First look at Joaquin Phoenix in make-up from "Joker"

Joaquin Phoenix is the best living actor today. I dare you to give me a more excitingly original acting voice out there. The fact that he's been cast for the ‘Batman’ spin-off film, ‘Joker,’ directed by Todd Phillips, is enough to make it into a major movie event next year.

This decade Phoenix has given usincredible work in films such as "Two Lovers," "Her," "You Were Never Really Here," "The Master," and "The Immigrant." 

We finally got a look today at Phoenix, with makeup, as the Joker, and, suffice to say, he may not look like your token Joker, but, purists be damned, he is creepy as hell.  

‘Joker’ hits theaters on October 4, 2019.

Disney CEO admits, Star Wars movies were "a little too much, too fast" and to "expect some slowdown"

Courtesy of THR:

"I made the timing decision, and as I look back, I think the mistake that I made — I take the blame — was a little too much, too fast. You can expect some slowdown, but that doesn't mean we're not going to make films. J.J. [Abrams] is busy making [Episode] IX. We have creative entities, including [Game of Thrones creators David] Benioff and [D.B.] Weiss, who are developing sagas of their own, which we haven't been specific about. And we are just at the point where we're going to start making decisions about what comes next after J.J.'s. But I think we're going to be a little bit more careful about volume and timing. And the buck stops here on that."

Disney CEO confirms Kevin Feige will oversee the X-Men, Fantastic 4, and Deadpool

When Disney bought Fox, Marvel head Kevin Feige was saying don't expect the X-Men or any other Fox entities to join the MCU for, at least, a handful of years after the deal is done. 

He stated the characters weren't under Marvel's control yet so until the deal goes through and that happens he's not planning anything. 

However, the deal has gone through and Feige's boss over at Disney Bob Iger, speaking to [THR], is saying Feige is ready to oversee the X-Men, Fantastic 4, and Deadpool.

"I think it only makes sense [that Feige takes over]. I want to be careful here because of what's been communicated to the Fox folks, but I think they know. It only makes sense for Marvel to be supervised by one entity. There shouldn't be two Marvels."

On If Deadpool could become an Avenger:

"Kevin's got a lot of ideas. I'm not suggesting that's one of them. But who knows?"
