Isnt this the char who was Wanda’s love interest in the comics?

Isn't that the place from Iron Man 3 where Happy almost dies?
SorryRoof16532025-10-10 18:41
Looks like it
Rman8232025-10-10 18:42
I mean the Chinese Theater is an LA landmark. It was also featured in the Guardians Holiday Special
Antrikshy2025-10-10 20:51
They repaired it after the explosion!
Rman8232025-10-10 20:52
I mean it’s been like 14 years in-universe depending on when the show takes place
Worthyness2025-10-10 22:54
Tony also probably helped clean + repair afterwards

Herbizarre172025-10-10 18:44
It’s a real place in California called the Chinese Theater
thecricketnerd2025-10-10 19:20
An essential piece of the Hollywood Facts theme song, too
santogringo2025-10-10 21:15
Nice
Abides19482025-10-10 23:37
If only we could have a Liverpudlian actor character to describe menacingly how it's not chinese and not a theatre.
Heisenburgo2025-10-10 19:13
And it's the guy from Iron Man 3 too

That is a wild way to refer to the Chinese Theater.

For a second I thought the people in the background were kneeling down to imitate the Extremis solider that blew up or even the scorch marks left behind by the victims lmao but it seems [there's lots of celebrities hands and footprints on the ground there.](https://ca-times.brightspotcdn.com/dims4/default/a4bc8c3/2147483647/strip/true/crop/1256x837+396+0/resize/1440x960!/quality/75/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcalifornia-times-brightspot.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fa1%2Ff9%2Fc28a6646fd1b05cc88927c036e5b%2Fla-et-hc-chinese-theater-anniversary-images-20-038)

TBF, more Ben Kingsley is never a bad thing.
kennyofthegulch2025-10-11 00:15
I love Ben Kingsley so much. He's one of the last of a dying breed of British "working actors," guys who will literally do any role for a paycheck and will give every role 110%, no matter how ridiculous. Him, Jeremy Irons, Michael Caine & Anthony Hopkins are the best scenery-chewers you'll find anywhere.
Equivalent-Exam26412025-10-11 00:32
They appreciate the uniqueness of roles that other actors would think were beneath them. They're not afraid to do something out of their comfort zone.
kennyofthegulch2025-10-11 00:37
That's because they have no comfort zone other than "My bills are paid."
"I haven't seen the film. I've heard it's quite bad. But I've seen the house it paid for, and it's quite nice."
-- Michael Caine on *Jaws: The Revenge*
Spicy_Weissy2025-10-11 00:50
You mentioned Jeremy Irons. He cites the castle he bought as his reason for being in that DnD movie.
kennyofthegulch2025-10-11 00:53
That dude *deserves* a castle for being one of only two people in that movie who actually understood the assignment (the other being Richard O'Brien).
Spicy_Weissy2025-10-11 00:49
And, again, TBF, Kingsley doesn't have to prove anything to anybody at this point in his career.
patkgreen2025-10-11 03:12
Gary Oldman too
tenehemia2025-10-11 06:48
Add Geoffrey Rush to the list. His turn as Casanova Frankenstein in Mystery Men is my favorite "serious actor plays someone utterly ridiculous" role of all time. Oscar winning dramatic actor sharpening his coke nail and then hissing as he charges the hero is amazing.
Spicy_Weissy2025-10-11 17:22
He's an Aussie, but he absolutely carries those Pirates movies

