      Report: Chadwick Boseman Could Be Replaced as Black Panther Due to Pay Dispute

      by

      Marvel Studios

      Words are the ‘Marshall’ star wasn’t happy with Marvel and wants a pay raise, but the studio is eager to replace Black Panther with another character as its primary black hero.
      Apr 21, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Chadwick Boseman’s tenure as Black Panther could be a short one. The actor, who made his debut as the Wakanda superhero in “Captain America: Civil War”, is reportedly on the verge of losing his role due to pay dispute.
      According to We Got This Covered, a report from 4chan stated that the actor was not happy with Marvel and wants a pay raise. But the studio won’t budge and instead has already had a back-up plan to put another Marvel character as the primary black hero in the MCU.
      The studio reportedly wants “Namor to replace Black Panther as their premiere black hero, with Atlantis being made up of sub-saharans who integrated with the original Atlanteans (lending more weight to Kilmonger’s famous epitaph).”
      While some of Marvel stars, particularly the original “Avengers” actors such as Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Scarlett Johansson and Chris Hemsworth, are known to have scored big paychecks following the big success of the franchise, the studio wouldn’t hesitate to recast a role if an issue came up with the actor. A similar situation previously happened to Terrence Howard, who was replaced by Don Cheadle as James Rhodes in “Iron Man 2” and the subsequent movies after Howard demanded a big pay raise.
      After being introduced as T’Challa in 2016’s “Captain America: Civil War”, Boseman led the cast of the first solo Black Panther movie (2018). He later reprised the role in “Avengers: Infinity War”, which was released in the same year, and 2019’s “Avengers: Endgame”.
      Back in November 2019, the “Marshall” star expressed his hope for a “Black Panther” sequel. “I think, you know, hopefully we can maintain the foundation that we sort of set and build upon it and expand it and explore it. That’s what I hope,” he shared. “But I think first you have to maintain the foundation. We built a culture and a world, so you have to make sure that you keep that in place.”

      Pierce Brosnan Recalls Meeting Drunk Quentin Tarantino Over Bond Movie Pitch

      by

      WENN

      The ‘GoldenEye’ actor spills on the encounter story he had with the ‘Once Upon a Time in Hollywood’ director during a live video interview that accompanied an online viewing party for his 1995 Bond film.
      Apr 21, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Pierce Brosnan was once pitched a James Bond movie by Quentin Tarantino when both stars were drunk.
      Pierce last played 007 in 2002’s “Die Another Day” and the “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood” filmmaker told the Brit he had a great idea for the next film in the series, which he hoped to direct.
      “He wanted to meet me, so I went up to Hollywood one day from the beach, and I met him at the Four Seasons (hotel),” Pierce told U.K. Esquire in a live video interview that accompanied an online viewing party for his 1995 Bond film “GoldenEye” on Sunday, April 19.
      “I got there at 7pm; I like to be punctual,” Brosnan said. “7.15 came around. No Quentin. He was upstairs doing press. Someone sent over a martini, so I had a martini, and I waited till 7.30, and I thought, ‘Where the heck is he?’ Word came down, apologies, so I thought, ‘OK, I’ll have another martini’.”
      By the time Tarantino appeared for the meeting, Brosnan admitted he was “fairly smokered (drunk)” and shared that Tarantino quickly caught up with some cocktails.
      “He was pounding the table, saying, ‘You’re the best James Bond, I wanna do James Bond’,” Brosnan recalled, “and it was very close quarters in the restaurant and I thought, ‘Please calm down’, but we don’t tell Quentin Tarantino to calm down.”
      Pierce didn’t reveal any details of the pitch, although he did mention it to his Bond bosses, who weren’t keen on the idea. But the actor still wonders how the potential project might have turned out.
      “That would be a good one to watch,” he laughed.

      Venice Film Festival 2020 to Proceed as Planned Despite Coronavirus Uncertainty

      by

      Venice Biennale president Roberto Cicutto believes that Italian government officials would permit them to open ‘six or seven’ movie theater for specially held festival screenings in September.
      Apr 21, 2020
      AceShowbiz – The Venice Film Festival will go ahead as planned in September, with organisers promising to defy the threat of the coronavirus pandemic.
      Major film, music, television, and sports events have all been either cancelled or postponed this year, due to the spread of the Covid-19 virus, with the Cannes Film Festival now postponed until an unspecified date.
      However, although Italy has been one of the hardest hit countries by the virus, Roberto Cicutto, president of the Venice Biennale, the organisation that runs the Venetian festival, told Italian news agency ANSA on Monday, April 20 that it would not be postponed or cancelled.
      Cicutto also denied plans mooted by Cannes chief Thierry Fremaux to collaborate on a joint event after the indefinite postponement of the French cinema extravaganza.
      “With Cannes everything is possible,” Ciucutto said. “But I find it disconcerting that Thierry Fremaux keeps saying he is continuing to examine the situation and does not say what he wants to do. We are going forward with our program…there is no dialogue.”
      The Venice chief said he believed Italian government officials would permit them to open “six or seven” movie theatres for specially held festival screenings.

      Italy has been in lockdown since early March, with all cinemas and non-essential businesses closed as more than 23,000 have died from the disease, according to figures from America’s Johns Hopkins Institute. The crisis has, however, resulted in the postponement of Venice’s theatre and dance festivals.

      Hoping to see Lucian Msamati ‘rocking the 007 tux,’ the ‘Peaky Blinders’ actor additionally suggests that his co-star could also be a villain in the follow-up to ‘No Time to Die’.
      Apr 20, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Joe Cole wants his “Gangs of London” co-star Lucian Msamati to appear in a new James Bond movie.
      The “Peaky Blinders” star has been tipped as a potential replacement for Daniel Craig in the iconic spy franchise, alongside the likes of Tom Hardy and James Norton, but he thinks Lucian is a far better bet.
      Speaking to British music site NME, Cole said: “I think it would be Lucian Msamati… All day long. I’d love to see Lucian rocking the 007 tux.”
      Co-star Sope Dirisu added: “We’ve already seen him in a tux. Watch the series and you’ll see Lucian in a tux with a pistol and a silencer.”
      “He could play a bad guy, probably,” Cole replied. “Lucian for the villain in the next Bond movie.”

      The new James Bond movie, “No Time to Die”, has been pushed back to November from its initial April release date, due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

      Broadway on Demand Service to Be Launched With Benefit Concert

      by

      To be made available in May, the streaming service will offer self-isolated fans a library of live-captured shows and exclusive performances as well as access to masterclasses.
      Apr 18, 2020
      AceShowbiz – New York theatre chiefs are to launch a Broadway on Demand streaming service allowing self-isolated fans to watch shows from home.
      The service will offer a library of educational and interactive resources as well as live-captured Broadway shows, exclusive performances and access to masterclasses, and will be launched with a 30 Days of Opening Nights benefit concert.
      The benefit will be livestreamed from Hollywood’s Bourbon Room, observing social distancing guidelines, and will raise funds for entertainers affected by the closure of Broadway theatres, and many others across the U.S., due to the coronavirus pandemic.
      Broadway on Demand’s president-CEO Sean Cercone says in a statement to Broadway World: “Broadway is a giant global brand, and its impact extends far beyond a few blocks in midtown Manhattan.”
      “Even before our current crisis, we’ve long dreamt of building a platform that would truly fulfil Broadway’s long-held promise of being the ‘longest street in the world.’ This platform is our way of breaking down geographical and economic barriers so that the entire world can partake in all the wonders that Broadway has to offer.”
