Sequel, Franchise | featured news

Star Wars fans have more than just Episodes 7, 8 and 9 to look forward to. Disney CEO Bob Iger said at the annual shareholders meeting in Phoenix on Wednesday that the company is developing "some standalone movies" featuring Star Wars characters.

“Dark Knight Rises” enthusiasts, start your engines. Three camouflaged Batmobile Tumblers drove through the streets of Pittsburgh over the weekend, where “The Dark Knight Rises” is filming. In case you are a non-nerd, the “Tumbler” is a military vehicle modified for the Caped Crusader by Lucius Fox (Morgan Freeman) in 2005’s “Batman Begins.”

Here's some irony: "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part 2," took down "The Dark Knight" for the biggest opening weekend in box office history, but before that film could play in theaters, moviegoers were treated to the first trailer for the next Batman film, "The Dark Knight Rises," as if to say, don't worry, the caped crusader will be back.

Harry Potter fans lined up for the opening of “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2,” marking the end of a 13-year saga.
