 3 (and calling back this deleted scene from the second movie), Microsoft is giving away this unopened 8GB “green” Zune to a US resident over the age of 18.

Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 is out, and if the end of what is arguably one of the brighter moments of the seriously bloated MCU has you bummed, I have good news! There’s a Guardians of the Galaxy game from Eidos Montreal that was criminally underrated and will give you more time to hang out with the galaxy’s most dysfunctional chosen family.

They might not be raccoons per se, but the furry creatures at the heart of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 are pretty damn cute and a technical marvel.

With The Marvels’ new trailer comes a reminder that Ms. Marvel’s family heirloom — the mysterious bangle that unlocked her energy-manipulation powers — might just be the snazziest piece of wearable comics-inspired tech the MCU’s seen yet.

And then what if Marvel Studios made sure that the episode introducing Kahhori, the MCU’s new character who hails from the precolonial Haudenosaunee Confederacy, was “created in close collaboration with members of the Mohawk Nation” in order to make sure her debut was both respectful and authentic to Haudenosaunee culture?

Jonathan Majors’ Kang the Conqueror may be Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania’s villain, but in a new interview with The Washington Post, he makes it abundantly clear that his time-traveling character isn’t just a bad guy popping up in Quantumania and Loki. He’s the MCU’s new long-term Big Bad™ who’s going to make the Avengers sweat, and Majors wouldn’t have signed on if that weren’t the case.

Kevin Feige doesn’t want people feeling like they have to study up on the MCU before they watch lore-heavy movies like the new Ant-Man, or to ever think of Marvel’s Disney Plus shows as just “content.”

Marvel Snap’s long awaited Battle Mode, which allows players to directly challenge others in a new game mode, launches tomorrow. Consequently, also launching tomorrow is Ash’s campaign to make new friends as all her old ones leave in disgust and shame after getting beat by her in Marvel Snap.
