Fantastic Four 2 Update Reveals Likely Director for MCU Sequel
A new report from Jeff Sneider of The InSneider suggests that Disney has likely already found the director for The Fantastic Four 2, and has high hopes for the sequel. Who is potentially directing The Fantastic Four 2? According to Sneider, Matt Shakman — the director of the first film and the MCU miniseries WandaVision — is 'likely' to return to direct a sequel. As for the film's box office, Sneider mentions that, although the film hasn't been performed incredibly, Marvel execs believe the sequel will perform better after The Fantastic Four are shown off more in the next two Avengers movies, Avengers: Doomsday and Avenges: Secret Wars. Sneider's report comes after Disney CEO Bob Iger also praised The Fantastic Four: First Steps, saying the movie 'successfully launched' an important franchise into the MCU, even if it didn't make the same amount of money a project like Avengers might. In its second weekend, The Fantastic Four: First Steps took a 66% drop, a surprisingly high mark for a film that is praised by both critics and audiences. Following its latest drop, it's likely First Steps will come in under Superman, the DCU film that launched a week prior. 'Set against the vibrant backdrop of a 1960s-inspired, retro-futuristic world, Marvel Studios' The Fantastic Four: First Steps introduces Marvel's First Family—Reed Richards/Mister Fantastic, Sue Storm/Invisible Woman, Johnny Storm/Human Torch and Ben Grimm/The Thing as they face their most daunting challenge yet,' the official synopsis for the movie reads. Kevin Feige serves as a producer on the project, while executive producers include Louis D'Esposito, Grant Curtis, and Tim Lewis. Mitch Bell is a co-producer, while the music comes from Michael Giacchino. The Fantastic Four: First Steps will be released in United States theaters on July 25, 2025. It has been confirmed that Pascal, Kirby, Quinn, and Moss-Bachrach will all return for Avengers: Doomsday, which arrives in December 2026. The Fantastic Four: First Steps is available in theaters now. Solve the daily Crossword

Jesse Eisenberg's Reason for Passing on The Social Network 2 Revealed
Jesse Eisenberg won't be returning to play Mark Zuckerberg in the upcoming The Social Network 2, and according to a new report, we have some information as to why. Why did Jesse Eisenberg pass on The Social Network 2? According to a new report from Jeff Sneider of The InSneider, Eisenberg didn't pass on the film for any monetary or artistic reason, but instead due to David Fincher not being involved in the project. Fincher directed the original The Social Network, and won't be involved in the sequel. Sneider's report also notes that Eisenberg may not have wanted his career to be 'defined' by playing Zuckerberg. Although the role took Eisenberg to superstardom, he has since appeared in a number of high-profile roles. Currently, little is known about The Social Network 2. The movie is believed to 'focus on how the company's own reporting pointed to the negative effects the company's social media was having on teens and kids, how it knew misinformation was proliferating and causing violence, and how it contributed to the coup attempt of Jan. 6, 2021.' Although casting is not confirmed as of right now, a number of stars are reported to be involved in the project. These include Succession's Jeremy Strong, who is in talks to lead the film as Zuckerberg, as well as Jeremy Allen White and Mikey Madison, who are both also said to be top choices to star in the film.
