April Fool’s Day is a minefield for anyone wanting to keep up with the latest entertainment news, as the internet becomes full of factually dubious stories every April 1. So if you’ve just heard that, say, Henry Cavill has been cast as the MCU’s Captain Britain or that Robert Downey Jr. is coming back for Iron Man 4, you might want to check your sources. We can promise you, though, that the following latest updates from the Marvel multiverse are no prank, although one new hiring definitely seems like a joke at James Cameron’s expense…
Avatar: The Way of Water getting hate now it’s on streaming doesn’t bode well for Fantastic Four pinching a key player
James Cameron might love nothing more than tearing the MCU a near one, but in a shock move, one of his trusted collaborators is hopping over to the other side. Screenwriter Josh Friedman is jumping aboard Matt Shakman’s Fantastic Four to rewrite the script, swiftly following his work on Avatar: The Way of Water. Unfortunately, though hiring someone who worked on the third biggest movie of all time should be a massive win, public opinion seems to have turned against the Avatar sequel in the wake of its VOD debut and more cynical sorts are questioning if Marvel has made the right choice here, arguing that the story of The Way of Water wasn’t its strong point. Welcome to the MCU, Mr. Friedman. Yes, it’s always like this.
