Marvel/Evil Dead tidbits.


More stuff that accumulated, and I didn't wanna doll up as separate posts.


Issa Rae is cast as Jessica Drew Spider-Woman.
...kinda???

She's cast as animated Jessica Drew for "Into The Spider-Verse 2".
BUT, Sony wants to blend the Spidey-verse all together, and into MCU, and they want to do a live-action Jessica Drew movie so...is Issa gonna crossover to-from the Venom-verse, and she's playing both versions?
Time will tell.



John Bernthal Punisher rumored to be in Moon Knight season 2.
(Why season 2 ???)



Aaron Taylor-Johnson ("Kick-Ass") is Kraven The Hunter for the Venom-verse standalone.



Evil Dead Rise is going straight to HBOMAX.
(Better be a fuggin' blu-ray after)
And we're getting some plot details...

The next chapter in the saga builds off the original trilogy, rather than the 2013 reboot, and moves the action out of the woods and into the city. The twisted tale centers on two estranged sisters, portrayed by Alyssa Sutherland and Lily Sullivan, whose reunion is cut short by the rise of flesh-possessing demons, thrusting them into a primal battle for survival as they face the most nightmarish version of family imaginable.

Filmmaker Lee Cronin (“The Hole in the Ground”) was hand-picked by Raimi and Campbell to write and direct “Evil Dead Rise.”

“I’m thrilled to bring ‘Evil Dead’ back to its original home at New Line 40 years after the release of the first film,” Raimi said in a statement. “The company’s history as pioneers of horror speaks for itself. I’m equally excited to be working with Lee Cronin, whose gifts as a storyteller make him the ideal filmmaker to continue the enduring legacy of the franchise.”



So, we're getting TWO female Ash-es.

And, that's it for now.
