'BLACK PANTHER' 

FIRST PHOTOS FROM WAKANDA

The panther roars next February!

I must admit the first trailer released earlier this summer looks hilarious to me and utterly kitschy and tacky, but I hear lots of people liked it! 'Entertainment Weekly' has released today, in their Comic Con issue, some new photos from Marvel's  BLACK PANTHER showing most of the cast in full costume while playing the members of the fantastical African nation where Chadwick Boseman’s T’Challa rules over a secretive and futuristic society! The movie is out next February!

 IN THE HEART OF WAKANDA

The fighting in the film is based on Brazilian capoeira

In Marvel lore, T’Challa’s homeland is the site of massive natural deposits of Vibranium, the near-mystical metal that comprises Captain America’s shield, is woven into his BLACK PANTHER, and has allowed the people of Wakanda to make technological leaps nearly a century ahead of the rest of the world. But as T’Challa learns upon ascending the throne, the minute others know you have something valuable, someone

will try to take it from you. In self-defence, Wakanda has closed itself off from the other nations of Earth, maintaining a false front that it’s a mere third-world nowhere – full of mines, farms, and jungle creatures.

The truth is, its mines produce the rarest, most precious metal on earth, its fields grows the Heart Shaped Herb, a Vibranium enriched plant

that grants its leaders superhuman strength, and its jungle creatures provide inspiration for one of the sleekest superheroes to ever leap from the page to the screen.

GAEL GARCIA BERNAL

WILL BE FUTURISTIC ZORRO!

In these seven or so years that Dezzy has been spying for you, methinks we've mentioned ZORRO projects at least a dozen of times and they never really came to fruition, but now it has been revealed that Jonas Cuaron, who is directing a ZORRO movie titled Z (originally known as ZORRO REBORN), has offered the lead role to Gael Garcia Bernal! Although details on the script are very sparse right now, it has been rumoured before that it will be a futuristic take on the famous legend  set in the near future. Bernal has already worked with director Jonas Cuaron on DESIERTO drama which is out in cinemas later this year.
