I said once Marvel had some news I would talk about it, so here we go!  It is official Benedict Cumberbatch is Doctor Strange.  I really like Cumberbatch, but I have a hard time envisioning him as the Master Magician.  Still Marvel has been on such a role lately it is hard for me to question them too much.  We will get to see him suit up in two Thanksgivings, or November 2016 for those outside of the good ‘ol USA.  Now to TV news!

Marvel and Netflix have found their Jessica Jones the superhero set’s private eye!  She will be played by Krysten Ritter.  You may remember her from Don’t Trust The B In Apartment 23, or maybe not since it was canceled.  Still, she is talented and funny, so she seems like a good choice.  Next up:

Mike Colter from the new Halo show is rumored to be the new Luke Cage for Marvel and Netflix’s 3rd show after Daredevil and Jessica Jones.  I don’t know if they could have picked anyone more perfect for the role.  Even if this one is just a rumor it needs to come true because he looks exactly like I picture Luke Cage in my mind.

If feels good to be talking about Marvel.  I hope this Marvel news train keeps on rolling.  We are still waiting on that Ant-Man trailer!
