Evan Peters Is Returning As Quicksilver In ‘X-Men: Dark Phoenix’ By Hoai-Tran Bui/June 30, 2017 6:30 am EST The scene-stealing speedster is here to stay in the revamped X-Men series. Quicksilver, played with a charming buoyancy by Evan Peters, is confirmed to be joining the cast of X-Men: Dark Phoenix. Although Quicksilver didn’t play a role in the original comic book story line of Dark Phoenix, Peters’ two appearances as the mutant speedster in X-Men: Days of Future Past and X-Men: Apocalypse proved to be so popular (and sadly, one of the saving graces of Apocalypse) that he will be written into the plot for the film....

John Boyega Reacts To ‘Star Wars: The Last Jedi’ Spoiler On Live Television By Ben Pearson/Dec. 15, 2017 2:30 pm EST There’s an unspoken rule when TV personalities interview movie stars on live television: it’s bad form for a TV host to drop a spoiler into the middle of a conversation.

Michael Pena Returns For ‘Ant-Man And The Wasp’ By Ethan Anderton/Aug. 22, 2016 6:00 am EST Last summer, Marvel Studios brought Ant-Man to the big screen, and the tiny superhero turned out to be a big hit, changing the pace by being a smaller, more isolated comic book flick.
