10 Best Moments from IGN’s Comic-Con Live Stream
That's a wrap on San Diego Comic-Con 2019, but if you missed all the fun from the biggest entertainment nerd event of the year, we have you covered. In addition to recapping the biggest news of Comic-Con (plus the madness that was Marvel Studios' Phase 4 announcement) and every trailer released at SDCC, we also are spotlighting the most fun and most informative interviews that happened at IGN's Comic-Con live show.
The Future of the Avengers: Kevin Feige Teases a New-Look Team
Head of Marvel Studios, Kevin Feige, has hinted that the next class of Avengers will introduce some new characters to the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
The film producer confirmed in an interview with MTV News that the Avengers will indeed return with a "very different team" in the future, even though an ensemble cross-over film hasn't officially appeared on any upcoming calendars for the studio.
Feige revealed that the next generation of Earth's Mightiest Heroes would feature some familiar faces, together with some new characters that haven't made their big screen debut yet.
"It will be a very different team than we've seen before. That's what Endgame was all about," he said, speaking about the new Avengers roster. "It will be a very different incarnation of the team with some people you've already met and some people we haven't met yet."
Warsaw Is a Grimly Dark, Horribly Factual WW2 Tactics Game
Warsaw is a game in which you play through the entirety of the Warsaw Uprising. There's a very good chance you haven't heard of the Warsaw Uprising. That's probably because, among the tales of victory-against-all-odds that tend to make up western World War 2 school textbooks, it doesn't quite fit in.
In 1944, as the Nazis' grip on power began to slip, the Polish underground resistance mounted a huge operation to liberate Warsaw. After a 63-day battle across the city, the resistance lost, with at least 150,000 civilians killed, and much of the city razed to the ground in retaliation. According to Warsaw producer Krzysztof Paplinski, asking those who do know about the Uprising will generally result in one of two (very different) responses; either it was a glorious act of doomed heroism, or a futile, irresponsible way to get yet more young Poles killed as the war came to a close.

‘I Didn’t Want To Make A Bad John Wick Game’ Says John Wick Hex Creator
The man helming John Wick Hex, Mike Bithell, has admitted he was "cautious" at first about making a John Wick game.
Speaking in a featurette about combat design, he said that when publisher Good Shepherd first came to him with the idea of turning the film franchise into a game, "I didn't believe it at first. I'm a massive action movie fan.
"I was very cautious because I didn’t want to make a bad John Wick game. This is important. This is a franchise that matters".
The John Wick series has made nearly $500 million at the box office, with John Wick 3 Parabellum holding second place for Keanu Reeves’ best opening weekend behind The Matrix Reloaded.
Creating something for such a broad and dedicated fanbase requires attention to detail. Bithell Studios decided "we wanted to build a game and an approach to playing that was completely focused on being John Wick".
Runtime for DC’s Joker Movie Revealed
Update: The film's runtime for Joker has been released by tiff, coming in at 122 minutes – or just over 2 hours.
Original story follows:
Three official photos from the Joker origin movie have been released, showcasing Arthur Fleck's transformation from downtrodden comedian to Gotham City super-villain.
The first image in the series shares a look at the tormented stand-up comic seemingly bursting into uncontrollable hysterics on a bus, surrounded by concerned passengers; whereas the subsequent photos chronicle his descent into darkness, with the character haphazardly painting his tear-stained face before clowning around in the city as his villainous alter ego.
