Don’t expect to get Foggy Nelson back on Daredevil: Born Again. Guillermo del Toro has doubts he’ll ever get round to doing At the Mountains of Madness. Plus, could a Xena movie be on the horizon? Spoilers now!
At the Mountains of Madness
During a recent interview with Empire, Guillermo del Toro doubted he’d ever get around to directing his long-planned film adaptation of H.P. Lovecraft’s At the Mountains of Madness, adding he may no longer “want to” in light of his desire to “do something very different” after Frankenstein.
The one that’s on the bucket list that I think is gonna stay there is [At the Mountains of Madness]. It’s too big, too crazy, too R-rated, I guess. And to be completely candid, I don’t know that I want to do it after this.
The MCU/House of M
During a recent panel at LA Comic Con (via CBR), Elizabeth Olsen admitted her disappointment over WandaVision ultimately having no bearing on her character or the future events of the MCU.
When I went into WandaVision…I mean, I had an idea that I was going to be in Doctor Strange. I had an idea of that, but I thought I was in an ensemble cast, and I thought I was one of the good guys. And then three weeks before I was sent to London, they said, ‘You’re our lead villain.’ And I had no clue, and I had finished filming WandaVision, and I was like, ‘Wow, it would have been helpful to have known that just so I could have pulled a thread through a bit.’ I think the story told itself—and I—was able to kind of massage things in Doctor Strange to hopefully tell a different story for her.
However, Olsen also stated she’s hopeful to return from the dead for an adaptation of House of M in a far-flung “phase” of the MCU.
I mean, I just think that House of M is just the coolest. I don’t how to make it make sense…Maybe there’s some fan pitches or theories out there. But I just think it could be so fun to deal with X-Men and Avengers, and ‘No more mutants.’
