Superhero Bits: Gamora In Guardians 3, Ben Affleck Daredevil Rumors & More

John Romita Jr. is the son of John Romita Sr., who was one of the greatest comic book artists the world has ever known. As the saying goes, like father like son. And that's good news for "Spider-Man" fans as Marvel has revealed (see above tweet) that Romita is returning to the book a little later this year. This might be enough to get certain fans to jump back on board even if they've fallen off with the title in recent years. Be on the lookout.

"Fortnite" is one of the biggest games on the planet and it is no stranger to big crossover events with pop culture. Many Marvel characters and DC characters have come to the game over the years. Now, as revealed an a recent episode of the "XboxEra Podcast," it seems the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" will be making their way to the game in the future thanks to a new deal between Paramount and Epic Games.

Co-host Nick Baker states in the episode that "Paramount has signed a deal with Epic to bring properties to 'Fortnite.'" And he goes on to say that the heroes in a half-shell are expected to be among those properties coming to the game. So be on the lookout for official announcements on that front.

What's the time? It's rumor time! This is one that we have to take with a might big grain of salt, but it also kind of makes sense given that Marvel Studios is doubling down on the whole multiverse thing in a big bad way.

For obvious reasons, I was asked to keep this a secret but Marvel did indeed reach out to Affleck for a cameo as Daredevil. They sent out preliminary contracts to his team but i'm not sure if anything came of it. pic.twitter.com/fK9itKRNsm

Keep in mind I heard this back in October/November so anything could've happened since then. I haven't heard any updates though.

As we can see there, the Big Screen Leaks Twitter account claims that none other than Ben Affleck was approached to reprise his role as Daredevil for a cameo appearance, and the account went on to confirm that this would be for "Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness." Now, this seems like something that Marvel might ask for, but would Affleck do it? Probably not. The actor/director has made it quite clear he's done with Batman and seems to be done with the superhero thing altogether. So don't count on this happening, but it's interesting to ponder.

"Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3" is currently in production and, as is often the case with big MCU movies, things are being kept tightly under wraps. Be that as it may, Zoe Saldana has shared our first glimpse at Gamora in the upcoming sequel via some behind-the-scenes images from her Instagram. Only one of the pictures has her in the makeup and, well, she looks like Gamora. No big changes there, which seems to fit into the whole "if it ain't broke don't fix it" folder. We'll have to wait until next year to actually see how the character evolves though.
