Leaked ‘Star Wars VII’ Concept Art Will Stun — If You Peek

A whole bunch of concept art from Star Wars: Episode VII leaked online today. Assuming these images are legit — and I cannot vouch for their authenticity — but if they are real, they hint that this movie may be the Star Wars flick fans deserve in the wake of the disastrous I-III trilogy.

If you have the midi-chlorians (sorry) to forge ahead, follow the leap to see some truly inspirational images. If, however, you are spoiler-phobic, then get thee to a galaxy far, far away from this post. Seriously, if you don’t want Episode VII ruined — even potentially a little tiny bit, look away! Your heart will be broken to have such awesome images spoiled. You have been warned!

This Means War: Iron Man to Crash ‘Captain America 3’

Robert Downey Jr. will be joint Avengers castmate Chris Evans in Captain America 3 — but the visit will not exactly be friendly. In fact, it’s going to lead to war. Civil War, to be exact!

12th Doctor Comic Book Debuts at NYCC!

Titan Comics is debuting its latest title, Doctor Who: The Twelfth Doctor, at this weekend’s New York Comic Con, but the rest of the world will have to take the slow path and wait for the Oct. 15 release date.

As a tease, Titan released a two-page preview of the comic:

The art looks pretty good to me. It’s so difficult to capture likenesses from so many different angles.

What’s Going on With ‘Mummy on the Orient Express’?

This weekend’s new episode of DOCTOR WHO, “Mummy on the Orient Express,” is supposed to be very scary — but it’s also something of a mystery: Is the Doctor (Peter Capaldi) traveling without Clara (Jenna Coleman)? The promotional images for the story notably include no shots of Clara on the train. And we all know she sent him packing at the end of last week’s “Kill the Moon,” so is he off sulking?

Hit the jump for a collection of photos from “Mummy on the Orient Express,” featuring guest turns by comedian Frank Skinner (as the engineer chap) and singer Foxes (as the… er, singer) — and some intriguing descriptions  of the storyline.

‘Dredd’ Gets a Sequel Series — Online (and for Free)

The 2012 box-office misfire (but fan-adored) Dredd is a getting a sequel this fall — but probably not the one you expected.

Dredd executive producer Adi Shankar has just revealed that he spent the past two years secretly creating an online spin-off miniseries centering on Judge Dredd’s worst enemies, the Dark Judges: Death, Fire, Fear and Mortis. In case you’re unfamiliar, the Dark Judges hail from a parallel universe and believe life itself is a criminal offense!

TWIN PEAKS Gets Official Green Light at Showtime

A sequel series to TWIN PEAKS, one of the greatest-yet-flawed TV serials of all time, has officially been approved by premium cable network Showtime. It will be set in the present and continue the original storyline 20 years later.

All nine episodes will be written by original creators David Lynch and Mark Frost, with Lynch directing each installment. There is no word on casting, but it would hard to imagine to any sequel without Kyle MacLachlan‘s Special Agent Dale Cooper. And Laura Palmer (Sheryl Lee) did promise Dale she would see him again in 25 years (2015 will mark 25 years since the series debuted) back when he visited the Black Lodge:

The revival will go into production soon and premiere in 2016.
