THE FANTASTIC FOUR: FIRST STEPS Post-Credits Scene Details Leak as Recent Test Screening — GeekTyrant
Marvel's The Fantastic Four: First Steps held a surprise test screening in Los Angeles recently and now, one of its post-credits scenes has reportedly leaked online. It's interesting that Marvel actually held an early test screening like this. Some fans believe Marvel might be worried about how this film will land—especially after Thunderbolts* didn't exactly set the box office on fire, despite receiving some of the best reviews. Others believe it's Kevin Feige trying to recalibrate the MCU and get a read on what fans actually want. But regardless of the studio's motive, one thing's certain, if you hold a test screening on a big film like this, leaks were bound to happen. What we didn't expect was this kind of leak, especially so far ahead of the film's July 25 release. According to industry scooper @MyTimeToShineH, the post-credits scene in question involves Sue Storm reading to her and Reed's son, Franklin. She briefly leaves the room, and when she returns, Doctor Doom is sitting beside Franklin, mask in hand. It's explained that his face is never shown but both the costume and mask are described as 'very comic accurate.' Placing Doom in direct proximity to Franklin? That could mean big things. In the comics, Franklin Richards isn't just any kid, he's a reality-warping powerhouse. So if Doom's already targeting him, it adds serious weight to the theory that the Fantastic Four didn't just survive the collapse of their universe, they were pushed into action because of Franklin. Doom kicking off the events that lead Marvel's First Family to Earth-616 would be a smart way to tie this origin story directly into the bigger picture, namely Avengers: Doomsday . The scooper also shared a tidbit about Chris Evans, who fans have speculated might appear in the movie as either Johnny Storm or a variant Steve Rogers: 'I know for a fact he filmed something so it was either cut or will be in the final version of the film." So it sounds like the door isn't entirely closed on a surprise Evans cameo, just maybe not in this version of the cut. And to be clear, this is only one of the post-credits scenes. Marvel has a history of making eleventh-hour changes, so even if this moment was in the screening, it might not survive the final edit. Stay tuned, and maybe keep your expectations flexible. We're in the multiverse here.

Defence casts doubts over police investigation into Erin Patterson's deadly mushroom lunch
Defence lawyers for accused killer Erin Patterson have cast doubt over the police investigation into the deadly mushroom lunch. Ms Patterson, 50, has been charged with murder and attempted murder after three relatives died and one fell seriously ill after eating a beef Wellington containing poisonous death cap mushrooms in July 2023. The trial of Erin Patterson, who stands accused of using a poisoned meal to murder three relatives, continues. Follow the updates in our live blog. To stay up to date with this story, subscribe to ABC News. Ms Patterson has pleaded not guilty and argues what happened was a tragic accident. On Thursday, Detective Leading Senior Constable Stephen Eppingstall returned to the stand to continue his cross-examination by defence lawyer Colin Mandy SC. During his cross-examination, Mr Mandy suggested to the detective that police may not have seized several electronic devices from Ms Patterson's home during a search they conducted in August 2023. The jury were shown several photographs taken during the August 5 police search of Ms Patterson's home, one of which showed a black object sitting on a windowsill. Mr Mandy suggested to Leading Senior Constable Eppingstall that the black object was a Nokia phone that Ms Patterson told police she owned as a spare in case hers broke, which has never been recovered. "I don't think that's consistent with a phone," Leading Senior Constable Eppingstall responded. Another photograph showed a plastic storage basket with an object in it which LSC Eppingstall agreed looked to be a phone box. A third photo of the same room showed white shelving with a desk in the middle of the room and items in small plastic baskets. On the shelves were black objects, which Mr Mandy suggested were laptops. "If those are laptops, this is the first time I'm learning of these items," Leading Senior Constable Eppingstall said. Leading Senior Constable Eppingstall told the court Ms Patterson was allowed to retain her phone during the police search to make arrangements for her children and to make a phone call to a lawyer, which she did in private. The defence also cast doubt over CCTV footage from a Subway restaurant that was previously shown to the jury. Earlier, the prosecution argued the vision showed Ms Patterson dropping her son off to buy a meal before returning to pick him up. Mr Mandy said it was not Ms Patterson in the footage and put to Leading Senior Constable Eppingstall that police only came to that conclusion because the vehicle was consistent with the accused's car and a teenager had gotten out of the car — a statement he agreed with. The jury was then shown a still from inside the Subway of a teenager that Mr Mandy suggested was not Ms Patterson's son, but Leading Senior Constable Eppingstall disagreed. "I believe that to be [Ms Patterson's son] but that's a matter for the jury," he said. Earlier, Mr Mandy took the jury back to Ms Patterson's bank statements obtained by police during their investigation. The statements were from July 1 to August 4, 2023. "I can't explain why we didn't go back further," Leading Senior Constable Eppingstall said when asked about the records by Mr Mandy. A few transactions were highlighted to the jury that suggest some flaws in both of Erin's children's recollection of events during their interview with police. In that interview, her son had said they only made one stop during a trip to Tyabb the day after the deadly lunch, but transactions highlighted by the defence show there was a second stop at a BP station. When asked about phone towers, Leading Senior Constable Eppingstall said he was "not interested" in exploring "line of sight" at that stage of the investigation, despite one of the experts in the investigation suggested it. "Line of site doesn't guarantee connection," he told the court. "We weren't sure if that had been tested or not in court and we didn't think it was necessary on this occasion to try and assess that." The trial continues.

Aussie woman told cops she ‘loved' lunch guests she is accused of killing
Erin Patterson has pleaded not guilty to all charges in a trial that has captivated Australia. (EPA Images pic) SYDNEY : An Australian woman told police she 'loved' members of her husband's family she was later accused of killing with poison mushrooms, a court heard today. Erin Patterson, 50, is charged with murdering the parents and aunt of her estranged husband in 2023 by serving them a beef Wellington laced with lethal 'death cap' mushrooms. She is also accused of attempting to murder her husband's uncle, who survived the meal after a long stay in hospital. Patterson has pleaded not guilty to all charges in a trial that has captivated the country. Jurors today hear an interview police recorded with Patterson in the days following the lunch. In the 21-minute video, a police officer asked Patterson to describe her relationship with the guests. Patterson said she 'loved' her parents-in-law. 'I've got no other family. They've always been good to me and I want to maintain those relationships,' she said. 'They are the only family I've got and they are the only grandparents that my children have and I want them to stay in my kids' lives and that is really important to me.' Patterson was estranged from her husband Simon, who turned down an invitation to the July 2023 lunch. His parents, Don and Gail, died days after eating the beef-and-pastry dish. Simon's aunt Heather Wilkinson also died, while her husband Ian fell seriously ill but later recovered. 'Very helpful' Patterson told police that she had never 'been in a situation like this before'. 'I have been very, very helpful with the health department through the week because I wanted to help that side,' she said in the video. 'I do want to know what happened. So I have given them as much information as they have asked for.' This included information about the meal, where police could find leftovers and where she had bought the ingredients. In the video, police also outlined items they seized at Patterson's home during their search. This included several mobile phones, computers, a cookbook that contained the beef Wellington recipe and a fruit platter one of the lunch guests brought. The video was recorded several months before Patterson was arrested and charged with murder. The prosecution alleges Patterson deliberately poisoned her guests and took care that she did not consume the deadly mushrooms herself. Her defence says it was 'a terrible accident' and that Patterson ate the same meal as the others but did not fall as sick. The trial is expected to last another week.