Shang Chi director produced this show. It’s set in Cali, so Shang Chi could show up as a cameo
adsfew2025-10-11 10:17
I presume this is set in Hollywood, which is a rather different part of California
elpajaroquemamais2025-10-11 15:19
I mean wonder man means we could get anyone
knucklehead_892025-10-12 15:39
Also, that’s him in from of the Chinese Theater. Which was where one of the people exploded in Iron Man 3. Seems like there could be more ties to iron man 3. Maybe wonder man’s powers are extremis based?
nicolofoshizzle2025-10-10 18:32
TCL Chinese Theatre! Don't know if it's still there, but last time I went they had the Maguire Spider-Man suit on display in the lobby.
DarkDonut752025-10-11 09:50
That feels like a lifetime ago
nicolofoshizzle2025-10-13 19:10
Yeah it does - I saw Oppenheimer there, so 2023
MrNachoReturns4202025-10-10 18:44
Finally! I feel like this show has been in development for so long
garbagepost_2025-10-11 12:56
Apparently this is one of the projects that has been finished for a while and they’ve just been sitting on it. They did the same with Iron Heart and Marvel Zombies afaik
nazia9872025-10-10 18:57
Between this, Marvel Zombies, and Ironheart, which project has had the longest gap between end of production and release date?
AgentP202025-10-10 18:58
Wonder man's production ended last year so not this one.
nazia9872025-10-10 19:01
I feel like it was announced so long ago. Guess it wasn't as bad as the other 2.
AgentP202025-10-10 19:18
You weren't wrong about its announcement. It was announced mid 2022 with production being stopped next year due to the strikes.
Redditeer282025-10-10 19:04
Why is Trevor not in jail for being a terrorist and breaking out of prison?
lontrinium2025-10-10 19:34
Maybe millions of prisoners had their sentences commuted during the snap?
I guess we'll never know because it wouldn't be interesting to address it right Marvel..?
Redditeer282025-10-10 19:35
>Maybe millions of prisoners had their sentences commuted during the snap?
Maybe, but an international terrorist propagandist who broke out of jail and spent years working for a second terrorist organization isn't exactly one of those inmates who should have their sentences cut.
lontrinium2025-10-10 20:25
Maybe the DA that was assigned to prosecute him got snapped so it wasn't really a priority during the global emergency?
Redditeer282025-10-10 20:26
Wasn't he already prosecuted? He was in jail years before the snap.
Worthyness2025-10-10 22:58
Dude was in prison then extradited by the Mandarin, held captive for who knows how long, and then released after. If he had a good lawyer, he could argue that he was taken in as a slave and didn't intentionally skip prison and maybe the judge at the time would be lenient since he was taken advantage of again. Maybe he's on parole or something
ExplorationGeo2025-10-11 00:16
I dunno that he was "working for" the Ten Rings, and he didn't really have a say in leaving jail. He was kidnapped at gunpoint.
Redditeer282025-10-11 00:27
How is that any different from what he was arrested for in Iron Man 3?
ExplorationGeo2025-10-11 00:54
He was a willing participant in IM3. The booze, ladies, drugs, having the best cable package for Premier League football, he was definitely there by choice. Compare that to the Ten Rings where he was under threat of death the whole time and sequestered away in the basement.
DuckyHornet2025-10-11 00:58
He was an eager participant in IM3, he got nose candy and lovely birds in compensation for the role of a lifetime
not-my-other-alt2025-10-11 09:11
If he was sentenced to life in prison, he may have successfully argued that his sentence ended when he died in the snap.
Like [This guy](https://www.ndtv.com/feature/a-us-prisoner-briefly-died-later-argued-hes-served-his-life-sentence-5756869) tried to do (it was rejected by the judges, but maybe Slattery can afford better lawyers)

"You should be in federal prison, but our president is a Hulk now, so anything goes, I guess."

Hydra’s best guy was also a sitting congressman for a hot minute.
DityDan04012025-10-10 19:28
Fully believe this will be the next sleeper hit of the MCU. It’s got a unique vision, great cast, and Destin Daniel Cretton. He will deliver.
ExplorationGeo2025-10-10 22:10
Oh hell yeah I didn't know DDC was on this.

COGspartaN72025-10-10 22:01
West Coast Avenger, Movie Actor, and basically is like Ionic Energy powered... I dunno I was a little kid when he was a deal... Not a big deal but a deal nonetheless
voidsong2025-10-11 06:00
Vapid actor turned energy-infused super strength guy. Basically Johnny Cage from Mortal Kombat, but stronger. One of the main Avengers for a good stretch.
They recently upped his strength by quite a lot, apparently trying to make him superman level, with the "twist" that now he feels too strong and has become a pacifist.
atomcrafter2025-10-11 14:15
Tech CEO loses his family's company because he can't keep up with Stark. Zemo gives him powers and sends him to infiltrate the Avengers for revenge against Iron Man. He changes his mind. He later becomes a Hollywood stuntman because he's invulnerable.

DustFunk2025-10-10 22:20
I think its hilarious they keep finding ways to use Ben Kingsley. Cheers to him for being up for it every time. Bold move to make him the comedic relief of every single project he shows up in the MCU. I'm still salty about Iron Man 3 though....The Mandarin was actually Iron Man's nemesis in the comics, and is magic-based so it would have been super cool to have a magic vs. tech war. Instead we got a bastardized Extremis plot, and a bastardized Mandarin plot combined.

I like that they keep bringing back Ben Kingsley, I bet he’s the avengers secret weapon in doomsday lol
Master-Mage872025-10-11 04:13
How the hell didn't Marvel make Shang Chi 2, Moon Knight season 2, Ms Marvel Season 2, Werewolf By Knight 2 before this?!?

If Kingo isn’t in this he’s never coming back
Cheatercheaterbitch2025-10-11 09:33
Marvels really been dropping the ball with their last few projects.
Seriously, why should I watch wonder man? Who the fuck is this guy
MajesticTesticles2025-10-11 10:54
What the f*ck is a Wonder Man
ddanuu2025-10-11 12:10
So we get this stuff before we get Shang Chi 2, MoonKnight 2, Hawkeye 2, Doctor Strange 3? Why?
mariusioannesp2025-10-11 15:30
I’m glad to see them start promoting Wonder Man.
Al-152025-10-11 17:42
The last two projects in the MCU didn't really grab my attention. But this one has something that does, I don't know what it is exactly.
