Agreed only reason I bought that movie.

I don't think think Brosnan will be coming back but I wouldn't mind at all him getting a parachute out of the rubble of Black Adam.

*edit: Gunn doesn't necessarily dispute the rumor:

Claes Bang as Brainiac... now that wouldn't be bad at all.

Interesting casting, just two days ago, my wife went to see one of his readings. I‘m not a fan of German cinema at all but Eidinger‘s got an excellent reputation for playing psychopaths.

*Andrew NDB* · 12-20-2025, 07:56 PM

A sound choice.

**Barkworm** · 12-20-2025, 11:03 PM

You know him? I wasn‘t aware that he had a career outside of Germany.

He was pretty good in High Life, which is a pretty underrated movie. I'm just glad we're not getting someone with a propensity for wackiness. The casting kind of informs how the character of Brainiac is being approached.

Wonder Woman will show up in Man of Tomorrow, a non-Superman 2? Jeeze... just like WB forced Snyder to do in BvS, a non-Man of Steel 2?

So the Blue Beetle movie is now canon? Or will this be a soft-reboot intro to the character?

I'm sure it'll be at least as much canon as the last Suicide Squad movie. It's not like the Blue Beetle movie really did any damage to the greater universe or anything beyond calling Batman a fascist.

*CyberCubed* · 07-14-2026, 09:00 PM

All I remember from that movie is around the climax, where one of his spanish friends was free from being captured by Susan Sarandon (who was the racist white woman in the movie), and she called him by the wrong name all movie I believe.

Then the spanish guy gets free and "declares" his full name, and of course hispanics sometimes have 4 names (!?), so he says his first name, his middle name, his second middle name, and his last name like it was suppose to mean something.

Why do some hispanics have 4 names anyway? Do you really need two middle names or something? Man hispanics are really something.

First name, middle name, your last name and your mother's maiden name. Though it's not used too often, but that is where the fourth name comes from. I think it's mostly used for documentation/paperwork or when you piss off your SO bad enough they blurt out your full name.

Ah, so that's what it is. I always found it weird some hispanics have 4 names, I never understood why.

Yeah, you know you're in trouble when your parents (when you're a kid) or your SO (when you're older) calls you by all four names.

What makes some Hispanic named ridiculously long is that sometimes the last name is multiple words like De La Costa or De La Alta Gracia and whatnot, so now you have what is literally four names but looks like ten words.

A buddy of mine was in the Marine Corps and he was in boot camp with a guy named Rodriguez-Rodriguez. The drill instructor hated him lol

Man Hispanics are so weird and funny.

The clues were even there. Aaron Pierre joins the cast as John Stewart... but not Kyle Chandler as Hal Jordan?
