Rosario Dawson Cast as Ahsoka Tano?

While Season Two of The Mandalorian may have wrapped for actress Gina Carano, there may be more left to shoot. SlashFilm broke the story that Rosario Dawson has been cast as the fan-favorite character Ahsoka Tano. If true, this will mark the first time Ahsoka has appeared in a live-action Star Wars story.

Is Mark Ruffalo Appearing In She-Hulk?

Marvel announced a She-Hulk TV series last year for their Disney+ streaming series. Aside from who might play the title character, one of the first questions was whether Mark Ruffalo will reprise his role as Bruce Banner/Hulk for the show.

Reports are surfacing that Ruffalo will indeed appear in the series. Give the close nature between Hulk and She-Hulk, it would be difficult to tell her story without him in at least the premiere episode.

In the comics, Jennifer Walters was a lawyer who needed a blood transfusion after being shot and critically wounded by a crime boss. However, unlike the traditional case with Bruce and The Hulk, Walters had control over her changing ability and could change to and from She-Hulk at will.

She-Hulk will debut sometime in 2021 on Disney+ and will fit into Marvel’s Phase Four in its Cinematic Universe.

Could a Classic X-Men Member Be the Villain In Captain Marvel 2?

It’s no secret that Marvel will begin incorporating mutants into the MCU. Exactly which mutants will appear where and when remains to be seen, but a few rumors and clues have surfaced in the past few weeks.

One of the biggest rumors making the rounds is that Rogue will appear in the yet-untitled Captain Marvel sequel. Not only that, but she will also be one of the film’s villains. Obviously no casting has been announced, but the chances of Anna Paquin reprising the role are pretty slim.

Longtime fans know that Rogue wasn’t always one of the X-Men. In fact, she first appeared as a member of The Brotherhood alongside her mother figure Mystique. Unlike her big-screen counterpart, the comic version possessed super-strength, invulnerability, and flying abilities.

How did she acquire those superpowers? Enter Carol Danvers.

Depending on the book or animated series episode, Rogue either deliberately or was forced to use her power absorption on her. At this time, Carol was known as Miss Marvel. Due to Rogue using the power for a longer time than usual, her absorption was permanent. Carol was left comatose from the attack.

But after time with The Brotherhood, and all the absorption of memories and emotions from those she attacked, Rogue eventually turned good and joined The X-Men.

Captain Marvel 2 has yet to secure a firm release date but may not get made until Marvel’s Phase Five. This would put Carol’s second big-screen adventure at 2022 or 2023 at the earliest.
