Welcome back to The Rundown, our daily breakdown on comic news stories we missed from the previous day. Have a link to share? Email our team at rundown@multiversitycomics.com.
– The Gambit movie is a thing that continues to happen and Deadline has reported that Lea Seydoux will be playing Belladonna Boudreaux (Gambit’s childhood love and a major part of his origin story) in the film. Which makes sense because, y’know, she is French.
– In news that sends me into a cold sweat, “Secret Wars” #6 has been delayed, pushing the subsequent issues back a bit. That means this event will have lasted from May 6 until October 13. In the distance, you can hear Jess, James and I all dying.
– People continue to love The Walking Dead as evidenced by the fact that the spinoff , Fear The Walking Dead premier to 10.1 million viewers. That’s pretty dang impressive, I gotta admit.
– Thanks to some pics from fans on Facebook, ComicsAlliance has a look at what Arseface and Cassidy will look like in the AMC Preacher. Not much to say here as you can’t tell much from the pictures, but Arseface certainly does look he has an arse for a face.
– Excited for Jeff Lemire and Humberto Ramos’ “Extraordinary X-Men”? Well, check out the cover for the second issue over at CBR. Unless you’re one of those people who hate young Jean Grey…
– You know that whole “no killing, no guns” rule that Batman is so famed for? Well, this video has a pretty funny look at all the times Batman has killed in his live action films. Check it out!
