Miller revealed to Frosty that they are deep in to the writing of the script of Deadpool 2 with Fox giving them the time they need to do so. Miller mentioned the time frame for the movie to shoot saying, Amazon has now changed up their streaming/Prime membership in order to compete directly with Netflix with the Wrap reporting they will be launching a stand-alone subscription service just for its streaming video arm for $8.99 a month. Amazon Prime was previously charging a $99-a-year membership that included free and second-day shipping of physical goods. But now that video services have expanded in to original programming, Amazon has made the long overdue move to compete directly with Netflix and other services. Entertainment Weekly has given us an exclusive first look at Elizabeth Banks’ Rita Repulsa villain from the rebooted Power Rangers movie. The actress stars as the fan favorite character in the new movie that features five super teens better known as the Blue, Yellow, Black, Pink and Red Rangers, fighting to take down Repulsa, the evil humanoid alien witch trying to conquer earth. BUY OR SELL According to a report from The Wrap, Star Wars: The Force Awakens star Daisy Ridley will re-team with her director J.J. Abrams on Kolma, a fantasy thriller that Diary of a Teenage Girl director Marielle Heller will helm. JJ Abrams will produce this time through his Bad Robot production company for Paramount Studios. Based on the 2003 Israeli movie titled All I’ve Got, the story is described as a cross between The Notebook and Albert Brooks’ Defending Your Life. With just over two weeks to go until Marvel’s Captain America: Civil War drops in theatres, box office estimates are pointing towards a huge debut in theatres that is unsurprisingly, record breaking. Early predictions have the Joe and Anthony Russo-directed film set to bring in $175 million in North American theaters with other sources pointing to even a possible $200 million, a prediction which puts the film in the top five openings of all-time. As 20th Century Fox looks to the May 27th date of Bryan Singer’s X-Men: Apocalypse, the marketing department is now taking over, releasing a set of new “historical” promos that tease the appearances of Apocalypse throughout the years; suggesting that the world’s first mutant has been the cause of many famous disasters from our history.
