HeroBlend #64: Comic-Con In Review, The Batman And Looking Ahead To Marvel's Phase 5

Welcome to HeroBlend #64! This week, Gabe, Adrienne and Eric will give their thoughts on the many reveals from San Diego Comic-Con, talk about when The Batman might start filming and what might be coming in Marvel's Phase 5! First, though, we'll get into some of the week's top news items and talk (yes, again) about Avengers: Endgame and Spider-Man: Far From Home box office, HBO's latest Watchmen trailer, the exciting developments for this year's Arrow-verse crossover event (Crisis on Infinite Earths) on The CW and more!

We'll also get into a rumor about when The Batman might start filming, what it might mean about where the script and casting process are, whether or not it can still hit its release date and a bit more.

Next, we'll get into the highlights from Comic-Con. A lot of cool stuff was announced last Saturday when Kevin Feige took the stage to finally fill us in on all of Marvel's Phase 4 details. There were some true surprises in there, which will be coming our way over the next couple of years, but Feige also teased Phase 5, without giving us any concrete information about what was coming and when. So, we're going to give you our biggest surprises from the convention and talk over some details about what was revealed. Then, we will speculate on what Phase 5 could have in store for us.

Now, sit back and relax, folks, because this is one chat you're not going to want to miss. Ready to dive in? Great! Listen for yourself above!
