The Marvel Cinematic Universe continues to expand with Captain America: The Winter Soldier and Guardians of the Galaxy in 2014, but the big kahuna on everyone's mind is The Avengers: Age of Ultron in 2015.

Jackson (Director Nick Fury) and Cobie Smulders (Agent Maria Hill). Read More »

In a recent interview with Death Row Records' chief engineer Rick Clifford, we learned that notorious rapper and actor Tupac Shakur almost landed a role in the 2001 film Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace.

Jackson went on to reprise his role in all of the prequel trilogy films. Read More »
Chris Evans will play Steve Rogers for the third time (well, technically fourth if you count the brief cameo in Thor: The Dark World) in Captain America: The Winter Soldier.
